Brown said, "We are pleased with our fiscal 2012 results. We increased sales, increased customers and reduced our interest expense by $9.4 million. Our success in the current year is due to our valued customers responding favorably to our marketing efforts which have emphasized quality and value and has attracted new customers in fiscal 2012. Our results reflect the benefit of our debt refinancing last year which has significantly reduced our interest expense. The reduction in interest expense is just one measure that we've taken to reduce cost which has allowed us to keep prices low to our customers. During these tough economic times, low prices and value are even more important as our customers continue to face challenges to their home budgets."
