DELSON, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - March 24, 2009) - Goodfellow Inc. (TSX:GDL - News) announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended February 28, 2009. Consolidated sales reached $91.5 million compared to $99.2 million a year ago. Results from operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 resulted in a net loss of $0.8 million or $0.09 per share compared to a net income of $38 thousand or $0.00 per share a year ago. The results from operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 excludes a non recurring gain of $3.1 million or $0.37 per share which represents the revaluation at fair value of fixed assets exchanged resulting from the expropriation of part of our Delson facility. The expropriation file was closed on February 25, 2009 and concludes almost 4 years of negotiations with the Governmental Authorities. Consequently net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 reached $2.4 million or $0.28 per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Major efforts were expended to reduce costs in all areas of the business. Personnel head-count is down by 130 versus a year ago and most other costs were down 10% or more. With the weakened economy bad debts were running at double last year's levels but these were somewhat balanced by reduced financial costs due to the substantially reduced receivables and inventories.

For the 6 months ended February 28, 2009, Consolidated Sales reached $202.4 million compared to $217.3 million for the same period last year. Net results from operations for the 6 months ended February 28, 2009 was $0.3 million or $0.03 per share compared to $1.9 million or $0.22 per share. Including the non recurring gain of $3.1 million or $0.37 per share related to the revaluation at fair value, net income for the 6 months of fiscal 2009 reached $3.4 million or $0.40 per share.

"2009 continues to be a challenging time for both the company and the overall world economy. Your management team continues to be preoccupied with ensuring the company's overall health and positioning it to weather the storms ahead." said Richard Goodfellow, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Nevertheless, we remain cautiously optimistic for the spring and summer quarters, the time when traditionally the Company has made the majority of its operating profits."

Goodfellow Inc. is one of eastern Canada's largest independent re-manufacturers and distributors of lumber and hardwood flooring products. Goodfellow shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol GDL.
