Commenting on the results, ETC President Dean Danner said, The results include a one time charge of $95,272 related to the closing of our Atlanta office. With the continued lack of spending in our market segment ETC determined that the costs associated with an office in the Atlanta area were no longer an effective use of resources. Functions previous carried out in the Atlanta office have been moved allowing ETC to continue to provide quality service our customers.
