Specialty retailer Kuhlman Company Inc announced that, at its 2006 annual meeting, its shareholders had reelected the following six persons to serve as directors of the company: Scott Kuhlman, Luis Padilla, Jon Sabes, David Ferris, Daniel Rindos and Christopher Larson.

In addition, company shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the company's 2005 Stock Option Plan.

At the annual meeting and in response to questions, the company indicated that it expected fiscal 2006 revenues would double from fiscal 2005 revenues, and that the company expected that it would be cash flow neutral by the end of fiscal 2006. It also indicated that its financial presentation in future filings would better reflect the gross margins it earns on merchandise sold.

In addition, the company has made progress in reviewing and modifying its current real estate portfolio for its new store metrics. Its five-year plan calls to reengage store growth in 2007, and with that, it predicts profitability in 2008. Profitability in 2008 is based on an assumption of 60 to 80 stores in operation. As part of its growth plan, the company indicated that it will need to raise approx. $6 to $8 million in capital to open additional stores.

Kuhlman is a specialty retailer and wholesale provider of both men's and women's apparel, offered under the Kuhlman brand through company-owned retail stores and under private labels through other large retailers.
