The company significantly improved its total capital by 1 million dollars and improved its cash position by 100% in just 6 months.

The company's aggressive new product development program and its national advertising programs in Readers Digest, People Magazine, U.S. News and World Report and Parade have significantly increased revenues and margins during the first 6 months. Medifast has already surpassed last year's 12-month profit results in the first 6 months.

Chairman MacDonald says, "The market will eventually catch up with our superb operating results and profitability. We now meet the requirements for re-listing on the NASDAQ with the exception of stock price. The company has achieved 11 consecutive quarters of profitability and improved total capital or net equity by 4.5 million since October 1999. We are proud of the dedication and professionalism of the Medifast employees and management team, who have worked so diligently to achieve these results."
