MINNEAPOLIS, May 22, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- HEII | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- HEI, Inc. (Pink Sheets: HEII | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) (http://www.heii.com) today announced its financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2009, which ended April 4, 2009.

Net sales for the first quarter were $8,883,000 compared to $9,183,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Company generated net income of $268,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2009 compared to a net loss of ($440,000) for the same period of fiscal year 2008.

HEI CEO, Mark B. Thomas, remarked: "The improvements and restructuring that we have done over the past two years in Victoria and Tempe and over the past six months in Boulder have positioned us so that we can better deal with the current uncertainties in the marketplace. However, the current economic conditions are having an impact on the demand for our customer's products along with substantial pricing pressures for the products that we build. We continue to work with our current customers and to pursue new customer opportunities in an effort to reduce the impact on HEI and its operations and to position the company for growth."

HEI provides its customers with a single point of contact that can take an idea from inception to a fully functional and cost effective product utilizing innovative design solutions and by the application of state-of-the-art materials, processes and manufacturing capabilities.
