Analysis of Results:

Operating income in 2016 was impacted by a $1,006,000 write-off of assets associated with our acquisition of Innovative Automation. Revenues in 2016 were impacted by delayed projects, an inherent component of the material handling business.

Investment gains or losses reflect realized gains or losses in the company's investment portfolio.

Paragon utilizes pre-tax operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, in its analysis of financial results. Paragon Technologies defines pre-tax operating earnings outside of the investment gains/losses of the Company.

On March 1, 2017 Paragon acquired SED International de Colombia, S.A.S. Paragon expects to report consolidated results inclusive of SED Colombia with our 2017 first quarter results.
