Cypress Industries Posts Record Growth in 2004 and Q1, 2005

Cypress Industries Quadruples Revenue While Demand for Electronics, Plastics and Metal Manufacturing Soars

Austin, TX, May 31, 2005

Cypress Industries, an Austin-based electronics, plastics and metal products manufacturer, today announced record revenue growth in 2004 and Q1, 2005, driven largely by growth in its electronics business, the launch of its Industrial Division and new plastics and tooling manufacturing capabilities. Additionally, the acquisition of hundreds of new customers, combined with substantial follow-on business from existing customers, contributed to a 400 percent increase in revenue over 2003 and additional significant increases in Q1, 2005. During the period of January – May 2005, Cypress Industries experienced nearly 50 percent growth over the same period last year.

“Quadrupling our revenue in 2004 illustrates that customers realize the value of our unique combination of technical prowess and problem solving skills,” said Cypress Industries CEO, Tom Lonsdale. “We've broadened our customer base, introduced the Industrial Division and added advanced design, engineering and manufacturing expertise to support the growing demand from our customers. With a recent space expansion and added capabilities, we’re continuing on that same growth trajectory in 2005.”

Fueled by the revenue growth, Cypress Industries recently acquired additional space adjacent to its original Pond Springs Road headquarters. The company currently occupies 14,500 square feet of office and manufacturing space which it uses to perform low- to moderate-volume prototype and production runs before transitioning products to its higher-volume facilities in China. Cypress Industries currently employs 18 full-time people in its Austin facility and has plans to hire an additional ten people - five in Austin, and five in its China sales office.
