EYI Industries Announces 2006 Full-Year Financial Results

2007 Financial Results Should Compare Favorably With 2006


BURNABY, British Columbia, April 5, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- EYI Industries, Inc. ("EYI") (OTCBB:EYII), announced financial results for the 2006 full year ended December 31, 2006.

Sales for 2006 were $4,131,437 compared to $4,980,408 for 2005. Gross profit after costs of goods sold and commission expense was $1,354,956, or 32.8 percent of sales for the 2006 full year, compared with $1,883,507, or 37.8 percent of sales for 2005. Net loss was $7,105,759 for 2006, compared to $4,262,010 for 2005.

Jay Sargeant, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "As you may have seen Monday morning with the release of our 2006 10-KSB, our financial results were very disappointing. As the President, Chief Executive Officer, and largest shareholder I share in everyone's frustration. With all this said, I believe there are reasons to be optimistic about our future. The Company's business outlook is improving primarily as a result of the gaining customer acceptance of our new Ultimate ME(2) product, which significantly reduces vehicle emissions and improves gas mileage. There were some initial production delays when we launched this product in the 2006 fourth quarter, but these problems are behind us. We are signing many new distributors and are pleased that we are beginning to be recognized by impact multi-marketing groups.

"While we are excited about Ultimate ME(2), we are not losing focus of our other products. We are continuing to work hard with the China Electronics Import and Export South China Corporation ("CEIEC") to market and sell our Code Blue Water Filters, CALORAD and PROSOTEINE products to customers in China. There have been delays in selling these products in China, but we are optimistic that we will begin to ship products throughout China in 2007.

"I am pleased with how the year has started. We have a portfolio of products that offer consumers solutions to many mainstream problems such as obesity, high gas prices and unsafe drinking water. We have an excellent infrastructure in place as our sales begin to ramp up and I am optimistic that the Company is well-positioned to post a turnaround in its financial results and look forward to sharing this anticipated success with investors in the coming months," concluded Mr. Sargeant.
