BAB, Inc. Reports Profit for 3rd Quarter 2007

BAB, Inc. (OTCBB:BABB), operator and franchisor of Big Apple Bagels, My Favorite Muffin and Brewster’s Coffee, today announced the financial results for its third quarter ended August 31, 2007, reporting net income of $237,000.

For the quarter ended August 31, 2007, BAB had revenues of $982,000 and net income of $237,000, or $0.03 per share, versus revenues of $945,000 and restated net income of $242,000, or $0.03 per share, for the same quarter last year.

The Company had to restate its quarter ending August 31, 2006, for comparability purposes as a result of adopting SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108), which resulted in decreasing selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ending August 31, 2006, by $5,000 with a corresponding increase in net income of $5,000. This had no impact on earnings per share. In addition, the Company recorded a $9,000 non-cash expense in the quarter ended August 31, 2007, for adoption of SFAS 123 (R) related to stock options.

For the nine months ended August 31, 2007, BAB had revenues of $2,970,000 and net income of $598,000, or $0.08 per share, versus revenues of $2,970,000 and restated net income of $624,000, or $0.09 per share for the same period in 2006. In addition, the Company recorded a $26,000 non-cash expense for the nine months ended August 31, 2007, for adoption of SFAS 123 (R) related to stock options.

Total operating expenses for the quarter ended August 31, 2007, were $758,000 versus $717,000 in 2006. Total operating expenses for the nine months ended August 31, 2007, were $2,412,000 versus $2,357,000 in 2006.
