“While our operating results have been adversely impacted by the economic downturn starting in the fourth quarter of 2008, during the second quarter we began to see some signs of improvement,” said Harry Wachtel, president of AutoInfo, based in Boca Raton, Fla. “As the economy continues its recovery, we believe that the cost cutting measures that we have implemented and our ongoing agent recruiting efforts will have a positive impact on our results of operations.”
