MATAWAN, NJ–(Marketwire – May 4, 2011) – PacificHealth Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: PHLI), a leading nutrition company, today reported a profit of $27,230, or $0.00
per share, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011 versus a net loss of
($269,230), or ($0.02) per share, for the same period in 2010.

Revenue increased to $1,731,611 in the first quarter of 2011 from
$1,650,265 for the same period in 2010. The sports performance portion of
our business increased approximately $160,000, or 10%. General and
administrative expenses decreased approximately $237,000 in the quarter
ended March 31, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Fred Duffner, President and CEO of PacificHealth Laboratories said, “I am
extremely pleased with the first quarter results. Net income would have
been even higher as it still included a small amount of restructuring costs
from 2010. To place our results in perspective, the last time the Company
showed an operating profit in the first quarter was seven years ago. First
quarter revenue does not include any substantial sales of our two new
products, 2ND SURGE® and ACCEL RECOVER™, which officially launched
beginning April 1.”

Penny Stocks are stocks traded for under $2 and they represent the small cap companies. They trade on the OTCBB so you will not find them on the major stock exchanges. They are very cheap stocks and normally come for businesses needing capital. They are a very risky investment as the business can go under and leave you with a stock worth nothing. However that being said penny stock trading can be a great money maker, and there are numerous traders who make 6 figures and more from them each year.

The best reasons to trade in penny stocks are the fact that they do not require a large initial investment, meaning that they are an affordable investment for many. Penny stocks are cheap. For example if you were to buy 1000 shares in a company with shares at 10 cents, you would only require an investment of $100, whereas if the shares cost $5 you would require an investment of $5000. Penny stocks also have the potential of huge gains, and have been known to rise as much as 1000% daily. Therefore your $100 investment can be worth $1000. This is very unlikely to happen to other stocks from large cap businesses.
