In other Schick news, the Long Island City, NY, company reported on April 14 that it expects revenues for its fourth quarter (end-March) to be between $12 million and $13 million. The figures are much higher than the $5.4 million in sales Schick recorded in the same period last year, but are short of expectations due to the late delivery of components from a supplier, which prevented Schick from fulfilling orders worth between $2 million and $3 million.
