During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014, we established a reserve of $128,000 for slow moving finished goods inventory that was manufactured in prior years. The majority of the reserve related to components such as, plastic bottles, spray triggers, miscellaneous plastics, and numerous corrugated cardboard configurations. No reserve was established during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015.

In addition, during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014, we received $20,000 from the sale of inventory which was previously reserved during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2013. The $20,000 gain on sale of inventory sold during the prior fiscal year is reflected in the other income (expense) section of the consolidated statement of operations.
