For fiscal 2010, sales were $1.69 billion, compared with $1.49 billion in 2009, up 13.4 percent. Profit for the year was $150.4 million.

David Sandler, President and CEO, said: “By investing in our Company throughout the downturn, we have taken advantage of a unique opportunity to grow our business at an accelerated pace as market conditions return to more normalized levels. Our investment program has produced a large and growing value gap between MSC and our smaller, less well competitors that has contributed to our momentum and that we will continue to leverage going forward.”
