News for 'SEIH' - (S3 Investment Company Announces CEO Trip to China; Market Conference Call Planned for May 18)
TEMECULA, Calif., May 10, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- S3 Investment Company (OTCBB:SEIH) today announced that Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Chris Bickel has begun a three-week trip to China in support of the company's SINO UJE and Redwood Capital portfolio investments.
Bickel commented: "The focus of this trip is to assist our two China-related investments in expanding revenues and increasing portfolio value for S3 Investments. This has been our overarching goal for the company since current management came in eight months ago. While we have created real value in our portfolio where none had previously existed, growing that value is still our primary focus."
During his trip to China, Bickel will participate in a market conference call with investors to discuss the company's 10-Q Quarterly Report with financial results, expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday, May 16, 2005. The conference call has been scheduled for Wednesday, May 18, at 12 p.m. (noon) EDT. Those interested in participating should dial 913-981-4902 or 800-811-7286 five to 10 minutes prior to the scheduled start time and reference S3 Investment Company.
Bickel also stated: "During our time in China, we will meet with Redwood's first client, Dalian Fushi, in anticipation of executing a definitive agreement for Redwood's investment banking and other associated services, as well as finalizing Dalian Fushi's audit, which is required for the reverse merger process in the United States. We also intend to spend a full day in the Dalian Fushi factory, in order to gain intimate knowledge of their production capabilities and meeting with key personnel.
"Beyond Dalian Fushi, we have scheduled factory inspections and negotiations with six potential new clients for Redwood Capital. The facility and factory inspections are the final elements of our internal due diligence and investigation process for perspective clients. These are companies that have made it significantly through our pipeline and we are confident that two to four will make it all of the way and be 'gold standard' clients for Redwood Capital.
"In addition to our Redwood Capital business, we have scheduled a number of meetings on behalf of SINO UJE suppliers, including GreCon, Process Sensors Corporation, Aeris, PlastControl, and Ulrich. For GreCon, we are looking to close three separate business opportunities that would translate into sales for SINO. There are several Process Sensor projects that are in various stages of the sales process and we will meet with a number of these potential customers. Our Aeris supplier will be in China, and we anticipate moving this fairly new product offering forward. We have scheduled meetings with potential customers for PlastControl products and will visit several hospitals that are using Ulrich products. There are 4-5 potential new customers for the Ulrich product line, and we believe that we will close a number of new orders during this visit.
"We are pleased with the revenue growth we have seen from our Chinese operations in the relatively short period since S3 Investments acquired them, and we expect to see continued increases in both revenues and bottom-line profits. By meeting face-to-face with current customers and clients, as well as pursuing opportunities with additional potential customers, both SINO UJE and Redwood are expected to foster long-term revenue expansion and greater value for S3 Investment Company."
