Importantly, Cetek made a significant advancement during this past quarter, to become established in the nanotechnology field. The Bush administration has signed a $4 billion appropriation for nanotechnology. This is an exciting, innovative technology with far-reaching potential applications. Nanotechnology is considered to be the basis for the next industrial growth. Cetek is well positioned in this field, and continued development and progress in this area should be fast and aggressive, both for the company and the industry.

Larger sintering furnaces, in the ceramic area, will come on line the first quarter of 2004, hence increasing available capacity by threefold. Having this increased capacity will have a favorable impact on the response time to customers. So far, Cetek has been able to maintain all shipments on schedule.

Cetek's primary customer from England, for whom we are building special furnaces, has issued Cetek Technologies more orders for these large furnaces. This product has generated strong demand in the United States and overseas. Substantial sales for this product line are expected throughout 2004 and into 2005.

Also, Cetek Technologies is proud to announce it has initiated its stock buyback program for the benefit of the shareholders. No information will be disclosed until it is completed, and no specific time limit has been set.

Cetek Technologies Inc.'s CEO, Fayiz Hilal, stated, "I am pleased with the quarterly results and very optimistic about Cetek's business landscape and I think it will be another rewarding and profitable year. I thank all shareholders for their continuous support. We will endeavor to keep shareholders informed of our efforts in developing Cetek into a significant player in this industry. We believe these recent events will lead to increased shareholder value."
