It's unfortunate that they are always late with their filings however I strongly feel the business is doing well and they maybe profitable this time. Communication is very important during times like this. Here is a perfect article that SRRY should read:
The Best of Times, the Worst of Times
Generating Good Press During Bad Markets
By: Dian Griesel
When markets get rough, people tend to pull in. Public-relations budgets are often the first line item that gets slashed, but especially during downturned markets, it is more important that ever to provide buyers with the information they need in order to find your organization and learn more about your services and products.
By definition, public companies need to stay in the public eye. Management teams of smaller public companies are often frustrated with the lack of liquidity and daily dollar trading volume of their stock (the price of the stock multiplied by the daily volume). Achieving that consistent daily liquidity of an equity is the only way that a company can ever achieve a price that truly represents the intrinsic value in the company. Attracting the attention of serious long-term shareholders is essential for providing a company with stability for growth. It is reaching this equation (volume=stability+growth) that allows share price to ultimately rise to the level that truly reflects the inherent worth of a publicly traded company.
The goal of all public-relations campaigns, therefore, should be to accomplish one or more of the following objectives: drive trading volume, generate sales of a company's products or services, and create partnerships.
A consistent stream of high-quality, fact-driven news releases can help accomplish these goals by branding your company at vital market player, presenting executive leadership as industry experts, and reinforcing the image of the company as a trusted information resource......
The Sounds Of Silence
In a relentless 24/7 media culture, silence can send a ruinous message. Lack of news can create an inaccurate impression that a company is stagnant or that it has little industry dialogue to contribute.....read more in the April 2008 issue of Equities Magazine

OVERVIEW
Sancon Resources Recovery, Inc. is an industrial waste recycling company with operations based in Australia, Hong Kong and China. Sancon currently exports more than 25,000 tons of recycled industrial waste material annually to its processing partners and manufacturers in China. Sancon's main operations and services include industrial eco-friendly consulting, collection and reprocess of recyclable materials such as plastic, cardboard, and paper before its re-entry into manufacture cycles as raw materials. The use of recycled material is both environmentally friendly and is a key part of today's competitive manufacturing process to lower costs. As China gains global manufacturing dominance and oil price soars, Chinese manufacturers are increasingly turning to recycled materials to lower costs, resulting tremendous demand for recycled materials import. The major markets for Sancon are Chinese manufacturers located mainly in the provinces of Guangdong, Zhejiang and Fujian in China. PLAN OF OPERATION During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:
o We intend to continue with our marketing strategies to deliver our products in China;
o Along with the continued plastic materials products we are now processing, we are also developing to process other materials, such as glasses, electronic materials.
o During the next twelve months, the Company expects to set up new processing center in China.
o During the next twelve months, the Company is planning to raise additional US$1-2 million cash to facilitate our processing capacity. The capital will be used to some or all of the following activities: 1) acquisition of other companies running similar business in China; 2) purchase of new equipment to satisfy increasing new type of materials requirements; 3) marketing and general administrative expenses for new launched operation of China. We may raise such capital through issuing our common stocks or warrants.
Our aggressive expansion plan will be replied on such capital support. We can not assure the successful result of fund raising. As such, we may not execute our initial business strategy or plan as expected, and furthermore, our competitors may stand in a better position than us, which results in an adverse effect on our business, although we believe that currently, even without such funds, we can still run a healthy business within our already occupied markets.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments: allowance for doubtful accounts; income taxes; stock-based compensation; asset impairment.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Noted below are brief descriptions of the product or service revenues that the Company recognizes in the financial statements contained herein.
SALE OF GOODS
Revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assess the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. We initially record a provision for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience, and then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider: (i) the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable; (iv) our historical provision for doubtful accounts;
(v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customer's industry as well as general economic conditions, among other factors.
INCOME TAXES
We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS 109 prescribes the use of the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance, or increase or decrease this allowance in a period, we increase or decrease our income tax provision in our statement of operations. If any of our estimates of our prior period taxable income or loss prove to be incorrect, material differences could impact the amount and timing of income tax benefits or payments for any period. In addition, as a result of the significant change in the Company's ownership, the Company's future use of its existing net operating losses may be limited. The Company operates in several countries. As a result, we are subject to numerous domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions and tax agreements and treaties among the various taxing authorities. Our operations in these jurisdictions are taxed on various bases: income before taxes, deemed profits and withholding taxes based on revenue. The calculation of our tax liabilities involves consideration of uncertainties in the application and interpretation of complex tax regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across our global operations.
We recognize potential liabilities and record tax liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. The tax liabilities are reflected net of realized tax loss carry forwabds. We adjust these reserves upon specific events; however, due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is different from our current estimate of the tax liabilities. If our estimate of tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate assessment, an additional charge to expense would result. If payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be less than the recorded amounts, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when the contingency has been resolved and the liabilities are no longer necessary.
Changes in tax laws, regulations, agreements and treaties, foreign currency exchange restrictions or our level of operations or profitability in each taxing jurisdiction could have an impact upon the amount of income taxes that we provide during any given year.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
During December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123". This statement amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price of the related option. The Company has adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 in its financial reports for the year ended December 31, 2005 and has adopted the interim disclosure provisions in its financial reports for the subsequent periods.
Effective January 1, 2006, the beginning of Sancon's first fiscal quarter of 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123R, using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the consolidated financial statements for granted stock options, since the related purchase discounts exceeded the amount allowed under SFAS 123R for non-compensatory treatment. Compensation expense recognized included: the estimated expense for stock options granted on and subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R; and the estimated expense for the portion vesting in the period for options granted prior to, but not vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123. Results for prior periods have not been restated, as provided for under the modified-prospective method.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company did not issue or make provision through the issuance of stock options to employees and directors.
For other items paid for by common stock, the value of the transaction is determined by the value of the goods or services received, measured at the time of the transaction. The corresponding stock value, used to determine the number of share to be issued, is the value of the average price for the 20 to 30 days prior to the transaction date.
ASSET IMPAIRMENT
We periodically evaluate the carrying value of other long-lived assets, including, but not limited to, property and equipment and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Significant estimates are utilized to calculate expected future cash flows utilized in impairment analyses. We also utilize judgment to determine other factors within fair value analyses, including the applicable discount rate.

Nice to see the New Board Member purchase company stock above the market. That shows great loyalty to the company. I know the boys in the mid-west who took positions around $2 are smiling today. :)
All I'm saying is David or the company should be in constant communication with the street...lack of that will loose interest.
Are you stilling following this company?
Must be happy if you picked this up under $3.00
What are your thoughts on the company? They need a good IR program.
The stock acutally traded and closed up today...hope there is good news coming out soon.
Daivid doesn't want to spend the money on good IR...He is too busy trying to keep up with his own putting Jack no the back burner.
Jack Chen is the acutal operator...David does the deals hoever is very frugal.
MERI is taking a tax loss
ISCR news that was posted is from 2005...where are the executives now??
Thanks...here are some for you
SFSH
IMYN
They don't have the funds for M&A.
Hey it can only go up from here.
ISCR hasn't even traded today
I understand where you are coming from however if you look at the chart it only took about 8 months to get down here. I think 2008 will be a good year providing the fact they have good IR and some good news. They need to gain long termers not penny flippers.
Ah I was right .04
ISCR may close up again today .04
So what is ISCR going to do with that line of credit? Do you really think with PR that stock will fall?
Geez..is this ever going to hit .01
