¶ Score One Announces Increase in Production Capability...



LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 1, 2000--Advanced Technology
Holding Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Score One Inc.
(OTCBB:SCRO), announced today the purchase of a Hot-air leveling
machine to meet increasing demand for telecommunication and
computer-related Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).
Management anticipates a significant increase in new orders for
PCBs, as the new equipment has the ability to boost productivity by at
least 10%, while improving product quality and reducing delivery time
proportionally.
The company significantly increased Shareholders' Equity by
investing approximately $600,000 in income-producing assets during the
last reporting quarter, $400,000 of which was applied to the purchase
of the Hot-air leveling machine.
Roy Ho, president and CEO of Score One, commented: "Quality and
service are the essence of our success in this competitive market.
Increased production capability and reduced delivery time afford Score
One that essential edge over the competition, while maximizing
investment returns and shareholders' value."

Recent Announcements Include:

-- Net income increased 8% to $1.38 million as compared to the
same period ended Aug. 31, 1999, while gross profit margin
increased to 32.4%.

-- Total earning per share of $.07 for the three-month period
ended Aug. 31, 2000 and a 33% increase in shareholder equity
to $6.2 million.

-- $.10 per share earnings for the five-month period ended
May 31, 2000, and shareholder equity increase of 52% from
$3.19 million to $4.84 million. Shareholders' Equity rose
95 percent in the nine-month period ended Aug. 31, 2000, while

Ltd. ("Blue-Tech"), a joint venture with the Pao Li Group of
Jiangsu Province in the People's Republic of China (PRC).
Blue-Tech plans to manufacture Multi-media Home Personal
