Email from Doug
(kind of along the same lines as previous posts)
Dear xxxxx,
Great note...when I do e-mail folks I am very careful not to give any info
that has not already been released...with respect to Company business. I
have been enforcing the rules around here that all relevant info be in the
form of a PR or letter to ALL shareholders so that no one person has info
the is not known publically. Please keep in mind though that at times folks
do need clarification on our products and services and I have no problem
explaining a release further. If someone posts this others should realize it
is not new info. just explanations to help people understand what we do.
I can not comment on other business at this time without updating ALL....
I have attached an e-mail which I have sent out to investors as to why the
#'s are significant IMHO.
But we are very cautious and folks should realize if it does not come in
the form of a PR or note to all from me then one should question the
validity of the note....all to often I hear "I just got off the phone with
Doug" well I don't receive many calls from SH and at this time I am
extremely busy and unless someone wants to buy something or needs help in a
herd somewhere in the world I am to busy ...I call it "CEO TIME" and right
now its CEO TIME as I have a Company to run and build for the 10's of
thousands of SH's we have...and those looking to invest in (IMHO) a great
Company with an upside potential which at the moment is super.
I am indebted to the SH's who help disseminate info on this Company and
update me on our competitors etc. they are IMO the window to the world and
as mentioned below we have built a great platform to move forward with.
I thank you again for your comments and help you give to our new investors.
Warmly,
Douglas
Thank you very much for your gracious note of confidence. Our team worked
very hard to prepare the third quarter financials and to keep our promise
that they would be out on November 15.
Even though under SEC regulations we did not have to file any report until
December 15, I felt it was necessary that as the financials were completed,
that they be sent to the shareholders and potential investors at-large in a
timely fashion.
In my own opinion I was quite pleased that as we increased our overhead,
including staff, acquisitions and the purchase of additional properties to
grow our Company we never affected the bottom line, however, showed growth.
As explained in the press release we now have a solid platform in which to
grow this two-year old Company in an orderly manner.
Again, thank you for your note, as we aim to keep our word to the investment
community and show everybody that Struthers, Inc. is the Company to watch.
As always, warmly,
Douglas
