Dear Fellow Stock Holders:
Let me take this opportunity to wish you all a very Happy and propserous new Year.
I have just returned from my overseas trip and I have lots of good news for all of you. In the past two months while I was away, I spent most of my time getting new customers. I have mentioned that this is the only thing we need to do for the next 18 months - get revenue. We have been extremely successful in opening more sales to more hospitals in many more countries. In 2007 I can conclude that we have booked over $9 million in revenue. I expect to do about $20 million for 2008. This will come from the sales of the DCM system and alot of this revenue will come from the sales of the work stations. I have been told by my Indian and Dubai distributors that they expect to contrubute $40 million in total sales. I hope this is true. I will look at their marketing plans in late January when we meet to discuss logistics issues about shipping and integration.
At this time we are already preparing to ship over 20 systems to the countries that I visited in the last three months. This is about $5 million worth of revenue. This is the start of many good things.
I am in the final stages of making some restructuring of the company. I have agreed in principle to allow three major investors to the company, namely the Silverdale Services, Barclay Capital and Goldman Sacs. I am in the final stages of preparing the balance sheet of 2007 and allow to mail them the past three years of tax returns. Once they see that we do not have any liabilities they will go ahead and fund this company $25 million. The money will come in the form of a loan stock which is convertible at $2.00 a share. I expect a 20% dulition but it will not matter as this will bring about a higer stock value. The proceeds will be used to purchase a much needed software to add to our DCM system so that we can sell the product better. The rest of the money will be used to keep the company alive. We are seeking legal advice from our SEC attorneys to move this company to Singapore. A new company registered in Singapore will b e formed to absorb eFotoXpress in its entiety. Then two more companies will be added. One of them is a pharmaceutical development company. This company has developed a drug that will slow down degeneration of the bone in old people (like me). Bone degeneration is one of the causes of ostro-arthrithis. The other is a vet product. I have attached an article for all of you to see. The pig farming industry in Thailand and Philippines accounts for 1/3 of the world's production.
When all of these are put to place, we will become a real big company. In Singapore we will be hire management staff, sales people and we will move our R and D there. By July 2008, we hope to seek listing in Singapore by way of an IPO. I am asking for $8 a share with 25% of your shares to be part of the IPO. In other words if they agree to go out on an IPO, then you can sell 25% of your shares to them at $8. Then you can keep the rest and sell in the open market. I expect that they will lock all our shares for a six months period. I am trying to negotiate for 3 months instead. Listing is definitely a must and this is not an option no more. We need to increase our capital base as we begin to grow.
Moving to Singapore has been seriously considered because of the immense cost in maintaining a public company in the USA. Our partners also see erosion in the stock market in the USA and see a boom in Asia. Not only was cost an issue but also the listing requirement which can eat a lot of time of the CEO and the management. Most important of they all see a poor financial scene in the next three years in the US.
All the paper work should be ready by middle of this week and I will immediately call for a stock holder meeting to approve the move.
Once again thanks and this is definitely going to be a great 2008.
Regards
Edward Tan
CEO
