| Donner Corp. International Issues Speculative Buy Recommendation On Far East Ventures, Inc. SANTA ANA, Calif., Jan 10, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Donner Corp. International, a broker/dealer specializing in investment banking, headquartered in Santa Ana, Ca., today issued a Speculative Buy Recommendation and initiated coverage on Far East Ventures, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FEVI chart, msgs), Miami, Florida. Far East Ventures is focused on the pre-paid PhoneCard industry, one of the fastest growing segments of the telecommunications industry.
"Far East Ventures is poised to acquire Sophisticated Communications, Inc. (SCI), a leader in PhoneCard sales and distribution in the U.S. since 1995, with sales estimated at $50 million in the year 2000 and projected sales of $105 million in 2001," Donner said. "SCI is noted for its custom tailored private label calling cards, which it targets for distribution through a network of more than 50,000 locations in 42 states.
"SCI's recently signed agreement with MCI Worldcom for the purchase and resale of pre-paid calling cards for international calls, plus Far East Venture's lucrative distribution agreement with Global TeleMedia for distribution of its BentleyTel PhoneCard are significant, encouraging announcements," Donner said. "The new management at Far East Ventures is dedicated to increasing shareholder value.
"We believe Far East's stock is highly undervalued considering its pending acquisition of SCI, recent strategic alliances and management's aggressive implementation of its newly restructured business objectives," Donner said. "The expanding global demand for pre-paid calling cards and related technologies should enhance the Company's presence and potential in the market place. These factors indicate to us that Far East Ventures, Inc., is well-positioned for aggressive growth," Donner concluded.
