Bengt Odner, ESW's Chairman, commented, "It has been an eventful year for the company moving from a development stage into manufacturing and sales. Our cost cutting program has been very successful and the relocation of the head office and operations to Telford has saved considerable costs. Our recent EPA certification on behalf of one of our customers is very exciting and I am very pleased with the increased order bookings and potential outlook for future sales. We are testing our unique catalyst products with several customers and look forward to acquiring further certifications, which we anticipate will continue the order inflow during 2002. With our increased production capacity, to date deliveries of our products have been on schedule and to our customer's satisfaction."
As part of the cost cutting program in the fourth quarter, ESW relocated and consolidated its headquarters and operations to Telford Pennsylvania. This move alone has saved the company approximately $300,000 per year.
ESW also reported in its recent filing with the SEC that Mr. Ken Nichols resigned as CEO and Director of the Company in March 2002 without any disagreements with the company or its management. Mr. Bengt Odner has temporarily assumed Mr. Nichols' duties as CEO until the company finds a suitable replacement.
ESW has also filed a Form 10-QSB/A with the SEC on the 10th of April, which amends its prior unaudited quarterly report for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2001. While the year end figures reported in the recently filed 10-KSB correctly state net loss for ESW, the prior 10-QSB did not include certain consulting fees paid by the company which resulted in an increase in the net loss.
As stated, the year-end numbers correctly state ESW's net loss for fiscal 2001, the amended 10-QSB is being filed to allow for accurate comparison of future quarterly results.
