Mr. Donohoe, the Company's CEO, President and Chairman stated, "ESW continues to execute on its previous stated sales strategy in favor of high volume customers needing catalyzed substrates. We are pleased with our continued improvement in all of our comparative results, and feel that these results further demonstrate the company's commitment to its newest business disciplines and our march towards profitability. ESW continues to establish relationships with outside catalytic converter assemblers that manufacture and sell ready to install converters incorporating our proprietary diesel and gas/petrol catalyzed substrates. Our after-market and retrofit activities continue to increase as demand for our products increases, and individual customers tests continue to yield positive results. Our substrates and boutique products are gaining wider acceptance because our substrate component sizes are flexible and can be produced to the exact dimensions of existing products being used, and our products performance continues to produce better than required results."
Mr. Donohoe further remarked, "The Company continues to provide certification services and assist our customers in acquiring EPA/CARB certifications using the ESW technology. These same certification customers are now purchasing ESW products and for the first time, we are starting to gain a same-store sales dynamic, and the synergies that we had anticipated between certification customers and product consumers, are now starting to take place."
In accordance with the Chairman-CEO Letter of October 2002 and the Company's Shareholder-Awareness commitment, CEOcast will be interviewing John Donohoe on Wednesday May 14, 2003. This is the second such interview and this procedure will continue to take place quarterly, in lieu of an analyst/shareholder conference call that was discussed in that 2002 letter. The replay of this interview will be available on Thursday May 15th 2003 and can be accessed on the ESW website at www.cleanerfuture.com or by logging on to CEOcast at www.ceocast.com and clicking on Environmental Solutions Worldwide on the right side of the screen.
