Gary, earlier this month you mentioned PRZ. The more I look at them the more I like'em. They won't interest many here because there is 41M shares out and it's at $3. However, I think it has all the qualities of a future star.
It's also the poster child for a good forward statement.
Mark Szporka, Chief Financial Officer of PainCare, stated, "We believe that 2004 will be yet another outstanding year for PainCare. Most notably, the organic growth we have achieved in the practices that we've acquired -- specifically those who have been on board with PainCare for over 12 months, is reflecting, on average, a 47% increase in operating income. We believe that this solidly confirms that our strategy to diversify and enhance a practice's service offerings is working and working very well." Continuing, Szporka added, "With regard to our financial guidance, I am pleased to report that PainCare is firmly on pace to achieve $35 to $36 million in revenue, $10 to $10.5 million in operating income, $5.5 to $6 million in net income and $.14 to $.15 per fully diluted share in earnings in 2004. Based on the ongoing successful execution of our business plan, we expect to achieve $59 to $60 million in revenue, $23 to $24 million in operating income, $14 to $14.5 million in net income and $.24 to $.25 earnings per fully diluted share in 2005." PainCare's Chief Executive Officer, Randy Lubinsky, said, "As evidenced by our third quarter performance, we continue the steadfast execution of our model -- grow revenues, maintain expense discipline, expand margins and enhance earnings. With nine consecutive quarters of record results, we are accumulating a strong track record and continue to build the Company for success in all market environments. Given the proceeds from our Company's first public offering completed in early October 2004, we have sufficient resources to pursue our growth objectives in the coming year. Moreover, the offering has delivered a series of value-added benefits to our Company, not the least of which include enhanced liquidity in our stock through increased public float, analyst sponsorship from two highly respected investment banking firms on Wall Street, and many new high-quality institutional shareholders. Although 2004, by any measure, is shaping up to be a landmark year for PainCare, 2005 is expected to be even stronger." |
