I attended shareholders meeting which I would say was very upbeat. This years unofficial
projections are for $15-17 million in sales with next year about $25 million. The company is
indicating that they are attempting to bring in strategic partners to increase awareness in
company and/or to get a large company in industry to partnership with ACRO so their sales
will grow more quickly. Mancuso alluded to the fact that ACRO may be so desirable for
another company in the industry that they will/may be eventually taken over. However,
Mancuso feels the value of the stock is very low at present and wants to get price higher
before any talks take place relative to selling out. Don't get me wrong, I am not insinuating
that Mancuso necessarily wants to sell the company, but I think he feels the marketplace will
force it. He and the other board members were extremely positive on the factt that
Internationa; sales provide tremendous opportunity, that ACRO technology is the strongest in
tthe industry, that the larger broadcasters are now taking an interest in ACRO and they are
taking them more seriously (in fact FOX network is suppposedly visiting ACRO next week
with more to follow), the company feels they do not have to do any more partnering such as
the Scorpian deal(by the way they defending the sale of shares fro $3 each in that Scorpian
has great connections and bring other assets to ACRO), and there was a gentleman in
attendance (whom I forget his name) who apparently has very strong ties to the major
broadcasters and is supposedly going to be a great benefit if obtaining the broadcaster's ear.
That's the scoop!
