(COMTEX) B: BEN EZRA, WEINSTEIN AND COMPANY, INC. ANNOUNCES ADDITIONA B: BEN EZRA, WEINSTEIN AND COMPANY, INC. ANNOUNCES ADDITIONAL DIVESTITURES THREE NEW CORPORATIONS INTEND TO FILE AS REPORTING OTC:BB COMPANIES
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Jul 12, 1999 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Ben Ezra, Weinstein and Company, Inc. ("BNEZ") (OTC Bulletin Board: BNEZ) announced today that it is divesting three subsidiaries into separate Nevada registered corporations. Each corporation will apply with the NASD to become reporting OTC:BB companies.
"BNEZ shareholders will receive a greater value, in our opinion, by this division of products and services than they would by keeping everything under a single corporate roof," said Jack Ben Ezra, President and CEO of BNEZ.
The three new companies will offer products and services acquired through acquisitions, and services formally offered through BNEZ, explained Michael Weinstein, COO of BNEZ. "The Folio based platforms acquired through InfoDynamics, Internet advisory services and an Internet capital resource group are going their separate ways," Weinstein said. "CapScape, PPM andPMA stay here," he added.
"Once the divestitures are completed," said Ben Ezra, "each of the three companies will file separately to be listed as reporting OTC:BB companies. As in the case of Compass Data Systems, Inc. ("Compass"), each of the spin off companies are prepared to file once the divesting process iscompleted."
BNEZ shareholders will receive one share of each of the spin off corporations for every ten shares of BNEZ. The record date of the spin-offs is July 24, 1999.
"We do not anticipate any further divestitures once these are completed, " said Michael Weinstein. He added that details regarding each of the new companies will be released in separate announcements.
