For those who missed the releases of last couple of days...stock around .53/.59: (COMTEX) B: CTIG Announces 23% Increase in Revenues and a Return to P B: CTIG Announces 23% Increase in Revenues and a Return to Profitability for Its Quarter Ended June 30, 1999 VALLEY FORGE, Pa., Jul 27, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE via COMTEX) -- CTIGroup (Holdings) Inc. (OTC:CTIG) reported a 23% increase in revenues to $2,003,117 for its first quarter ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $1, 626,510 for the corresponding period in 1998. The Company also reported a net income of $135,457 as compared to a net loss of ($340,880). Net income per common share was $0.02 compared to a net loss of ($0.05) per share. The return to profitability was primarily achieved through increased generation of revenues and operational efficiency. Commenting on the results Mr. Johns, Chairman and CEO, stated "The final stage of our cost cutting efficiency program has now been completed in our recently acquired UK business operation. However, the quarter being reported does not reflect the full benefit of these operational savings. Therefore, these efficiency measures implemented, coupled with a continued growth in demand for our products and services, lead us to anticipate a further improvement in our operating results for the coming quarter. Having stated this we should caution the Company is unable to unlock the full upside potential of its products and services, primarily in the newly emerging convergent internet/telephony billing market, due to its current working capital deficit. We are therefore exploring various alternative opportunities to remove these restrictions in order to enhance shareholder value."
