Because of the synergy of the paradigms :) "Based on our communications with their representatives, there is potential for this merger to have a synergistic effect on their 'growth by acquisition' goals. "Our attention will now focus on a detailed examination of this enterprise in order to substantiate our expectation of a mutually profitable fit. If our preliminary analysis proves accurate" Just kidding of course! But this news article basically says that the merger is with the lawyers for review. I see this as a merger with someone that will turn this boat around. Much better than the "other" alternative. The perfect scenario is someone with production capabilities to restart the marketing leads, possible work etc. and manage this business correctly. In this business area a 10 man office should be capable of doing 1mill in business a year with about 200 to 300k in profits - if this is done we could see a 25cent stock in a year IMO. If you don't like the risk don't dive in!! Bill

jean claude, The link you saw from Aug 20 shows just how badly the "old management" left things. Jack Arnold just took over in August after the "old management" resigned. By reviewing the last 3 press releases, you can see that Jack Arnold has really made some strides in reviving CVIA from "near dead" to where it has some excellent potential (and probably FAR better than it EVER was before)!!. Here are the press releases: From Oct 14 biz.yahoo.com From Nov 11 biz.yahoo.com For Nov 19 cvia.com Here are some of the things that make CVIA attractive: 1. The price is at or near the 52 week low. 2. They have virtually NO debt. 3. They are keeping the shareholders informed. There is NO pie-in-the-sky "Zillion Dollar" hype. They are just telling it like it is and getting the job DONE with shareholder interests in mind. 4. The NEW management seems committed to getting a merger done. I am amazed at what they have accomplished in a short time with limited resources. Remember, Jack Arnold just took the helm about 3 months ago. 5. CVIA should be VERY attractive to private companies wanting to go public for several reasons: -> CVIA is a clean shell but it DOES have some ASSETS! (They own interest in 2 small companies) -> CVIA has virtually NO Debt. -> CVIA could offer a merging partner a $2 million loss carry forward that could be a strong tax benefit (perhaps equal to $600,000 CASH under the right circumstances). -> CVIA should be able to put a deal together quickly. 6. CVIA says they have several offers. And I understand they DO want to get something done in a relatively short time, BUT they want it to be the BEST one. 7. I really like how they are keeping shareholders informed. For once shareholders are NOT being ignored. 8. If they get a good sized private company to merge, this could take a huge jump practically overnight. How many 3 cent stocks have this much going for them? That's why it looks good to me. Of course, nobody should invest until they have done their own DD. But this could be worth the DD time. Best wishes, Brad
