T J Swift, It's a pleasure to answer such a sensible, basic question. Airstar installs phone systems in the new living quarters for single soldiers on Army bases across the U.S. Airstar is the subcontractor to Sprint, who has the general contract with AAFES, the Army & Airforce buying arm. Every month, soldiers using their telephones are billed by Sprint and Sprint pays SSI on the following basis: 70% of dial tone charges 70% of hook-up charges 10% of all long distance Sprint pays all marketing costs This translates into $19 to $22 per man per month with a market potential of 70,000 customers. Other markets we are moving into include: Phone service to on-base hotel rooms called "billeting rooms." The payment from Sprint on these is $22.50 per room per month plus 11% of all long distance. Internet and cable TV service to all the above customers. We do not know yet how much this will add to the above figures but these two services are expected to be more profitable than the straight phone service. From here we can expand into married couples' quarters, as well as businesses on and off base and private individuals off base. So there's plenty of room for Airstar to grow. I hope this helps.
