Mel, the answer to *most* of your questions is "nobody knows", because they are financial questions.

This company, as a non-reporting company, chooses not to share that kind of information with it's shareholders.

Trust them, though. They are working for your interests. Really.

A blind trust is good enough for the President of the United States. It should be good enough for you! :)

Mel, the answers to your questions are not known ... yet. ZULU needs to put out financials and/or when the ESVS/ZULU merger takes place we will all know.

btw, Jon Tara is a basher of this stock but he does it with tongue-in-cheek class.

Joe PTG&LI !!!

Mel, in my view, I hope Hayton's still in on this somehow. And he probably is. Why would we want him to sell something that was going to some day be a big money-maker? Think about it. In my view--and I don't know the man and I don't know anybody who does--I think some folks burned him like they did witches long ago.

Regarding your questions, I can't answer them all--I simply don't have time and resources. But I'll take a stab at a few:

1 - What is the number of outstanding shares?, Float?

This is public record.

2 - What percentage of shares are held by insiders?

Insiders own at least 66%, if not more, of ESVS. Zulu hasn't reported.

3 - Will there be an issuance of shares in the near future?

Most likely, given the stock options for new hires and the recently announced eCommerce purchase.

4 - Does the company see a reverse split in the future?

In effect, we're looking at a reverse merger. But the valuation issue is cloudy due to the fact that Zulu, now trading at a lower price than ESVS, will own 80% of the resulting entity. There are way too many "expert" opinions out there to enable us to get a fair opinion. I theorized a post-merger reverse split could be necessary in order to attract institutional investment, but given what we saw with ESVS yesterday, I think this is unlikely.

5 - any NEW high profile clients been added (and confirmed)?

echoMEDIA had bluechip clients; Softbank Interactive Marketing was loaded to the gills with bluechips; and eCommerce Corp has brought more on board. Eventually, ZuluMedia's work with Netscape has to draw more attention. And no doubt, Green's Disney connections can only be helpful in attracting new ones.

6 - How will the company market its products/services?

This is the genius behind it all. Go to the Zulu website. I, personally, hold a theory that maybe another company that specialized in demographic targeting and recognition might be brought on board--but this is theory on my part. However, a review of past SI postings will show that I always felt that Zulu's e-commerce side was weak and that another acquisition was needed here. Maybe I'll be right again; maybe not.

7 - Any contracts (sales) completed or in negotiation
.....(when is their closure date)?

Call the company.

8 - How does the company's products/servicescompare to DLCK?

It has always been the prevailing wisdom on this thread in the early days that Zulu's technology was superior to Doubleclicks. But Doubleclick has grown of late and I don't have the expertise to make the comparative. Can Doubleclick do movie-quality ads? Let's find out more on this one. Good question.

9 - What is the company doing to increase shareholder value?

So tired, tired of waiting, tired of waiting for Zulululuuuuuuu.

10 - How is the company's monthly/yearly cash flow?

So tired, tired of waiting, tired of waiting for Zulululuuuuuuu.

11 - What is the company's monthly expenses to monthly cash inflows?

Ditto.

12 - What is the company's debt to equity ratio?

Ditto.

13 - What is Book Value compared to competitors?

Ditto.

14 - Does the company have any major corporate alliances?

A strategic alliance with Universal Commerce and Laptops has one with Panasonic. Also, according to Tom Burgess--a long time ago--Auto Track may still be on the back burner.

15 - What method for raising funds will the company pursue?

Gees, I always thought it was yachting money. But that's speculation on my part.

Thanks!

Tell you what. I'll thank you, if you get better answers. Good luck. Welcome back, if you're back. I know you got burned before. But then again, so did I. But I only sold half of what I held, post-Wired. But for some strange reason, there are some who like innocent Zulu investors to lose money. I never could quite figure out that personality.
