SavWatt USA, Inc. (OTCBB: SAVW), pioneers in LED lighting and the
Green Revolution, today released a New Year message from SavWatt's
CEO, Mr Ike H. Sutton.
Dear Shareholders,
We are now at a pivotal point in SavWatt's history; 2011 has
closed with a long list of accomplishments and we are starting 2012
with a long list of goals. Building a new business takes focus,
determination, and support from all those involved. We are slowly
becoming a major force in the new LED revolution, a supplier of a
product which is a game changer for an industry that has been
around for 100 years, and an innovator of new technology for energy
saving and green initiatives.
Our 2011 accomplishments are attributed to the efforts of
SavWatt's team which is now 30 and growing. I would like to
highlight a few:
- We have completed Phase 1 of the Baltimore facility build-out;
our LED Quality Control Burn in Machine has been installed and
tested. LED Bulbs are put through a 6 hour testing regimen before
being shipped to clients providing the highest level of quality
control in the industry and enabling SavWatt to offer a 4 year
warranty. Additionally, 2 assembly lines have been installed to
produce orders that require Built in America status which will make
available US government stimulus funds.
- Company sales offices in New York, Florida, Virginia, and soon
to open in California have been established and staffed. Our focus
has been areas with high cost of energy -- note each of these areas
the cost of energy exceeds .15 per kilowatt, which makes LED bulb
replacement a must.
- International subsidiaries have been established in Asia and
Europe in anticipation of global distribution of SavWatt
products.
- An Exclusive Worldwide License has been entered into with P2i,
a provider of a patented nano coating which will make our LED bulbs
water and dirt resistant, a major differentiator from suppliers
like Phillips, GE and Sylvania.
- Our Ecopoles have been installed in strategic locations for
testing and continued to be installed and upgraded. These tests
provide valuable information for deployment of thousand units
worldwide in the upcoming years. The ecopole has been classified as
art sculpture and is aesthetically acceptable by communities
nationwide.
- Savwatt's web site, a project by itself. The site tracks all
our products, specifications and uses. It tracks our ecopoles
location with pictures, provides a calculator for all to see the
saving affect of our LED lights, and is a repository of all news
and sec information for our investors.
- Our products are constantly changing due to technology
advancements in this area. We pride ourselves as being able to
bring the latest technological engineered products to market before
our competitors due to our size and determination. Our products
consist of outdoor, indoor, and our totally off the grid ecopoles
and soon to be released sunpoles.
- Our suppliers overseas and in the USA have recognized that our
vision and marketing efforts are unique and have either entered
into exclusive distribution agreements or partnership agreements to
make SavWatt the brand of choice worldwide.
- We have attended several trade shows over the year and have
developed a database of hundreds of Energy Solution Providers that
are hungry for information and partnership; we look forward to
developing these relationships.
- We have retained 3rd party consultants to apply for Carbon
Credits for our ecopoles. With a projection of 10,000 units a $15
million carbon credit plan is in the works. Coupled with a
successful forward sale of these credits, these funds will provide
SavWatt substantial working capital for their deployment
worldwide.
- Our shareholder based grown to over 3,000 shareholders and this
is one of our major assets for the new year.
We, like any other business, had a few disappointments and we
are dealing with them. Our relationship with Humanim was terminated
as our vision and their boards vision parted ways. DTC which clears
stock for all brokerage houses decided not to clear our stock
electronically, creating hardship for shareholders to buy and sell
our shares, but on a good note, it also limits the shorting of the
stock. We are trying to rectify this matter but it is out of our
control and is affecting all small micro cap stocks. Our quarterly
filings in 2011 were late and we have taken actions to make sure
that all our required SEC filing are made on time.
For 2012 we have many resolutions and goals, but to name the top
3:
- Share Valuation - we would like to see a major increase in
valuation. Our industry values companies at a minimum of 4 times
revenues. Our minimum sales goal for 2012 is $10 million. We have
planted the seeds and in 2012 we should start to see the results of
our efforts.
- Higher Exchange - we would like to move to Amex or Small Cap
Nasdaq -- we are currently evaluating their requirements and
creating a plan that will enable to achieve this goal.
- Cash Flow Positive - we believe that by mid-year we will be
cash flow positive. Our projection, cash requirements, sales
objectives are being monitored daily in order to achieve these
goals.
In regards to funding and dilution, a touchy subject, which I
receive many emails and calls daily, I would like to point out and
remind all shareholders that SavWatt is a Development Stage
company. We have accomplished a lot in 2011 but still are
pre-substantial revenues; we are still not cash flow positive. We
are raising funds through short term convertible loans; these loans
when converted do dilute the stock. This method of financing is
necessary to grow our business; we are not bankable and do not have
a major company big brother. In fact all the shareholders should
consider themselves venture capitalists. The alternative and easier
solution to this is to accept a $10 million funding from a venture
capital firm, give up control and 80% ownership and be subject to a
share reverse and major dilution. I believe the road we have taken
is best for all shareholders including myself. It provides the cash
needed for operations and growth. Based on current share price and
3.1 billion shares outstanding as of today, our company has a
valuation of under $1 million, as stated above our goal for 2012 is
for a much higher valuation. As venture capitalists, building a
business takes time and is not for day traders.
For this new year, I would like to thank the support of our
shareholders which is our major asset. We have grown and developed
due to their support. I have only one request for the new year that
is in regards to SavWatt's bashers on online chat boards. Ask
yourself why are they bashing SavWatt? If they are shareholders,
why bash? This only creates negativity in the marketplace. If they
are not shareholders, why are they on the board? Are they being
paid for bashing? By whom and what's the purpose? And if they are
really unhappy with SavWatt and the SavWatt team, get out of the
stock and move on. Please do not listen or act based on basher
information as they have an agenda of their own and provide
misinformation to the determent of the company.
On a positive note, we are providing a product that saves
energy, is green and is mandated by government regulations. The
opportunity is huge; we are aggressively working our plan and we
will succeed.
Happy and Healthy New Year and Regards to All. Ike H. Sutton,
CEO SavWatt USA, Inc
