most cost-effective solutions for management and fault detection of fiber and
wire networks. Our goal is to reposition OptiCon as the leader in this space,
utilizing our previous customer base and leveraging new customers in this
expanding market. The company's sales and marketing efforts have already
commenced and a number of contract negotiations are now in an advanced
stage. The management at OptiCon will continue to build shareholder value as we
work to regain our leadership position in the global fiber optic management
sector."
