ICC Worldwide Announces Financial Results for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2007
CORONA DEL MAR, Calif.--(Business Wire)-- ICC Worldwide, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ICCW) today announced financial results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007. Due to a change in the company's fiscal year, FY-2007 results represent the nine month period ended September 30, 2007. During the 2007 fiscal year, the company also disposed of its previous computer mouse business. In this regard, the results of all mouse-related activities have been presented as discontinued operations in the firm's financial statements and are not reflected in the company's revenue. Revenue for the nine month fiscal year period was $21,540. The company's cash balance was $1,029,949 at September 30, 2007. Due to the change in the company's fiscal year and the discontinued mouse operations, comparisons between the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 and the prior fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 are not meaningful. George Stevens, ICC's Chairman stated, "At the end of June, 2007, we began the implementation of a completely new strategic direction for our company. This included a new Board of Directors and Management team, a name change, nearly $1.8 million of new financing, divestiture of the old mouse business, and the establishment of a European business unit focused initially on serving the needs of immigrant workers in Italy. The early steps in this transition have now been accomplished and we are very excited about the opportunity for significant growth in the coming months." ICC's President & CEO, Richard Lauer further elaborated, "We were able to successfully complete the acquisition and startup of several initial retail locations during the challenging European July/August holiday period. These sites were operational for only a few weeks in September and therefore revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was modest. However, we are confident that our strategy and market focus will begin to produce significant revenue growth in the coming months." Lauer went on to say, "Our recent inability to file the September 30, 2007 10-QSB and 10-KSB documents within the required timeframes was obviously a major disappointment for everyone involved with ICC. We have made substantial progress in streamlining our internal systems to reduce financial reporting time and fully expect to be filing comfortably within the deadline for the quarter ending March 31, 2008. With regard to the quarter ended December 31, 2007, this deadline is rapidly approaching. However, at this point we are cautiously optimistic about meeting this deadline as well. Going forward, I am pleased to note that our target market is quite large, underserved, can readily be expanded into other Western European countries, and is generally ripe with opportunity. We therefore believe that this business will begin to yield significant financial performance in the coming months." About ICC Worldwide ICC Worldwide, Inc.
