$1,341,896 at November 30, 2004, an increase of $2,252,888 or 167%.
The Companys equity was further increased when Empire State Development
(a New York State Agency), Small Business Technology Investment Fund,
increased its investment in the Company by an additional $250,000. The
investment took place in January 2006 and increases shareholders equity to
approximately $3,844,784.
As discussed in a recent shareholder letter, Dr. Christopher L. Coccio
emphasized that last year, we began to place increasing importance on
developing new markets overseas in places such as China, India, Southeast
Asia, Europe, and Eastern Europe. Over the last twelve months, we have more
than doubled the number of countries where we have an established sales
distribution channel. We can now be considered a Company with a truly
international presence. The initial investment in time and money is high when
entering new geographic territories, but we are already seeing payback for our
efforts, with sales being made in almost every country in these new markets.
We also have entered into relationships with a company in India and one in
China, that promise to add to our product basket in a very cost effective way.
Geographic market expansion is as important as the development of new product
offerings in creating future growth for Sono-Tek. We plan to continue both of
these activities in the coming year.
