January Corporate Update
On January 10th NECA issued a letter to shareholders from CEO David Fair with an overall corporate update. The letter included the following:
Dear Valued Shareholders,
We are now shifting our focus to the pipeline of acquisitions we developed in 2021 and now look to execute in 2022. We believe that with the potential targets and organic growth, NECA can more than double its revenue this year and possibly much more.
Over the last few months, NECA has received recurring questions from several shareholders which I have addressed in the outline below.
NECA plans to up-list to the NASDAQ within the next 24 months.
NECA plans to officially complete its name change to Third Bench Holdings, LLC within the next 30-60 days.
NECA has have completed paperwork to make changes to the OTC Markets profile page and we are waiting for the profile to be updated.
NCEA has completed several initiatives to drastically reduce expenses. Below are some of example of reductions in key annual expenses:
Reduction in excessive management employees reduced labor cost by ~$500,000
Normalization of PTO/Holiday reduces expenses by ~$200,000
Health Insurance adjustments reduced expenses by ~$250,000
NCEA continues to reduce expenses through the centralization of key operations and leveraging the size of our organization as we grow operations. We also maintain a pipeline of targets that would be very synergistic, and we believe we can complete at least two targets in 2022.
Regarding the NECA new authorized share count, it is our intention to raise additional funds to support the acquisition of additional synergistic target and supply working capital for the business, all of which will ultimately increase value for all shareholders. Given the current NECA pipeline of business and acquisition target we believe achieving $50M in revenue in 2022 is a conversative estimate.
