LEXINGTON, Ky., June 2, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Plasticon International Inc. (Pink Sheets:PLNI) today announced that the company will be presenting at the Wall Street Reporter's Microcap 5 Investors Summit conference.
The conference, which takes place in New York City on June 15th, will feature 6 CEOs who will present to a distinguished panel for 15 minutes each. The CEOs will then be grilled by the panel regarding their presentations and their company's fundamentals. "I certainly relish the opportunity to tell our story and make our case to some of the most sophisticated investment minds in the country," said Jim Turek, President and CEO of Plasticon International, Inc. "Presenting at this conference is an important step for Plasticon and gives us exposure to a very influential segment of the investment community."
Mr. Turek noted that there are five main points he would like to demonstrate to the panel and conference attendees. "First, Plasticon has superior technology and I would like to relate that to some of our recent product announcements, which put us light years ahead of the competition. Secondly, we have the distribution and partnership relationships in place to become the dominant force in the recycled plastic sector. Third, our management team is seasoned and has the international experience to steer our company to become the top recycled plastics company in the industry. Fourth, we are in the process of making a privately financed acquisition that is crucial to the strategic positioning of the company. And finally, we have launched a new marketing and PR campaign, which is effectively telling our story to our shareholders, customers, and to the general public. We believe that we have a compelling story and serious investors should consider taking a position with our company."
As a final note, Mr. Turek mentioned that he will also be discussing Plasticon's upcoming transition from the Pink Sheets to OTCBB. "Our transition strategy is a very important issue for institutional investors, investment banking firms and high net worth investors," Mr. Turek said. "A full company audit will be completed in weeks, and that is a significant step toward becoming fully reporting, transitioning to the OTCBB and eventually becoming a big board stock. There are many positive developments with Plasticon International to report, and I'm looking forward to presenting at this important forum."
