LONG ISLAND, N.Y., Nov. 7, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Strategic Resources International announced today that it has issued a favorable research report on behalf of IVI Communications, Inc. (OTCBB:IVCM) (WKN# A0DNWJ).
Among the points contained in the report were the following:
-- There is considerable value in acquiring rural ISPs. Customers
are traditionally loyal and revenue flows are highly
predictable.
-- This portion of the market consists of more than 3,000 small
ISPs currently serving over 12 million customers.
-- The Internet is currently entering its second and most
expansive part of its evolution- from cable broadband Internet
access to Wireless Access.
-- IVI has a strong business model. The Company's goal is to
acquire traditional dial-up ISPs in rural communities across
the U.S., build a nationally branded wireless Internet network
and to eventually migrate their customer base to the new,
faster, mode of access.
Steven Kessler, President of Strategic Resources commented, "I am pleased to issue this report on behalf of IVI Communications. I am particularly impressed by their business model and proven level of expertise in the industry, as further evidenced by the inclusion of IBC Wireless, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of IVI, in a recent industry white paper released by Motorola, Inc. The rural ISP segment of the Internet market is big business, with even greater potential. Most important is the fact that IVI is led by a management team that is second to none, with Chairman, President and CEO Nyhl Henson at the helm. Among his many professional accomplishments, Mr. Henson formerly served as CEO of Country Music Television, General Manager of Nickelodeon, and led the merger of Warner Brother's Star Channel into the Movie Channel. I believe that IVI's sound business model, the Internet's explosive growth and excellent management team bodes especially well for the company's future."
Strategic Resources International received a payment of $2,500 from IVI Communications, Inc for the preparation and issuance of this report.
