Green EnviroTech Holdings Corp. CEO Discusses Upcoming Second Quarter Report Filing


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Aug 23, 2011) - Green EnviroTech Holdings Corp. (www.greenenvirotech.com) (OTCBB: GETH) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Green EnviroTech Corp., a waste plastics recovery, separation, cleaning, and recycling company, today released a statement from CEO and Chairman Gary M. De Laurentiis commenting on the 10Q filing.

"The Company announced today that it will file its second quarter financial report on Form 10-Q late. We want to ensure our shareholders that management expects to complete the filing within the next two weeks. Two main factors have contributed to the Company filing late. First, during the second quarter, we finalized the acquisition of a Hong Kong-based plastics brokerage company, Magic Bright LTD, with coverage in Europe and Asia and revenues over the past three years in excess of USD $28 million. The addition of this subsidiary and its six locations has added complexity to the quarterly report. Secondly, the new regulatory requirement to include XBRL into periodic financial reports is a new experience for the Company and its management team. Ensuring the Company properly consolidates and reports the financials of its new Hong Kong-based subsidiary and complies with new XBRL reporting standards has taken longer than planned. Therefore, the Company's symbol will have an 'E' attached to it until the filing is made. Going forward, we expect to improve the internal reporting procedures for timely reporting in the future."
