Business Wire
IBSG International, Inc. (OTC BB: IBIN) a holding company for four
technology and software subsidiaries, announced today that it has
executed a 10-for-1 reverse stock split effective today. As a
result, the Company�s stocker ticker symbol is now �IBIN�, changed
from �IGII.� This follows the Company�s announcement of its World
Bank project launch of Health Business World (HBW) Gateway for
small- and medium-size health care business in Africa. This market
represents an estimated $150 billion annually. Although no
assurances can be given and based on performances of similar
projects, management anticipates that the project will generate
approximately $500,000 per month once full implementation is
achieved over the next six months. Dr. Michael Rivers, CEO of IBSG
International said, �This move is part of a strategy to list the
company�s common stock on a listed stock exchange. The shareholders
have seen strong performance from the Company and continued growth,
yet the share price and volume do not reflect either the estimated
$15-25 billion market or the continued profitability of a Company
with a 200% growth rate and consistent performance year after year.
By raising the share price above a dollar, we believe that stronger
volume and the ability to attract larger institutional investors
will follow. This, in turn, will enable us to consider the next
steps towards trading our stock on a listed stock exchange such as
the American, NASDAQ, or ARGO which should benefit shareholders.�
As a result of the reverse split, the number of outstanding common
shares of stock will decline to approximately 6,832,519 shares from
68,325,193. Shareholders approved the 10-for-1 reverse split at the
Company�s annual meeting held on September 30, 2006, and since
then, authorities in Florida, where the Company is incorporated,
and the NASD have reviewed and approved the split. Rivers
concluded, �We are continuing with our growth plan both in the US
and internationally. We continue to add states to our network of
Small Business Development Centers, most recently teaming up with
state offices in Utah and in Mississippi. Internationally, our
South African initiative has been up and running for a few months
now, and we recently announced our project with the World Bank to
extend our presence potentially across all 47 African nations.
Although no assurances can be given, all of this should translate
into a higher profile for IBSG International on the international
stage and greater revenues. Our reverse split should help translate
these developments into a better valued share price for our
stockholders.� About IBSG International, Inc. IBSG International,
