Strategy to Independently List Subsidiaries and Issue Stock Dividends
The independent listing of NewMarket subsidiaries is an integral part of the Company's overall growth strategy and central to NewMarket's plan to enhance shareholder value. NewMarket independently listed subsidiaries can utilize their own public stock to acquire and fund further emerging technology growth without relying on NewMarket stock for financing the growth. Concurrently, NewMarket's financial performance benefits from the rapid growth of consolidated self funding subsidiaries. NewMarket shareholders can directly monetize the investment that NewMarket has made in its subsidiaries' assets when NewMarket distributes stock in the independently listed subsidiary operations to NewMarket shareholders through dividend distributions.
Independently Listed China, Latin America and Broadband Wireless Subsidiaries
NewMarket now has three independently listed subsidiaries. NewMarket recently announced the completion of a transaction with Diamond I, Inc. (OTCBB: DMOI) to effectively list NewMarket's Broadband wireless operations with a 2007 forecast of $10 million. NewMarket also recently announced the completion of a transaction with Paragon Financial Corp. (OTC:PGNF) to effectively list NewMarket's Latin America operations, which are expected to report over $20 million in 2006 profitable revenue. In the fourth quarter of last year, NewMarket completed the independent listing of its operations in China. The operations name has recently been changed to NewMarket China, Inc. (OTC BB: NMCH). The operations consolidated into NewMarket China are anticipated to report 2006 revenue substantially exceeding $20 million with a 2007 forecast of $40 million in revenue. The Diamond I and Paragon names will similarly be changed shortly to reflect each company's new direction within the NewMarket fold. NewMarket intends to issue stock in each of these three subsidiaries to NewMarket shareholders through dividend distributions over the next 12 to 18 months.
