NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Wall Street Reporter recently talked to executives from three companies -- NewMarket China Inc. (OTCBB:NMCH), Gryphon Gold Corp. (TSX:GGN), and Advantage Energy Income Fund (NYSE:AAV) -- poised to take their already substantial business propositions to the next level. All three interviews can be listened to or downloaded exclusively at www. WallStreetReporter.com.
"China's been chugging along," says John Verges, CEO of Shanghai-based technology solutions provider NewMarket China Inc. (OTCBB:NMCH). "Step One was to establish customers and revenue. We've done that."
Highlights of the interview:
- How the company has executed on the "game plan" pioneered by its corporate parent, NewMarket Technology (OTCBB: NMKT), and has in fact grown faster than its parent. - Detail on plans to expand beyond hardware integration into software outsourcing and even some alternative energy applications. - An overview of the company's broad-based customer list, a mix of government and commercial entities operating in China.
Exploration company Gryphon Gold Corp. (TSX:GGN) is also building on an established base -- in this case, 800,000 ounces of gold in the ground, explains CEO Tony Ker. "What we're doing there is really expanding on the ounces that we have," he says. "Our No. 1 goal is to get more ounces."
Highlights of the interview:
- Encouraging recent signs that the company's flagship Borealis property in Nevada's Walker Lane may indeed contain over a million ounces of gold. - The impact of a recent acquisition of about 50 properties, about half of which are already generating licensing revenue. - Opportunities for starting production in the near term.
Oil and gas royalty trust Advantage Energy Income Fund (NYSE:AAV) has had a "very solid" year in terms of both operational performance and drilling, says Andy Mah, president and chief operating officer. "The drill bit is working, production is nice and stable."
Highlights of the interview:
- Discussion of the company is gearing up to be a consolidator as Canadian gas supply drops. - Mr. Mah's view of the upcoming changes in Alberta's royalty trust code and why they should have only a "negligible" effect on Advantage. - An overview of the company's hedge book and 99% drilling success rate.
