Company Also Is Confident Top Line Revenue Growth for June 30 Quarter Will Show Triple Digit Growth and Substantial Increase in Cash on Company Balance Sheet at end of Quarter.
In the letter, Robbie Lee, CEO of U.S. Dry Cleaning Corporation adds: “We are very optimistic about this quarter and the business going forward. We have over $100 million (revenue) of acquisitions of which we are in advanced discussions. We expect to see additional growth this quarter. We have been acquiring businesses as fast as possible and we will continue to do so.” During 2008 U.S. Dry Cleaning has acquired Team Enterprises in central California, Zoots in the Virginia Beach area and Caesars Cleaners in Hawaii. Lee said in the correspondence: “With every acquisition our cash flow improves.” He noted that since the company filed its IPO registration statement in December 2006, “we have quadrupled our store level cash flow and improved our liquidity while keeping debt levels proportionately flat.” He added that the company believes this is a significant achievement in the current economic climate.
