Thomas S. Smith, Cognigen’s president and CEO, added, “We are understandably pleased with the performance the Company has delivered in a vigorously contested marketplace. What has been accomplished is testimony to the loyalty and dedication of our independent agents and highly skilled professionals on our staff as well as our early and continuing efforts to maintain our standing as a leader in Internet commerce. We have invested very substantially in developing proprietary business systems for our network of independent agents around the world. Over the past six years as a public company, approximately 820,000 customers worldwide have purchased telecommunication and personal technology services and products from Cognigen’s websites. Each of the approximately 134,000 persons, who currently are registered as Cognigen agents, has a website that is replicated from the main www.ld.net site. This extraordinary Internet presence contains millions of pages that have gained for Cognigen’s principal website the number one ranking among long distance telecommunication marketing websites based on the number of unique visits and pages viewed by Ranking.com. In point of fact, Cognigen and its agents account for 11 of the top 27 long distance telecommunication websites rated by Ranking.com.

Mr. Smith continued, “We have demonstrated once again our ability to achieve sustained growth despite ever increasing competition and falling long distance rates. We have further increased our product line diversification that is helping us to reach new and more diverse customer bases. Core operations built around our telecommunication services continue to be reliable generators of revenue, and we are optimistic that our recently launched online shopping mall, www.LowestCostMall.com , will soon fulfill a promising destiny. For our shareholders the record net earnings we recorded are more than just good performance, they may well indicate greater investment value.”
