CSMG President and CEO Donald S. Robbins said, "Our patented human live tissue connecting device technology, as well as our patented purification of landfill gas to pipeline quality gas, are both moving closer to commercialization. We have engaged Empire Financial Group to develop and implement financing strategies to meet the Company's cash requirements to fund the accelerating growth of these leading-edge technologies. We anticipate our Live Tissue Connect subsidiary will be foremost in our focus as we look to fund additional development of our bonding devices, pursue global patent protection and add to working capital. We are confident we could therefore continue to rapidly move forward our commercialization strategy in Europe, the U.S. and Asia." "We believe Empire Financial Group is well suited to our needs, as they understand our technologies, and importantly, have been successful in raising capital for technologies and companies similar to CSMG," added Mr. Robbins. "We are also in discussions with various respected corporate parties to further development of our purification of landfill gas to pipeline quality gas subsidiary." Mr. Ed Cabrera, Head of Investment Banking, Empire Financial Group said, "We are very pleased to have the opportunity to work with CSMG Technologies. We believe their patented technologies could experience rapid acceptance and revenue growth in their respective target markets, which are substantial. We are moving quickly to finance the Company's Live Tissue Connect subsidiary, evidenced by our current private placement offering of securities. After closing, which we anticipate within 30 days, we will begin plans for an IPO as early as this year. With regulatory approval for its devices in the U.S., revenues could be significant, as its devices replace surgical staples, sutures, sealants and other inadequate solutions currently in use."
