Comments & Business Outlook
SPOKANE, Wash., May 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Global MobileTech, Inc. (OTCBB: GLMB), a leading mobile advertising network and content provider in Asia, today reported earnings of $0.10 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, together with a sharp increase in shareholder equity as a result of the strategic realignment of its business.
In its quarterly report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Global Mobile reported that it had nearly tripled profit margins during the previous nine months on the strength of its technology licensing model adopted in mid-2011. Global MobileTech reported earnings $0.10 per share for the quarter and $0.26 per share for the nine months ending March 31, 2012.
"Our decision to focus on technology licensing as our principal revenue driver has proven to be a highly successful strategy," said Mohd Aris Bernawi, the Company's Chief Executive Officer. "With our acquisition of second generation technology to improve on our mobile platform and a focus on licensing, we have maintained our history of strong earnings, created more shareholder value, and can now focus on improving our market share."
"By eliminating lines of business that generated lower profits and increased our ongoing liabilities," Aris continued, "we maintained our overall profits at lower risk and substantially reduced the company's liabilities. Our balance sheet is stronger and we see great potential as we increase our market share."
In its Mobile VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) and Mobile Advertising segment, Global MobileTech saw gross profit margin jump from 14 percent to 40 percent for the first nine months of its fiscal year, in comparison with the same period in 2011. Shareholder equity, meanwhile, more than doubled from $3.155 million from the year ended June 30, 2011, to $6.64 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Source: PR Newswire (http://s.tt/1bZR6)

The lower revenue for our mobile VoIP communications and mobile advertising segment for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 was attributed to (i) the completion of mobile VoIP communications and mobile advertising contracts that were secured during 2010; and (ii) adoption of the technology licensing model following the acquisition of U.S. patent #8,005,057 on June 27, 2011 that generated lower revenues but a higher profit margin. Our adoption of the technology-licensing model has helped the Company to create a new recurring revenue stream. The new model has also helped our customers to offer a more flexible pricing structure to compete more aggressively in the market. We have mitigated the impact of the lower revenue by securing new multimedia content production and e-commerce contracts that generated a higher profit margin of between 20% to 25%.

No meaningful explanation was provided for lackluster results, but we surmise it may have to do with the fact that the company derives most of its revenue from a few customers and thus is very sensative to changes in order patterns.
Investor Alert
We have increased our marketing efforts to reduce our reliance on the four significant customers from our renewable energy segment that contribute in excess of 70% of our total revenues. If we are unable to retain any of these four significant customers, it
will have a material effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Liquidity Requirements
We need to expend approximately $15 million over the next year in costs related to the implementation of a 200 tons/day biofuel (syngas, bio-oil and biochar) production plant integrated with a 10MW syngas-to-electricity generation plant. Production of the biofuels; and generation of electricity is expected to commence during the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. We believe that our plant will be the first of its kind in South East Asia in the conversion of oil palm stems and fronds into electricity. The biofuel production and power generation plant will lay the foundation for expansion beyond 2012 by showcasing our capabilities; and attracting potential investors and joint venture partners into establishing further plants in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. These three countries have an abundant supply of biomass feedstock and governments providing investment incentives to implement renewable energy projects.
We intend to finance our expansion into the biomass-to-energy business through a combination of internally generated funds, private placement of our common stock and securing a loan under the Malaysian Green Technology Financing Scheme or GTFS. Under the GTFS scheme, the government of Malaysia will bear 2% of the total interest. In addition, the Government will provide a guarantee of 60% on the financing amount via Credit Guarantee Corporation Malaysia Berhad (CGC), with the remaining 40% financing risk to be borne by participating financial institutions/banks.
We intend to finance our expansion through a combination of:
1) internally generated funds
$ 1,500,000
2) private placement of our common stock
4,500,000
3) securing a loan under the Green Technology Financing
Scheme (“GTFS”) promoted by the government of Malaysia

The revenues were generated from our operations by our Malaysian subsidiary, Info-Accent.
Liquidity Requirements
In March 2011, we purchased two units of mobile gasifiers and multi-mode pyrolysis reactors in the amount of $666,000.
We will need to raise an additional $1.2 million to meet our capital expenditure to further expand our renewable energy business. We have engaged in discussions with private investors to provide us with the capital necessary to expand our renewable energy business.
Investor Alert
This Form 10-K
Amendment No. 1 is being filed to indicate that the financial statements for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 are unaudited due to the discovery that the
license of our former Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, Davis Accounting Group P.C. of Cedar City Utah, was lapsed at the time that the audit report was rendered. A further amendment to this Form 10-K will be filed after our financial statements for the relevant fiscal year are re-audited by our current Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
Comments & Business Outlook
Net income was $734,635 compared to a net loss for three months ended December 30, 2009.
Aik Fun Chong, President & CEO, stated, "We continue to meet critical milestones in our renewable energy business and expect to keep improving revenues for this segment for the remaining quarters of 2011."
Comments & Business Outlook
Net income was $734,635 compared to a net loss of $25,134 for three months ended September 30, 2009.
During July 2010, we expanded our operations into the renewable energy business to include the design, integration, marketing and sale of solar PV-wind and solar PV-biomass hybrid power generation applications in partnership with Powernique Technology Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian corporation. Our entry into the renewable energy business is intended to develop another recurring revenue stream that will complement our mobile VoIP calls and mobile advertising business segment.
We began generating revenue from the sale of our solar PV-biomass hybrid power generation application in Malaysia during our first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2010. On September 1, 2010, Info-Accent Sdn Bhd and Mohd. Aris Bernawi executed an Assignment Agreement whereby the Chairman assigned to the Company, exclusively throughout the world, all rights, title and interest in the methodology for the optimal sizing of a solar PV-wind hybrid power generation system. The methodology relates to finding the optimum configuration, among a set of system components, which meets the desired system reliability requirements with the lowest value of levelized cost of energy.
We have utilized the optimal sizing procedure in the design and integration of the following renewable energy applications: 1) solar PV-wind hybrid power generation for rural and remote island electrification; and powering remote radio base stations, and 2) solar PV-biomass hybrid power generation. During September 2010, we expanded the scope of our strategic partnership with Powernique Technology Sdn Bhd to include the production and sale of torrefied wood to the United States; and countries within the European Union and Asia.
