Further, the Company continued to realize noteworthy growth from increased subscriber utilization of PERS through its national provider network. During 2005, the telephony based communication services ("TBCS") unit experienced unprecedented expansion; acquiring three strategic TBCS companies encompassing five communication centers. Concurrently, this segment continues to experience impressive organic growth as a result of the success of its recently developed daytime service offering. With the TBCS acquisitions, including its latest in March 2006, combined with its organic growth, the Company is generating an annual run rate in the TBCS segment of more than $15.0 million in revenue versus approximately $7.5 million reported in 2005.

As part of its long-term business expansion strategy, the Company invested in additional personnel in the TBCS segment to prepare for a significant contract for its daytime service offering, which commenced in January 2006. In addition to this expansion, the Company accelerated the exchange program of certain PERS equipment. Although these investments caused a moderate shortfall from its earnings forecast, the Company believes it will be beneficial to the ongoing operations.

Howard M. Siegel, AMAC's chief executive officer, commented, "We are pleased with the results for 2005, particularly as it relates to the traction we have made in our revenue base. We view the upcoming year with optimism -- our continued pursuit towards greater operational efficiencies and momentum allows us to further accelerate our business strategies in our primary operating segments. We anticipate additional growth in our primary segments in 2006, with organic growth and additional acquisitions in the TBCS segment, while additional health management products and service offerings in the HSMS segment are planned for rollout within next twelve months."
