Online Vacation Center is a true holding company that, through its subsidiaries, attacks the Internet travel market from several directions. Online Vacation Center's multi-directional business strategy is grounded on Internet-based travel information, personal-based contact travel service through its call center, home-based travel agents, and consumer travel based publications. The recent seven acquisitions were purchased for approximately $4.1 million in cash and stock and added approximately $3.8 million in revenue to Online Vacation Center's core business. It reported strong revenue growth for 2Q ended June 30, 2007, with revenues up 12.2% to $2.0 million over the 2006 2Q. Net income was ($444,787), versus $306,703 in 2Q 2006. Online Vacation Center strategy is evolving away from additional acquisitions toward beefing up internal spending to support its recently acquired companies. Management believes the combination of these businesses has created more internal growth opportunities, and they have decided to delay further acquisitions at this time and to invest more heavily in these businesses. Its strategy remains to grow into a combination of Expedia, Travel Zoo, and a major travel publisher. We expect it to be profitable in 2008 with revenues of $13.1 million and EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) A PostScript file format used to transfer a graphic image between applications and platforms.
