Roth Capital Partners New York Institutional Investor Conference Sept 6-7, 2006 to Feature Over 230 Small Cap Companies Plus Special Sessions on China-Based Companies, PIPEs and SPACs.NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- Over 230 companies will be presenting to an expected audience of 1000 institutional investors at the Roth 2006 New York Stock Conference, scheduled for September 6-7 at the Westin New York at Times Square. In keeping with Roth's commitment to investment ideas within the small cap market, the 2006 New York Conference will showcase approximately 200 growth companies from the US, plus 30 companies from China, one of the world's fastest-growing emerging economies. "Great investment ideas don't just come to you. Even in the best of markets, finding hidden value takes innovative thinking," according to Roth's Director of Research, Rusty Hoss. "In today's difficult markets, finding hidden value requires an even more intense search that sometimes leads to emerging markets where inefficiencies can be even more pronounced. "At Roth we've always taken a slightly different approach to the markets. We firmly believe that partnering with small cap companies early gives an edge over competitors," added Hoss. "We would rather be early than late. With an average market cap of the presenting companies in the $200 million range, investors may be able to leave with several new and interesting investment ideas." To add greater value to the Roth Conference experience, the firm has added several educational sessions, including one on China, which will explore the opportunities and pitfalls of investing in China, with a focus on regulatory issues. It will be led by renowned China expert and recently named Vice Chairman of Roth Capital, Don Straszheim. A second educational panel will focus on Private Placement in Public Equity (PIPE) transactions, including key regulatory issues that companies must address when structuring an offering. A third panel will address Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs), an alternative funding mechanism that is generating growing interest in the investment community. Panelists will discuss how SPACs are evolving, including amounts raised, growing participation and longer term involvement by funds, and SEC and AMEX considerations. Roth Capital Partners Stock Conferences are one of the largest in the nation for micro- and small-cap companies. Unlike Roth's West Coast conference, this event will focus on companies with market caps of under $500 million. Though smaller, the companies stay aligned with Roth's research focus of covering Technology, Healthcare, Financial Services and Consumer Products sectors. Supporting sponsors of the Roth 2006 New York Stock Conference include, to date: Bryan Cave LLP; Business Wire; Cingular; Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP; Lowenstein Sandler PC; RIM; Thomson Financial; Wall Street Webcasting; Capital IQ, Inc.; American Stock Exchange; Catalyst Group; CCG Investor Relations; Elite Financial Communications Group; Richardson and Patel; The Global Consulting Group; The Piacente Group; TradeWare; UTEK Corp.; and Vintage Filings, LLC.
