Surety Capital Corp. Announces Fourth Quarter and Annual 2014 Earnings
(firmenpresse) - FORT WORTH, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 02/26/15 -- (OTC PINK: SRYP) announces its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014 unaudited financial results and its annual 2014 unaudited financial results. Surety's Chairman of the Board and CEO Ralph Mendoza stated, "Surety's net income for the quarter was $17,973, a 13.6% increase over the same quarter ended December 31, 2013 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 of $52,493, a 6.8% increase over the same period ended December 31, 2013. This increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in expenses." Mendoza further stated, "This is the sixteenth quarter in a row that Surety has had a net income from its ordinary business operations. The Company is continuing its efforts to grow its customer base within the Hispanic funeral home receivable financing segment and its net income is impacted not only by competitive lending sources, but by factors that impact the demand for funeral home receivable financing in general and its cost of capital." Mendoza finally stated, "Our decision last year to conserve cash and direct earning back into the Company by not continuing to incur the cost to have the Company pay fees to be quoted on the OTC Market and publish the required reports has significantly contributed to maintaining a positive trend in net income, however it has resulted in marginal to no trading in our shares and a 'stop sign' issued by the OTC. The last reported trade of $.01 per share would indicate our market capitalization is less than three times our annual earnings for the past twelve months. While there are many factors that influence the volume and value of our share trading, we believe that with our growth and consecutive quarters of positive earnings our Company's stock is undervalued and represents an opportunity to invest in itself. Therefore, the Board of Directors is considering authorizing the purchase of our stock in the open market. Should the Company determine to make such purchases it will attempt to follow the safe harbor guidelines set forth in SEC Rule 10b-18. Further, we trade as if we are a 'penny stock' but we only have sixteen million shares outstanding while 'penny stocks' usually have at least 100 times the number of shares we have outstanding!"
CEO, Chairman Mendoza stated, "The Board of Directors received shareholders' approval that Surety convert its domicile to the State of Texas from Delaware with a revised authorized share structure." Surety Capital Corporation currently has 16,520,973 shares of common stock $.01 par value outstanding out of an authorized 20,000,000 shares.
