"We expect strong organic growth across each of our businesses
in fiscal 2012, driven by strong demand from our two largest
customers, Sinopec and China National Petroleum," began Mr.
Jianzhong Zuo, Chairman, Chief
Executive Officer and President of LianDi. "By meeting key
infrastructure needs of the largest oil and gas producers in
China, we anticipate our core
equipment and software businesses to be key growth conduits. We
believe the addition of the sludge treatment services through our
partnership with System Kikou will leverage new government mandates
to provide incremental, high margin revenue. We are also excited
about the long-term growth prospects for our specialty chemicals
business, Anhui Jucheng, which expands our product portfolio to
another market vertical. We will continue to evaluate ways to
expand our product and service portfolio as we move through
2011."
The Company's software business has expanded from what was
initially a proprietary system to now include broad based
applications with enhanced functionality. In order to meet customer
requirements, LianDi has incorporated other developers' software
modules into the system architecture and the cost associated will
impact margins. Management's goal is to consistently grow this
business during the next three years.
The Company's fiscal 2011 year ended on March 31, 2011. LianDi's fiscal 2011 financials
will be reported before June 30,
2011.
