Spectacular Solar
CEO Provides COVID-19 Update Regarding Company
Operations
Rahway, NJ -- April 7, 2020 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Spectacular Solar, Inc.
(OTC
PINK: SPSO), CEO Doug Heck has authored the following letter to keep
shareholders and investors abreast of the impacts that the
COVID-19 outbreak has had on Spectacular
Solar.
Dear Shareholders and
Potential Investors,
As
COVID-19
began spreading on a global
basis and gripped the media in January, I really
hoped and prayed that we would not be where we are
today. I was extremely concerned about the ripple
effects it would have on small businesses across our great country. My
concern was obviously well-founded,
but it has been
more of a shockwave than a ripple effect to the small business
community and to the global
economy.
I hope this letter
finds you and your family safe and that social distancing is an
absolute practice for you. As CEO, I have two families to be
concerned about. I have my family at home and I have all the people
that work for me as my Spectacular Solar family.
Since my last
letter, Gov. Murphy (D-NJ) shut down all non-essential
businesses in New Jersey and I support him for doing so. The office
at 1401 Witherspoon Road is closed and my essential
personnel are working from home. My goal since my last
correspondence has gone from keeping my people
safe from the coronavirus to keeping them safe and
employed.
As of this writing,
we have not laid anyone off nor do we intend
to. We have applied for a S.B.A. disaster loan to assist us with
payroll.
Loans such as these, when acquired for the purposes of
covering payroll, are eligible for forgiveness,
so it is our hope to acquire this funding to soften the blow while
keeping paychecks coming for my employees.
While we are not
operating at 100% capacity, we still have roofers working outdoors on a number of projects. Interior building work is
prohibited at this time. So as long it is safe
and legal
to do so, we will
continue to move towards completing these projects.
Earlier this
year, the SEC and
OTCMarkets
offered 45-day
extensions for publicly traded companies to file their annual
financial reports. We were hoping to avoid using
the extra time but once non-essential businesses were
shutdown
in Houston, where
the two firms handling our audit are
located, and here in New Jersey, we were left with little
choice but
to file for the extra time. We have made tremendous
progress in auditing 2018 and 2019 but as the resources of the
human variety diminished, so did our ability to have the audit
completed by
March 31.
Regarding
the share buyback,
we are still actively to trying to buy back older stock
certificates but have shelved buying shares on the open market
to later in the
year as
means of stockpiling cash. I had previously disclosed that
one of our directors was planning to buy shares on the
open market and that is still in play. But like everyone else, he
has had to measure the immediate impact of COVID-19 on his business
and cash flow, not to mention the impact of the immense broader
market drop on his personal portfolio. That being said, he is
committed to
purchasing SPSO shares on the open market
and a subsequent
form 4 will be filed with the SEC.
I know my sales
team is chomping at the bit to get back in action with
the
face-to-face
meetings with potential clients but that will have to wait
until it is safe to do so. In the meantime, they are
utilizing a variety of online means to connect with
people and have recently closed some residential
deals, which is outstanding
considering the
current situation. The bigger deals, which
require meetings with a significant amount of people
on
both sides of the
table, have been put on the back burner until this situation is
behind us.
Stay safe and stay
healthy!
Doug Heck,
CEO
