PR Newswire (US)
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Sept. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Global-E
Investments, Inc. (OTC:GEIV) (BULLETIN BOARD: GEIV) , soon to
become NowAuto Group, Inc., which recently acquired the assets of
NowAuto, Inc. (OTC:NWAU), which owns four auto dealerships in the
Southwest and is a Tier I provider of Navicom GPS and GSM products
and the Navicom GPS network, today announced record auto sales for
the month of August. NowAuto sold 297 vehicles in the month of
August, an increase of 26% from the previous month of July. The
auto sales are broken down by locations Phoenix, Arizona: 196
vehicles, up 19% from July. Sunburst Car Co. 3777 NW Grand Ave.,
Phoenix, AZ Mesa, Arizona: 53 vehicles, up 51% from July. 1366 W.
Broadway, Mesa, AZ Tucson, Arizona: 34 vehicles, up 31% from July.
2345 S. Craycroft, Tucson, AZ Tempe, Arizona: 14 vehicles, up 40%
from July. 814 N. Scottsdale Rd., Scottsdale, AZ NowAuto expects
the same month over month growth in September. "The NowAuto concept
is definitely working. We have targeted a niche market with great
success. What's impressive about the strong August sales numbers is
Sunburst Car Co. had one less auto auction than in July combined
with the hot summer in Arizona. In the past month, we have seen the
benefits from hiring additional sales staff at our locations and
successful advertising campaigns. The fall is one of the most
fruitful times in our market and we are engaged in further
marketing activities. By focusing almost exclusively on volume auto
sales, we have in a relatively short period of time created a
high-quality pipeline of new car trade-in vehicles for our
customers from recent new car employee pricing promotions," said
Scott Miller, CEO. "Even though I am pleased with our sales
results, I am excited to see NowAuto Group run more efficiently.
The four auto dealerships, finance division, and Navicom GPS are
all working smoothly as an organization and I expect to have a
record second half of the year. I am confident that NowAuto Group
is on the right path to succeed," said Miller. Last week, the
company announced preliminary unaudited results for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2005. For the quarter ended June 30, 2005 the
Company recorded consolidated revenue of approximately $6.3
million, an increase of 152 percent over the three-month period
ended March 31, 2005. Earnings per share for the quarter ended June
30 were approximately $0.17, an increase of 183 percent over the
previous quarter. The significant increase in results was
principally attributed to the acquisition of Sunburst Car Co.,
Inc., the largest independent volume dealership location in
Arizona, on March 31, 2005. Under NWAU shares outstanding this
would equate to $0.06 EPS for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.
