ActionView International, Inc., incorporated on January 26, 1986, custom-designs, markets and manufactures illuminated programmable motion billboard signs for use in airports, mass transit stations, shopping malls and other high traffic advertising locations designed to reach people on the go with targeted messaging. The Company operates business through its wholly owned subsidiary, Action View Advertising Systems, Inc. (ActionView), which offers billboard poster signs with a four-foot by six-foot signs. The Company's business has two revenue streams: advertising revenues from Company-owned signs placed in high traffic locations being shared with advertising agencies, location owners and local business partners, and sale of signs to franchise operators along with on-going royalty revenue from the advertising generated from these signs in the local market areas. In May 2005, the Company subsidiary ActionView Far East Limited (AVFE) entered into a five-year agreement with Chuangrun Media Ltd. Chuangrun is responsible for obtaining site locations and advertisers for the Company-owned scrolling signs; the Company is responsible for the delivered cost of manufactured signs, and AVFE is responsible for the installation and on-going maintenance of the signs. In China, the company, through AVFE, has contracted with Chuangrun Media to place signs in Chuangrun's customers' facilities. The first two of these were the MTR railway and the Guangzhou airport. The MTR railway has been put on hold to focus on the airport contracts with signs now scheduled for installation in 2006. Further airport contracts are being negotiated by Chuangrun. In June 2005, AVAU entered into a three-year agreement with Open Media Management Pty Ltd (Open Media), an Australian corporation with ties to the advertising community and business establishment in Australia and New Zealand. Open Media and AVAU are responsible for obtaining the site locations and the advertisers along with installation and on-going maintenance of the Company-owned scrolling signs, and the Company is responsible for the delivered cost of manufactured signs. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the ActionView sign was tested in McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas. The testing is completed and airport management and their advertising company are in the process of determining the use of the ActionView signs in this location. The company has developed several custom designed signs in different sizes to suit specific customer needs. The products include original four by six sign scrolling 12 poster advertisements, 3.5 x 5 double sided scrolling 12 poster advertisements with light emitting device (LED) display on top, 3.5 x5 signs scrolling 12 poster advertisements, 3.5 x5 sign scrolling six advertisements, six by nine sign portrait mode scrolling 5 poster advertisements, 5 x10 sign scrolling 4 poster advertisements and 5 x15 sign scrolling 3 poster advertisements. The Company also designs and distributes a four-foot by six-foot non-scrolling (static) sign with a depth of five inches, which is ideal for narrow passageways where advertising on the walls has typically been confined to non-backlit products. ActionView is dependent on a few major customers. These are Chuangrun Media Ltd. in China and Open Media Management Pty Ltd in Australia. In North America ActionView markets its products and services to the large multi store chains, movie theaters, gas stations, and airports. It has been the Company's experience that prior to committing to a purchase or entering into a franchise or strategic alliance, customers typically request a testing period of 3 to 12 months to determine mechanical dependability of the signs; to identify sales uplift for advertised products, and to understand customer comfort with the new scrolling technology. The Company competes with Clear Channel Group, Infinity (Viacom) Inc., JC Decaux Group, Pattison Outdoor Inc., EYE Corp, Cody Outdoor GOA Billboards, Revolution, Postermatic and Charvet-Industrie.
