Information As
Of January 24, 2007 |
''Fiscal year 2006
was one of validation on multiple fronts for Pacific Sands,
our management and our shareholders. Through the combination
of careful management of our expense structure and a
dedication to a carefully crafted marketing and sales
strategy, Pacific Sands achieved its first ever profitable
quarter in the 4th quarter of fiscal 2006'
OverviewPacific Sands, Inc.
is a rapidly growing, reporting NASDAQ OTC BB company that
develops markets and sells unique, nontoxic, earth, health
and child-friendly products for cleaning, pet care and pool
/ spa / water maintenance applications. Their core nontoxic
product base utilizes a proprietary blend of botanicals,
mineral extracts and enzyme technologies to deliver safe,
effective and inexpensive alternatives for a broad range of
commercial and industrial applications.
Investment Highlights
- Pacific Sands, Inc. achieved it's first profitable
quarter in the company's history in 4th quarter of fiscal
2006 and demonstrated its 8th consecutive period of quarter
over same quarter sales growth in the 1st quarter of fiscal
2007 with a 68% in sales from the same period the previous
fiscal year.
- Pacific Sands ecoONE(R) products are now sold or
distributed by more than 200 retail outlets. The products
have also been added to the portfolio of major pool and spa
product distribution centers.
- Pacific Sands at the end of 2005 the company estimated
that between 50 and 70 new customers tried their spa system
every month. They now estimate that number to be nearing
1,700.
- Net cash used in operations was $96,403 for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 2006, down approximately 57% from the
$227,135 used the previous fiscal year. The decrease in net
cash used in operations is primarily attributable to a
continued increase in sales.
- Pacific Sands, Inc. has required substantially less
financing to fund operations primarily because of continuing
increased revenues and management's deferral of portions of
their salaries. Net cash provided by financing activities
was $102,268 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006, down
approximately 54% from the $221,260 for the previous fiscal
year.
Profile
Pacific Sands, Inc. is engaged in the manufacture, sale and
distribution of safe, nontoxic cleaning and water treatment
products for consumer and industrial uses. The company's
core product lines are nontoxic and incorporate a
proprietary combination of blended botanicals, pure mineral
extracts and "tuned" enzyme technologies to deliver safe,
effective and inexpensive alternatives for household
cleaning, pet care and pool and spa maintenance.
In a preliminary marketability study conducted by the
Wal-Mart Innovation Network, Pacific Sands core technology
received the highest "Success Likelihood Score" ever granted
in that program's 22 year history. The founder of the
program, Dr. Gerald Udel had this to say in his summary of
the evaluation: "(Pacific Sands) has a classic hinge pin
technology (and) such technologies are quite rare. Few
technological innovations have so many potential
applications and therefore, so many opportunities for
success."
The current management team of Michael Wynhoff
(President/CEO) and Michael Michie (Treasurer and VP of
Marketing and Sales) took control of Pacific Sands in June
of 2004. Since that time the company has achieved
significant and sustained revenue growth. The underlying
capital structure of the company has remained largely
unchanged. Management accomplished this by re-purchasing
company stock from previous management at a discount and
re-selling a portion of that stock as restricted shares to
qualified investors in order to fund operations and
marketing and sales efforts during the transition period.
The company has minimal debt, and expenses have remained
manageable and predictable since the management transition.
Expenses have increased at a substantially slower pace than
revenues, putting the company on a fast track to
profitability.
The company has no dilutive instruments such as warrants,
preferred stock, debenture or S-8 instruments outstanding.
Management options are for restricted stock.
Pacific Sands products are unique in their ability to meet
all three of the earth and health conscious consumer's
primary needs:
- Environment and health friendly,
- As effective, or superior to competing products
- Marketed at price points that are competitive with
conventional and often less health-friendly alternatives.
The EcoOne Product Line
"Simplify your life... Naturally With EcoOne" (TM)
EcoOne Spa Treatment System
The company's EcoOne Spa Treatment system was relaunched by
Pacific Sands' new management team in 2004 and has recently
gained acceptance from the nation's top distributors of pool
and spa products. The EcoOne system, or an "OEM" version of
it, is distributed with thousands of new spas and sold at
over 100 spa dealer outlets.
One of the world's top spa manufacturers began including
an OEM private-label version of the EcoOne system with every
spa they deliver in February of 2006.
EcoOne Spa Treatment is added to spa water, resulting in
the finest, easiest to use and safest water conditioner on
the market today. Spa water will be softer, clearer, with no
odors, no foam and no irritation to the eyes and skin.
EcoOne can greatly reduce the need for the vast majority of
existing complicated chemical spa care regimens.
The technology in EcoOne Spa Treatment is a unique
proprietary formulation of natural enzymes, minerals and
plant extracts that contains no chlorine, bromine or other
harsh chemicals.
The EcoOne 3 month starter kit contains everything needed
to transform a spa into a safe, nontoxic and odor free
experience. As a bonus, the kit comes packaged in an
attractive and reusable "6-pack" soft-side lunch cooler.
EcoOne Pool Conditioner
EcoOne technology is also applied to larger scale water
installations such as pools. EcoOne Pool Conditioner is a
nontoxic additive that reduces and/or eliminates scum lines,
scaling and cloudy water. It also helps to stabilize pH and
alkalinity by reducing chemical overuse. The product is
added once a month to condition water.
Product Line Diversification - EcoOne Spa Pre-Filter
Pacific Sands introduced the EcoOne Spa Pre-Filter in
early 2005. It is the result of a water chemistry research
project based on customer demands and concerns related to
initial water quality problems.
The EcoOne Spa Pre-Filter is able to solve most startup
spa and pool water problems without the use of chemicals.
The product saves money, time, and significant effort by
removing or reducing most common water contaminants from the
water as it is added to the pool or spa.
The EcoOne Spa Pre-Filter is swiftly becoming a pool and
spa industry standard for pre-treating problem water when
topping off pools and filling spas and is now distributed
through many of the industry's top product distributors.
New Market Application - Pacific Sands All-Purpose Hose
Filter
A sister product to the Spa Pre-Filter, Pacific Sands
introduced the Pacific Sands All-Purpose Hose Filter to the
retail market in June of 2005 via a short format direct
response TV ad campaign.
The Pacific Sands All-Purpose Home & Garden Hose Filter
easily attaches to either end of a garden hose to provide
fresh, pure, clean and decontaminated water for all outdoor
water needs.
The filter removes or greatly reduces thousands of common
water contaminants and hazards including chlorine, lead,
arsenic, mercury, DDT (and other pesticides), hydrogen
sulfide (rotten egg smell), VOC's & organic contaminants,
dissolved metals and scale-causing minerals.
The product is a "must have" for organic gardeners, pet
and pond owners, and parents who want to reduce their
children's exposure to chlorine and other contaminants in
their outdoor water supply.
Rainforest Blue
Pacific Sands is the master distributor for Rainforest
Blue, Bactericide Algaecide. Rainforest Blue is an easy to
use bactericide / algaecide system that safely maintains
your pool water without the chemical irritation, smell and
hassle of chlorine.
Non-irritating & non-allergenic, Rainforest Blue is an EPA
registered product that helps keep pools free of algae and
bacteria without using chlorine or bromine. One gallon
treats an average pool up to 2-3 months.
Household Cleaning Product Line
Pacific Sands launched its Household Cleaning product
line in May of 2006. The product line is based on many of
the same core technologies found in the water treatment
product lines, with different formulation profiles optimized
specifically for cleaing and surface treatment applications.
The Cleaning Product line introduces new formulations under
development since the 2004 management transition.
The products will be offered in whole-house kit
solutions, each designed for specific user groups,
particularly people with pets, children and environment /
health concerns. The multi-product kits will contain a
selection of products including EcoOne All-Purpose Household
Cleaner, Lemongrass Window and Glass Cleaner, Kitchen and
Bath Cleaners, Spot and Stain Removers, Carpet Shampoo,
Baby's Nursery Spray and other special application products.
The kits will range in price between $25 and $49 per unit
and individual products will retail between $3.95 and $7.95.
Pacific Sands will support the launch of the products
through a high-impact, brand awareness and direct sales
campaign in partnership with the Internet's most popular
environmental website, marketing directly to their more than
5 million registered user database. The company has
establishing retail and distribution outlets and is
contuinously taking pre-orders.
Designed with an overriding emphasis on child safety and
indoor air quality, all of the Eco One products contain no
VOC's, are chlorine and ammonia free and yet in testing
rival the performance, cost and quality of conventional
products available on store shelves today.
