Commenting on these results, George S. Bernardich III, SeaView's Chairman & CEO stated: "The sales pace at the Company continues to pick up and we are on schedule to achieve record sales volume for 2003. The Company is achieving new milestones in Company history on a regular basis and we expect many more new achievements over the coming months. Our PowerLine Vision System (PLVS)(TM) is performing very well and we have several fleets currently testing the product to determine loss savings. Based on early feedback, we believe we will garner orders and contracts from these tests later this year. In addition, SecureView, 'camera in a light bulb', sales have been gradually growing especially since debuting as a very successful 'daily special' on Shop At Home Network TV and, we expect to return to the airwaves at Shop At Home Network TV very soon. SecureView also received some unexpected accolades as a leading edge technology product this past week on the Regis & Kelly Show. With our increase in product demand, the significance of our new strategic business alliance with China Silian will start to immediately bear fruit in the form of readily available product. We expect the first shipments of 100% Chinese manufactured SecureView product to begin shipping in late September. As a result, we should begin to achieve gross profit improvements over the coming quarters as we transition this and other products to manufacturing with China Silian. To support production, it is our immediate goal to strengthen our national sales force to maintain and increase our sales trend. On the numbers subject, our confidence is growing in our ability to achieve our operational breakeven point or better by the 4th quarter. And, we are aggressively working to repay and/or replace the current convertible debenture financing with debt and private placement financing in the near future. As a result of these efforts, we expect to significantly improve our balance sheet as early as the end of the 3rd quarter. In closing, I believe the Company is at a pivotal point and is ready to emerge as a worldwide leader in manufacturing and distribution of PowerLine products to consumer, commercial and industrial markets."
