2018 First Quarter Highlights – Consolidated Results:
industry, retailers and waste management companies evaluating such schemes. The Company expects to significantly increase European investments and market development activities over the next two years to ensure our participation in these new market opportunities.
Our investments in the most comprehensive and innovative RVM technology combined with our organizational investments well position the company for sustained market growth and increasing profitability. The company has adequate bank facilities/credit lines in place to fund our current market development activities. The company sees a very positive outlook for the business considerate of strengthening North America performance, continued market execution in Sweden, continued expansion in the European non-deposit markets and the significant potential for expansion tied to new container deposit legislation in Europe.
Envipco has the experience and technology to be a significant player in these new CDS European market opportunities. The company has demonstrated technology leadership and its ability to compete with a dominant competitor in the Swedish market. Our revolutionary bulk-feed "Quantum" continues to show strong consumer preference and this combined with the most complete offering of single-feed RVMs well positions the company for market success. The speed and scope of market developments necessitate that the company accelerate our European activities. This includes expansion of European head office, expansion of business development resources, engagement in legislative initiatives and engagement with retailers and potential demonstration pilots. These activities need to be combined with scaling our engineering and manufacturing capabilities to meet this significant market demand at the onset of new deposit markets. The company is currently evaluating plans and financing scenarios to undertake the necessary near-term (two year) investments to ensure our participation in these exciting market opportunities. As part of potential financing scenarios, the Company has included a shareholder proposal at the Annual General Meeting to authorize the Board to issue up to 20% of the current outstanding shares.
