Industry
Competition
The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the CD replicating industry are price, turnaround time, capacity, service, quality and reliability, with price and turnaround time typically being the most important. The Company believes that it competes favorably with respect to each of these factors, and that the quality of its products and services, its low cost manufacturing operations, its ability to accommodate tight delivery schedules, and its flexibility in production creates significant competitive advantages. The Company may also face indirect competition from broadband on-line service providers, such as telephone, cable and internet service providers. The Company believes, however, that on-line delivery of data will not, for the foreseeable future, be a practical alternative for consumers due to significant time and hardware storage requirements to download the capacity of a CD or DVD. Existing technologies, such as digital audio tape, digital compact disc and the mini-disc could potentially compete with CD-ROM and currently compete with CD-Audio, but none of these existing technologies has achieved widespread consumer acceptance to date.
Business
Plan
The Company believes it distinguishes itself from its competitors through an operating strategy founded on the following key principles: (i) maintaining high-capacity manufacturing facilities at a single location, (ii) continuing to invest in technologically advanced manufacturing equipment, supported by strong in-house engineering capabilities, (iii) focusing on large production runs in order to maximize operational efficiency, and (iv) marketing the Company's services directly to senior executives of companies with high volume production requirements.
