ICRD International Card Establishment Inc (CE)

For the quarter ended March 31, 2009, I.C.E. had net revenue of $1,517,714 and a net loss of $(67,536) ($0.00 per share) versus net revenue of $1,940,679 and a net loss of $(5,545) ($0.00 per share) for the comparable year ago period.

Net revenues decreased by $422,965 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 due mainly to the poor economy, as well as continued attrition of merchant accounts and tighter credit policies.

"While a difficult economic environment precipitated a reduction in revenue, we were able to hold the line on expenses as well, to end up with a small loss," said William Lopshire, CEO I.C.E. "During the quarter we invested in an ambitious new web-based marketing program -- visible at www.liftmysales.com -- that we believe will generate significant exposure for our proprietary Loyalty and promotional products."

Mr. Lopshire added, "While accounting regulations dictate that we expense the sums expended on these programs, we feel that they will establish the foundation for a new marketing paradigm that will reduce our future sales and marketing costs, as well as produce increases in revenues. Lastly, we continue to work on launching several new marketing initiatives that we expect to help us build our top line numbers."
