NewMarket Technology, Inc.: NewMarket Technology, Inc. Achieves Major Milestone and Unlocks Company's Potential to Grow From $1
DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - October 12, 2009) - NewMarket Technology, Inc. (
"We had been limited in our ability to fully use all the Company's resources to grow the Company as a result of the contract that we ended last week," said Philip Verges, CEO of NewMarket. "Most of the Company's assets had been held as collateral as part of the agreement with the hedge fund. The Company's common stock was also encumbered as a security in the agreement. Now that the hedge fund relationship is terminated, NewMarket is in a substantially improved position to fully use the Company's resources to support aggressive growth. Also, the Company's common stock is now free of any appreciation resistance that may have resulted from the agreement with the hedge fund."
