LocatePLUS CEO Jon Latorella stated, "The third quarter continued
our trend of triple-digit revenue growth, primarily as a result of
increased usage of our Internet-based product and the addition of a
significant channel partner. Cost as a percentage of revenue is not
expected to increase over the next several months as we have
acquired most the data planned for our online information systems.
Currently are gross margins are between 70 and 80%." Latorella
concluded, "We expect to generate strong revenues in the fourth
quarter, positioning us to achieve continued, substantial
improvements in 2006. Several large contracts are expected to come
to fruition next year, and revenue from these contracts will
directly contribute to bottom-line profits. We are pleased that a
recapitalization of the company has been approved by our
shareholders and we are focused on moving to a national stock
exchange in the near-term." Additional details on third quarter
