Mr. Libratore further commented, "This a very exciting time at Liberator
Medical because we are rapidly approaching the point of critical mass. In
other words, when the Company spends money on advertising we get a multiple
of that number back in revenue, 10X in less than 2 years, and 20X in less
than 5 years. This is the result of the increase in repeat business from
new customer acquisitions. As Liberator exceeds the break-even point in
the near future, additional advertising dollars become available from the
increased cash-flow."
