LPC is in the early stages of revenue growth…

…but is already generating profits

Market Drivers
Tupuola continued, "Today, government entities such as OSHA and the EPA and labor unions have recognized the harmful impact on workers and the environment and are now applying pressure on companies that continue to use these out-of-date technologies. With our "Made in America" products, we believe we can offer superior alternatives to traditional abrasives, driving our financial performance and creating shareholder value over the long-term."

1) LPC estimates its target markets for laser cleaning to be $46 billion in North America…

2) Environmental and Safety - Laserblasting is the safe, clean, efficient and affordable alternative to existing techniques

1. Regulatory pressure from the EPA, FDA and OSHA to phase out existing cleaning using abrasives and chemical processes due to known environmental and health effects
2. Labor unions and organizations are applying pressure due to the impact of traditional methods on the health and safety of their members
3. Traditional methods generate a significant amount of energy and environmental waste that is eliminated by lower power Cleantech Laser Blasting

3) Increasing Demand for High Power Lasers

Application demands for higher power lasers have made these the fastest growing segment of the laser market, with a growing 44% market share.

Company-Specific Drivers

1) Cleantech Laser Blasting is highly disruptive

We intend to target new applications early in the development cycle and drive adoption by leveraging our strong customer relationships, engineering expertise and competitive production costs.

2) Cleantech Laser Blasting is a multi-market and multi-product approach
