Beneficial Holdings Closes Green Econometrics Acquisition
MONTVALE, NJ--(Marketwired - Apr 17, 2014) - Beneficial Holdings
Inc. (OTC Pink: BFHJ) (PINKSHEETS: BFHJ) today announced that its
Energy Management Subsidiary, BFHJ Energy Solutions, LLC, completed
its previously-announced acquisition of Green Econometrics.
The Company issued 600,000 restricted common shares and assumed
a two-year, $300,000 note to complete the transaction. Michael S.
Davies, Managing Director of Green Econometrics, will become an
Executive Vice President of Beneficial Holdings, Inc. and Chief
Operating Officer of the Company's energy management operation,
BFHJ Energy Solutions, LLC.
Green Econometrics (www.greenecon.net) provides industry level
analysis of the energy and renewable energy sectors and consulting
services to green technology companies and the 'built' environment;
including the finance, design, operation and validation of complete
energy management solutions. Among other engagements, Green
Econometrics was an energy management consultant to the New Jersey
Department of Transportation, designing and implementing a
state-of-the-art energy management system for their headquarters
building in Trenton, NJ.
Davies is a Chartered Financial Analyst and spent a significant
part of his career analyzing and consulting with small-cap and
mid-cap companies with break-through technologies. He is the author
of numerous articles on the economics of energy, alternative energy
and energy management technologies as well as the soon to be
published book "Analytics 2 Insight - Roadmap to Data Driven
Operations".
Davies, through Green Econometrics, served as a consultant to
Green RG for the past two years. He originated and structured the
recent historic re-lamping of the Lincoln Tunnel for the Port
Authority of New York/New Jersey. That project included a
collaboration with the Port Authority, Facilities Solutions Group
and Constellation Energy. As a result of his vision, the Port
Authority recorded an approximate 50% savings in operating expenses
for lighting all three tubes of the Lincoln Tunnel and cut their
replacement costs by a third. The project utilized Green RG's LED
lighting solution.
In his role as COO of BFHJ Energy Solutions, LLC, Davies will be
instrumental in creating value from Beneficial Holding's
recently-announced license arrangement with Green RG. His initial
emphasis will be to coordinate the integration of embedded sensors
for remote monitoring and adaptive control lighting across product
lines including Beneficial Holding's joint pursuit with Green RG of
its Jamaican solar powered LED streetlight project.
The Company's Chairman, President and CEO, Gregory N. Senkevitch
stated: "Mike Davies originated our transaction with Green RG. He
has significant experience in the integration of sensor technology,
'Big Data' and analytics with energy management solutions. He and
Green Econometrics have done significant research in the economics
of energy management and have identified several break-through
technologies and trends. The acquisition of Green Econometrics
gives us a significant leg up on our energy management business
segment and adds a credible, technology integrator for our
solutions team."
Davies added: "We are standing at the beginning of the movement
to integrate energy management with sensors, machine-to-machine
communications, data analytics and innovative technologies.
Beneficial Solutions has the capabilities to take advantage of this
trend. I look forward to combining my experience and insights to
the Company's focus on providing solutions to the 'built'
environment."
Senkevitch concluded: "Our due diligence over the past several
months indicated that Beneficial Holdings shareholders were best
served by structuring the previously-announced energy management
sector transactions as we did. With Green Econometrics, we have the
core of an energy management business. It will be easier to ramp up
under this structure than it would have been via a direct
acquisition of a products manufacturer. Beneficial Holdings is
about providing solutions to the 'built' environment. Green
Econometrics has solid, proven solutions, the contacts and the
vision to implement our plan at a much lower investment and shorter
time frame and higher profit retention than if we completed the
Green RG transaction as originally proposed."
