Let's Talk Recovery Inc. currently manages two upscale boutique treatment and recovery facilities for clients seeking rehabilitation from alcoholism and various other types of addiction and obsessive behaviors. Both locations offer full time presence of qualified staff and the healing tranquility of peaceful settings designed to help each individual overcome their addiction and re-introduce them to the positive vista of a life in balance. The Industry: Recovery The Recovery industry is currently a wildly fragmented industry, dominated by mom-and-pop businesses; exemplifying the classic example of an industry ripe for consolidation. As the industry starts to consolidate, the consolidator stands to benefit from the scale and services advantages that make it increasingly difficult to compete against. Additionally where a public company buys a private company, there is also often the boost of public-market verse private-market arbitrage.
Let's Talk Recovery, Inc. (LKRV.PK) is currently very uniquely positioned as a publicly traded recovery and treatment facility operator and aims to be that consolidating force in the industry. The boutique recovery facility business model has proven to be economically viable, socially beneficial and in high demand. LKRV will pursue acquisitions of additional facilities and resources increasing their revenue base and growing shareholder value in both the short and long term.
Market Statistics as of 2005: * 97% of Americans experience the effects of addiction. * Over 5 million Americans experience eating disorders. * Over 15,500 registered groups hold weekly NA meetings. * Over 15 million Americans are dependent on alcohol.
The recovery industry is defined in three dimensions: (1) Addiction, (2) Services and (3) Markets. Addictions include all types of addictive substances and compulsive behaviors. Services include the products and services that are offered by LKRV to the markets. LKRV markets include HMOs, individuals, governmental agencies, insurers and philanthropic organizations.
The LKRV Vision Based in Beverly Hills, California and operating as a Delaware for-profit corporation, LKRV provides recovery programs, through leadership, communications, and educational programs, and corporate services for those affected by addiction and companies engaged in the recovery business. LKRV provides responsive and profitable products and services to the recovery industry that inspire, educate and transform the lives of addicts and their friends, employers, and families.
LKRV Background The recovery business is large, growing and highly fragmented. The industry is populated by many companies and no single company is a dominant force or defacto standard. The LKRV concept and business model has the potential to create the consolidating force in this highly fragmented, and lucrative business.
Conceived by a group of senior business executives with extensive business, media, entertainment and recovery experience, LKRV is specifically dedicated to the needs of addicts, alcoholics, and the recovery industry.
LKRV has been forged out of a vision that a socially responsible company can be a profitable company. The company was formed around a set of core values that provide the recovery community with:
* Hope that there is a solution * A framework for choice * A pathway to a better future
Whether it's alcohol addiction, drug addiction, gambling addiction, spending addiction, smoking addiction, Internet addiction, sexual addiction, or an obsessive behavior, LKRV provides the forum, frameworks and methods to attack alcoholism and addiction head-on in order for the healing to begin.
