MONTREAL – April 25, 2006 -- TelePlus Enterprises,
Inc. (NASDAQ OTCBB: TLPE) (Frankfurt: YT3.F)
(http://www.teleplus.ca) (“TelePlus” or

März 2006 für das erste Quartal bekannt. Die Umsätze im März erreichten USD 2.47 Mio. Das ist der bisher größte Monatsumsatz der Gesellschaft und stellt für das Quartal einen neuen Rekord dar.
"Die vorläufigen Q1 Ergebnisse zeigen deutlich, dass wir auf dem richtigen Weg sind." sagte Marius Silvasan, CEO von TelePlus.

Die Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, die Silvasan gegenüber Investoren und Shareholdern betreibt, ist m.E. vorbildlich. Wenn jedes börsengelistete Unternehmen seine Shareholder dermassen auf dem Laufenden hält, dass fast jede Woche eine neue News kommt, könnten viele wahrscheinlich beruhigter schlafen. Meines Erachtens ist Teleplus, im Vergleich zu vielen anderen Werten an der OTCBB, (wieder) ein relativ zukunftssicheres Investment.Und die momentanen Kurse sind Schnäppchenpreise. Aber dummerweise kaufen die meisten erst, wenn sie sehen, wie gut der Kurs rennt, und steigen dann bei 70 oder 80 cent ein. Dann macht die breite Masse vielleicht noch 100 %, die ersten, die drin waren, jedoch einige hundert % ! Und die letzten beissen wieder mal die Hunde...
Aber das war immer so und wird immer so bleiben. Irgendwo muss ja der Gewinn oder Verlust herkommen...
(Meine persönliche Meinung ! Niemand soll damit zum Kauf oder Verkauf angeregt werden.)

COMPANY PROFILE
Teleplus Enterprises, Inc., (www.TelePlus.ca)
headquartered in St. Laurent, Quebec, Canada,
provides wireless and landline telecommunications
services across North America, targeting primarily the
unbanked marketplace, one of the fastest growing
segments of the telecommunications industry
composed of credit-challenged customers. Through its
wholly owned subsidiary, TelePlus Wireless Corp., the
Company resells flexible and cost-effective prepaid
cellular network access to distributors and direct
subscribers in the U.S. Immediately before the 2005
yearend, the Company acquired the assets of Liberty
Wireless, the 3rd largest mobile virtual network
operator (MVNO) on the Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network, becoming one of the top ten prepaid
wireless resellers in the country. Following four
acquisitions in 2005, the Company’s other wholly
owned subsidiary, TelePlus Connect Corp., provides a
variety of landline telecom solutions, including prepaid
and postpaid local, long distance and internet
services, as well as other integrated telecom offerings
to multi-location organizations. As of December 31,
2005, the Company had a total of over 47,000
wireless and landline subscribers. In January, the
Company began building its sales force and opened a
support office in Miami, Florida devoted to aggressive
expansion of the Liberty Wireless business.
Compared to the Company’s fiscal 2005 revenues,
which consisted of $8,092,689 revenue from
continuing operations, and $11,043,352 from
discontinued operations, due to a February 2006
divestiture of Teleplus Retail Services Inc., an
unprofitable wholly owned subsidiary operating a
chain of retail stores with wireless and portable
communication devices, the Company’s announced
preliminary results in the first quarter exhibit
substantial growth. As a testament to its successful
integration of the Liberty Wireless business, the
Company reported record revenues of $6.78 million
for the three months ended on March 31, 2006.
Trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol
TLPE, the Company is positioned to exploit the rapidly
growing prepaid wireless market segment and other
specialty niches in the North American
telecommunications industry.
WIRELESS
Operating as an MVNO, the Company offers prepaid
wireless services in the U.S. Following its acquisition
of the Liberty Wireless business from Star Number,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of InPhonic, Inc.
(NASDAQ: INPC), on December 29, 2005, the
Company concentrates on reselling services carried
over the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, which
reaches more than 250 million people in more than
4,000 cities and communities in the U.S. The
Company’s operations are supported by a back-office
systems platform provided by Technology Services,
LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of InPhonic, Inc.,
pursuant to a Mobile Virtual Network Enabler (MVNE)
agreement signed concurrently with the acquisition.
The MVNE ensures the Company’s procurement,
activation, billing and customer care based on selfservice
web and speech recognition technology.
The Company’s services are targeted primarily to the
unbanked segment of the wireless market and
marketed to consumers and distributors by the
Company’s growing sales force and through its
websites at www.libertywireless.com and
www.vivaliberty.com, which is specifically aimed at the
Hispanic population. The Company’s customer
procurement efforts are strengthened by a lead
generation agreement signed with Inphonic, Inc. in
January. Pursuant to the agreement, Inphonic, Inc.
agreed to refer to the Company a minimum of 25,000
potential customers per week at a price of $1 per lead,
by delivering contact information for its website
visitors who placed postpaid service orders with one
of the major national network operators, but have not
qualified under the carrier’s credit requirements.
Furthermore, in January the Company opened a
Miami, Florida office for wireless sales and distribution
channels support. Finally, in March the Company
sponsored the Intele-CardExpo, the leading world
event for the prepaid industry held in Miami, and it
intends to promote its products and nurture
commercial relationships at similar prestigious
venues.
Liberty Wireless Service Plans The Company’s
flexible and cost-effective minute-based prepaid
plans, which do not require credit checks, contracts or
deposits and avoid surprise overage fees or early

termination charges, include free long distance, free
nationwide roaming, and free calling features, such as
caller ID, voice mail and 3-way calling. The
Company’s new series of calling packages launched
in February also offers benefits traditionally
associated with postpaid plans, including unlimited
evening and weekend calling and day time per minute
rates as low as $0.05. The customers can pay for their
plans by phone and in hundreds of retail locations in
the U.S. They can also manage their account through
an online interface, paying for service, viewing calling
history, buying add-on minutes and updating user
profile. In addition to these great service plans, Liberty
Wireless also offers a wide selection of mobile
phones, including many top models that are free after
rebate.
TELECOM
Throughout 2005, the Company completed three
acquisitions of operating telecommunication service
resellers, which established the Company’s position in
the prepaid and postpaid landline telecom
marketplace in Canada. In April, the Company
acquired Freedom Phone Lines Ltd, an Ontario based
Bell Canada reseller of prepaid local and long
distance services with 3,300 customers in the
unbanked market segment. In June, the Company
purchased Avenue Reconnect Inc., an Ontario based
reseller of prepaid local, long distance and internet
services with over 2,000 residential customers. And in
July, the Company acquired Telizon Inc, an Ontario
based reseller of a wide range of landline services
and an internet service provider servicing over 18,000
commercial and residential lines. Telizon Inc. offers a
full In addition to local dialtone, long distance and tollfree
numbers, Telizon offers more complex
telecommunication solutions include centrex lines,
unique lines and other services for multi-location
institutions such as school boards, credit unions, real
estate companies and a variety of municipal
organizations. The Company’s landline operations are
supported by a state-of-the-art fully integrated resell
operations technology platform, which was previously
used to support the AT&T Canada resell business
with 120,000 commercial lines. Highly scalable, the
operating support system provides full financial and
billing control, carrier billing reconciliation, customer
care and provisioning.
INDUSTRY
From the standpoint of its recent tenth anniversary
mark, the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the most
comprehensive legislation since 1934 designed to
deregulate the U.S. communications industry and
promote competition, has certainly had dramatic
impact, resulting in continual corporate restructuring
driven by massive merger and acquisition activities,
intensified technological innovation and rapid
development of new products and services. From a
level of approximately $419 billion in 1997, total
spending on equipment and services in the U.S.
telecommunications industry more than doubled to an
estimated $856.9 billion in 2005, with 8.9% growth
achieved last year and 10.2% expected in 2006,
according to a recent 2006 Telecommunications
Market Review and Forecast report released by the
Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA), the
leading trade organization for the information and
communications technology industry in the country.
Adapting to evolving demographic trends and
customer preferences, the industry quite predictably
embraced mobility as the key component of all
communications capabilities and somewhat less
expectedly advanced the significance of prepaid
telephony services, especially in the wireless sector.
As wireless technology steadily uprooted traditional
landline telecommunication modes over the past
decade, effectively neutralizing its dominance, the
wireline landscape was plagued by falling subscriber
base and declining service revenues, with only phone
cards and prepaid dialtone emerging as relative bright
spots. Out of the total 2005 U.S. telecommunications
service market of $310.8 billion landline service
revenue accounted for $192.3 billion, recording its fifth
consecutive year of decline, while wireless service
revenue continued its uninterrupted double-digit
growth from about $27 billion in 1996, reaching
$118.6 billion. However, last year’s 1.4% decrease in
the landline network service revenues represented the
smallest drop since 2000, and after further moderating
its decline the market is expected to start expanding in
2008, climbing back to the 2005 level of $192.3 billion
by 2009. At that time, total spending on wireless
services, which grew 10.4% in 2005 and totaled
$174.7 billion, is expected to reach $180.4 billion,
expanding at a compounded annual growth rate of
11.1% between 2005 and 2009.
Wireless telecommunications is a global phenomenon
that propelled mobile phones to become one of the
fastest growing and widely owned consumer
electronics products in history. During 2005,
worldwide mobile phone sales totaled a record 816.6
million units, growing 21% from 2004, with North
America accounting for 148.4 million, according to
Gartner Group, Inc., one of the world’s largest IT
research and advisory companies. TIA forecasts that
global wireless service revenues will surpass landline
already in 2006 and reach $727.8 billion by 2009. At
the same time, the number of wireless subscribers in
the world will grow from 1.8 billion in 2005, pass 2
billion in 2006, and reach 2.6 billion in 2009. Paul
Budde Communications even foresees that high
growth in populous new emerging markets could yield
up to 5 billion subscribers worldwide over the next 15
to 25 years.
North America has traditionally lagged other
developed regions in terms of mobile subscriber

penetration. Comparing to some countries in Western
Europe and Asia, where subscription rates sometimes
exceed 100% of the entire population, the U.S. with
approximately 66% penetration and Canada with 54%
still present a fertile market opportunity for rapid
expansion. As prices have fallen and services have
improved, the number of wireless subscribers in the
U.S. has grown from 38.2 million in 1996 to 194.5
million in 2005, for the first time surpassing landline
subscriptions of 172.1 million, according to TIA. New
wireless subscriptions set a new annual record in
2005, reaching 25 million nationwide. TIA expects
wireless penetration in the U.S. to rise to 88% by
2009, which would translate into 278.5 million
subscribers. According to alternative but trendconfirming
estimates gathered by Informa Telecoms &
Media, a leading provider of business intelligence to
global telecoms and media markets based in London,
the U.S. mobile penetration as of December 2005 was
just under 70% with 205 million subscribers, and is
expected to increase to 87% in 2010. A recent report
by Wireless World Forum, a global consultancy firm,
forecasts 63% penetration in Canada by 2007.
A large portion of this next massive wave of growth in
North America is widely expected to come from
prepaid subscriptions, a market segment which
already accounted for 54.5% of the global subscriber
base at the end of June 2005, serving over 1 billion
users and contributing 62% of the mobile service
market growth in twelve preceding months, according
to the 6th Edition of Global Mobile Prepaid Strategies
and Forecasts published in January 2006 by Informa
Telecoms & Media. The number of prepaid wireless
subscribers in the U.S. more than doubled between
2002 and 2005, reaching 28.9 million, which
comprising nearly 15% of all wireless subscribers is
still very low by global standards. Growing at a
compounded annual growth rate of 9.3%, TIA predicts
there will be 34.7 million prepaid wireless subscribers
in 2006 and 41.3 million in 2009. The prepaid
segment’s $9.9 billion 2005 revenues are projected to
grow even faster, at 22.3%, reaching $13.8 billion in
2006 and $22.2 billion in 2009, according to TIA’s
estimates which were confirmed by leading
telecommunications research consultancy ATLANTICACM
in its latest analysis of the prepaid sector,
Prepaid Insights 2005-2009: Sizing Up Markets,
Opportunities and Players.
Despite an overwhelming dominance of the U.S.
wireless marketplace by four leading network
operators, the prepaid segment is expected to be
exploited primarily by recently emerging MVNOs,
which resell the networks’ services under private
labels catering to well-defined market niches. The
MVNO model was first developed in Europe and
launched by the likes of Virgin Mobile in England and
Wireless Maingate in Sweden. Following recent
massive consolidation, the U.S. market is currently
dominated by: (i) Cingular Wireless (54.1 million
users), a joint venture between SBC Communications
and BellSouth (NYSE: BLS), which acquired AT&T
Wireless in October 2004; (ii) Verizon Wireless (51.2
million users), a joint venture between Verizon
Communications (NYSE: VZ) and Vodaphone (NYSE:
VOD); (iii) Sprint Nextel (NYSE: S) (47.6 million
users), formed by a merger completed in August
2005; and (iv) T-Mobile USA (21.7 million users),
which is part of a group owned by Deutsche Telekom
(NYSE: DT), all four accounting for over three
quarters of nationwide subscribers, based on
respective 2005 yearend figures, and clearly
commanding the majority of the industry’s marketing
resources. However, with much of the roughly 100
million initially untapped potential subscriber base
disproportionately consisting of a wide range of ethnic,
youth, credit-challenged, budget-conscious and other
key demographic niches, specialized marketers are
likely to have a competitive advantage over larger
operators, which over the years focused on traditional
long term contracts with postpaid subscribers.
Although prepaid wireless services present the large
carriers with a way to grow and diversify their
revenue, as well as potentially introduce their postpaid
offerings, the inverse relationship between size and
niche marketing ability is confirmed by the fact that TMobile
is the most successful of the four in luring the
prepaid segment, which accounted for about 31% of
its 4.4 million net added subscribers in 2005, yet still
forms only 15% of all its user base. Cingular and
Verizon Wireless recently announced new prepaid
plans with unlimited free calls to other subscribers
within the carrier's network, however that may still not
be enough of a targeted approach to reach, for
example, the U.S. based Hispanic community, the
fastest growing demographic group of 39 million,
which spends longer on their phones than any other
minority group, according to Visiongain, a London
based wireless industry intelligence group with offices
in San Francisco. Taking alternative strategy, Sprint
Nextel is known for its aggressive courting of MVNO
partners, which include among others Virgin Mobile
USA, Qwest International and Mobile ESPN. As such,
the Yankee Group, which estimated that 13.4 million
U.S. wireless customers received service through
resellers in 2005, expects the figure to rise to 29
million in 2010. At the same time, Atlantic-ACM
predicts that MVNOs will capture 72% of U.S. prepaid
wireless subscribers by 2010.
COMPETITION
Within the highly competitive telecommunications
industry, the wireless sector, which has recently
undergone massive consolidation, seems to lead the
way. According to the FCC, 97% of the U.S.
population currently lives in counties served by at
least three mobile operators, an increase from 88% in
2000. In addition to the major quartet of Cingular
April 28, 2006

Wireless, Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel and TMobile
USA, other relatively large network operators
include Alltel and US Cellular (AMEX: USM). Various
niche players in the wireless landscape include
regional and local companies such as Cricket
Communications in the Midwest, or Cellular One with
Dobson Cellular Systems, both owned by Dobson
Communications Corporation (Nasdaq: DCEL) and
targeting rural markets. The Company competes most
directly in the prepaid segment against MVNOs,
including TracPhone and Virgin Mobile USA, which
lead this space and others, such as Boost Mobile,
Bravo Wireless and U Mobile, as well as other private
label services like ESPN’s and 7-Eleven’s.

of the Liberty Wireless operations, the Company
announced total preliminary revenues for the quarter
ended March 31, 2006, have reached $6.78 million.
Having benefited from the successful integration of its
wireless reseller acquisition and a roll-out of marketing
initiatives for the prepaid mobile segment, as well as
several comprehensive landline telecommunication
service contracts with multi-location institutions
announced in the recent months, March 2006
represented the Company’s highest revenue month of
$2.47 million in sales. Following the acquisitions in the
Canadian traditional telecommunications, the
Company has already achieved positive EBITDA in
the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2005. In its preliminary
monthly reports this year, it announced positive
EBITDA of over $427,000 combined for January and
February, and even marginal net profitability. The
Company could be assumed to build on this earnings
trend for the rest of 2006, lest the costs associated
with additional marketing activities accumulate
disproportionately to the sales growth.
As the Company achieves more significant economies
of scale, perhaps by recruiting active effective
wireless distributors and winning additional landline
service contracts, the Company could move from the
verge of break-even point toward consistent
profitability before yearend 2006. According to its
previous estimates, the management expects the
Company to generate revenues in excess of $30
million in 2006, without the benefit of additional
acquisitions, and foresees annual EBITDA of $2.5 –
3.5 million, which should result in meaningful net
profit. The Company’s planned continued acquisitions
strategy currently focusing on regional wireless
targets with revenues in the range of $3 to $20 million,
could have a further positive impact, assuming the
integration is successful.
With a negative net operating cashflow in 2005 and
some burden resulting from last year’s acquisitions, as
of December 31, 2005 the Company had a negative
net working capital of $4,056,348, a situation which
may have been slightly ameliorated by the improving
operating results in the first three months of 2006. In
December 2005, the Company issued secured
convertible debentures to Cornell Capital Partners, LP
raising $9,225,000, $5,625,000 of which was used to
repay the previous round of debt financing. In
connection with the transaction, the Company also
issued a warrant to purchase 33,000,000 shares of
the Company's common stock. As a result, as of
April 28, 2006
Page 5 of 5
December 31, 2005, the Company’s net worth was
$784,936.
At current levels, the shares appear to present an
excellent opportunity for speculative long-term
investors willing to accept the general high risks
associated with emerging growth companies, such as
potential dilution, net working capital deficit, lack of
profitability and relatively large accumulated
shareholders’ deficit, the relative lack of trading
liquidity and substantial price volatility of bulletin board
companies, foreign risks related to international
operations, including currency exchange fluctuations,
as well as certain business risks, such as intense
competition in the telecommunications and especially
the wireless industry. Given the management’s stated
goal of reaching $100 million in revenue by 2008 and
the relatively high probability of substantial profitability
of a few cents per share at these operating levels, the
Company’s shares could appreciate to reflect the
long-term potential, assuming the management can
consistently deliver rapid revenue growth goals and
steadily improve profit margins. Since the details of
operating results for the first quarter of 2006 are not
yet disclosed, the shares could also experience
shorter-term demand in anticipation of a surprise and
a continued investor interest, if the results are
encouraging and augur an imminent turnaround.

three months, the

Dear Valued Shareholders
TelePlus Showcased
in the Spring issue of Equities Magazine
MONTREAL – May 8, 2006 -- TelePlus Enterprises,
Inc. (NASDAQ OTCBB: TLPE) (Frankfurt: YT3.F)
(http://www.teleplus.ca) (“TelePlus” or
the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Equities
Magazine showcased TelePlus in their most recent
issue. The article discusses in great lengths Liberty
Wireless, the Company’s prepaid MVNO business and
points out to the phenomenal growth which will occur
in the wireless industry in the years ahead. The
author comments “the unbanked market for wireless
services – accomplished by risk-free pre-paid plans –
is the fasted growing segment in telecommunications
today, accounting for more than $10 billion in
revenues in North America and expected by some
analysts to reach $32 billion by 2008”.
CEO Marius Silvasan recently commented “most
competitors don’t understand, or simply don’t have
the capability, to adequately service pre-paid
customers, which creates a tremendous opportunity
for TelePlus to go after those people”.

aber spass beiseite:
Die Website wird optimiert, gute leute eingestellt, das erste quartal bestens gelaufen, positive analysten, jetzt der Zeitungsartikel (siehe weiter unten)- aber da laufen grottenschlechte otcbb-werte zur höchstform auf, obwohl nur wenige hunderttausend umsatzdollar, aber ein angeblich geniales konzept, oder eine ölklitsche, aber was schnell steigt, fällt auch schnell.
mir persönlich gefällt derzeit jedenfalls kein otcbb-wert so gut wie teleplus. und mit dem kurs wirds sicherlich auch noch was werden: wenn ein übernahmekandidat vorgestellt wird, der wieder ein guter umsatzbringer wird oder ein deal mit einem großen player klappt, gibts hier wohl ein feuerwerk.
aber hier erstmal die heutige news, falls nicht schon von jemand anderen zwischenzeitlich reingestellt:
