CIBL, Inc. Reports (Unaudited) First Quarter Operating Results

CIBL, Inc. (“CIBL” or the “Company”; OTC Pink ®: CIBY) announces unaudited results for the quarter ending March 31, 2024. CIBL’s operations consist of Bretton Woods Telephone Company and World Surfer, Inc., providers of broadband and communication services in Northern New Hampshire (“New Hampshire Operations”).

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the New Hampshire operations generated revenues of $468,000, essentially the same as the prior year’s first quarter, while EBITDA, from the New Hampshire operations, before corporate expenses, was $142,000 in the 2024 period as compared to $135,000 in 2023.

During 2024, the Company acquired 21 of its shares at an average price of $1,857 per share. We now have 12,647 shares outstanding. Since its spin-off from LICT Corporation in 2007, CIBL has repurchased 13,769 of its shares for $19.1 million, or an average price of $1,387 per share.

On September 27, 2023, the Company announced, subject to regulatory approval, it will acquire 450 shares of Brick Skirt Holdings, Inc. (“Brick Skirt”), representing a 20% interest thereof, from LICT Corporation (“LICT”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,500,000, 40% of this interest was made in the third quarter of 2023, by issuing 300 CIBL shares to LICT, and the remaining interest is expected to be acquired in the balance of 2024. Brick Skirt, through subsidiaries, provides broadband and communication services to sections in western New York state.

CIBL’s Board of Directors continues to evaluate a broad range of strategic alternatives for the company to create shareholder value.
