In February 2009, we entered the investor awareness market in addition to Cohen Research's traditional research and distribution markets. We felt we could bring the gold standard of securities analysis, the Cohen brand name into this market. We started www.grassrootsrd.com, our investor awareness website. Our reports are written by Grass Roots Research. We have created a condensed short version of our normal 149 page reports especially for this market. Our quality is not compromised in our shorter version reports.

Our reports:

1. Create academically defensible price targets: short term, intermediate term and long term price targets.
2. All of our reports on both websites model a company in three cases: Base, Optimistic, Pessimistic for 5 years through the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statements, including 5 year (DCF) discounted cash flow valuation price targets. These valuations can only be academically calculated if there is a 5 year cash flow forecast. No other research firm in the investor awareness markets does this.
3. We distribute our reports to approximately 5+million retail investors and 98% of all institutions.
4. We quarterback campaigns.
5. We act as consultants to our client companies if requested.
6. Our reports help client companies raise cash.

We feel the investor awareness market is valid and exists for liquidity purposes. State and federal regulations have made it very difficult for micro cap and small cap companies to finance themselves. IPOs and secondaries are very much a thing of the past.

Our purpose is to add credibility, brain power, intellectual capital, comprehensive securities analysis, forecasting and valuation to a market that lacks this depth of sophistication.
