Exhibit 99.1
FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
:
VILLAGEEDOCS ANNOUNCES
SALE OF ITS RESOLUTIONS BUSINESS UNIT
SANTA ANA, CA, Dec.
10, 2007-VillageEDOCS, Inc. (OTCBB:VEDO),
a Software as a Service company
providing proprietary on-demand outsource business solutions
,
today
announced that it has completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of
its wholly-owned subsidiary Phoenix Forms, Inc. (dba "Resolutions") to DocPath
Corp. for $970,000 in cash, plus the return of 10 million warrants with an
exercise price of $0.15 per share. These warrants were originally issued as
consideration in the acquisition of Resolutions by VillageEDOCS in April 2005, in
addition to $432,000 in cash and promissory notes in the aggregate of $200,000.
"In
November, we received an unsolicited offer for the sale of Resolutions and,
after careful consideration, felt it was in the best interests of the Company
and its shareholders to proceed with the transaction, which we view as being
very positive from a number of perspectives", stated Mason Conner, Chief
Executive Officer of VillageEDOCS, Inc.
"We
are quite pleased with the return on our initial investment and the resulting
reduction in our fully diluted share count with the return of the 10 million
warrants", Mr. Conner said. "The cash received from this transaction will
enable the Company to significantly reduce its debt with the immediate
satisfaction of a required payment of an $840,000 note due on December 12, 2007
under an existing line of credit with a financial institution that is secured
by the assets of our GSI subsidiary".
"In
addition, our previously announced pending acquisition of Questys, Inc., which
we expect to close by Dec 31, subject to normal closing conditions, will substantially
replace all of the functionality and services which Resolutions had provided. The
acquisition of Questys, with trailing twelve month sales of approximately $3.6
million and net income in the range of $250,000 to $300,000, will more than
make up for the loss of revenue and profit from the Resolutions business unit,"
Mr. Conner added.
