We are on the way to the public equity markets. First stop is the OTC Pink Sheets.
There are four reasons why we, BENE IO, aim for a listing on the public securities market.

The first reason is to break through the conventional opacity of the network marketing business in Japan. As a public company, in order to be listed we would be required to disclose our financial statements. BENE IO would like to emphasize this point as we aim to be a transparent network marketing company.

The 2nd reason is that we hope our members would participate in the management of BENE IO. The traditional networking business has been merely, to require that the members work within a structured marketing system of the company. This is regrettable as it tends to be, in the long run, regarded not in a favorable light. Our target is to make stockholders out of our sales members and develope a common interest between the members and the company, which we believe would help induce a bond of trust.

The third reason is that we are going to be the first Japanese network marketing company to be publicly listed. We are grateful that we can share this step-by-step growth of BENE IO, and we hope all of the members would feel proud of our target of being OTC listed. We feel we must be forward looking even if the Japanese economy is not in its best condition.

The 4th reason is that although the U.S. business model has initiated the presence of networking marketing, we feel that the steps we are taking now for Bene could be brought to the American market, as we are laying the foundation for a new model of network marketing.

Although Bene IO was incorporated in Delaware which is located midway between New York and Washington D.C., about 2 hours by car from New York, our headquarters is located in New York City. For the reader’s reference, many of the S & P 500 companies were incorporated in Delaware due to its corporate friendly laws and statutes.

The start of our progress to reach our goals began with BENE IO, Inc.

going public on the Over-The-Counter market. BENE IO, Inc. is a shareholder company registered in the United States whose function is to be the parent company of BENE IO Co, Ltd.

Soon, the interests of the company and its members will be able to converge with each other as 1) the members will be able to purchase stock in the company, and 2) as Bene IO, Inc. intends to become an SEC reporting company allowing it to be listed on the OTCBB. But our sights are higher: as we (the members & the Company) grow together, Bene IO intends eventually, once we qualify, to go to the NASDAQ Small Cap Market.
