The announcement, made Tuesday, confirmed that the company, based in Wall Township, New Jersey, had obtained a firm commitment from Black Swan Capital Group, Inc. for $10 million funding which would provide substantial new working capital, scheduled to close before the end of this month.

George J. Coates, President and CEO said, “this is a significant milestone in enabling the Company to proceed with its plans and I am very excited because this will enable us to ramp up production and fulfill orders for the Coates CSRV Natural Gas Industrial Electric Power Generator Sets to our customers throughout the Western Hemisphere.”

Coates has been in research and development for approximately 15 years on a new CSRV (Coates Spherical Rotary Valve) combustion engine, which is patented worldwide. The research and development phase is now completed and CIL is gearing up for production and distribution of its new engines.

About Penny Stocks

The term "penny stocks," also known as micro-cap equities, micro caps, small caps, pink sheets, refers to shares in a company that trades for less than $5.00. Most penny stocks trade on the OTCBB market and the pink sheet electronic quotation service. Penny Stocks can be very volatile and can see gains as much as 500% in a day. Volatility in penny stocks is also dangerous because penny stocks can come down as quickly as they go up. If you trade penny stocks based on stock picks, make sure to always do your due diligence on the companies you're considering, use stop loss orders, and book your profits when you are in a position to do so.
