Dow Jones Description

Gilman Ciocia, Inc. (together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, "we", "us", "our" or the "Company") was founded in 1981 and is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. We provide federal, state and local tax preparation services to individuals, predominantly in the middle and upper income tax brackets, accounting services to small and midsize companies and financial planning services, including securities brokerage, investment management services, insurance and financing services. As of June 30, 2008, we had 26 offices operating in three states (New York, New Jersey, and Florida). Our financial planning clients are generally introduced to us through our tax return preparation services, accounting services and educational workshops. We believe that our tax return preparation and accounting services are inextricably intertwined with our financial planning activities in our offices and that overall profitability will depend, in part, on the two channels leveraging off each other since many of the same processes, procedures and systems support sales from both channels. Accordingly, management views and evaluates the Company as one segment. We also provide financial planning services through approximately 54 independently owned and operated offices in 12 states. We benefit from economies of scale associated with the aggregate production of both our offices and independently owned offices. ...

Mr. Obus also serves on the board of directors of Layne Christensen Company. In April 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil action alleging that Nelson Obus, the Wynnefield Capital Funds, and two other individuals, in June 2001 engaged in insider trading in the securities of SunSource, a public company that had been in the portfolio of the Wynnefield Capital Funds for years. Mr. Obus, the Wynnefield Capital Funds, and the other defendants emphatically deny the allegations and are vigorously contesting the case, which remains in the early stages of discovery.
