Dow Jones Description
Franklin Capital Corporation ("Franklin", or the "Company") is a publicly traded, non-diversified internally managed, closed-end investment company that elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 ACT") on November 18, 1997. We were incorporated on March 31, 1987 as a Delaware corporation and have been listed on the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") since October 1, 1987. We are currently involved in providing capital and managerial assistance to early stage companies in the medical products, health care solutions, financial services and real estate industries. In the first half of 2004, we focused our investment strategy on the achievement of capital appreciation through long-term equity investments in start-up and early stage companies in the radio and telecommunications industries. However, beginning in June 2004, we undertook a strategic restructuring and recapitalization plan (the "RESTRUCTURING PLAN") which ultimately culminated in a subsequent change in control in our management and a shift in our business focus away from the radio and telecommunications industries toward the medical products, health care solutions, financial services and real estate industries. For more information SEE, "SUMMARY OF 2004 RESTRUCTURING PLAN AND CHANGE IN CONTROL."
