What’s New?
We have exciting news to share! After experiencing much success in the Richmond Metropolitan area,
Green Clean has decided to expand into the Charlottesville area. The expansion will include new office
space, ergonomically correct, of course, and a brand new retail facility to house all our earth-friendly
products. We hope to be up and running in Charlottesville by mid-year. Naturally, we will continue our
excellent customer service here in the Richmond market without any interruption in service.
We certainly invite any and all referrals if you know of any companies in our new Charlottesville service
area that we could show the value of utilizing a “green” janitorial service for their business. We
appreciate your patronage over the past fifteen years and look forward to servicing you for many years
to come.
Wanting to Go Green, But Don’t Know Where to Start?
Beginning next month, Green Clean will be offering hour long seminars in the evening and on weekends
to anyone interested in learning how easy it is. If you would like more information, please contact our
Customer Service Department times and locations. Also, please stop by and see us in our booth at the
upcoming Mid-Atlantic Home and Garden Show. Learn how to bring the successful eco-friendly methods
used at our commercial sites into your home.
Employee of the Month!
We would like to recognize Leisa Malimali as this month’s Employee of the Month! Leisa has been
identified by co-workers and customers alike, as taking that extra step in providing the kind of customer
service the Green Clean family is so well known for. Our customers site that Leisa always returns calls
promptly and if she doesn’t know the right answer off the top of her head (which she usually does), she
researches the issue and gets the answer right back to them. We are proud of Leisa, her
accomplishments, and her never-ending positive attitude. During her “down time”, Leisa enjoys tennis
and shopping with her daughter. Leisa will be rewarded with a premier parking space right out front
reserved only for Employees of the Month, as well as a gift certificate to the We Care for you and the
Environment Day Spa. Congratulations Leisa!
Stock Holdings Investor Report
It is our opinion that technology will continue to be the driving force in the U.S. economy. Even though
technology stocks tend to reactive negatively to interest rate increases, we believe that any negative
effects that interest rates may have will be more than offset by the steep growth curves of many
technology companies. We particularly like companies that are building the new Internet infrastructure
and semiconductor companies. Our top stock holdings appear in the following table. As you can see,
technology companies dominate the list.

Balanced Portfolio Breakdown
Our Balanced Portfolio experienced a large influx of capital this year as more and more investors opted
for the professional management and diversification this product offers. When compared to last year,
the Balanced Portfolio has a larger percentage of assets allocated to stocks. In particular, we have
increased our position in technology stocks. Diversification and aggressive growth are the primary
objectives of the Balanced Portfolio. Although the portfolio has adequate diversification, it is heavily
weighted with stocks in aggressive growth companies.

Management Team and Strategy
Moving forward, our strategy will continue to be aggressive growth with large positions in technology
companies. We also believe that the coming year will be an excellent time to invest in small cap stocks.
Although large caps have outperformed small caps over the past three years, we believe small caps are
poised for a rebound. For this reason, we will continue to move funds into the small cap arena. In
addition, we will maintain an appropriate level of diversification in bonds, cash, cash equivalents, and
REIT's (Real Estate Investment Trusts).
