The following is an explanation of Cordia’s unaudited anticipated changes:  


1.

Cordia’s operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008, increased by approximately $29,790,000 or approximately 68.7%, to approximately $73,159,000 as compared to approximately $43,369,000 reported for the year ended December 31, 2007.   Approximately $24,168,000 of this increase was attributable to our prepaid service offerings, which were launched during 2008.


2.

Cordia’s gross profit increased approximately $2,288,000 from the prior year due to a revenue increase of 68.7% offset, in part, by a decrease in gross profit margin.  Gross profit margin decreased to 27.83% in 2008 from 41.67% in 2007.  The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was due to the increase of cost of revenues associated with our prepaid services which typically has a lower gross profit then our wireline and VOIP divisions.


3.

Cordia’s consolidated operating expenses increased by approximately $2,215,000 or 10%, to approximately $23,533,000 for fiscal 2008, as compared to approximately $21,318,000 during fiscal 2007.  Approximately $1,100,000 was related to prepaid services and approximately $513,000 was related to an increase in our provision for bad debts.


4.

Cordia’s other income and expenses increased approximately $2,345,000 to $2,902,000 during 2008.  Included in this amount is a loss provision of $1,360,000 for potential penalties and interest on fees and taxes owed to various governmental agencies.  In addition, Cordia’s factoring fees and interest expense increased by approximately $496,000 and $201,000, respectively, over the prior year.


Cordia Corporation has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
