American International
acts as a professional and financial partner to improve its subsidiary's
access to capital, market share and revenues. The company's business
strategy is based on two distinct concepts; control combined with
active management assistance and financial partnerships.
The combination
of these concepts is based on efficient and smooth integration
of American International's designated management team and proven
procedures into each company. Even in cases where American International
acquires controlling interest of a company, it still practices
gradual transition, thus ensuring the support of the company's
long-term shareholders.
By operating as a holding company, American International serves
both as a financial and professional business savvy partner for
its subsidiaries. Its role is to improve each portfolio company's
access to potential capital, help them benefit from the economics
of scale through the consolidation of administrative functions,
and to provide universal access to the financial and management
expertise of each company's corporate personnel.
American International Industries, Inc. (AMIN), the holding
company, has its own portfolio of diversified investments such
as cash, receivables, stocks portfolio, etc. In addition, AMIN,
as a holding company, owns three (3) operating companies, Brenham Oil & Gas, Corp. (“engaged in the acquisition
of petroleum resources”), Northeastern Plastics, Inc. (“supplier
of automotive aftermarket & electrical products”) and American
International Texas Properties, Inc. (“investments” in Real
Estate). Each of the above described operating subsidiaries has
its own management team, revenues and profits base; however,
AMIN the holding company itself derives its own profits
primarily from the sale of assets, which sale of assets may depend
on market conditions, USA and world economic conditions, and other
unforeseen factors. The holding company costs of operating
are substantial, such as home office, general and administrative,
professional, accounting and auditing fees, governance, compliance
costs and the cost of a responsible Board of Directors and related
expenses. Since its inception, and over twelve (12) years, AMIN
acquired and sold operating companies, real estate, and other
investments, with most sales of its assets resulting in profits.
American International's
management team and its subsidiaries management teams have acquired
substantial experience and expertise in the industries its portfolio
companies operate in. This allows it to significantly contribute
to the development and expansion of each business' operations.
This creative mentor-type relationship is reinforced further by
American International's extensive participation in each company's
board of directors.
