LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 19, 2000

Advanced Technology Holdings Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Score One Inc. (OTCBB:SCRO), announced today another development in its product expansion program directed toward increased revenue, earnings and shareholders' equity.

Score One, a supplier of rigid and flexible Printed Circuit Boards (PCB), has begun to provide the installation of electronic components on its PCBs as a value added service to its existing customers. This new Circuit-On-Board (COB) offering is expected to retain and attract new customers for its existing PCBs and open a new marketplace for the COB product.

"We anticipate that our new COB product will deliver approximately 20 percent more business to the company and a substantial increase to net income," commented Roy Ho, president and CEO of Score One. "This latest development complements our new `World Trade' marketing plan, which has been designed to expand and diversify the company's revenue base."

Score One has recently entered into a Letter of Intent for the purchase of a 45 percent equity stake in Blue-Tech Industrial Co. Ltd. ("Blue-Tech"), a joint venture with the Pao Li Group of Jiangsu Province in the People's Republic of China (PRC).

Blue-Tech plans to manufacture multimedia home personal computers, and expects to generate approximately $20 million in revenues and $2.65 million in net income for the first year of operation, approximately $1.2 million of which would accrue to Score One.

The company continues to expand and improve its production facilities, including the installation of a new fully automatic production line for flexible PCBs. It is also developing a Multiple Polyamide Inter Connection Board (MPIC) product that is expected to add an estimated $16.5 million in revenue and $5.9 million in earnings for fiscal year 2001.

As a result of these investments and other measures, the Shareholders' Equity rose 95 percent in nine months, from $3.19 million in December 1999 to $6.22 million in August 2000. The Book Value also increased during the same period from 15 cents to 31 cents, based on 19,930,000 shares outstanding.
