URON Inc. Changes Name to Western Capital Resources, Inc.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, Aug. 4/EMWNews/ -- URON Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: URRN.OB), a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), announced today that its board of directors has approved a change in the Company's name to "Western Capital Resources, Inc.," and that appropriate documents affecting the name change have been filed with the Minnesota Secretary of State. The Company has notified Nasdaq Market Operations of the name change and expects to receive a new ticker symbol for its common stock on the OTCBB shortly. The board of directors approved the name change to better reflect the Company's current business of cash advance lending, together with its focus on diversifying the existing business to include other financial enterprises. "The name change effected today is a major step in the progression of Western Capital Resources as a corporation," stated Christopher Larson, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We believe that this name is reflective of both our current geographic focus and our broader hopes for growing the Company's financial business." The Company engaged in a merger transaction with Wyoming Financial Lenders, Inc., a Wyoming corporation, on December 31, 2007. Since that time, the cash advance lending business of Wyoming Financial Lenders has been the main business of the Company, but the Company has continued to operate under its former name (URON Inc.). Since the merger, the Company has grown, primarily through small acquisitions, to add ten new cash advance and title lending stores.
