The company provides a highly interactive and informational social network for members, a management and revenue-sharing resource for third-party forum owners, and a largely untapped advertising network for marketers worldwide.

To test the potential of this social network, the company has teamed up with Human Pheromone Sciences Inc. (OTCBB: EROX) to launch its new Erox® fragrance.

Science-based Product with Celebrity Endorsement

CrowdGather’s Erox® fragrance includes two patented human pheromones and a new patent-pending, organic pheromone-like compound derived from sea coral. These ingredients combine to create a fragrance that has been proven to cause feelings of confidence and well-being, as well as an increase in arousal, excitement, sensuality and social warmth.

The fragrance is being endorsed by reality star, popular television host and self-proclaimed lover of geekdom Adrianne Curry in a new social media campaign. The company will market the product through its affiliate market channels and launch it through the use of social media and forum communities that it owns and operates.

A Proof of Concept to Validate Its Powerful Networks

CrowdGather has developed a powerful advertising network for marketers around the world that remains largely untapped. The launch of Erox® is one way that the company aims to demonstrate the value of this expansive network to advertisers. Ultimately, this should help to drive higher CPMs and unlock real value for shareholders.

The company may also pursue the standalone potential of this business model. With its powerful network, the firm can just as easily partner with other companies and launch products along any number of different verticals. This could also dramatically increase its top and bottom line without having to rely on outside sources of revenue.

Results are Already Better than They Appear

During its fiscal 2012, CrowdGather reported just a modest increase in revenues on the surface, but there was a large shift happening below the surface. The company generated more than half of its revenues from its acquisition of the Adisn ad agency during fiscal 2011, but this focus changed to its core business of monetizing forums in fiscal 2012. The result is a higher-margin business that has been rapidly growing to replace the low margin segment that’s being phased out.

And during the second quarter ended October 31, 2011, the company generated between 230 and 235 million monthly page views across all of its properties, compared to just 80 to 90 million during the same period in fiscal 2010. These traffic figures represent the pent-up potential in its expansive advertising network that it hopes to capitalize on over the coming quarters.

Omni-Lite Industries is well known for its design and material engineering that uses advanced multi-die cold-forging equipment to robotically produce aerospace quality parts at very rapid production rates. While about half of its revenues come from the U.S. military, the remainder of its revenue mix is diversified between aerospace, specialty automotive, EV/Hybrid Battery and Sports and Recreational sectors.

Omni-Lite Appears Undervalued

Omni-Lite reported revenues of $5.4 million and net income of $962,620, or 7 cents per diluted share, during the nine months ended September 20, 2011. The company expects to release it’s audited 2011 annual results in April 2012. Meanwhile, the firm recorded assets of $25 million compared to liabilities of $5.5 million, yielding shareholders’ equity of nearly $20 million, or approximately $1.49 per share.

Currently, the company’s stock trades at approximately $1.40 per share, which suggests it undervalued based on both its intrinsic value and earnings multiple relative to its peers. The stock has a price-earnings multiple of around 15.5x, compared to an industry average 23.9x, and trades at nearly a 3% discount to its shareholders’ equity.  Moreover, the company has a 2x per year dividend of .02 cents = .04/2.7% yield at current prices, and $4.9 mill cash on-hand.

Growth Prospects on the Horizon

Omni-Lite recently announced 2 new orders from its Military “Green Round” Customer for components on additional caliber ammunition and has several large programs scheduled to come online during the first half of 2012, which would be expected to increase yearly sales significantly.  These projects include orders from a major supplier of ABS brake components; an EV/Hybrid battery manufacturer; Ford’s new Scorpion diesel engine, and the Military’s Tier-1 supplier of the recently re-designed M-16 ammunition.

These press releases and the overall turning of the economy indicate that the company may soon resume its growth trajectory. Given its apparent undervaluation, this suggests that the stock could be poised for significant gains over the coming quarters. And this makes it a stock that is definitely worth watching for investors.

In fact, Facebook’s anticipated valuation of more than $100 billion could prove to be a very positive development for the Internet sector’s valuations on traffic and unique visitors. With revenues of just $3.7 billion and net income of $1 billion, this equates to a lofty price-earnings multiple of around 100x, if the company IPO’s as expected over the coming quarters.

Investors’ Strong Appetite for Facebook

Most estimates of Facebook’s valuation are drawn from private securities markets, such as SharesPost. In a recent auction, the company’s stock was valued at about $94 billion ahead of its IPO in the public markets, according to Bloomberg <http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-02-03/facebook-is-valued-at-94-billion-in-auction-of-shares-on-private-market.html> . And with plans to raise $5 billion in capital, Facebook’s IPO will become the largest ever for an Internet company.

The $94 to $100 billion valuation would put it ahead of other Internet companies like Google Inc. when it went public and well ahead of many smaller companies in the space, like CrowdGather Inc. However, some analysts believe that the higher valuation could actually help improve the valuation of other Internet stocks on a relative basis.

Looking at Smaller Undervalued Players

Investors looking for an opportunity to ride the Facebook “effect” may want to consider some of the industry’s smaller, lesser known players. After all, a quick glance at other recent IPOs over the past year have shown some lackluster performance. For instance, Pandora is trading down more than 20% from its IPO price, while LinkedIn is trading down some 15% from its IPO price.

CrowdGather is one such “under the radar” microcap stock trading just above book value with insider buying close to and higher than current prices.  With a market capitalization of just $23.2 million, the company is relatively unknown to many larger investors, but may offer small investors a great opportunity. And recently, the stock quietly doubled from 20 to 40 cents per share on higher-than-average volume.

A Solid Investment Opportunity

CrowdGather’s network generates between 220 and 225 million monthly pageviews and 16 to 18 million monthly unique visitors, according to recent 10-Q filings. Meanwhile, its 81 properties and 599 domain names cover a wide variety of market verticals, which makes it a perfect tool for marketers looking to reach targeted audiences.

Online forums are also a unique place where people discuss specific products, services oreven brands. For instance, the company’s ZuneBoards.com focuses on Microsoft’s Zune MP3 player and related accessories. As a result, this audience is widely seen to be far more likely to make recommendations and post reviews in addition to simply purchasing products.

The History

AltiGen is not new to the communications industry.  The company built its brand more than a decade ago when it married the best features of a personal computer with the best a telephone had to offer and set the telephony industry on its side with advancements.  Because of its legacy systems as a leader in PBX technology, AltiGen has been ranked as one of the top ten Unified Communications vendors in the United States by both the Gartner Group and Nemertes.

Sensing an industry shift from outdated PBX systems ready to happen, AltiGen has migrated to software-based solutions to provide seamless integration of Microsoft infrastructure technologies to its more than 10,000 clients.  This was a prophetic move by AltiGen to maintain its leadership position in the integrated communications space.  Gartner’s recent findings in its 2011 report stated, “the unified communications portfolios have begun to mature with the emergence of integrated UC suites.”  Once again, AltiGen was a step ahead of the curve by being the first independent software vendor to market with its latest portfolio of products.

Transition to Opportunity

The swing in business model produced a lag in news that appears to have dampened investor sentiment temporarily.  The ATGN share price faded from its normal range around 80 cents and well-off its 2011 high of $1.23 as shares touched 20 cents in December of 2011.  Resurgence in news this month has quickly pulled the value of an AltiGen share off of those lows with shares appreciating by more than 80 percent, but still below its normal trading range.

The news showed that AltiGen is back on the move and adding to its portfolio of more than 10,000 clients.  The company is expanding its international footprint through new partnerships with the top Microsoft Unified Communications partners to deliver AltiGen’s MaxACD contact center solution for Microsoft Lync. A recent deal with Eurodata Systems Ltd, a leading provider to the UK’s public and private sector, has already netted an initial services contract with the Association of Accounting Technicians.  Tool giant Milwaukee Electric Tool also joined the AltiGen client list with a new agreement which will feature AltiGen’s MaxACD system supporting 20 domestic service centers of Milwaukee Electric Tool.

A quick look at the company’s recent report on operational results from the first fiscal quarter of 2012 shows several important facts.  Revenue increased to $4.8 million from $4.3 million in the final quarter of fiscal 2011 and net loss contracted from $861,000 in Q4 2011 to only $9,000 in Q1 2012.  It looks like AltiGen is turning the corner and starting to gain better industry traction with their Microsoft Lync technologies.

It also cannot be overlooked that Form 4 filings show that in December AltiGen chief Jerry Fleming bought approximately 100,000 shares between 62 and 80 cents.

Fodder for Thought – Management Has Been There, Done That

Modifying to meet the ever-changing demands of technology is a strongpoint for AltiGen execs.  Chariman and founder Gilbert Hu was the founder of Centrum Communications, a pioneer in the remote networking industry, which was acquired by 3Com Corporation in 1994, which was later bought by Hewlett-Packard in 2010 for $2.7 billion.

President and CEO Jeremiah J. Fleming served as a member of the executive management team of Interactive Intelligence, Inc. (NASDAQ:ININ) during its launch of subsidiary Vonexus to focus on Microsoft-based IP communications solutions.  Fleming was appointed as President of Vonexus and eventually promoted to senior executive roles at Interactive Intelligence when it went public.  Shares have been trending up for nine years and still trade for nearly $30 each.

CFO Philip M. McDermott formerly was the VP of Finance, Operations and Administration for DAVID Systems, a division of Chipcom Corporation, a public networking company that was acquired by 3Com Corp.  After the acquisition, McDermott served as Director of Finance for Americas Sales for 3Com before coming to AltiGen.

The list of AltiGen directors carries on the pattern of a long lineage of ties to major corporations in the industry that should prove beneficial as AltiGen continues to grow.  And, they know a thing or two about mergers and acquisitions, to say the least.

AlitGen has a tiny float, tiny market cap and huge potential.  The stock price may be broken at the moment, but the company looks to be getting stronger than ever.

Motion Power Energy Harvester

New Energy’s Motion Power™-Express technology generates electricity from the motion of vehicles and carries with it countless potential uses.  A series of small, rumble strip-like treadles, the Motion Power system harvests kinetic (or “rolling”) energy from vehicles as they slow before coming  to a stop.  This captured kinetic energy is then converted to electricity.  New Energy is developing both “Light” (for cars and light trucks) and “Heavy” (heavy trucks, rigs, buses, etc.) versions of its Motion Power™ Systems.

The system was showcased in October 2011 at the Civic Center in Roanoke, Virginia through a six-hour demonstration in front of thousands of viewers.  Over 580 vehicles participated by driving across the Motion Power™-Express System with the captured energy being used to illuminate lighted displays to the drivers.  Even with this smaller-scale demonstration, enough sustainable electricity was generated to power an average home or a 150 square foot sports venue electronic billboard for an entire day, according to engineers’ estimates.

As New Energy continues to work towards commercialization, the number of possible uses for this unique product is mind-boggling.  The debut demonstration only used less than 700 of the more than 250 million cars that are on the streets in the United States today for six hours; opening the door to the enormous potential for a fully scalable model.  Sports venues (or venues of any fashion for that matter), toll booths, construction zones, drive-thru restaurants, truck stops, parking garages and rest areas are just a few of the possible locations to generate clean, sustainable energy to cut costs and reduce dependence on fossil fuels that account for roughly 70 percent of all electricity generated today.

Solar Window™ Provides a Clear View to the Future

Almost everyone knows what typical rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) panel systems are.  Those systems are continuously seeing more use and serve a great purpose for creating electricity from the sun’s light, but they have several limitations.  Primarily, the panels must be installed at an angle and direction towards the sun.  These systems only work with sunlight and require a lot of rooftop area to generate substantial amounts of electrical energy.

New Energy Technologies has taken the limitations of solar PV systems to the next level.  The company is developing six different product lines of its first-in-class SolarWindow™ technology, which enables see-through windows to generate electricity by spraying the glass surfaces with a revolutionary electricity-generating coating.  New Energy is developing these products through an exclusive world-wide licensing agreement with the University of South Florida (USF) together with a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy—National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

These solar windows use a far thinner coating (1/1000th the thickness of human hair) than any other solar technology in the world; allowing for the windows to remain see-through.  Moreover, electricity is generated from both natural and artificial light, making the windows far more versatile.  From a production standpoint, the spray-on coating (applied at room temperature) eliminates the great expenses involved with high-temperature or high-vacuum production methods typically required in manufacturing conventional solar PV and thin-film systems.

In a recent public display of its working prototype, the technology produced sufficient voltage to power lights and generated enough current to operate a mechanical device at an event attended by mainstream media, scientists, academics, industry participants, and investors. During the demonstration, the SolarWindow™ generated electrical power from exposure to sunlight and also artificial light (a fluorescent light was used).

There are more than 5 million commercial buildings in the U.S. and more than 80 million single detached homes.  Much like the Motion Power technology, the market potential is virtually endless for New Energy Technologies.  Aiming to protect their intellectual property, New Energy has more than 40 patent submissions to date for the SolarWindow™ and Motion Power™ technologies.

The Future is Now

The idea of perpetual energy may not be a possibility as a sheer consequence of physics, but the technologies of New Energy Technologies may be the next best thing.  For investors, the company is well-aligned with a tight share structure of only 20.6 million shares outstanding.  Insiders hold more than 40 percent of those shares, leaving roughly 12 million freely tradable shares available.  Many developmental firms decimate their capital structure building-out their technologies, but such is not the case with New Energy Technologies as they head towards commercialization.  Weighing-in with a paltry $25 million market cap, the upside for this cutting-edge company is large, to say the least.

Internet Brands Buyout Demonstrates Value

Internet Brands was purchased by Hellman & Friedman for about $640 million in a leveraged buyout back in September of 2010. With 2010 revenues estimated at $113.5 million and net income of $13.7 million, based on Q2 and Q3 2010 results, the company was a very attractive target for the private equity marketplace.

The buyout occurred at a significant premium due to high interest on the part of private equity firms in profitable Internet companies. In fact, the same firm has invested in companies ranging from DoubleClick (later acquired by Google) to Getty Images. We believe that Webxu strongly resembles this business, which makes it a stock definitely worth watching.

Internet IPOs Further Highlight Valuations

The recent wave of Internet IPOs has further validated the sector’s potential. These companies have included Angie’s List Inc. (NASDAQ: ANGI), Groupon Inc. (NASDAQ: GRPN), LinkedIn Corp (NASDAQ: LNKD), Pandora Media Inc. (NASDAQ: P) and Zynga Inc. (NASDAQ: ZNGA) among others and they have performed fairly well given the current economic climate.

In fact, all of these IPOs were able to price highly during their initial public offerings, despite some recent retracements as early investors book profits. And while some media pundits may be criticizing the group for a lack of profits, they fail to realize that it’s more profitable for the companies to reinvest in their own growth than realize an immediate net income.

Webxu Could be Next after Filling the Void

Webxu is focused on providing high ROI’s for their advertiser clients via their owned and operated network of web properties. By excelling at data management, testing and optimization, the company is able to generate significant revenues from their properties. And this business model is very similar to that of Internet Brands and other successful industry competitors.

The company has been trading publicly since October of 2011 and represents a relatively new player in the market. On a pro forma basis following its acquisition of Lot6 Media in November, the company generated $19.6 million in revenue, $2.5 million in EBITDA, and a net income of $0.16 per share, for the 9-month period ending September 30, 2011, according to its latest 10-Q filing.

According to their most recent 8-K filing, Webxu announced their intention to purchase a data management and monetization company whose unaudited preliminary financial statements reflect 2011 performance of $28.9 million in revenue with $5.6 million in EBITDA.

A Great Investment Opportunity

We believe that Webxu represents an attractive investment opportunity for two reasons. First, it strongly resembles Internet Brands, which was sold to a private equity firm in 2010 during a tough market. And second, it has yet to realize any of the upside seen by many recent internet IPOs, which means that it could be overdue for a higher valuation.

Through its partnership with industry expert Human Pheromone Sciences, Inc. (OTCBB:EROX), CrowdGather is ratcheting up the widely-popular activity of communicating on forums through Erox, a pheromone-filled fragrance formulated to make people more chatty.  Erox is the first commercial product to contain Human Pheromone Sciences’ patent pending Muiricin Angluycone (ER303), a compound that has been shown to increase arousal, excitement, social-warmth, and sensuality in both men and women during a double blind placebo controlled study.  If that wasn’t enough, Erox also contains two human pheromones, Androstadienone (ADO) and Estratetraenol (ETE), which have been proven to increase feelings of confidence and well-being in the wearers and those around them.

CrowdGather has the exclusive rights to distribute the product online through affiliate internet marketing channels.  Adrianne Curry, the reality star and television host who found fame as the first winner of “America’s Next Top Model” as well as her starring roles in VH1’s hit series the “Surreal Life” and “My Fair Brady,” will be serving as the spokesperson for CrowdGather’s social media campaign to launch Erox.  All jazzed-up over the new product, Adrianne Curry commented, “I love the idea of using a fragrance that actually makes people more social.  Erox is fun and flirty with a broad appeal due to its unisex nature.”

The marketing campaign will feature content geared towards entertainment and will be introduced through CrowdGather-owned websites and forums as well as through other community forums, online advertising and social media stalwarts Twitter and Facebook.

It’s really a perfect storm for CrowdGather to launch a product that will generate revenue from all angles.  Further, it will showcase the power of CrowdGather’s internet marketing channels and the potential of marketing through them.  CrowdGather CEO Sanjay Sanani sees the true value as he explained, “The development, marketing and launch of Erox marks the first social media product launch for CrowdGather, a business model we intend to pursue going forward.”

With a market capitalization that is drastically lower than its industry peers, CrowdGather represents an undervalued opportunity that is not frequently seen in companies building a strong online presence.  The launch of Erox has apparently emitted a pheromone that has been picked-up by the investment community.  Shares of CRWG have appreciated by more than 50 percent in just over a week from a solid support level at 11 cents to trade at 17 cents on some notably heavy volume trading days.

Recently, the company announced a new product line that targets more mainstream customers by converting its more obviously themed products into a stylish pillow. Meanwhile, the firm also picked up some analyst coverage that could help its stock reach a greater investor base.

Liberator Targets Mainstream Markets

Liberator recently announced new additions to its Home Décor Collection. Its LoveArts Pillows are designed offer the same functionality as their traditional products, but with stylish designs that seamlessly blend into any bedroom. The result is a product that reaches more mainstream consumers that may be apprehensive about purchasing its other products.

According to CMO Michael Kane, “We really wanted to create an elegant piece for the Home Collection that related to the Black Label in our Shapes and furniture.” Along with its other products, the LoveArts Pillows are being sold directly to consumers and through hundreds of domestic resellers, online affiliates and six international licensees.

Liberator Attracts Analyst Attention

Liberator has also made progress in reaching more mainstream investors after announcing the availability of a new third-party research report. The in-depth report by research firm Goldgaber Research discusses the company, its proprietary products, and initiated coverage with a 12-month price target of $1.00 per share – a 516% premium to its current market price.

According to the report, “Reflecting the progress the franchise has made in becoming a mainstream brand, Liberator has sold $60 million in products and spent nearly $9 million in print advertising including appearances in numerous mainstream publications.  Additionally, Liberator has been featured in both television programs and movies, including memorable scenes featured in two movies, Meet the Fockers and Burn After Reading, which had a combined gross of approximately $680 million globally.”

A Great Investment Opportunity

Liberator represents a great investment opportunity at its current levels, especially as it targets new customer demographics and expands its investor awareness. The company’s sales have shown exceptional year-over-year growth, while its net loss has narrowed to a point where profitability appears to be on the horizon.

For more information about Liberator, please see the following resources:

For example, every single minute, 320 new Twitter accounts are created, 98,000 new tweets are sent, 100 new LinkedIn accounts are created, 13,000 hours of music are streamed on Pandora, 50 WordPress blogs are created, 1,500 blog posts are made, 100 questions are asked on Ask.com, and more than 20,000 new posts are made on Tumblr.

However, online forums are unique in that they are communities of people discussing specific products, services or even brands. For instance, the company’s ZuneBoards.com discusses Microsoft’s Zune MP3 player and related accessories. This audience is many times more likely to do things like recommend purchases and post reviews, according to Zack’s Research.

CrowdGather Builds Value via Acquisitions

CrowdGather has leveraged its infrastructure, software and services to synergistically acquire more than 81 properties and 599 domain names covering a wide variety of market verticals. Through its ADISN digital media agency, the company aggregates these acquisitions into key verticals and offers advertisers measureable rich media solutions.

Currently, the company’s network generates between 220 to 225 million monthly page views and 16 to 18 million monthly unique visitors, according to its latest 10-Q filing. Additionally, approximately 16 million users have registered on their network sites to date with 28 million discussions comprising over 350 million individual replies.

These metrics make CrowdGather extremely valuable relative to many recent social media initial public offerings and private companies. For instance, Pandora Media Inc. (NASDAQ: P) – a provider of streaming and social music services – had just 29 million active users as of January 31, 2011 with a market capitalization of around $2 billion.

Ad Platform Could Unlock Significant Value

CrowdGather is developing an integrated ad server that it hopes will generate significant revenues from what they consider a minimally monetized component of their business – their hosted forums. With hundreds of thousands of forums hosted on its Yuku.com, FreeForums.org, Forumer.com and LeFora.com properties, this could make a large impact.

The integrated ad server could also help the company transform itself into a platform play serving third-party forums. Internet users are increasingly using these forums to ask questions, write reviews, or simply interact with others on a particular topic.

The company plans to demonstrate this value, in part, by marketing its Erox fragrance that was co-developed with Human Pheromone Sciences Inc. (OTCBB: EROX). According to CEO Sanjay Sabnani, “The development, marketing and launch of Erox marks the first social media product launch for CrowdGather, a business model we intend to pursue going forward.”

A Great Investment Opportunity

CrowdGather represents a great investment opportunity in the underappreciated online forum industry. With a market capitalization of just $7.27 million, the company is dramatically undervalued compared to its social media peers, especially when considering its rapid growth and near-term monetization strategies.

The CRWG chart moved through resistance at 12.5 cents yesterday. Volume was below average, but the MACD and RSI are showing strength to trend and momentum in the chart. Importantly, there is a strong positive divergence between the MACD and price per share, which will have technical traders watching for a volume surge and a break of the zero line for the MACD.

About CrowdGather Inc.

With its growing portfolio of special interest forums and enthusiast message board communities, CrowdGather (www.crowdgather.com) has created a centralized network to benefit forum members, forum owners and forum advertisers. CrowdGather provides a highly interactive and informational social network for members, a management and revenue-sharing resource for third-party forum owners, and a largely untapped advertising network for marketers worldwide.

While most construction projects are segregated by trade, causing scheduling delays and personnel inefficiency, the company’s business model is to become a single source solution for all projects. The resulting improvements help drive a reduction in delays and overall timelines and generate significantly higher returns on investment.

Strong Sales & Projected Growth Ahead

Dynamic Ventures announced sales that increased 391% to $4,735,848 last quarter, thanks to its acquisition of Bundled Builder Solutions Inc. (BBSI).  The August 2010 reverse merger helped the company enter into the management services and general contracting business for landowners throughout the United States and Native American communities.

In March of 2011, the company began work on its North Dakota project, which generated the majority of its quarterly revenues and consists of 24 residential homes, 26 townhomes and two commercial projects. Notably, the North Dakota real estate market is expected to benefit from an increasing population and a relatively healthy economy compared to other states.

These projects are being supported by a recent $7.5 million equity funding facility announced in December. Many investors are hoping that this financing will support the company’s revenue growth and provide the base for it to become cash flow positive.

Dynamic Ventures Benefits from Many Trends

Dynamic Venture’s building systems benefit from a number of trends. First, McGraw Hill Construction expects the overall construction industry to advance next year with single family homes dominating the growth in the market. And second, “green” building is accelerating at a dramatic rate and expected to surpass $135 billion by 2015.

The company’s SIP (Structural Insulated Panels) systems reduce construction time by combining “green” energy efficient materials at comparable costs of conventional building. SIPs are eco-friendly, recyclable building products that offer high energy efficiency and less waste.  All of these systems are LEED certified – a standard certification in environmentally-friendly construction.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Dynamic Ventures represents an attractive investment opportunity at its current levels. With a market capitalization of just $2.91 million, according to Yahoo! Finance, the company trades at just a fraction of its intrinsic value given its existing growth and future prospects.

Superior Targeting Means Higher ROI

Online advertising is all about targeting. Simply put, advertisers are willing to pay a premium for an audience that’s more likely to take action. This is why banner advertisements have very low CPM rates for publishers and why Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) has become one of the world’s largest companies with its highly effective contextual and search based targeting.

CrowdGather targets highly specific demographics by developing online forums catering to specific niches. For instance, the company’s PBNation.com’s user base is far more likely to purchase paintball gear than visitors on any other type of website. As a result, the paintball forum will provide a much higher ROI to advertisers than an outdoors blog, for example.

Not Your Typical Visitors & Users

CrowdGather’s user base is not your typical web visitor or social media user either. Rather, the company’s online forums attract “power users” that are far more passionate and engaged than the average web visitor. This translates to a number of benefits for online advertisers, ranging from free grassroots advertising to more online reviews and referrals.

According to Zack’s Research, the company’s average users are:

• 10x more likely to publish a blog;
• 3.5x more likely to recommend a purchase;
• 9x more likely to organize an event;
• 4x more likely to post reviews online; and,
• 3.5x more likely to share new products.

New Platform Enhances Targeting

In June of 2010, CrowdGather acquired Adisn Inc. in a stock transaction that provided it with an advertising agency and proprietary ad serving technology. The company has been working diligently to integrate the business with its own network of forum properties in order to deliver higher margin advertising revenue capable of reaching any scale.

With this platform in place, CrowdGather has developed a scalable and highly effective business model. The company acquires forums at a discount to their intrinsic value and monetizes them more effectively with its proprietary platform. Meanwhile, the firm is also exploring the possibility of extending its platform to non-owned forums and collecting intermediary income.

A Great Investment Opportunity

CrowdGather’s forum network is generating between 220-225 million page views each month with 16 to 18 million unique visitors. With its proprietary online advertising platform, the company is able to effectively capitalize on this tremendous ad inventory. As a result, this may be an attractive opportunity for growth investors looking to supplement their portfolios.

Gryphon Gold’s Near-term Catalysts

• Borealis Successfully Restarted – Gryphon Gold has successfully restored its Borealis gold project and has already begun to ship gold from its gold heap leach operation.
• Gold Prices Continue to Rally – Gold prices have been on the rise since the global economic crisis of 2008, reaching more than $1,600 per share in December 2011.
• Significant 2012 Guidance Issued – Gryphon Gold has stated that it anticipates some 43,000 ounces of gold to be produced by its property in 2012 alone.

Borealis Mine Enters Commercialization

Gryphon Gold’s Borealis mine is just starting to pay off for investors. On December 1, 2011, the company received its first revenues from the sale of loaded carbon delivered in October. These revenues amounted to $221,442 now, but the firm expects to ramp up production to 3,700 ounces of gold by the end of the year and 43,600 ounces of gold in 2012.

At a relatively conservative gold price of $1,200 per ounce, this equates to $4.44 million in revenues by the end of 2011 and more than $52 million in revenues during 2012. While actual overhead figures have yet to be presented, the company should be able to turn a profit on both a cash flow and net income basis during 2012, based on these estimates.

Gold Prices Headed Higher, Say Experts

The aforementioned estimates are based on a $1,200 gold price, which leaves a huge potential upside given recent trends. Gold prices are currently hovering around $1,600 per ounce with many experts calling for them to rise above $2,000 per ounce over the coming years, despite some recent weakness reported in the spot market.

The catalysts behind a potential move higher include further problems in the Eurozone, as well as potential problems in the United States. Investors tend to buy gold as a safe-haven asset when other asset classes start performing poorly or rise in risk. Potential consolidation in the gold mining industry could also drive valuations higher.

About Gryphon Gold Inc.

Gryphon Gold is a Nevada-focused gold exploration company. The Company’s principal property is its Borealis gold project located in the Walker Lane gold belt of western Nevada.

The company’s CupriDyne® is a proprietary technology that delivers iodine by incorporating many of the same safe ingredients found in multivitamins. The result is that BioLargo can deliver an iodine wash product that is just as powerful as competing household cleaners and disinfectants, but is also non-toxic, “green”, part of a natural cycle, has no known capacity for acquired resistance, and is made completely of ingredients that are generally regarded as safe by the FDA and are commonly used in food products. And as the first to market with this technology, the company is in a unique position to profit.

A Highly-Promising Proof-of-Concept and Landed Its First Major Commercial License

BioLargo’s first major license is in the pet industry with an initial focus on odor and moisture control applications for pets. Its technology has application across multiple product categories within the pet industry like bedding products, puppy pads, stain and odor remover and even cat litter. The market for cat litter alone is massive with 92 million cats and an estimated annual turnover at $1.9 billion US per year and growing. Environmentally safe cat litter alone represents 20% of the $1.1 billion per year eco-friendly cat products market, according to a report by MarketResearch.com called “Natural, Organic and Eco-Friendly Pet Products in the U.S.” Future products will include liquids, puppy pads, litters, bedding and more.

After winning awards, including a ‘Product of the Year’ award in the equine market, the company attracted the attention of Central Garden & Pet Company (NASDAQ: CENT), which is the largest seller and distributor of pet products in the U.S. Under the terms of a recent agreement, disclosed in an 8-K filing with the SEC, the company has secured a $100,000 down payment and significant future minimum purchases in order for Central to maintain its exclusive rights in the pet industry:

• $100,000 over the initial six months.
• 1,250,000 pounds over the next 18 months.
• 2,000,000 pounds over the next 12 months.
• 2,750,000 pounds over the next 12 months.
• 3% annual increases thereafter.

The minimum run rate from this agreement and sales into this pet industry category could take the company to $3.5 to $5 million per year, using sales figures from competing products and standard industry margins. The opportunity appears to far exceed the minimums of the agreement and the products developed appear ready to launch in early 2012.  These near-term revenues could equate to significant value for shareholders as the firm’s management expects to transition to positive cash flows and net income. Given the nature of the platform technology and the platform business relationship with the industry leader, sales could expand and grow for decades to come.

Significant Long-term Potential in Many Verticals

The revenues from this agreement and the pet industry related sales may be significant, but they pale in comparison to BioLargo’s long-term potential. The company already has a number of new products on the launch pad and has identified dozens of additional products over the long run. If these new products experience just a fraction of Odor-No-More’s success, like being recognized in its industry segment as a top performing product, then the new products could spell strong top and bottom line growth ahead as the company seeks to build distribution alliances with industry leaders in various industry sectors.

Beyond the pet supplies market, the company is also diligently working to develop their iodine technology for various “CleanTech” segments.  Many industries are in need of disinfectants, odor and moisture control, and contaminated water solutions, ranging from medical to food and beverage to oil and gas. As a result, the revenue potential for these products is virtually endless.

The company’s plan to capitalize on these new verticals is simple: They do enough work to prove commercial viability and recruit one or more of the vertical’s market leader and then they become the supplier. With a partnership agreement already in place with The Horn Group, (that just celebrated its 50^th anniversary as a leading distributor in the specialty ingredients and materials supply industry) the company has the supply chain established with a proven ability to execute on these agreements to what appears to be substantial scale.

In the end, BioLargo Inc. (OTCBB: BLGO) represents an attractive investment opportunity at these levels with near-term revenues and long-term potential. To learn more about this company, please see the following links:

FDA-Grade Air Purification Technology

UV Flu Technologies has developed some of the most effective air purification technologies available today. In fact, its technologies are FDA cleared medical devices that meet and exceed very strict criteria. Using high-energy ultra-violet radiation inside a patented “killing chamber”, the technology destroys airborne bacteria, reduces all odors and volatile organic compounds such as formaldehyde, acetone, benzene etc, while also deactivating other airborne organic contaminants.

The market for air purification technologies has been gaining momentum as concerns of indoor air quality have risen. According to the company’s 10-K filing, the U.S. indoor air quality market generated $7.7 billion in 2008 with the equipment segment accounting for $3.6 billion. The firm believes there’s a $5 billion+ market for commercial air purification within its target markets.

Unique Business Model with Near-term Catalysts

UV Flu Technologies has a unique business model with a number of near-term catalysts. With an initial focus on medical, hospitality and commercial markets, the company hopes to lease its products directly or through distributors and generate some immediate revenues. In fact, the company will be the only solution available in most hospitals worldwide.

Interestingly, most of the agreements and news pertaining to these commercial markets were only recently released. For instance, the company purchased RX Air in February, which added an entire line of hospital grade purification products in almost 500 hospitals internationally.  In October the company began building a relationship with Grainger, one of the world’s largest sales distributors with over 1800 sales reps. As a result, these developments may not be fully priced in to the company’s stock at its current levels.

In its second phase, the company plans to strategically target the large consumer market for indoor air quality products once commercial sales have progressed. The company hopes to generate revenues in excess of $100 million per year after three years. And they expect to report positive cash flow as early as Q1 of next year.

A Great Investment Opportunity

UV Flu Technologies represents a unique investment opportunity. With several near-term prospects and solid long-term plans, the company appears ready and capable of commercializing its unique air purification technologies. As a result, this may be a stock worth a second look for growth investors.

New Cars

The last three months have propelled new auto sales in the States firmly upward.  Industry estimates show about 12.7 million new autos to be purchased in 2012, the largest amount since 2008 when 13.19 million new cars and trucks were bought.  Across the U.S., 11.53 million light vehicles have been purchased through November, up 10.4 percent from the same time last year, according to Autodata Corp.

In November alone, about 995,000 passenger cars and light trucks were sold, up 14 percent from November 2010.  Low interest rates, fully-stocked new car inventories, and high trade-in values are attributed for the gains.

Used Car Marketing

Used car sales increased in 2010 after a tough 2009.  And while most focus goes on new car sales, the pre-owned sector creates liquidity in our economy with the ratio of new sales to used sales is holding steady around a rate of 1:4.  Dealers are well aware of the importance of this used car volume and hitting the net to meet inventory needs and drive clients.   Amazingly, estimates from 2009 showed that more than 2 million units of sales were lost to the lack of inventory (amongst other reasons).  Dealers apparently are addressing demand via internet solutions.

The National Independent Automobile Dealers Association’s (NIADA) 2010 Facts and Statistics of the Used Motor Vehicle Industry report showed the rapidly increasing use of online marketing to drive sales and generate leads.  Dealers using online media surged from 47.9 percent of respondents in 2008 to 68.6 percent in 2009.

Under the Hood of SMA Alliance

While companies like CarMax and AutoNation are household names, there is a smaller firm grabbing-up market share at a remarkable pace.  SMA Alliance has been posting astonishing growth with their unique lead generation technologies as more and more dealers sign-on to access the SMA platform and bolster sales.  November proved the acceleration in client growth as 12 new dealerships signed in the first two weeks alone.  Financial reports showed that with six weeks still left in the quarter, the total annualized revenue for SMA increased by $2 million. Contracts with GM Certified dealers are providing a major benefit and a contributing factor to their success.  As both new and used auto sales escalate and the word continues to spread throughout the industry about SMA, the company’s salient growth should continue its non-linear pattern upward.

The company’s services include customer management, transcription and captioning, processing services, human resources, procurement, logistics support, finance and accounting, engineering, facilities management, information technology and training. These services are provided in the Philippines where there’s a large, educated and English-speaking population.

Profitable Play on a Growing Trend

Business process outsourcing, known as BPO, is the contracting of operations and responsibilities of specific business functions to a third-party service provider. As businesses move to cut their costs, Gartner projects that the market will grow 6.3% in 2011 and 5% in 2012 at a time when many industries around the world are contracting.

SupportSave is a profitable and undiscovered play on this growing industry. Last quarter, the company swung to a profit of $142,013, or $0.01 per share, on revenues that increased 59% to $911,171. These results don’t include recent developments, including an agreement with the second largest office supply and services superstore chain in the United States.

Long-term Roll-Up Could Build Value

SupportSave plans to grow through a combination of acquisition and organic growth to reach a mid-market scale. These acquisitions tend to be accretive in the short-term, making it a very efficient way to grow and reach a critical scale. While there are many small opportunities, the middle market has few acquisition opportunities.

This means that the company could become a target itself. Assuming the company can generate $0.04 in earnings per share per year, this means its price-earnings multiple could be a low 6.25x. With Accenture and Sykes trading anywhere between 15x and 25x, SupportSave could be worth upwards of $1.00 per share in a buyout scenario.

A Great Investment Opportunity

SupportSave represents an attractive investment opportunity. With tough economic conditions holding many industries back, the BPO market is expected to continue to see growth. Meanwhile, the company’s growth and acquisitions could eventually make it an acquisition target within the sector.

Why is Profire Energy ($PFIE) down?

Earnings and Growing Revenues – Back in November, PFIE reported record income before tax for the 9/30/11 quarter ending of $1,646,575 on total revenues of $4.5 million. Revenues have more than doubled in comparison to the previous year revenues of $2.2 million, and it has NO DEBT! For the six month period, Profire reported $7.2 million in sales and $2.7 million EBT. How many times do Small-Cap investors hear about “next quarter”? Profire is delivering now.

The Product – Burner Management Systems (BMS): Profire is filling many voids in the safety and efficiency of upstream pipeline flow of oil and gas, while helping the industry reduce its carbon footprint.  Several models have been developed over the last decade, with Profire’s latest model, the 2100 BMS, steadily grabbing more and more market share. With its electronic ignition and series of sensors, the flame is only lit when the pipeline requires, saving countless amounts of fuel and greatly reducing emissions. Any problems with ignition or the unit are remotely relayed, saving manpower and money. Moreover, torches are no longer required, eliminating the risk or injury to employees.

Please visit Investor Presentation Here

Growth Plans - Again the Investor Presentation speaks to growth in the U.S., France, Brazil, and “many other countries.”

Management Team – I don’t know the management team personally, so I simply say let’s judge them on their results and that takes us back to the last quarter’s financials which were very good.

Industry – Oil and gas is high growth, high demand industry with numerous stakeholders.  Given the strong balance sheet, revenues and earnings, PFIE seems like a viable option without the risk that comes along with small producers. For existing wells with relatively known production metrics the PFIE units can increase production and improve margins by utilizing their technologies. With increasing energy regulation coming out of Washington, (right or wrong, it is there) Profire is positioned to help companies meet the new energy and regulatory demand.??So why is Profire Energy potentially undervalued? Simply stated, Profire Energy is not well known outside their small niche of the world, and now Management is beginning to reach out to investors to tell their story.

The good news: It is a story based on numbers rather than a “story”.

The bad news: Investors will ALWAYS buy earnings per share, and PFIE may not be hidden for long. Please see the Profire Investor Presentation:

Efficacious Treatment Already Generating Revenues

RegenoCELL is unique in that it’s already generating revenues from stem cell therapy that targets congestive heart failure. Many of these patients only have 3-6 months to live and have run out of options within the United States. Patients simply have a half liter of blood drawn which is sent to the company’s Israeli facility where stem cells and other more mature cells are extracted and replicated.

Since  stem cell procedures for indications other than cancer require approval in the United States, patients are transported  to countries where autologous (same patient) stem cell treatments are permitted to undergo an angioplasty-like procedure. The stem cells help create blood vessels in order to improve blood flow in the heart. While the procedure isn’t covered by insurance right now, the company has already realized over $600,000 in sales so far in 2011.

After undergoing the treatment, patients almost immediately report feeling better and realize the majority of the benefits after 3-6 months. With more than 500 patients treated, the company has seen a 90%+ survival rate after two years. This statistic is impressive given that many of these patients were so-called “no option” patients with 3 to 6 months to live.

Profits Used to Fund U.S. and E.U. Clinical Trials

RegenoCELL is working to scale its revenue generating business to help support its U.S. and E.U. clinical trials. With just 8 cell batches per month required to break even on its revenue generating business, the company has a very scalable model and is poised to get beyond break even at its cell processing operations in Israel next year. That cash coupled with raises over two years will fund these upcoming clinical trials.

The clinical trials will be focused on peripheral artery disease, but will use the same stem cell treatment as its congestive heart failure therapy. That is, stem cells are used to support angiogenesis and improve blood flow. Ultimately, an approval for this indication would enable it to receive insurance payouts and target much larger potential markets.

The data generated in its existing business may also help it expedite clinical trials. For instance, the safety profile of the therapy is well established with over 500 patients treated, meaning that it may be able to skip or fast track its way through Phase I safety trials. And the efficacy data could even help expedite its Phase II preliminary efficacy trials.

A Great Investment Opportunity

RegenoCELL is unlike many other stem cell companies in that it’s already generating revenues, but still has long-term plans to market in the U.S. and E.U. On top of this, the favorable results from 500 patients already treated should help give some clarity to its clinical pipeline. Combined, this makes it an attractive investment opportunity for those in biotech.

Forum vs. Social Media Engagement

Online forums engage users more than many other types of social media. For instance, some 85.3% of all Twitter users post less than one update per day, while 21% haven’t posted any tweets at all, according to Marketwire. Other social media giants, like LinkedIn, aren’t faring much better with 1% of its users accounting for 34% of its traffic by some estimates.

By contrast, most online forums attract a passionate and more engaged user base. For example, CrowdGather has approximately 16 million people registered on their network sites with more than 350 million posts, according to their latest 10-Q filing with the SEC. Moreover, forum users tend to be centered around one niche – such as golf or paintball – making them ideal for advertisers looking for better targeting.

Bridging the Social Monetization Gap

Many Internet stocks are valued by a metric called Average Revenue Per User (ARPU). For example, Facebook had an ARPU of $2.30 in December of 2009, according to a Deloitte study. While ARPU figures are on the rise, they are still much lower than many forms of traditional advertising, which is one of the reasons why companies like LinkedIn aren’t yet profitable.

CrowdGather offers a bridge between these two forms of income. Since online forums drive search traffic, the company generates a high number of page views and can monetize its properties via traditional CPM/CPC advertising. However, its advertising platform is also being fine-tuned to target specific niches and users, which could expand its possibilities.

A Better Alternative to Traditional Social Media

CrowdGather Inc. (OTCBB: CRWG) offers investors a unique opportunity in the social media sector. Its network of online forums offer greater user engagement than traditional social media, while its search engine friendly content gives it more revenue streams than many cash-burning social media giants out there today.

Founded by Bruce Perlowin, known as the “king of pot” in the industry, the company is well positioned to capitalize on the industry. In a recent Last Vegas City Life article, Mr. Perlowin outlined his history and belief that the marijuana industry will open up in the future, creating new market opportunities for investors in the industry.

Enormous Market for Marijuana

Since marijuana is an illegal drug, there are few ways to track its sales. But economists, law enforcement and lobbyists have estimates that range from $10 billion to over $120 billion per year. And CNBC has pegged the market at some $35-45 billion using a variety of different valuation techniques.

Marijuana Inc. is focused on the peripheral businesses created by this market. While the $35-45 billion range is for marijuana sales alone, these peripheral businesses could represent a substantial and growing market. And the market could be poised to rapidly expand if marijuana is legalized in certain states or nationwide – a move that could raise significant tax dollars.

A Focus on the Peripherals

Since marijuana remains illegal in the United States, Marijuana Inc. is focused on the peripheral industries that it sees surrounding the drug. The company recently launched its KushClear™ and Wild Herb Naturals nutraceutical product lines, along with an entertainment division that’s promoting a new book called “The Golden Gate Smuggling Company”.

At a time when many medical marijuana companies are struggling, the company believes the peripheral business could yield opportunities. Companies like General Cannabis Inc. and Cannabis Science Inc. are trading down more than 60% year to date, while Marijuana Inc. is trading up more than 60% since it began trading in October.

About Marijuana Inc.

Marijuana, Inc. (PINK: HEMP) intends to focus on the huge peripheral businesses created by the quickly emerging, and growing, multibillion dollar medical marijuana and hemp industries.

Marijuana, Inc. will not be involved at the current time in growing, transporting or marketing medical marijuana itself – however it will be creating an infrastructure to do parts of this upon the companies expected legalization federally in all 50 states (pending any federal licensing or other requirements that may be enacted after marijuana prohibition ends).

CEO Bruce Perlowin stated, “Preparing for this potential change in the marijuana and industrial hemp laws by having one or more channels of distribution and industrial hemp manufacturing facilities in place ahead of time would give Marijuana, Inc. a distinct advantage in the marketplace while other peripheral industry business endeavors expand our brand awareness as well as targeting economically desirable and lucrative opportunities in this industry.” www.marijuanainc.tv (still under construction).

President David Tobias also stated, “We are all now at the right place at the right time, with the right experience, to take advantage of an industry that has been around for thousands of years and rapidly emerging into mainstream countries as a new economic force in dozens of areas. Over the past few years it has become apparent that with the increasing pace of new products and services hitting the marketplace that this industry provides unique opportunities for a vast array of business ventures. Later this week, we will be announcing the launch into this market, our first of many products applicable to the medical marijuana and other related, or similar, industries that has never been applied here before.”

The oil and gas industry receives plenty of press on a daily basis, as commodity traders thrive on its volatility and as majors such as Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE: XOM) help drive the Dow Jones Industrial Average.  There is a component to the oil and gas industry that, while less publicized, plays a critical role in the safety and efficiency of oil and gas production that is garnering more industry attention.  From an investors’ standpoint, this subsector carries a larger upside than the majority of “typical” plays in the oil and gas space.

There are more than one million oil and gas wells in the United States and Canada combined.  Each of those wells necessitates a burner to heat a vessel through which oil and gas travel. The vast majority of those fuel trains still use open, gas fired flames that bring with them a myriad of problems.  For starters, there is no regulation capacity to an open flame, so the flame burns continuously, whether it is needed or not, releasing dangerous (and environmentally-unfriendly) emissions and wasting the source fuel.  Moreover, if the flame is extinguished for any reason, the source fuel continues to flow until it is manually noted that the flame went out.  Hand-held torches are then used to re-light the flame, which is obviously a very dangerous proposition that has resulted in many injuries.

The solution is Burner Management Systems (BMS).  Established in 2002, Profire Energy Inc. (OTCBB: PFIE) is a leader in BMS that is filling the many voids in the safety and efficiency of upstream pipeline flow of oil and gas, while helping the industry reduce its carbon footprint.  Several models have been developed over the last decade, with Profire’s latest model, the 2100 BMS, steadily grabbing more and more market share.

With its electronic ignition and series of sensors, the flame is only lit when the pipeline requires, saving countless amounts of fuel and greatly reducing emissions.  Any problems with ignition or the unit are remotely relayed, saving manpower and money.  Moreover, torches are no longer required, eliminating the risk or injury to employees.

Combining cutting-edge technologies has helped dramatically increase revenue and net income for Profire.  The company’s most recent SEC filings show that revenue surged to $4.5 million and net income jumped to $1.65 million in the latest quarter; up from $2,137,022 and $894,093, respectively, from the same period in 2010.  At its current pace, Profire will top $10 million in revenue for the year.  Savvy investors will also notice that Profire is debt-free, a claim that most OTC companies cannot stake.

A stronger enforcement of both safety and environmental regulations is sweeping across the oil and gas industry.  Coupled with realizations of savings by implementing BMS, the industry is being driven quickly forward, but is only realizing a fraction of its potential at this point.  Conservative estimates place the market value at roughly $4 billion presently in North America alone.  Oversea potential takes the market value substantially higher.  Most industries are flooded with competition, but such is not the case with BMS as the ratio of suppliers to demand leaves plenty of “pie for everyone”.  With its recently increased sales team and growing awareness, Profire could potentially capture three to four percent of the market, which would push revenue in excess of $100 million annually and significantly bolster its 78 cent price tag and tiny $35 million current market cap.

In addition to expanding its industry footprint, Profire Energy is also more aggressively marketing its brand through its social media presence.  Investors are encouraged to “Follow” the company on Twitter (http://twitter.com/#!/ProfireNews)  and “Like” Profire on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Profire-Energy/181282608629883) to keep up with industry news and corporate developments.

Production Starts with Producers

Gryphon’s lead is John Key, who wears many hats as President, CEO and Director.  Mr. Key has his M.S. in Mining Engineering and more than three decades of extensive mining experience working for Teck Cominco organization, an amalgamation of Teck and Cominco, now Teck Resources (TSX: TCK.A/TCK.B, NYSE: TCK).  During his tenure at Teck Cominco, Key was General Manager Projects and directly responsible for running, in succession, the Magmont, Polaris, and Red Dog mines.

Gryphon’s Interim Chief Financial Officer, Ted Sharp, C.P.A., also serves as CFO, Secretary and Treasurer of Goldrich Mining Company (NASDAQ: GRMC) and brings more than 30 years of highly relevant experience in working for  public companies to the team.

Steve Jones is Gryphon’s Vice President Operations and brings with him an unparalleled resume.  He has been a manager and principle geologist for Kennecott Exploration, a subsidiary of Rio Tinto (NYSE: RIO), as well as a consulting geologist for projects in Argentina, Mexico, and Nevada.  Mr. Jones has also managed exploration programs for Kinross Gold (NYSE: KGC, TSX: K), Astral Mining (TSX-Venture: AA), Argonaut Gold (TSX: AR) and Peregrine Metals (recently acquired by Stillwater Mining Company (NYSE:SWC)).

This is just the beginning of the mining and SEC veterans that are guiding Gryphon towards generating substantial revenue through their unique re-leaching of heaps at Borealis.  Investors can learn more at the Gryphon Gold website.

Raising Money the Right Way

Undoubtedly drawing upon skills from overseeing over $300 million in capital expansions at Red Dog, Mr. Key helped Gryphon successfully complete a $10 million public offering in May, 2011.  The proceeds were used to fund the new production operations at the Borealis project.

Offerings can often be a death sentence to share value, but not when managed correctly as in the case of Gryphon.  In fact, shares have been firmly on the rise since the completion of the $10 million raise, surging from a low of $0.125 to break 35 cents and still hold over $0.27 presently.  Where so many companies need the funds to work towards the next level of development (where more funds will be needed again), Gryphon has put their cash to use for production operations; genuinely adding substantial value to the company for its shareholders on its path to prosperity.

The Whole Kit and Caboodle

Becoming a successful gold company is a difficult and expensive process.  Countless explorers shut their doors before ever becoming profitable, often times a consequence of poor decisions.  A proficient leadership team is mandatory to make prescient decisions to maximize on every opportunity.  Gryphon Gold has quality and experienced people manning positions from bootstraps to executives.

In 2009, there were 824,847 oil and gas wells in the United States alone. Factor in the more than 500 Canadian companies that are actively operating and drilling wells and the total number of oil and gas wells in North America easily tops one million presently.

With a concerted effort to increase safety and the well-publicized initiatives to reduce emissions globally, energy companies are turning to Burner Management Systems (BMS) to eliminate injuries, operate more efficiently and cut emission rates.  Profire Energy, Inc. (OTCBB: PFIE) is an industry leader in BMS and exercising an increasingly deep penetration into the market.  The reason is simple.  The ratio of market size to competition gives Profire a large upside.  Each of the more than one million wells and their associated vessels in the U.S. and Canada suggests multiple applications for burner management systems.  Conservatively speaking, the North American market alone is in excess of $4 billion (roughly 2k per application x 2 BMS per well x 1 million wells) and Profire keeps getting more and more of it.

Profire’s latest quarterly SEC filings show increases in revenue to $4.52 million and net income to $1.18 million, representing gains of more than 100 percent for each as compared to the year prior quarter.  A true anomaly in the OTC markets, Profire is debt-free, is on pace to exceed $10 million in revenue in 2011 and is regularly showing strong growth quarter over quarter.  Yet, the company remains under the radar of the general investment community despite a tiny $33 million market cap and exponential growth or acquisition possibilities.

With nine years of experience in the market, the company’s platform agnostic and cloud-based approach benefits both customers and shareholders. Customers can realize lower costs and more reliable systems, while shareholders benefit from more predictable revenue streams, a highly scalable business model, and an enormous addressable market.

Revolutionizing Traditional Security Systems

Currently, most video surveillance is done using CCTV with on-site cameras, recorders and (believe it or not) VHS videotapes. These solutions are expensive to purchase, must be actively managed, and are prone to several potential security vulnerabilities. Moreover, failures can go un-noticed for a long time and maintenance can prove very costly.

Iveda Solutions combines existing hardware with a cloud-based hosted software solution to solve these problems. With lower overhead expenses and automated recording, its systems are easy to integrate and scale across multiple locations at a very low cost. And since it’s platform agnostic, the system can be installed with any existing hardware, making it very cheap to switch.

Business Model Could Unlock Significant Value

Most investors live by the motto that “cash is king” and cash flow matters. Since they have unproven sales strategies, most early-stage companies have unstable cash flows. After all, most companies realize cash only when they sell a product, while service companies must repeatedly find new clients to serve in order to keep the cash coming in the door.

Iveda Solutions’ business model generates revenue from multiple sources, including recurring revenue from services. And unlike many traditional service companies, its platform is highly reliable, scalable and very likely to be renewed after a customer initially signs on. The result is a highly predictable revenue stream that grows over time with relatively little friction.

A Great Investment Opportunity

A recent report from MarketsandMarkets, a research firm, indicated that the global video surveillance market is expected to grow from $11.5 billion in 2008 to $37.7 billion in 2015 at a CAGR of 20.4% from 2010 to 2015.

Last quarter, Iveda Solutions reported rapidly expanding revenues that jumped more than 220% to $588,339. Of this amount, 37% of its revenues were recurring service revenues, while 63% was from equipment sales and installation. To learn more about Iveda Solutions, please see the following:

Under the direction of a new President, the company is undergoing a change from an equipment vendor to a full service operator. The change enables the firm to transition away from difficult one-off machine sales to easier recurring revenues from operation. Notably, the shift is also expected to result in strong revenue growth near-term profitability.

Unique Technology & Business Model

MagneGas has developed a unique technology that converts a hydrogen-based fuel through the gasification of liquid waste[i]. Using a proprietary plasma arc machine, the new fuel generated is a green alternative to natural gas that potentially can be used in a variety of different markets ranging from the metal working industry to municipal waste markets.

The company is targeting a number of different industries with this technology, the metal working market being among its largest target markets. With five fuel distributors already signed up, the firm will market through established industry wholesalers, trade events and media coverage in industry trade journals, among other things.

Strong Growth, Near-term Profitability

MagneGas has already seen strong revenue growth this year, noting in its 10-Q filing that new and existing customers are showing increased interest.  Under its new model, revenues hit $61,253 last quarter, but may be poised to grow sharply in the coming quarters. The firm estimates that it will breakeven by March of 2012.

The company’s balance sheet is also attractive to investors with no long-term debt and a quick ratio in excess of 4x. Combined with current assets of $2.35 million.

A Great Investment Opportunity

MagneGas represents a compelling investment opportunity with its unique technology and new business model. With strong sales growth and profitability on the horizon, the company is uniquely positioned to unlock significant value for investors in the near-term. As a result, this is one stock that green energy investors may want to watch closely over the coming quarters.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of the effectiveness of management’s strategies and decisions, general economic and business conditions, new or modified statutory or regulatory requirements and changing price and market conditions.

Marijuana Inc (Pinksheets: HEMP.PK) is proud to applaud Presidential candidates, including Republican Hermain Cain, for his stance on the regulation of medical marijuana dispensaries, stating that those decisions are best left to the states, as reported in the November 16 issue of the Huffington Post (See article).

“If states want to legalize medical marijuana, I think that’s a state’s right,” said Cain, in an interview with NBC News’ Andrew Rafferty. “Because one of my overriding approaches to looking at all of these issues — most of them belong at the state, because when you do something federally… you try to force one-size-fits-all.” Cain’s comments, which came at a campaign stop in Urbandale, Iowa, marks the first time that Cain has taken a position on the legalization of medical cannabis.

Additionally, Republican presidential candidate Gary Johnson has already come out in favor of legalizing marijuana, telling the Huffington Post in a recent interview that “it’s only a matter of time before marijuana is legalized.”

In an interview with Outside Magazine, he called pot smokers, “the largest untapped voting bloc in the country,” pointing to a recently released Gallup poll showing that a record high 50 percent of Americans favor legalizing marijuana, up from just 36 percent in 2006. Those numbers could have significant implications for candidates on the campaign trail.

Texas Gov. Republican Rick Perry has advocated a states’ rights approach to medical marijuana, while Ron Paul (R-Texas) has called for an end to the war on drugs, insisting, like a growing number of presidential candidates, that marijuana laws should be set by the states.

David Tobias, the President of Marijuana, Inc. (HEMP.pk), stated, “The most recent Gallop Poll shows 50% of Americans favor the legalization of marijuana, and one WashPost/ABC News poll found support for legalizing medical marijuana to be as high as 81%. This popular support indicates that various aspects of the marijuana industry will continue to be a growth sector in the economic landscape, and our company is indeed at the right place at the right time.”

“The fact that mainstream presidential candidates like Herman Cain and Rick Perry are saying that their administrations would respect states’ rights to implement medical marijuana laws shows just how far this debate has come,” said Tom Angell, spokesman for the legalization advocacy group Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (http://www.leap.cc) in an email to HuffPost on Wednesday. “Support for reforming our marijuana laws is no longer considered a third rail of politics — if it ever was one — and politicians are increasingly realizing that it is a good move to align themselves with the 80 percent of the public that supports medical marijuana.”

CEO of Marijuana, Inc. (HEMP.PK) Bruce Perlowin stated, “Sixteen states and the District of Columbia have passed laws legalizing medical marijuana, and at least six more will be voting on this issue in the 2012 elections. The growth curve of the recreational marijuana, medical cannabis and industrial hemp industries is continuing to expand. Keeping ahead of this curve is historically something we have always done in our personal and business entrepreneurial endeavors here at Marijuana, Inc.”

ABOUT MARIJUANA, INC.

Rebuilding the Biofuel Boom

Biofuels have been getting attention for a number of years with corn-based ethanol as a pace horse sending stocks such as Pacific Ethanol (NASDAQ:PEIX) from $1.40 to $20. But… other factors such as questions of true viability, subsidy issues, tax credit revocations and cropland displacement have certainly thwarted optimism, perhaps somewhat unjustifiably.   The reality is that ethanol is a permanent part of gasoline and will be a valuable commodity for the foreseeable future.  How it is derived is the point in question.  As such, investors are on the prowl for entry levels on the next hot biofuel and many of savvy are turning to the algae industry.

As a preferred biofuel feedstock, as well as other applications, algae technology is still in its infancy, but rapidly being realized for massive potential.  Extracting and separating oil contained inside of algae cells provides a product which can be refined into many types of fuel, including diesel, gasoline, jet fuel, and even ethanol.

Outside of the industry, many may not even know about it.  Inside the industry, however, the buzz is strong and garnering mainstream attraction day by day.  The new boom is about to begin.

Why Algae?

Just for starters, algae is far more efficient for converting solar energy into chemical energy than terrestrial crops.  This bridges the expansive land area issues associated with corn and soy (two common bases for biofuel) production.  Moreover land and water required for algae doesn’t have to be arable or potable, respectively.  This makes areas such as the desert Southwest of the U.S. usable, when in many other instances it is not.   As such, algae is no competition for precious food resources.

The Trend Shift and New Catalyst

An October article in Algae Industry Magazine.com focused on the aviation industry as a catalyst for algae feedstock explosion.  More succinctly, the article stated “Jet fuel will prime the pump for algae’s increasing dominance as the global renewable fuel of choice.”  It also noted Boeing’s (NYSE:BA) biofuel-powered non-stop flight from Seattle to Paris as a showcase of the feasibility of biofuel for jets.  While that flight may have been the “Wright Brothers” type of milestone, Solazyme was back in the news demonstrating mainstream uses for its biofuel.  According to the news, United Airlines (NYSE:UAL) has made the first U.S. commercial flight using Solajet™, a blend that includes 60 percent petroleum-based jet fuel and 40 percent biofuel.  Solazyme has made several large-scale sales of its algae-based biofuel product, including a massive order for the U.S. Navy.  The Naval order goes hand-in-hand with government initiatives to slash fossil fuel use by 50 percent over the next decade.

The trend shift is happening worldwide.  For example, Australia’s largest ethanol producer, Manildra, has announced plans to diversify in algae.

Wending way for further new technologies is OriginOil, Inc.  The company’s technology helps algae growers extract oil from algae for use as a feedstock for the commercial production of transportation fuels, chemicals and foods. In one fluid process, OriginOil’s revolutionary technology dewaters and breaks down algae for its useful products, overcoming one of the greatest challenges in making algae a viable replacement for petroleum.   The Company intends to issue licenses for its technology and enable algae producers to reach commercialization, reduce costs and cut carbon emissions.

Triple-Digit Top & Bottom Line Growth

Last quarter, Profire Energy reported net income that rose 103% to $1,185,658, or $0.03 per share, on revenues that increased 112% to $4,522,251. The strong results were due to significant growth in both its goods and services divisions. Several new customers started purchasing systems this quarter as Profire expanded its dedicated sales staff.

While the company experienced a temporary spike in its cost of goods sold, management has addressed the issue with a sourcing employee and is expanding their production suppliers. Investors can expect these efforts to result in stabilized expenses and a long-term decline in costs as it realizes greater economies of scale.

Significantly Undervalued in the Right Market

Profire Energy appears significantly undervalued with a price-earnings ratio of just 10.3x its trailing 12-month earnings per share. Looking ahead, this earnings multiple will only decrease with triple-digit bottom-line growth rates that hit $0.03 per share this past quarter. In fact, on an annualized basis, the current net income could equate to a P/E ratio of just 6.8x.

Given its significant growth rates, the company’s earnings multiple should be much higher. Many analysts believe that a fair valuation is a P/E ratio roughly equivalent to its long-term growth rate – or a PEG ratio of 1.0. Assuming just a 20% annual long-term growth rate, this would equate to a share price of $2.40, which is nearly 200% higher than its current price.

A Great Long-term Investment Opportunity

Profire Energy represents an attractive investment opportunity at its current levels. Despite reporting triple-digit increases in its top and bottom line results, the company trades with an earnings multiple of 10.3x trailing and just 6.8x forward. These figures point to a fair valuation that could be in excess of $2.00 per share, according to metrics used by many analysts.

• Company Website
• Recent SEC Filings

Zacks Research is an analyst with a bullish outlook on the company. The analyst set a 6-month price target of $1.75 per share in July of 2011, which represents a significant 929% premium to the current market price. Among the reasons for the high target, the analyst cited high sales increases, improving traffic figures, and a low value per user relative to other companies.

Traffic Provides Leverage for Monetization

CrowdGather’s growing traffic figures have generated interest from analysts and investors. In July, the company announced that its network page views and unique visitors doubled year-over-year. Then in September, the firm announced that its monthly traffic jumped 50% after it purchased Yuku.com. And recently, the company hit a level of 235mm page views and 23mm unique visits each month.

These improving traffic statistics should help CrowdGather better package and monetize its traffic. And with its acquisition of Adisn’s advertising technology in June of 2010, the company is preparing to monetize its traffic with even higher CPMs. Zacks Research added that this will likely produce upside revenue surprises in FY2012, but it didn’t include the projections into the aforementioned price target.

Acquisitions Build Shareholder Value

CrowdGather has also become extremely adept at acquiring and effectively monetizing online forums. By offsetting acquisitions’ dilution with his previously canceled shares, CEO Sanjay Sabnani’s acquisition strategy aims for a very rapid payback period and high return on investment. Ultimately, these acquisitions are meant to build a base that will continue to drive its rapid growth moving forward.

In the future, the company’s proprietary advertising network should help it leverage these acquisitions even more. Higher CPM rates will help immediately improve revenues, while expanding this advertising platform beyond its own network would create a whole new revenue stream. Combined, these factors could help the firm meet and exceed the price targets set by analysts like Zacks Research.

A Great Opportunity

CrowdGather has taken a unique approach to the online publishing and advertising industries. By targeting forums, the company leverages passionate users to give advertisers unparalleled exposure for their brands. The firm’s acquisition of Adisn also provides it with the technology needed to create its own online advertising platform, and generate significant long-term value for shareholders.

• Zack’s Research Report

In addition to this commercialization, the company is becoming more transparent with shareholders. The firm retained Eric Littman as its securities attorney and is working diligently to provide updated financial statements to remove the “OTC Pink No Information” designation from its OTC Markets profile, which is expected to occur within two weeks.

HEMP Launches Nutraceutical Product Line

Last month, Marijuana Inc. announced that launch of its KushClear™ nutraceutical product line focused on the medical marijuana community. The company’s all-natural products include a hemp protein powder with spirulina, AFA blue-green algae, Cordyceps and Rhodiola Rosea, as well as male and female “enhancement” supplements. The firm recorded its first revenues from both the KushClear (www.KushClear.com) and Wild Herb Naturals (www.WildHerbNaturals.com) lines with online sales and has had a strong, positive response from distributors nationwide to carry these two initial lines.

The nutraceutical products are delivered in liquid or powder forms that are much more effective than tablets or capsules that pass through the body without dissolving. As well, they are enhanced with a Agronifier™ technology, developed by Ferris Holding Inc., that uses a combination of electromagnetic and sound waves to increase their efficacy. The company plans to launch more products in both of these lines over the next 24 months.

New Books & Other Ventures Build Value

Marijuana Inc. also recently began marketing a new book entitled “The Golden Gate Smuggling Company – A San Francisco Marijuana Empire” that marks the beginning of its entertainment division’s commercialization. The book is available now on its website, www.kushclear.com, Amazon.com, and many local bookstores.

The company also announced its Eco-Harmony Loyalty Benefits and Rewards Card that targets cultural creative merchants and customers from a wide variety of industries. Already, the card has begun generating revenues for shareholders, as well as raised money for non-profits and the medical marijuana movement.

A Great Early-Stage Investment Opportunity

Marijuana Inc. represents a great early-stage investment opportunity. With its commercialization phase underway, the company is uniquely positioned to generate shareholder value as the company begins to realize revenues. Meanwhile, its efforts to increase transparency should open the doors to many more investors.

Distinguishing characteristics of the company’s business are its combination of management experience specific to operating a public company within the marijuana industry, sales and distribution experience, high-quality, innovative products in an industry that is undergoing a rapid and dramatic transformation and growth curve.

With promising resources identified in its NI 43-101 report and a favorable business environment in Slovakia, this is a stock that investors may want to watch closely as it completes its feasibility studies.

Strieborná Property Shows Great Promise

Global Mineral’s Strieborná property is a high-grade silver-copper-antimony vein type deposit in a historic mining district near the city of Roznava in eastern Slovakia. Since as early as the 1200s, miners have been digging for gold, silver and iron in the abundant mining district. The company’s NI 43-101 resource in the area has high-grade polymetallic mineralization with excellent infrastructure in place.

Here are the grades identified in its NI 43-101 report:

Currently, the company is finishing up the sampling of old mine dumps, compiling data, conducting mercury spectrometry and completing geophysical surveys. According to recent press releases, the firm expects to identify potential gold drill targets by the end of the year and complete a feasibility study soon thereafter, which will provide enormous additional insight to investors.

It’s a Great Time to Invest in Slovakia

Slovakia itself is also an excellent investment destination due to its political and economic stability. As a eurozone member, the country utilizes the euro currency and a simple taxation system that is very business-friendly. Major investors in the region include companies like U.S. Steel, IBM, Whirlpool, Deutsche Telekom, Sony, and a variety of other international companies.

Interestingly, Slovakia has sustained the highest GDP growth in the European Union, reporting 10.4% growth in 2007 and the highest rating from the four Visegrad Group countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland). Even as Europe has been dragged down by a sovereign debt crisis, the country is poised to report positive growth in 2012. Meanwhile, foreign direct investment increased more than 600% since the year 2000.

About Global Minerals Ltd.

Global Minerals is focused on the development of its 100% owned Strieborná silver-copper-antimony deposit in Slovakia.

About Strieborná

Strieborná is a high-grade silver-copper-antimony vein type deposit in an historic mining district near the town of Roznava in eastern Slovakia. The current NI 43-101 resource occurs within a mineralized structure 1.2 km long, 600 m deep and an average thickness of 3.4 m. The resource has been defined by diamond drilling and a series of four horizontal underground drifts totaling 3,000 m. The mineralization is open in various directions along the vein structure. Other similar structures have been identified within the mining and exploration leases and will be the focus of future exploration drill programs.

Besides the upside of the exploration potential and the high-grade nature of the polymetallic mineralization, the project has excellent infrastructure, including sufficient electrical power, railway access, paved highways and a work force experienced with underground operations. Underground access is available via old mine workings.

Additionally, Global Minerals has acquired a 136 sq km of exploration concessions in the surrounding region. Prospect generation and exploration in this under-explored area will be parallel with Strieborná development.

In this seven-minute video, WSM provides a comprehensive overview of the company’s unique online conferencing and visual collaboration technologies. The video also covers the various industries that are targeted with this technology, ranging from healthcare to mining and government.

2-Week Recap

Lead generation is about horizontal expansiveness.  SMA Alliance began building their technology steadily throughout the past year, but has hit the gas to expand the breadth of their domain in the fourth quarter.  In the waning days of October, SMA Alliance reported that it had formed a major alliance with Carstir.com, an auction house that has developed a solution that monetizes dealer-to-dealer inventory transactions.  With over 300 active dealers in their network, Carstir.com a hot commodity as one of the largest dealer-to-dealer auction sites available today.

Also fueling the momentum behind SMAA was a new deal that was struck just over a week ago to kick-off November.  The Company reported “another dominating move” to adding Viral Solutions to their portfolio of partners.  Viral Solutions is a multi-faceted sales organization that provides customized solutions in the areas of sales development, sales training, consulting, marketing and e-marketing, brand awareness, and social media presence and positioning.  In the world of online strategies, the words “going viral” are two of the most powerful words available in any marketing efforts.  This new alliance will facilitate SMAA a deeper market penetration reaching even more auto dealerships, thus broadening its domestic footprint

Building Upon the Base

As mentioned, SMA Alliance meticulously developed its technology – the building blocks for its future – before revving the motor recently.  These new relationships continue to strengthen the infrastructure of SMA Alliance as the tiers of the business continue to be built upon a strong foundation.  The speed at which the deals are happening is reflective of the caliber of management and the business model.

CEO Anthony Baker summarized things well in recently stating, “Our goal at the end of the day is to bring qualified companies together under one platform allowing our dealerships the most comprehensive program to date. Because of our commitment for success, SMA will continue capturing more of the market share in the automotive sector.”

As their commercial launch approaches, I have to take a moment to revisit VisiInc PLC.  This rapidly growing company, headquartered in Perth, Australia and registered in the UK, is really a game-changer in the fields of content collaboration and teleconferencing. So, consider this an exclusive update – a sneak preview of an unprecedented product and an undiscovered stock.

As I mentioned last time, VisiInc PLC is the company behind the miraculous Vistime – a proprietary platform that enables businesses and institutions to share any content with any number of people around the world in real time regardless of file type or size. Vistime is literally a dream for industry professionals including doctors, scientists, engineers, filmmakers and geologists. The cross-platform compatibility expedites everything from special effects to ultrasounds.

Nothing else out there combines video conferencing, voice conferencing or 3-D collaboration with as many key features. In addition to strong customer traction, VisiInc PLC has caught the eyes of several leading software vendors in web collaboration and CMS. The company is poised to give public comparables like J2 Global Communications Inc. (JCOM), EasyLink Services International Corp. (ESIC) and Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO) a serious run for their money.

Recently, VisiInc PLC  entered into a merger agreement  with VIA3 – an American company that has specialized in private face-to-face web collaboration since 1999. Through this $16 million all-stock acquisition, VisiInc PLC is now the first and only software based FIPS 140-2 certified web conferencing platform on the market. This super-secure combination is not only a match made in heaven, but it’s bursting with near-term potential as well. “In acquiring VIA3, the VisiInc PLC offering will significantly accelerate our Australian E-health market thrust as well as fast track numerous global projects relating to health, medical, aerospace, engineering, geosciences, mining and education markets,” said Founder and CEO Jacques Blandin. VisiInc PLC and VIA3 together are the total package. The stage is set, folks. This is a lead pipe cinch. And, if that aphorism doesn’t do it for you, try this one of for size. You could be the early bird. VisiInc PLC stock could be your worm. Catch it while you can.

Mobile app revenues are expected to reach $36.7 billion by 2015, according to Canalys, while 81% of small and medium-sized businesses are expected to spend $32 billion on mobility and apps in 2011, according to Tech Aisle. Combined, these forces will help the mobile application development market blossom into an estimated $100 billion industry by 2015, according to Research2Guidance.

Business Apps Endorsed by Donald Trump Jr.

MacroSolve has developed a suite of mobile apps that run on platforms ranging from Apple iPhones to Android-based tablet PCs. These apps help business users – ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies – improve their sales processes and brand awareness. SalesSentral combines all major sales tasks into one app, while InsightApps brings a new level of brand awareness to mobile users.

And these business apps have been rapidly gaining popularity after Donald Trump Jr. became a spokesperson. The exact details of the collaboration haven’t been disclosed, but investors can expect the business mogul to promote the company’s products within his own business empire. Meanwhile, the marquee name should also help increase awareness and durability in the market.

Mobility Patent Could Hold Enormous Value

In addition to this strong growth, MacroSolve owns what could be one of the most important patents in mobility. The patent addresses mobile information collection systems across all wireless devices, including tablets, smartphones, and rugged mobile devices, regardless of carrier or handset manufacturer. The addressable market for this patent is projected to grow to $17.5 billion by next year.

The company is currently in the early stages of monetizing this valuable patent. After filing patent infringement lawsuits against 37 companies, including AT&T, Citigroup and Dell, the company has already settled with a portion and has begun licensing discussions with the majority of them. This success should help it proceed against the larger mobile industry.

A Great Investment Opportunity

MacroSolve represents a very unique investment opportunity. With its growing apps business endorsed by Donald Trump Jr., the stage is set for dramatic long-term revenue growth. The broad patent on mobility offers an additional asset that is just now starting to be monetized. As a result, investors can expect to see some near-term revenues and ultimately realize significant long-term potential.

As the world barrels forward through time, the pace of every business accelerates with the technology that surrounds it. Every year, we plunge deeper into a global Internet-driven collaborative. However, existing software has always favored general business users over technical professionals. Where is that universal tool that will quickly allow our doctors, teachers, engineers, filmmakers and government employees to share, manipulate and archive all of their relevant documents?

That’s the $6.2 billion-dollar problem VisiInc. aims to solve with Vistime – their new proprietary patent-pending technology that transfers huge visual files instantaneously and provides real-time Internet collaboration.

This ambitious new company’s goal is to breathe life into their own niche market and expand it across industries. VisiInc. is itching to replace the Remote Desktop Sharing Technology that’s still hanging around countless hospitals, schools and government institutions. Whether it is for content management, web collaboration or as a stand-alone application, Vistime is designed to work with any file type on Macs or PCs. There is no native file software installation necessary and the lack of degraded resolution makes their tool a dream for technical professionals and vertical software vendors.

CEO and President Jacques Blandin leads the prestigious VisiInc management team.  Executive Director of Marketing Glenn Weiland and Senior VP of Sales lead a highly experienced international sales and development team

Any smart investor knows that you bet on the jockey, not the horse. Over the long term, it’s better to do your research and buy stocks in small companies with potential. To quote Peter Lynch, “The stock market really isn’t a gamble as long as you pick good companies that you think will do well, and not just because of the stock price.” We believe that the investors with patience and intestinal fortitude who establish ownership in VisiInc. will look back on their decision with tremendous gratitude and satisfaction.

With more than 500 Enterprise Accounts, growing revenues and a strong management base, VisiInc. could easily turn their throttlehold on Australia into a promising global future. Their biggest competitor is undoubtedly Cisco Systems, Inc., which has been the industry’s main player thanks to more than 20 major acquisitions in its 27-year history. But, look out, because VisiInc. is a hungry contender headed for the ring.

TOTCI: Can you give new investors and/or readers a brief overview of your company?

Mr. Andrew Limpert: We are a provider of safe and efficient burner-management systems and services for use in oilfield combustion. In the oil and natural gas industry there are numerous demands for heat generation and control. The product in pipelines and storage tanks must be kept sufficiently warm to flow efficiently. Equipment of all kinds, including line-heaters, dehydrators, dewaterers, separators, treaters, amine reboilers, free-water knockout systems, etc. require sources of heat to satisfy their various functions. In addition to the need for combustion products to meet heating demands, there is also a need for skilled combustion technicians. Profire builds products and provides services designed to address some of these needs.

TOTCI: Last quarter, Profire released a very bullish earnings report (10-Q) showing a 248% increase in revenues and a net income of 2 cents per share. Do you expect this kind of growth to continue?

Mr. Limpert: The revenue growth rate of 248% is compared to the same quarter last year. While that type of growth rate is difficult to sustain, we are excited about the future growth prospects and feel we will meet or exceed our historical annual growth rate of 35%. With our new operations in the U.S. and those internationally, we have more than ample growth opportunities for our core products and other products we might introduce in the future.

TOTCI: On that note, you entered into the U.S. marketplace with new offices and management in Lindon, Utah. How has that strategy been working so far and where do you see it headed long-term?

Mr. Limpert: We see the U.S. being a significant driver of growth for many years.  The shipping and assembly that we have already started to implement there are being well received by clients. In particular, it has cut transportation costs and other expenses associated with international shipping.  We feel the Lindon office will continue to grow and perhaps someday be larger than the Edmonton base.

TOTCI: Profire is a profitable and growing company, but the OTCBB keeps some investors out of the stock. Do you have plans to up-list on the NASDAQ, AMEX or another higher stock exchange?

Mr. Limpert: The company realizes the limitations of the OTCBB, but we continue to meet all reporting obligations to remain transparent to the market. We are committed to generating shareholder value, and that includes not only focusing on sustainable operational growth and profitability but also liquidity in the marketplace. So yes, the company is interested in applying for a listing to a national exchange and will apply as soon as it qualifies and it makes sense.

TOTCI: Where do you see Profire over the next two years? Do you plan to make acquisitions in the sector or do you view yourself as an acquisition target? What level of revenues do you see reaching?

Mr. Limpert: We see Profire growing and looking for other opportunities to provide safe, efficient and green friendly technologies to the oil and natural gas sectors. Furthermore, we see the development of the U.S. market which has nearly one million applicable wells helping to generate significant shareholder value.  And finally, we see a steady introduction of innovative solutions to the industry. We have not identified any acquisitions for our company but will always be looking to add value, including, if the price and time are right to be acquired.

While we don’t make projections we feel the size of the market for our products would be in excess of a billion dollars. This doesn’t include multiple applications per well and things like that. Also, we cannot predict industry or competitive forces. Having said that, we feel that our historical growth rate of revenue of 35% annual is achievable and has the potential to be exceeded. In fiscal 2011 ended March 31^st, we achieved $8 million in revenue.  That is a good benchmark, however with new salespeople and an expanded geographical footprint, we feel we are well positioned to grow.

NI 43-101 Shows Significant Gold Resources

Gryphon Gold completed a NI 43-101 compliant pre-feasibility study in April of 2011 that showed very promising results. The report projected production of 368,800 ounces of gold mined, 238,504 ounces of gold recovered, and 40,00 ounces of annual gold sales. With a gold cash operating cost of just $476/oz. for the first 2 years, and an average cost of $822/oz. over the life of the mine, the project is expected to produce an internal rate of return in excess of 344%.

In an August 2011 investor presentation, the company used this data to show that it could generate total net revenues of $50.9 million with $1,500 per ounce gold prices. And with its net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs), this would translate to a significant net income in the near-term that would only increase if gold prices remain at current levels or move higher.

Gryphon Gold Trades at a 1x Forward Multiple

Gryphon Gold currently trades with a market capitalization of just $54.3 million, as of October 21, 2011. With estimated net revenues in excess of $50 million during the first year of production, this means that the stock could be substantially undervalued at these levels. In fact, the company’s forward price-earnings multiple – a commonly used valuation metric – is an ultralow 1x.

And contrary to what the current valuation suggests, these revenues and net income are not distant prospects. The company announced on October 17^th that it has already begun shipping loaded carbon to Just Refiners Inc. of Reno, NV. The first production shipment was 4.05 wet tons of carbon loaded with gold and silver and should help the firm report its first revenues this quarter.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Gryphon Gold represents a great investment opportunity at its current levels. With revenues on the way this quarter and drilling already commenced, investors can expect to see results in quarters not years. And in an uncertain economy where consumer spending remains lackluster, the company’s primary product (gold) is one of the only true safe-havens.

Gryphon Gold Corp. (OTCBB: GYPH) became the second junior gold producer in Nevada in 2011 after having shipped carbon columns loaded with silver and gold from its Borealis Mine in Mineral County. Gryphon’s President, John Key, called the shipment a “milestone event” for the company.

According to sources in the company, Gryphon Gold will be shipping carbon columns bi-weekly from here on out and could report gold production figures sometime in the second half of November.

The company’s shares set a new 52-week hi in early morning trading on the Over-the-counter bulletin board market Monday, reaching a hi of $0.32.

GYPH completed a secondary offering in May, having raised $10 million through an underwriting led by Roth Capital in the U.S. with Acumen Capital of Alberta managing the Canadian sale of common stock.  In all, the two underwriters brought in enough buying to take down $1 million of the underwriters overalottment.  Proceeds from the offering allowed Gryphon Gold to build out its leach pad operation and with the help of an additional $3 million in debt, also placed by the underwriters, the company had the capital to build the ADR plant.  The plant will permit the processing of carbon into bullion on-site, saving as much as 5% in costs.  The company expects the plant to be in operation sometime during the beginning of the new year.

Gryphon Gold is forecasting an annual production rate of approximately 48,000 ounces of gold once in full production at a cost basis near $400 per ounce this year.  Based on current prices, that would put the company’s pre-tax earnings somewhere in the $60 million range.  For shareholders, Monday’s announcement on shipping carbon columns may be a ‘milestone event’, as Key stated, though production figures to come later this fall could substantiate Gryphon Gold’s forecast.

Galveston Bay Property Worth $54MM

In February of this year, Strategic American Oil acquired Galveston Bay Energy and has already re-completed and placed its initial well into production in Texas while working on several others. Meanwhile, multiple high-value drilling targets have been identified in the area, where only 20-30 of 120 wells are producing. This low-hanging fruit could provide investors with a strong catalyst over the coming quarters.

A recent engineering report from Ralph E. Davis Associates Inc. estimated net proved reserves of 979,000 barrels of oil and 13 billion cubic feet of natural gas. These figures translate to a value of around $75.3 million undiscounted and $54.6 million discounted at 10% in net proved reserves for the company. With a current market cap of just $16.62 million, the stock could be significantly undervalued.

Hands-Off Development in Illinois and Louisiana

Strategic American Oil has additional properties in Illinois and Louisiana, which are fully operated by partners in the area. Its Illinois properties are located in the Illinois Basin that has an estimated 4.1 billion barrels of oil remaining to be produced. Meanwhile, its Louisiana properties are situated in the Delhi South Field next to Denbury Resource’s (NYSE: DNR) recently acquired Delhi Field.

These hands-off developments could add incremental value to the company’s stock, while they do not require any heavy capital investments to develop. If the Galveston Bay property provides the main value behind the stock, these assets are simply a kicker that could pay off handsomely over the coming years as its partners develop the fields.

Insider Ownership and Solid Financing

Strategic American Oil’s Chairman and CEO Jeremy Driver has purchased more than 50.2 million shares of restricted stock in cash or cash equivalent transactions. With his combined 18.66% ownership stake in the company, the seasoned executive has tremendous “skin in the game” that aligns his interests with those of shareholders. Meanwhile, the former CEO has purchased shares on the open market, which is a very bullish signal to investors.

And finally, the company has plenty of capital available without having to go to the market and dilute its stock. With only $800,000 of its $9 million line of credit drawn, the company has cash available that is collateralized against its oil and gas properties. But even if it does eventually require funding, investors can be assured that deals will be struck on good terms given the CEO’s ownership stake.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Strategic American Oil has several near-term catalysts in the form of its drilling projects, while it appears to be significantly undervalued based on its Galveston Bay properties and fields alone. With plans to eventually up-list to a higher exchange and perhaps even offer a dividend, this stock is one that investors should consider getting involved with sooner than later.

iMetrik M2M Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: IMEK), an end-to-end provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) solutions for a variety of industries, operating in the same space as companies like Numerex Corp. (Nasdaq: NMRX) and Sierra Wireless Inc. (Nasdaq: SWIR), recently partnered with Metropolitan Industries to provide an all-wireless, web-based system to monitor its equipment.

iMetrikM2M Wireless Monitoring Solution Chosen by America’s #1 Sump Pump Manufacturer, Metropolitan Industries.

Metropolitan Industries Inc,. the leading sump pump manufacturer in the US, has selected iMetrik M2M’s all-wireless, web-based system to monitor its equipment and offer real-time preventive measures to keep their product offering ahead of the pack.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Oct 11, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — iMetrik M2M IMEK  ( http://www.imetrikm2m.com) – is proud to announce that after months of development, and following a successful demonstration of the system at Metropolitan’s head offices in Chicago, Metropolitan (http://www.metropolitanind.com) has chosen iMetrik M2M to monitor all sump pumps it sells in the US. This represents hundreds of thousands of installations a year, sold through Metropolitan’s network of leading plumbing contractors.

With the iMetrik M2M system, Metropolitan and its distributors will receive notice in real time of any change in the state of the equipment, from a low power back-up battery to loss of power from the grid, to a change in water levels. A small gateway device collects the data from even smaller wireless sensors, and then itself wirelessly transmits the location and nature of the problem to the Internet, which in turn provides instant notification to end-users’s computers and smart phones. Service personnel can then be dispatched with the proper tools and replacement parts saving time and money. Insurance companies welcome the preventive aspect and most would be prepared to offer a reduction in home owners premiums as flooding is the greatest cause of loss for insurance companies in the home market.

John R. Kochan, Jr., CEO of Metropolitan Industries stated: “iMetrik M2M’s system will allow us and our dealers to offer a service “heads-and-shoulders” above the competition. Not only will we know in real time of any variation in the service of our equipment, allowing us to continuously improve our product, but our dealers will also be able to service the equipment before the home owner even realizes that there is a possibility of malfunction. Our dealers can count on unparalleled customer retention through this innovative preventive service offering”.

Medhat Mahmoud, VP Technology and Strategy of iMetrik M2M, stated: “Preventing flooding is a critical issue for home-owners and they’re placing a great deal of trust in the product they choose to protect them. Metropolitan takes that trust very seriously, as demonstrated by their decision to constantly monitor their product in order to prevent any possible malfunction. Metropolitan’s choice to partner with iMetrik M2M for this need is a validation of all the careful decision making and hard work that we put into building our next-generation M2M technology platform.”

Mission Statement

iMetrik M2M is a global solution provider of wireless services designed to control and manage the access and use of virtually any asset from “anywhere-to-anywhere” in the world. This is the world of Machine-to-Machine or M2M, the Internet of Things. The iMetrik M2M Platform moves information and commands from the source directly to the desktop, helping develop new service offerings, enabling real-time control over assets and open up new markets.

Forward Looking Statements:

The matters discussed herein, as well as in future oral and written statements by management of iMetrik M2M Solutions Inc. are forward-looking statements, and are based on current management expectations that involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements.

Key Highlights

• Restructured Business. Debt Resolve recently restructured its business and developed the strongest prospective client pipeline in its history.
• Strong Patent Protection. Debt Resolve has acquired strong patent protection for its online debt settlement technologies.
• Significantly Undervalued. Debt Resolve appears significantly undervalued given its potential growth.

Debt Resolve’s New Business Model

Debt Resolve recently restructured its business model and began focusing on technology companies that already have the collection clients they desire. And by targeting low-balance debt that would not be recovered via traditional collection methods, the company’s unique technologies help these clients, like credit card issuers, collection agencies, collection law firms, and buyers of defaulted debt, extend their capabilities. In the last six months we also focused on forming new partnerships or vendor relationships with significant industry providers, including Collect One, Regal Technologies, Collect Tech, e-Complish, eCollections, SunGard, PayNearMe and Uni-Collect 2000. All of our relationships are proven leaders in the payment solutions, software collections and analytics field. The partnerships allow us to directly market the Debt Resolve solution with the endorsement of our integrated partners to their existing client base. Our current partner client base exceeds 1,000 agencies, debt buyers and original issuers that are currently users of our partners’ products or services.

Based on a study of 25,000 accounts with 36-month old debt and a 0.4% online settlement rate, the firm offers a 6-to-1 return on investment on its solutions. And, this number increased to as high as 82-to-1 for original issuers once consumer fees were included. The result is a proven lowest cost channel for agencies, law firms and issuers to collect on their debts. The company has significant market potential within the $15 billion and growing industry.

Patent Portfolio Limits Any Competition

Technology companies often face a lot of competition due to low barriers to entry. Debt Resolve has eliminated this threat by patenting the double blind-bidding system for settling debt developed by its co-founders, James Burchetta and Charles Brofman. In December of 2001, the company was issued U.S. Patent No. 6,330,551 for “Computerized Dispute Resolution System and Method.”  This patent has been upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, making it a “perfected” patent. Debt Resolve, Inc. announced that on December 21, 2010, a valuation of the Company’s patent license was completed by Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Company, valuation specialists, profitability consultants and independent certified public accountants, with respect to the estimated fair value of the Company’s amended and restated limited license agreement covering certain U.S. patents that form the basis of the Company’s DebtResolve® online bidding system for the resolution and settlement of consumer debt. The estimated fair value of the license agreement is $13.3 million.

Four subsequent patents were also issued to form a five patent “cluster” underpinning the company’s license agreement. These patents are in effect until August of 2018 and cover all automated and online, double blind-bid systems that generate high-speed settlements by matching offers and demands in rounds. In total, this protection will ensure it faces no direct competition over the long-term.

Debt Resolve is Significantly Undervalued

Debt Resolve trades with a market capitalization of just $16.5 million, which represents just a fraction of its potential in the $15 billion U.S. debt collection industry. With a proven ability to generate a strong ROI on its solutions, the company’s technology has the potential to boost the collection performance of thousands of different players ranging from credit card issuers to other buyers of defaulted consumer debt.

The company should be able to breakeven on a cash flow basis in the near-term, with just 30-50 new agencies signing new license agreements. The firm has received significant support over the years with more than $2 million of direct board and management investment. This not only keeps dilution at a minimum, but indicates that the board and management have significant “skin in the game.”

Currently, the company has 17 properties with 9 projects actively joint ventured with companies like Agnico-Eagle (USA) Inc. and Ramelius Resources Ltd. Last year, the firm saw about $3.7 million in partner spending, while that number is expected to increase significantly in 2011 and beyond as its properties continue to show promise and move closer to commercialization.

A Proven Model that’s Being Implemented

Miranda Gold’s joint venture business model involves shifting capital costs to an external entity while retaining some rights to the property. Its partners can opt to earn a 70% interest by completing a bankable feasibility study or incurring $10 million in exploration costs at a rate of $1 million per year for 10 years, with a $400,000 first year obligation.

By implementing this strategy on seven of its properties, the company saw $275,000 in cash payments in 2009 and holds a portfolio of five junior mining stocks that made equity payments. Investors are hoping that these properties eventually produce NI 43-101 compliant reports that can help boost its balance sheet, while moving closer towards eventual commercialization.

Gold Properties Hold Significant Potential

Miranda Gold has a number of properties that have shown tremendous potential. Its Red Canyon, NV property has a big alteration system that assayed 2.95g Au/t of gold in 2010 when eight holes were drilled (assays for the 2011 drilling are pending); its Red Hill, NV property assayed 8.1g  Au/t of gold in 2006 and is now being drilled by a new partner; and its Angel Wing, NV property which is currently being drilled has surface samples that assay up to 92.5g Au/t in outcrop.

With gold prices trading near their all-time highs, investing in a junior exploration company could be very rewarding. Miranda Gold currently has drill rigs active on three projects, is awaiting assays from drilling on 2 projects and expects to see 2 additional projects drilled in the 4^th quarter of 2011. Its quality project in Nevada, and aggressive expansion into Colombia, has made it a world-class play on the yellow commodity.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Investors looking for a mature gold exploration company with many prospects and several existing joint venture partners should take a closer look at Miranda Gold Corp. (TSX.V: MAD) (OTCBB: MRDDF).

Explosive Play on Combustion Management

Profire Energy Inc. (OTCBB: PFIE) is a profitable and growing provider of oil and gas combustion management systems that help companies meet stringent safety regulations and boost their bottom line. With several majors using its products in Canada, the company’s move to the United States could provide investors with a significant catalyst for strong long-term earnings growth.

The company’s unique technologies can take readings and measurements remotely from the safety of one’s office, which helps reduce costs and improve safety for oil and gas field workers. These features translate into a tangible return on investment for producers, as well as safety from any one-time catastrophic event that could bring down most small independent producers.

The company also appears to be significantly undervalued. Despite reporting a 278% increase in revenues last quarter and equally strong gains in net income, the stock trades with a price-earnings multiple of just 17x its trailing 12-month earnings. Simply trading in-line with its peer multiples would mean a share price of closer to $1.80 per share – an 80% premium to its current price.

A Great (Offshore) Play on Higher Oil Prices

SeaDrill Limited Inc. (NYSE: SDRL) is an oil and gas company that operates a fleet of 60 drillships, jack-up rigs, semi-submersible rigs and tender rigs for shallow to ultra-deepwater drilling. With an ample quarterly dividend, the stock trades at a premium to its peers, but it has also managed to keep its debts under control and maintain strong fundamentals.

Unconventional Play on the Oil and Gas Sector

CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE: CRR) is a provider of ceramic proppant used within the oil and gas industry. Trading with a modest 27x earnings multiple and 0.79% dividend yield, the stock offers significant upside potential with 12 analysts projecting 27%+ growth in 2012. And if the shale plays continue to rapidly grow, the company could see enormous demand for its high-performance proppant.

Few Gullivers in the Land of Giants

Feeling a bit undersized, like Lemuel Gulliver strolling into Brobdingnag, some companies appear a bit intimidated and carry themselves with a certain amount of quietness while trying to capture market share from their large competitors.  Such is not the case with SMA Alliance as the confident Company sees what a small company with a solid business model and aggressive growth strategies can do.  Moreover, SMA is treading in land of giants with few competitors its own size, giving it a tremendous upside.  Its industry peers are comprised primarily of only a group of a large household names, including United Auto Group, AutoNation (NYSE:AN), Asbury Automotive Group (NYSE:ASB), Sonic Automotive (NYSE:SAH), Group 1 Automotive (NYSE:GPI), Lithia Motors, CarMax and AutoTrader.com.  Smaller companies seem to not last long in this industry as they are targets of acquisition by their larger counterparts.

Recent press from the SMA Alliance, titled “SMAA Acquires USAutoplex to Challenge AutoTrader for Checkered Flag” displays the determined strides that SMA is making through the $7 million acquisition of USAutoPlex.com as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SMA Alliance. Built on SMA’s proprietary technology, USAutoplex.com has developed a strong online presence showcasing retail auto dealers’ inventory.  Validating its benefits, USAutoplex.com has been proven to increase dealers’ gross monthly sales by 30% and up to 70% for car dealers in major metropolitan areas.

From the acquisition, SMA Alliance management projects an immediate return of $24 million over the next 4 quarters and – with expansion into Canadian and European markets (slated to happen in the next 90 days) coupled with current revenue streams – anticipates revenue in excess of $100 million early in 2013.  AutoTrader.com, which estimates its 2011 revenues to top $1 billion, only generated roughly $25 million in its fifth year of operation and it took eight years for them to crack $100 million in annual sales.

Get a Hunter

The SMA Alliance team exemplifies the idea “If you want to hunt elephants, get guides who have hunted elephants before.”  More than 70 percent of the SMA sales force is comprised of former general managers of current SMA Alliance clients.  Clearly, considering auto retailer’s general managers typically knock down around $220,000 annually in salary, those GM’s must see a significant opportunity with what SMA has to offer in revolutionizing the industry and have brought their expertise to help build the team.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

Even with pundits spewing rhetoric about struggling car makers, the sales industry is doing quite well.  Autotrader.com has maintained approximately a 50 percent compounded growth rate since inception and amazingly expects 2011 to basically maintain that rate. Sonic Automotive reported results at the end of July showing earnings of $21.4 million for the quarter, compared to $8.4 million in the same quarter of 2010. Group 1 Automotive boosted its income nearly two-fold in the second quarter to $24.7 million from $12.8 million in the year prior quarter. Lithia Motors saw its last quarter revenues rise by 30 percent and raised guidance as shown in its latest report.

A closer look at SMA Alliance and its position in industry that tops $6 billion annually shows some very pertinent things.  The opportunity is there.  The management is there.  The technology is there.  The aggressive business model is there.  The company is producing revenues at an exponential pace and making acquisitions as it is simply one of those firms that are only content by moving forward and building value at a frantic pace.  Differing from its peers as a lead generator, not merely a lead provider, SMA Alliance is a company that could be garnering a great deal of attention in the near term.  Its one hurdle to liquidity is a final obstacle that is about the be cleared as the company is effecting  a 10 for 1 forward stock split; creating a more liquid market in which investors finally will get a chance to get hands on SMAA shares previously constrained in an envelope of a tiny 3.4 million share float.

By taking this approach, the company is able to offer green technology investors near-term commercialization prospects and a large existing market, instead of relying on subsidies or brand new markets. Ultimately, this means greater near-term earnings potential, more predictable results and the same high multiple associated with green technology companies.

Key Highlights

• Green Solutions for Hydrocarbon Industries. STWA is focused on improving hydrocarbon technologies instead of trying to create brand new markets, which should result in greater near-term market opportunity and more predictable results.
• University and Industry Partnerships. STWA has a partnership with Temple University and The Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI), a global industry association that lends credibility to its technology and facilitates early adopters for its technologies within the industry.
• Breakthrough Solution for a Huge Market. STWA has developed a breakthrough solution for the $55 billion pipeline industry that helps companies enhance their revenue capabilities, reduce their costs, and reduce any negative environment impacts.

A Breakthrough Solution for Pipelines

According to The Oil and Gas Pipelines Market Analysis report by Aarkstore Enterprise, global spending in 2010 on oil and gas pipelines totaled more than $55 billion and is poised to increase significantly over the next nine years. Growth in emerging markets like China is boosting demand, while the margin pressures on the industry are leading a charge to find more efficient transportation solutions.

STWA’s Applied Oil Technology (AOT™) enables faster throughput of crude oil by reducing its viscosity. This results in greater daily delivery capabilities, reduced costs per barrel and lower energy requirements. While this helps energy companies improve their bottom line, it also reduces the environmental costs, creating a win-win solution for the industry.

A Large and Ready Potential Market

The potential for this technology is enormous. STWA analysts estimate that for every 1% increase in throughput capacity for a 500,000 bbl/day pipeline, its operators would have the additional transport capacity of $182.5 million per year.* Meanwhile, the technology reduces the need for chemical additives, the amount of natural gas burned to reduce viscosity, and the amount of electricity needed.

Through its unique partnership with Temple University, the company benefits from independent academic research and credibility. Meanwhile, its relationship with PRCI has provided it with the attention of early adopters and a great pipeline for future deals when the technology is ready to be commercially implemented.

In September, the company received payment from PRCI for testing being conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Rocky Mountain Oilfield Testing Center (RMOTC) in Wyoming. The contract marks another important milestone in the firm’s timeline for bringing its revolutionary technology to market, and the agreement as a whole signals the industry’s broad support.

A Great Investment Opportunity

STWA represents a great investment opportunity in the green technology space. By focusing on improving existing hydrocarbon technologies, instead of brand new markets, investors have access to a larger and more predictable market. Meanwhile, its unique university partnerships and industry connections translate to a high-quality product ready for eager industry buyers.

Currently, the company trades with a market capitalization of just $23.7 million, which may indicate that it is significantly undervalued. Investors interested in learning more about this investment opportunity should take a look at the following resources:

*Based on oil price of $100/per bbl.

In the oil and natural gas industry, there is high demand for heat generation and control systems, since the product in pipelines and storage tanks must be kept sufficiently warm to ensure flow efficiency. These technologies include line-heaters, dehydrators, dewaterers, separators, treaters and others. Profire builds products and provides services to address these needs.

A Compelling Value Proposition

Small independent oil and gas producers have new oil or gas wells coming online everyday. Current practices involve employees going out, taking physical readings on the discharge, and manually lighting the valve. In addition to the risk of explosion and injury, these tasks take precious man-hours and can be very costly over the long-term.

Profire’s unique technologies can take these measurements remotely from the safety of one’s office, which can help reduce cost and improve safety. These features translate to a tangible return on investment for oil and gas producers, as well as safety from a one-time catastrophic event that could bring down most small independent producers.

Meeting Regulatory Demands

Regulatory demands for the oil and gas industry are always increasing, especially after the Deepwater Horizon disaster. These proposals include additional barriers within some offshore wells, more safeguards in blowout preventers, and better monitoring of unexpected pressure changes. Meanwhile, onshore wells and pipelines have also come under close regulatory scrutiny.

Profire’s technologies help ensure accurate measurements, provide instant alerts when problems arise, and shield employees from the hazards of on-site duties. The company’s products and services are designed to exceed existing safety standards and should therefore see heightened demand as regulators continue to tighten safety and efficiency standards in the industry.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Profire Energy is positioned to experience secular demand for its products from the increasing amount of safety and efficiency regulations in the industry. Meanwhile, the company’s products offer a tangible return on investment to oil and gas producers and its business has built a solid reputation in Western Canada. Combined, these factors should help continue to drive the firm’s explosive and profitable growth.

China’s Silver

Silver production across the planet has been seeing a recent shift in leaders to some degree over the past five years.  Peru has held its roll of king of global production for a number of years, but 2010 saw a changing of the guard as Mexico slid past Peru into the number one slot by producing 128.6 million ounces in comparison to Peru’s 116.1 million ounces.  Gaining ground, and holding the third position with 99.2 million ounces produced in 2010 is China, a country that often times goes overlooked for its prolific annual silver production.  Perhaps this is because China doesn’t have a single silver mine in the top 20 for the largest producers of silver while Peru and Mexico hold three of those spots out of the top seven.  Be that as it may, annual silver production in China has risen by 31.5 percent in four years from its 2006 total of 75.4 million ounces.

Silver production in China is certainly up, but so is demand.  Already seeing a 30 percent increase in demand as compared to 2010, Albanian Minerals President and CEO Sahit Muja recent stated that “Silver demand in China and India is set to rise 40 percent in 2012.”  China in particular has been seeing demand rising at a searing pace with net imports increasing four-fold to exceed 3,500 metric tonnes in 2010.

Proving a Project is Worth its Weight in Silver

Looking to add to China’s rise in production and capitalize on demand issues, Silver Dragon Resources Inc. has taken a step forward in validating its Dadi Silver Polymetallic project (for which Silver Dragon holds a 40% interest) located in Inner Mongolia, China, through the completion of a preliminary feasibility study in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

The economic analysis estimates that at a 40 g/t cut-off grade, the Dadi project will generate net cash flows over the seven-year project life of $207 million, of which $82 million will accrue to the Company. The report estimates an internal rate of return (IRR) of 175% and a net present value (NPV) of $142 million applying an 8% discount rate. The IRR is 153% and NPV is $55 million. These figures are based on mineral resources and not on mineral reserves. The economic analysis included was based on measured and indicated resources. Inferred resources were not included in the economic analysis.

Measured?  Inferred?  What’s the difference?

The economic analysis being based on measured and indicated does not leave a great deal to chance.  Mildly explained, “measured mineral resources” are the part of the mineral resource which allows for densities, physical characteristic, grade, mineral content, etc. to be estimated with a high degree of confidence.  An “indicated mineral resource” is that part of a Mineral Resource for which tonnage, densities, shape, grade, mineral content, etc. can be estimated with a reasonable level of confidence and is based on exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through acceptable techniques (i.e. drilling and trenching).  Inferred resources – while they indeed could be correct or even underestimated – are the portion of the Mineral Resource for which tonnage, grade and content are estimated with a lower level of confidence.  Although the geological evidence is present, verification has not occurred, hence the reserves are “inferred.”  Think of “measured mineral resources” as the “low-balling” of what minerals a mining company hopes to extract from the earth.  For obvious reasons, feasibility reports and economic analysis, which basically define whether or not a project is worth taking towards production or not, are based on information that can be discerned with the highest degree of confidence.  There can be little doubt that Silver Dragon has hit a home with their most recent report, propelling the company into the next tier of mining companies.

Mexivada Mining Corp. (TSX-V: MNV.V)(OTC.BB: MXVDF)(Frankfurt: M2Q.F) is pleased to report the startup of a core drilling program at its Golden Porcupine property at Timmins, Ontario, Canada. Golden Porcupine is situated in the +60,000,000 ounce Porcupine gold camp, south of the Delnite and Aunor gold mines and southwest of Goldcorp’s +17,000,000 oz. Dome Mine. Mexivada is using flow-through cash funds in Mexivada’s treasury to fund this drilling program.

Mexivada is targeting the finding of three types of gold deposit: 1) Pamour Open-Pit Style gold associated with felsic intrusive rocks and their hosts, similar to at the plus 4,500,000 ounce Pamour Mine in the eastern part of the Timmins camp, 2) Dome Mine – Delnite Mine style vein-style gold hosted in and disseminated adjacent to fault structures, and 3) Meliadne-Central Patricia-Pickle Crow style bulk mineable and structure-controlled gold in and near large banded iron formations. All of these are large ounce potential gold target styles.

Mexivada’s new program of NQ core drilling has begun on the property, along with mechanized trenching to expose additional rock outcrops. The first two drillholes are being sited on the “Big Bif” open pit style gold target area, where a very large gold target area was defined by ground magnetic and induced polarization surveys, showing coincident IP – Mag lows and elevated gold geochemical anomalies.

Subsequent drilling will then occur in 1) the “Gold Chlorite” target area, located along a north-northwest trending induced polarization chargeability high in the southeastern part of the property, near shafts and trenches from which high grade gold samples were reportedly taken by a previous explorer, and 2) the “PDFZ” target area in the northern part of the property occurs along confirmed segments of the regional Destor-Porcupine structural zone, including parallel fault-shear structures to the south. Induced polarization chargeability highs are present along segments of these structures, along with 3 small, coincident magnetic “low” areas. Ossian Gold Mines reportedly drilled 8 holes totaling 1894.5 metres in this target area in 1938-39.

Mexivada feels that the Golden Porcupine property holds good promise to hold gold deposits of the size and gold grade that would be attractive for possible future development. The Big BIF, PDFZ, and Gold Chlorite gold targets are interpreted overall to have good gold potential, in line with Mexivada’s model of searching for large deposits that would be attractive to major gold companies such as Goldcorp. Mexivada presently is negotiating with third parties for the acquisition of additional attractive gold properties in the Timmins region.

The Company’s President and CEO, Richard R. Redfern, M.Sc. and Certified Professional Geologist, a ‘qualified person’ for the purposes on National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Properties, has verified the information and evaluated the interpretations contained in this news release.

Key Highlights

• Positive Cash Flow. Osage reported free cash flow of nearly $3 million last quarter from its Colombian property and pipeline.
• Enormous Potential. Osage has acquired more than 10,000 acres of strategically-located property in Oklahoma that holds enormous potential.
• Significantly Undervalued. With a market capitalization of just $23 million, Osage appears significantly undervalued given its cash flow and potential.

Strong Backbone from Colombian Property

Osage Exploration and Development is a rare microcap oil and gas company with positive cash flows and promising prospects. Through a partnership with Pacific Rubiales Energy (TSE: PRE), the company produces approximately 550 barrels per day from its Guaduas Field and owns a stake in the Guaduas-La Dorada oil pipeline that has a tariff of about $1.705 per barrel and a capacity of 35,000 bpd.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the company generated revenues that increased 157% to $962,450 and net income that reached $2,768,120, or six cents per share. Meanwhile, the firm’s balance sheet showed a current ratio of 3.29 with more than $3.2 million in cash and cash equivalents. Finally, the company’s free cash flow jumped nearly $3 million during that quarter alone.

“Company Maker” Potential in Oklahoma

Osage Exploration and Development may have a strong backdrop in Colombia, but its real potential lies in Oklahoma. Well-known in the oil and gas sector for its large net pay, the state houses some of the most economic oil plays on the planet. The company has acquired numerous oil and gas leases in the region targeting the Mississippi formation.

Earlier this year, the company entered into an agreement with Slawson and USE to acquire 45% and 30%, respectively, or their 10,000 acre Nemaha Ridge property for $4,875,000. With these companies in place as operators, the firm could see production as early as next year. The economics of the region suggest that this production could be upwards of 16 million barrels.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Osage Exploration and Development Inc. (OTCBB: OEDV) currently trades with a market capitalization of just $23 million, which pales in comparison to its vast potential in Oklahoma. Meanwhile, the positive cash flows from its Colombian operations should help fund the development of these properties and curb any potential dilution for existing shareholders. As a result, this is one stock worth considering.

Key Highlights

• Near-term Revenue Drivers. OurPet’s Company launched new Cosmic Pet and Go Cat Go!!!® lines that included about 150 new SKUs, while its SmartScoop® was also recently re-launched.  Combined, these products are expected to contribute to an increase in net revenues and profit during the second half of 2011.
• Bottom-line Improvements. OurPet’s Company has implemented initiatives to control costs, while scaling its business for anticipated long-term growth.  The company’s new ERP system will also help keep its inventories lean and nimble, while it works to improve its bottom-line to unlock further shareholder value.
• Great Investment Opportunity. OurPet’s Company’s market capitalization is currently less than one time (1x) sales for the past 12 months.  Based on strong top line growth, improved margins and increased net income, the company is now poised to continue to grow and generate significant value for shareholders.

SmartScoop Outperforms the Competition

Launched in 2007, OurPet’s SmartScoop is a self-scooping litter box solution for cats that has numerous advantages over both traditional cat litter boxes and other automated litter boxes. The product is highly-rated relative to its competition and offers several advantages, including a 6-month supply of waste bags and filters, that give it an edge over others players in the industry.

With an estimated $80 million market for automated litter boxes, the product could bring significant revenues to the company’s top-line and bottom line results in the upcoming quarters.

CosmicPet Acquisition Brings New SKUs

Last year, OurPet’s Company acquired CosmicPet in a move that more than tripled their cat toys and accessories from a mere 50 SKUs to more than 150 SKUs today. The company is now well-positioned in the marketplace as one of the top two leaders focused on the medium price point with catnip toys. Meanwhile, the firm has a pipeline of 75 more SKUs, including trendsetting dog toys and other products.

Based on initial feedback from the introduction of the CosmicPet line, in July of this year, management is optimistic that these products will continue to be well received. These promising initial results should produce significant near-term revenues and long-term market share for the company’s products, as well as pave the way for the additional products coming in the pipeline.

Operational Improvements Boost Bottom Line

OurPet’s is also taking action to enhance its bottom line through operational improvements. For instance, the company’s new ERP system is expected reduce inventories as they bring in new products and thereby improve margins and performance.

With the company’s strategic investments in its infrastructure, management’s long-term goal is to grow at about 20-25% per year on the top-line and bring down 12% of profit before taxes. Looking forward, the company anticipates using its cash flow to pay down its debts related to litigation costs in the past, as well as support its operations and growth.

A Great Investment Opportunity

OurPet’s is a story of tremendous success in a growing, resilient industry. The company is now positioned to unlock significant value for shareholders as it benefits from solid net revenue growth, improved margins and higher profitability.

Growth initiatives pursued during recent years are now contributing to increased performance and further progress is anticipated. It is timely for investors to take a closer look at this unique investment opportunity.

Key Highlights

• Industry Changes Spark Catalysts. The oil industry is facing increasing pressure to improve employee safety, meet environmental standards and improve efficiency. Profire’s unique technologies meet all three demand and have already attracted a significant customer base.
• Significantly Undervalued Stock. Profire Energy trades at just over 16x its trailing 12-month EPS despite reporting profitable triple-digit year-over-year revenue growth last quarter and peers trading with a multiple closer to 30x.
• Small Stock with Big Potential. Profire Energy offers investors a safe, profitable company with significant potential when industry changes take full effect and more customers embrace its unique technologies to solve their problems.

Industry Changes Spark Catalysts

The oil industry is facing regulatory headwinds designed to improve worker safety and curb environmental impacts. From California to Texas, many states are in the process of designing and adopting new measures that could put new pressures on the industry. Simultaneously, the industry is under constant pressure to improve margins for owners and shareholders.

Profire Energy’s burner management systems are designed to improve worker safety, reduce environmental risks and dramatically improve margins for producers. Diligently designed to meet the strictest CSA and UL codes, the intuitively designed system enables workers to monitor oil and gas properties offsite via the Internet, reducing both costs and the potential for injury.

Profire Remains Significantly Undervalued

Profire Energy reported a 278% increase in its revenues and a swing to profitability last quarter, as its new facilities came online in the United States. Over the trailing 12-month period, the company generated earnings per share of $0.06 on revenues of over $8 million. This yields a price-earnings (P/E) ratio of around 16.5x, which many investors see as sharply undervaluing the stock.

Assuming a price-earnings to growth (PEG) ratio of 1.0 is a fair value, the company’s triple-digit growth rates could support a P/E ratio of closer to 30-40x. These figures suggest a fair valuation of between $1.80 and $2.40 per share, using the $0.06 per share trailing 12-month EPS figure. The company’s competitors, trading with multiples of around 30x, provide further evidence of this base valuation.

Undiscovered Safe Stock with Strong Potential

Profire Energy is a very rare opportunity, especially for a stock trading on the OTCBB. Unlike many of its peers on the exchange, the company is both highly-profitable and rapidly growing. Meanwhile, pending industry regulation and its recent entry into the U.S. market has created exponential growth opportunities for early-stage investors.

Barter Industry has Tremendous Potential

Bartering is a great  tool for companies that  aim to conserve cash  or are looking for new customers. Unfortunately, geographic limitations have held back the industry from its true potential for years. With more than 24,000 member businesses and 90 franchises throughout the United States, ITEX Corporation is  assisting its clients with its online Membership Trading Community platform.

According to the International Reciprocal Trade Association, more than 400,000 businesses transacted $12 billion in barter transactions around the world in 2009/10. The number could grow substantially as entrepreneurs and small businesses discover the tremendous value in bartering. And as the largest U.S. barter exchange, ITEX Corporation is well-positioned in the market.

Profitable Play Delivering Shareholder Value

Last quarter, ITEX Corporation generated revenues of $3.96 million and net income of $239,000, or $0.07 per share. With earnings of $0.23 per share last year, the company trades with a price-earnings multiple of about 16x. When you take into account the $5.66m tax asset on the balance sheet, a better metric is income before taxes which was $1.557 last year, generating earnings of $0.44 per share and a price-earnings multiple under 10x. and the Company recently won an 8-year legal battle which should lower legal expenses going forward helping increase  the bottom-line in the next fiscal year.

Meanwhile, the company’s balance sheet included $14.7 million in shareholders’ equity and more than $4.7 million in cash and equivalents. With a market capitalization of just $13.49 million, these figures suggest that the stock is significantly undervalued at its current levels. The company is working to improve its shareholder value through a 4.3% dividend (as of the date of this story) and share buyback program.

A Great Investment Opportunity

ITEX Corporation operates the largest barter exchange in the United States with a profitable business model and active programs designed to unlock shareholder value. As a result, this is one company that investors may want to consider for their portfolios.

Key Highlights

• Picking Up Steam – The geothermal power industry appears to be picking up steam after industry leader Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA) reported a record backlog and its largest ever order from New Zealand worth more than $130 million.
• Significantly Undervalued – The geothermal industry appears significantly undervalued due to a basic lack of investor understanding. For instance, companies like Nevada Geothermal Power Inc. (OTCBB: NGLPF, TSX-V:NGP) are trading with a valuation of less than $6/W installed.
• Now’s the Time to Buy – Given these two factors, investors may want to consider taking a stake in the geothermal power industry. Those looking for an industry leader may want to check out ORA, while those looking for a value play may want to see NGLPF.

Strong Interest Seen in Geothermal Worldwide

Last quarter, Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA) received the largest order in its 46-year history from New Zealand. The $130 million contract highlights the fact that geothermal energy is rapidly replacing other forms of conventional and even renewable energies. Similar evidence can be seen in a recent $410 million loan to build a 340-megawatt geothermal plant in Sumatra, Indonesia.

Geothermal energy is considered one of the most cost effective sources of power on the planet, with more than half of the total costs being for initial drilling. The typical breakeven point for a geothermal power plant in 2007 was approximately $0.054 per kWh, while the average cost of U.S. residential electricity was $0.12 per Kwh in 2009, leaving a healthy long-term profit margin.

Lack of Understanding Yields Cheap Valuations

Despite the growth and effectiveness of geothermal power, there are only five companies operating in the space that are publicly traded either in the United States or Canada, including Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA), Nevada Geothermal Power Inc. (OTCBB: NGLPF, TSX-V:NGP), Alterra Power Corp (CVE: AXY), U.S. Geothermal Inc. (AMEX: HTM) and Ram Power Corp (TSE: RPG).

Many of these stocks are significantly undervalued due to a lack of investor understanding, trading with almost no value given to their underground assets. Meanwhile, companies like Nevada Geothermal Power Inc. (OTCBB: NGLPF, TSX-V:NGP) are trading with a valuation of just $6/W installed, which is significantly less than the valuations seen in the solar and wind industry.

A Great Time to Invest in Tomorrow’s Energy Industry

With heightened interest in geothermal power and low valuations, investors may want to consider taking a stake in the industry. Those looking for a safe industry leader may want to check out Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA), while those looking for a deep value play that carries a little more risk may want to see Nevada Geothermal Power Inc. (OTCBB: NGLPF, TSX-V:NGP).

A Brief History of Profire Energy

Profire Energy has an extensive history that helps account for its success today. Here’s an excerpt from their website:

Since March of 2002, when Profire Combustion Inc. was conceived, we have had a vision of the Burner Industry and its future. We sought to provide a service as combustion experts that was unmatched by any of our counterparts. We feel we can claim great success in this endeavor.

Soon after Profire’s inception, we developed a control panel for the management of burners, a system we called the Profire 1100. This attained unparalleled success, quickly becoming the leading Burner Management System on the market. Annually, our sales climbed, our service department grew, and our company expanded. With our team of highly qualified personnel, we were able to stake our position in this rapidly growing market. Soon Profire Combustion expanded to a point where the prospects of going public became a reality, and after the acquisition of a public shell corporation, Profire Energy Inc. was born. This entity became the medium for furthering corporate growth. The company continued to grow with the economic boom, then sustained even further growth in the face of a recession.

Despite turmoil in the market, we began developing the new-generation 2100 BMS. As it approached its final certification, we became more aware of the void this cutting-edge technology would fill. We feel our sober business tactics and knowledge of the market have allowed us to carefully maneuver the rocky business landscape and emerge successful. But since our success depends on much more than our past, our vision remains firmly affixed on the future. Our research and development division is plumbing new depths, our sales and marketing division is reaching out both domestically and globally, and our corporate leaders are supporting growth both internally and through the possibility of acquisition.

Our future is bright!

Profire’s Strategy Moving Forward

Profire Energy’s strategy moving forward leverages its extensive history and expertise to generate significant value for shareholders. Here’s an excerpt from their website explaining it:

Profire Energy is the leader in Burner Management Systems and has been in the forefront of research and development in the burner industry for nearly a decade. During this time, Profire has acquired a substantial market share for the use of the Profire Burner Management System.

Widely known around the world, companies come to Profire for reliable and efficient systems and services. With a firm grasp on the Canadian oilfield market and soon to be launched campaign in the U.S. market, Profire’s growth strategy includes aligning itself with multiple distributors throughout the U.S. thus insuring the proper sales, installation and servicing of its product.

This corporation was founded on the principles of value, efficiency and safety. The Profire mission is to provide a dynamic and reliable product for the oil and gas sector.

As part of our corporate strategy includes the acquisition and effective management of corporations, who share similar philosophies, we are always looking for further technologies and opportunities for growth and development within the broader energy sector. We are particularly interested in renewable and clean energy technology.

Several Catalysts Drive Future Value

Diversified Global Holdings Group recently announced a number of recent developments that promise to drive strong future results. In mid-July, the company met with the Chamber of Commerce in Florida to unite it with the Novosibirsk Chamber of Commerce in Russia. The company believes that this could signify extensive revenue opportunities in both the United States and Russia.

Recently, the company also announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Xerxis Consulting LLC, signed a letter of intent with the Ukranian government to assist in the installation of a multi-million Euro solar farm. The costs are expected to be approximately 810 million euros and will employ Xerxis for a minimum of four years, creating significant revenue potential.

Other potential catalysts include the completion of a $50 million sports complex in Kazan, Russia expected to generate $5 million in net earnings, as well as its recent acquisition of a majority ownership stake in Miralab, a Russian online marketing firm. Combined, these developments are well-positioned to increase both short-term and long-term revenue and net income potential.

Increase Could Make Stock More Undervalued

Diversified Global trades with a price-earnings ratio of 8.4x its trailing 12-month earnings, while its top and bottom line growth rates are firmly in the double and even triple digits. Last quarter, the company reported revenues that increased 75.8% to $5,679,853, while its net income improved 256% to $196,230 with a share count that declined about 6.7% to 87,317,370.

Even if the company’s price-earnings to growth (PEG) ratio was discounted to 0.8, to reflect the increased risk of being an OTCQB-listed company operating in emerging markets, the stock should still be trading with an earnings multiple closer to 56x and a price per share of $2.80.  Currently, the company’s stock trades for just $0.50 per share.

Conclusions

Often times, stocks that appear cheap are that way for a reason, either because of deteriorating financials or external risk factors. However, Diversified Global appears to be an exception with its improving financial condition, diversified risk portfolio and strong pipeline of near-term and long-term catalysts. As a result, this is one company that emerging market investors may want to consider.

The mining industry is not just sprinkled with exploration companies that are years from bona fide production and revenues, it is flooded with them.  That is by no means to discount exploration through drilling programs that are proving strong metal reserves, but the fact is that most companies are years – and millions of dollars – away from production.  This important distinction emphasizes the significance of near-term revenues to further facilitate ongoing exploration projects.

Santa Fe Gold Corporation (OTCBB:SFEG) brings the complete package to the table as a junior explorer and producer with revenue already on the books. The company’s valuable and diversified properties, with significant reserves, are part of the portfolio, and the capacity for substantial expansion is only months away.  All of this from a company that is environmentally conscious about controlling pollution as a result of mining and milling operations currently trading around $1 per share.

Investment Highlights:

• Healthy Portfolio: Focused in New Mexico and Arizona, Santa Fe’s portfolio includes the Summit Mine (roughly 100,000 ounces of gold and 7.4 million ounces of silver reserves), Ortiz Gold Project (over 2 million ounces of gold indicated), Black Canyon Mica (a highly valuable material in the paint and cosmetic industries) and the Planet Property (micaceous iron oxide).  Santa Fe also owns and operates the Lordsburg Mill in New Mexico as well as Mica processing equipment in Arizona.
• In Production: Only about one in 1,000 junior miners make it from exploration to production.  Santa Fe is the exception to the rule as production began early this year with expansion on its Summit Mine to a commercial producer targeted by the end of 2011.  The number of Santa Fe employees, this past year, has been more than doubled to 54 as the transition is happening now.
• Low-Cost Production. Santa Fe runs a streamlined operation by processing its gold and silver through its wholly-owned Lordsburg Mill in New Mexico.  With process rates below $400 per ounce, the company has some of the lowest production costs in the industry.
• Environmentally-Friendly. The Lordsburg Mill was specifically designed to have a relatively small footprint of surface disturbance along with giving consideration to virtually every aspect of the environment.  Approximately 80 – 85% of all water used at the mill is recycled, no diesel fuel is stored on site, lab waste has a dedicated disposal tank, all reagents used in processing are similar to standard washing machine detergent and all electrical wiring is run underground to minimize any risk.

Quick Investment Highlights

• Revenues increased 36% last year to $8,033,926 due to improvements in its end markets and new facilities coming online in the United States.
• Net income increased 27% last year to $1,626,463 due to lower SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues and the resulting 30% jump in gross profit.
• Accounts receivable more than doubled last year to $2,294,780 in a sign of strength in its sales efforts and recent entry into the United States marketplace.
• Strong balance sheet with an 11x current ratio, $1,689,368 in cash and cash equivalents, and no long-term debt, as of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.
• Apparent undervaluation with a price-earnings (P/E) ratio of approximately 27x and a price-earnings to growth (PEG) ratio of approximately 0.75.

A Profitable and Growing Niche

Profire Energy has carved out a profitable and growing niche in the fragmented combustion management industry. With the ability to remotely analyze multiple wells from anywhere in the world, its Profire 2100 Combustion Management System reduces the manpower needed to visit well sites and decreases the likelihood of worker accidents and injury.

The company is also rapidly expanding its product lines with several new products due out in the coming quarters – one of which will be marketable by the third quarter of this year. Moreover, the firm’s geographical footprint has grown significantly, as it has entered into the United States market, to include some 15,000 to 20,000 new wells coming online each year.

A Great Investment Opportunity

With rising energy and commodity prices, investors would be wise to look into the oil and gas sector over the medium-term. Profire Energy remains a relatively undiscovered opportunity that capitalizes on this tremendous growth with a modest 27x price-earnings ratio and favorable financials. In fact, a PEG ratio of 1.0 would yield a share price of around $1.44 – a 44% premium to the current market price.

iMetrik M2M Launches Leading Cellular Gateway

In mid-July, iMetrik M2M announced the launch of its game-changing Cellular Gateway product to open up new possibilities in the machine-to-machine world. The WAN/PAN Gateway is a plug-and-play solution that enables remote asset monitoring from anywhere in the world. The Gateway is shipped pre-activated and provides automatic coverage in over 120 different countries.

With this network in place, customers can leverage the company’s end-to-end hardware and software platform to deploy an entirely wireless M2M solution in a single step. Alternatively, companies can also utilize partner companies’ technologies – such as the sensors from Monnit Corporation mentioned below – to access the same network from anywhere around the world.

Monnit Deal Enables Near-term Commercialization

Leveraging this Cellular Gateway, iMetrik M2M announced a partnership with Monnit Corporation to expand the reach of its low-cost wireless sensors and iMonnit web application. From temperature sensors to pressure sensors, Monnit’s wide array of sensors will now have access to iMetrik M2M’s global GSM network, enabling access from anywhere via any smartphone or computer.

The company expects the partnership to significantly speed up its market penetration by providing a solution that many customers have already been seeking. Meanwhile, investors are anticipating similar deals with other companies using remote sensors to create an immediate market for the company’s products.

iMetrik Could be Significantly Undervalued

With a market capitalization of $25 million, iMetrik M2M could be significantly undervalued given this near-term potential. Infonetics Research recently predicted that revenues from embedded M2M services would grow steadily at a 66% compounded annual growth rate, while the number of connections would grow from 87 million in 2009 to more than 428 million by 2014.

Other analysts like Strategy Analytics’ are even more bullish on the sector, projecting the M2M market will reach $57 billion by 2014. Meanwhile, there are many large companies entering the sector in a strong way – ranging from Ericsson to AT&T – signaling that valuations could move even higher if any kind of consolidation occurs within the sector.

Early-stage investors looking for a strong play on the M2M industry may want to take a closer look at iMetrik M2M Solutions Inc. (OTCBB: IMEK).

The Man at the Helm

Greg Waring joined the Public Media Works team roughly a half-year ago and brings with him more than twenty years of highly relevant experience and proven successes.  A former exec with McDonald’s Corporation (NYSE:MCD) and the heralded Redbox Automated Retail,  Waring now serves as President and Chief Operating Officer at Public Media Works.

Waring’s honed his industry skills as Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer – reporting directly to the CEO – at Redbox where he was responsible for developing the initial consumer communications, branding and promotions for Redbox. During his time there, Redbox boomed from a fledgling with only 100 locations to 4,500 locations and revenues of less than $3,000,000 to over $100,000,000 in 30 months.

Live and Learn…and Build a Better Mousetrap

Waring coming to Public Media Works could be likened to someone like Bill Gates decided to take the wheel at an upstart computer company.  Taking what he learned at Redbox and expanding upon it with new ideas and technologies, Public Media Works is set to redefine the industry standards.  Other than accepting payment, video rental kiosks really perform only a few functions:  they contain video selections, dispense the movie, and accept the returned movie.  Public Media’s “Spot” machines have improved all three of these functions.

For starters, Spot machines hold 1,400 selections, 115.38 percent more than the 650 contained in a Redbox kiosk.  Fully electronic inside, Spot dispenses the selection in 3-5 seconds; a blink of an eye compared to the 12-15 seconds of Redbox.  Another unique feature of the latest Spot machine is that it has two slots so multiple customers can be using the kiosk at the same time (one to return, one to rent).  Redbox only has one slot that performs both functions, which results in people having to wait in line to return a movie while another customer is making a selection.

Simply put, think of Redbox as a Sherman Tank; strong and reliable, but a bit antiquated.  Spot is the new version being faster, digital and offering more modern conveniences.

The Coinstar Model

When Jens Molbak thought-up the idea of Coinstar back in 1989, a logical sequence of events built the company into what it is today.  Starting with 4 machines in supermarkets in San Francisco in 1992, the company built itself into an industry monster with more than 19,000 coin-changing machines.  The expansion into the video kiosk market with Redbox was a natural progression, with roughly 30,000 Redbox locations today.

While it may seem that Redbox has the market cornered, nothing is further from the truth.  Presently, there are about 45,000 video kiosks in the public with experts calling capacity at approximately 80,000 locations.  That means there’s still nearly 50 percent of the market untapped.  Canada in particular offers a massive amount of potential as only a limited number of machines have penetrated the country.  Moreover, the general population is the ideal demographic.  Canada’s economy is not struggling like the United States which facilitates entertainment expenses in the household with a large portion of Canadians sitting at the upper portion of the financial bell curve; a perfect fit.  While roll-out of Spot machines will be ongoing in the U.S., Waring and team intend to turn their systematic growth strategies north of the U.S. border as well, putting them on a level playing field with any competitors.

The Future is Now

Claims that streaming video is the future of the rental business is not without merit.  But…industry experts site many reasons why streaming movies as the norm are still many years away, including the most basic aspect of ISP’s and broadband issues that are still years away from being updated to accommodate feasibility.  Even the most aggressive of estimates range from three to four years for developments with more realistic estimates stating that the age of streaming still being seven to eight years off in the distance.

Bringing the future to current times, Public Media Works is already anticipating the next decade when video kiosks could reach terminal velocity.  Plans are already in place to transition the kiosks into any number of other operations where customers will benefit from instant arrival of a desired product.  It may sound a bit futuristic, but so did the idea of video kiosks just a few years ago as well as the idea of dumping change into a machine to get dollar bills and just look at what Coinstar did with that idea.

Promising Technology Approaches Commercialization

In November of 2007, Mantra Venture Group acquired the rights to a chemical process for the electro-reduction of carbon dioxide (ERC). The technology reduces the impact of carbon dioxide on the environment by converting CO₂ into chemicals with a broad range of commercial applications, including a fuel for next generation fuel cells, using just a little bit of electricity.

Specifically, the technology processes captured CO₂ with water to produce materials like formic acid, formate salts, oxalic acid and methanol. Until recently, similar processes aimed at achieving these results were too inefficient for practical use. However, the company’s process not only reduces carbon dioxide, but also yields an additional revenue stream in chemical sales.

In October of 2008, the company completed its first ERC prototype reactor capable of processing one kilogram of CO₂ per day. Since then, it has entered into numerous joint venture agreements, including one with the world’s largest cement producer, to develop pilot projects and ultimately commercialize the technology in the near to medium term.

Significant Potential for Investors and Shareholders

With increasing CO₂ regulations, Mantra Venture Group’s ERC technology has a tremendous value to a wide array of industries. This value is compounded by the technology’s valuable by-products, including Sodium Formate and Formic Acid, which have an average market value of $1,500 per ton with more than 600,000 tons produced annually, while new product development i.e. green plastics offers significant market potential.

Currently, the company has partnerships with numerous parties, including Lafarge S.A. the largest cement producer in the world, as well as Kemira’s Chemsolutions division in which the company put out a press release. These facts serve as a key vote of investor confidence and testimonial to Mantras’ technology. These early partnerships, license agreements, equity and grants should help finance the company for the foreseeable future, while success in its pilot projects could generate significant media attention.

A Promising Investment Opportunity for the Near-term

Green technology investors looking for a unique play on carbon dioxide reduction technologies may want to consider Mantra Venture Group Inc. (OTCBB: MVTG) for their portfolios.

Yes, You Can Do It All Right Here

What Bizzingo seems to have figured out is four important things: first, that B2B people have another, private, life in social media; second, that non-business social media devotees like to see what’s going on with business product offerings; and third, that previous technology didn’t offer either group a way to simultaneously participate in their Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube accounts, among others.

The fourth thing Bizzingo has divined from these observations is that solving the problem could mean the aggregation of tremendous numbers of eyeballs at the Bizzingo platform, which in turn can translate into juicy ad revenues. With Bizzingo now trading in the 65-cent range and a market cap of only $47.68 million, the company could become an attractive early acquisition target.

Accordingly, what Bizzingo is rolling out is nothing less than a wooly mammoth of a B2B networking site expected to be fully deployed over the next month, with the addition of one-stop features for non-business users. Business users will not only be able to monitor all their social networking sites, but can pretty easily construct a website replete with payment platform, video, and B2B ad-sharing. Visitors will be able to browse businesses by category, though the main focus is in providing a B2B network.

There are many apps, including PayPal, a posting wall, SEO, visitor analytics and a blog – all either free or modestly priced. To kick things off, the company is offering free ‘charter membership’ to the first 25,000 businesses to come along.

Focus On B2B

While other social media sites are consumer-oriented, Bizzingo’s website is focused on helping businesses connect with each other in a social networking and marketing environment. “Zones” are used to connect businesses into complementary interest groups. According to the company, this strategy helps ensure that marketing time is spent more productively than in dealing with non-business consumers.

A Healthy Market

Bizzingo is an evolutionary development of consumer social networking sites and, if their success is any indication of Bizzingo’s potential, the company could do very well indeed, considering facts like how LinkedIn‘s IPO rocketed the first day to more than $122 per share, nearly triple its opening price, Facebook’s weekly U.S. traffic is bigger than Google’s, and Ford Explorer’s Facebook launch garnered more traffic than a Super Bowl ad.

Add to this what many technical analysts are seeing as a remarkable rise in recent BIZZ trading volume, and what we may have is a company actually worth buying and holding for a while.

Even If Pundits Are Wrong…

As gold soars north- already past $1600 per ounce- that steady climb evokes the usual investor fear known as The Wall of Worry. With this naturally come the forecasts of technical analysts who are only too happy to oblige the worriers with mathematical confirmation of their worst fears. But so far, in the past nine months, the dire predictions have failed to materialize, or were only matched by relatively minor corrections in gold prices.

Of course, that doesn’t mean there won’t be a major correction sometime soon- time will tell. But whether the pundits are right or wrong, a precious metals portfolio can only benefit by having companies in it which can extract the maximum in product from their holdings, or which can sell proprietary technology to other companies to do so.

More Bang For Each Buck

Catalyst Resource plays three ends of the mining game. They not only have efficient proprietary extraction systems but also operate major mining interests at their Beluga mining project in Alaska, along with a recovery laboratory in Downey, CA. The Southern California lab enables them to maximize extractions of platinum, gold, rhodium, and palladium from any mining source. In its first year, the California plant is expected to recover $12,000,000 worth of precious metals.

Company Extraction And Recovery Technologies

Catalyst Resource notes three proprietary technologies on its website. Two of these are under U.S. patent protection; one is held as a trade secret.

Catalyst’s patented systems include its Vorsana Tri-Phase Separator and Vorsana Gas Scrubber. These are very complex systems but, in general, the Separator operates on centrifugal force to separate solids, liquids, and gases in a single pass, making it far more efficient than many other separation systems. The Scrubber may be of particular economic value to other companies, as its function is to use density differentials between lighter, benign gases such as oxygen and nitrogen, and heavier, polluting gases to release the benign gases to the atmosphere and sequester polluting gases in a holding tank. The use of this technology can simplify meeting state and local air quality regulations for companies.

Catalyst’s other technology, protected only as a trade secret, “targets gold, platinum, palladium, and rhodium,” according to the company website, and “uses a series of precise actions and leaching… shown to recover up to 10,000% more metals in certain cases.”

This combination of active mining and recovery systems may make Catalyst a good addition to a metals portfolio, regardless of which way gold moves.

Intrinsic Value Could Approach $2.00+ per Share

According to its latest 10-Q filing with the SEC, Diversified Global reported $203,626,037 in shareholders’ equity, compared to a market capitalization of just $97,970,000. Most of these assets are in the form of land that is rapidly appreciating in emerging markets, but even subtracting land, equipment and goodwill, its remaining asset value is roughly $33,049,157.

In per share terms, these figures translate to $2.33 per share, including land, equipment and goodwill, and $0.38 per share without. The company’s stock currently trades for approximately $1.05 per share, which implies that it may trade at a significant 122% discount to its intrinsic value and have a meaningful amount of assets even after excluding land, equipment and goodwill.

Rapid Growth Justifies a Higher Multiple

Diversified Global also appears to be trading at a significant discount given its substantial top-line and bottom-line growth rates. Last quarter, the company reported top-line revenue growth of 307% and bottom-line net income growth of 256%. Even using a more sustainable 70% growth rate yields a price-earnings to growth (PEG) ratio of just 0.3, while most analysts agree that 1.0 represents a fair valuation.

Even if the PEG is discounted to 0.8, to reflect the increased risk of being an OTCBB-listed company operating in emerging markets, the stock should still be trading with an earnings multiple closer to 56x and a price per share of $2.80. These figures represent an even more significant discount of approximately 167%, with shares currently trading at just $1.05 a piece.

Improving Financials Drive Future Results

Often times, stocks that appear cheap are that way for a reason, either because of declining financials or external risk factors. However, Diversified Global appears to be an exception with its improving financial condition, diversified risk profile, and strong pipeline of opportunities in key emerging markets. In addition to top-line and bottom-line growth, the company reduced its share count last quarter by 6.7%.

As a result, Diversified Global Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: DGHG) may be one stock for emerging investors to consider for their portfolios. With strong growth, profitability, and potential moving forward, this stock is not only undervalued, but also very promising as a growth play for the coming quarters and years.

Tortoise And The Hare

Silver is often overlooked by investors, in preference to the glitz and glamour of gold. But using a 200-day prior benchmark, percentage gains on silver holdings have far outpaced gold. The chart below illustrates this phenomenon using the ETF proxies SLV (iShares) and GLD (SPDR Gold Shares).

As can be seen above, a $10,000 position in SLV taken in September 2010 would today be worth about $17,777, while a $10,000 position in GLD, taken at the same time, would now be worth only about $12,000. This consistent outperformance of silver over gold helps to make sense of Silver Dragon’s focus on the less glamorous metal.

70% Of The Pie

The Erbahuo mine is 70% owned by Silver Dragon through its subsidiary Chifeng Silver Dragon Resources & Technologies, Ltd. and is operated by Chifeng Silver’s partner Guangxi Hongteng Mining, Ltd. (GHM) as part of a five-year arrangement. Silver Dragon’s press release last week stated that GHM expects to derive about 160,000 ounces of silver from the Erbahuo mine by year-end, from roughly 30,000 to 40,000 tons of silver ore. At the September silver futures price of $39.76 per ounce, this would represent more than $6.36 million of production in less than a half-year, 70% of which would belong to Silver Dragon.

Analysts’ Bubble Concerns May Be Irrelevant

Though some precious metal market analysts worry that gold and silver may be topping out, there’s an important difference between refined metal holdings and equity holdings in a producing mine. While price downdrafts negatively affect commodity values, good quarterly reports can positively affect stock prices, leaving plenty of room for mining companies to report record profits and achieve stock gains.

At the same time, metal commodity naysayers are confronted by national and global realities which tend to support precious metal prices. Currently, there is spreading global infection of uncertainty over European economic stability, with the added temporary unease over the U.S. debt-ceiling impasse. And even if the U.S. debt ceiling is raised, investors will only conclude that the economy is in for more inflation. These factors have contributed and continue to contribute strongly to precious metal price gains.

In part of a research note quoted by MarketWatch, attributed to Anne-Laure Tremblay of BNP Paribas (EPA: FR:BNP), “Silver could outperform gold once more towards the end of summer, and we would expect the gold-silver ratio to start declining once more as a result,” Tremblay was quoted as saying.

International Stem Cell Corp (OTCBB: ISCO) specializes in manufacturing pluripotent human “partheno-genetic” stem cells that can be converted into any of the many specific types of cells that will be needed as regenerative medicine moves from the laboratory to the hospital or physician’s office.  ISCO’s cells have the same kind of ability to become any specific cell that might be needed for therapy as do the cells used by competitors like Geron Corporation (Nasdaq: GERN) and Advanced Cell Technology Inc. (OTCBB: ACTC). Unlike the cells used by these competitors, however, ISCO’s cells are not obtained from fertilized embryos that might otherwise mature into a human child. Instead, they are derived from un-fertilized human eggs that would otherwise be destroyed and have no capacity to become a human child. Thus, ISCO’s parthenogenetic stem cells have removed a major ethical barrier to the use of the most prolific class of stem cells available to science today. With its patent on using the parthenogenesis process to make the stem cells, the company plans to establish partnerships, collaborations and licensing agreements with larger pharmaceutical companies to eventually unlock significant shareholder value.

Internal Financing through Consumer Products

While International Stem Cell would otherwise burn approximately $7-8 million per year without any revenue contribution, it plans to ramp up its consumer products divisions that don’t require FDA approval. Management hopes that these products will help the company break even on a cash flow basis within the next 12-18 months, which means it will be able to finance its therapeutic development operations internally and reduce or eliminate its need for outside financing.

In December 2010, the company launched its skincare product line, which ended up being so successful that they had to take the product off of the market to replenish supplies. While second quarter results may be hurt by the delay in replenishing supplies, investors can look forward to additional revenues in the third quarter and beyond as it ramps up its production and marketing. In addition, ISCO’s “Lifeline Cell Technology” subsidiary recently reported a 35% quarterly increase in sales and also promises to contribute to revenues in the future.

Patents Yield Significant Long-term Potential

Management believes that International Stem Cell can eventually become a billion dollar company over the long term. While this may take some time, the company plans to grow internally from its skincare and research products divisions. The proceeds from these operations and the potential to use its patented technology as the basis for partnerships and collaborations with larger companies in the regenerative medicine space may soon make Stem Cell one of the few, if not the only, stem cell company to be financially independent while it goes through the process of obtaining FDA approval for its various therapeutic products.

However, the company’s biggest advantages are in its pivotal patent for making pluripotent stem cells through parthenogenesis and the intellectual capital of the scientific team that has created and is developing this technology. Those create the dual potential of creating the company’s own therapeutic products and also leveraging its revenue potential by licensing applications that it chooses not to develop as in-house products. Currently, very little of this value appears to be priced into its $75 million market capitalization.

A Great Investment Opportunity

With a pivotal industry patent delivering long-term potential and a highly-successful skincare product generating near-term revenues, International Stem Cell Corp (OTCBB: ISCO) offers investors a great opportunity to capitalize on one of the premier plays in the regenerative medicine field.

Miners’ Price Cycles

Miners’ share prices are often out of sync with the reality of what these companies are doing at the time. Perhaps only one in a thousand mining companies ever produces serious mineral output. Yet the share prices of the other 999 go up and down, sometimes dramatically. Part of this activity is a sympathy phenomenon resulting from a serious mineral strike or start of production in a nearby mine. Part of it can also arise from escalating metals prices.

But share prices of ‘real’ miners, like Santa Fe Gold, follow a pattern well-known to expert mining traders.

From Discovery To Cash Flow

The first leg up in a real mining stock results from the discovery hole implying highly concentrated riches belowground. But, investor enthusiasm begins to wane with the time and capital outlay required to continue the enterprise. The stock then dips sharply. But committed management, who know the value of the find, often pony up capital of their own and recruit other sources of investment. Gradually, they begin to see light at the end of that financial tunnel, word gets out, and the stock begins an almost inexorable rise, culminating in what is known as the company‘s production and cash flow part of the cycle. You can actually see these events of euphoria, disinterest, fresh euphoria, and cash flow on an SFEG chart as the company plows through project after project.

So Is It Time To Buy?

Well, there’s no crystal ball hardwired to this computer, but the company’s recent announcements about moving into a new production phase and the repetitive nature of the chart shown, do merit taking a close look at the possibility of a buy. With all the headroom of its traditional resistance level, a developing uptrend, and the reassuring lack of legroom down to traditional support, a buy might be indicated.

After all, Santa Fe is one of the few companies amid all the OTC hype that is really in the business of mining. As its Q1 report showed, the company had $2,894,007 in silver and gold revenues for Q1 2011, about 1100% of the $261,532 for the corresponding quarter in 2010. Those gains came from start-up of the Summit silver-gold mine located in southwestern New Mexico, according to company documents, a mine expected to reach commercial production later this year.

Looked at another way, the nine months ending in March 2011 saw company revenues jump 15-fold compared to the nine-month period ending in March 2010 ($4.1 million vs. $275,000).  Based on well-known knowledge of the life cycle of a mining stock, Santa Fe is set to hit the next leg of buying pressure.  This, coupled with the analysis of the stock chart, certainly positions SFEG as a chart that will hit the radar of the massive mining community as well as technical traders in the very near term.

Unique Products that Deliver High ROI

Profire Energy’s lead product, the Profire 2100 combustion management system, enables clients to remotely analyze multiple wells from anywhere in the world. In addition to reducing the manpower needed to visit wells every day, the system operates remotely to reduce the likelihood of worker injury and sends immediate alerts when  pipelines  go out to control emissions.  Profire continues to be commited to combustion research and development and plans to announce several new products in the coming quarters.  One of which will be marketable Q3 2011.

The system has already become widely popular in Western Canada, with sales to companies like Exxon Mobil, Shell, ConocoPhillips, Devon Energy, Petro-Canada, Encana and many others. Meanwhile, the system has also been sold and installed in various other countries around the world, including the United States, France, Italy, England, the Middle East, Australia, China and Brazil.

Enormous and Growing Target Markets

Profire Energy targets oil and gas companies ranging from Exxon Mobil to small “mom and pop” shops with its unique technologies. In a recent interview, management estimated that there were over a million active oil and gas wells in the United States and Canada, with an additional 15,000-20,000 new wells coming online each year, equating to an enormous potential market for its products.

After successfully proving and executing its business model in  Canada, the company is now expanding its sales efforts to include the United States and other markets. Recently, the firm purchased an office and warehouse space in Lindon, Utah, and plans to retain well-established supply companies to represent its products and market them to their existing customer base.

Profire Appears Significantly Undervalued

Profire Energy is a profitable company that trades with a price-earnings multiple of 25x its trailing 52-week earnings, with $1,689,386 in cash and no long-term debt. The figures compare favorably to an industry-wide price-earnings multiple of 36x, with an average debt-to-equity ratio of more than 25x, according to Oil & Gas Equipment & Services industry data from Yahoo! Finance.

Given the industry average price-earnings multiple, the company’s shares could be trading closer to $1.20 to $1.44 per share, which represents a 20% to 44% premium to the current market price. However, the company’s high margins, strong growth rates and lack of long-term debt could justify an above-market price earnings ratio, especially if it lists on a more popular exchange.

A Great Investment Opportunity

Profire Energy is a relatively undiscovered investment opportunity that capitalizes on the dramatic growth in the oil and gas industry. With its modest 25x price-earnings ratio and favorable financials, the company also appears significantly undervalued relatively to both its growth and peers. Meanwhile, its recent expansion into the United States should help further expand its growth rates.

Energy investors looking for a unique emerging play in the oil and gas industry may want to consider Profire Energy Inc. (OTCBB: PFIE) for their portfolios.

The Dynamics at Work in Conglomerates

There is an interesting dynamic at work in conglomerates. When markets are performing poorly, they can make cheap acquisitions and capitalize on economies of scale. Companies housed within a conglomerate often benefit from lower expenses by sharing costs, while partnerships between members can lead to other strategic advantages that they wouldn’t have being an independent company.

But, when markets are performing well, companies within conglomerates can often realize higher valuations as independent companies. For instance, a high-growth technology company housed within a primarily industrial conglomerate will often trade at a depressed price-earnings multiple. As a result, it may be better off independent and spun off from the parent.

Diversified Global Takes a New Approach

Diversified Global is leveraging the conglomerate structure to make cheap acquisitions and leverage economies of scale. But unlike many other conglomerates, it is making these acquisitions in high-growth sectors, both domestically and internationally. As a result, the company offers investors a unique opportunity to essentially own a diversified portfolio of high-growth companies around the world.

Since these companies are all realizing significant growth rates, the company does not experience the same problems faced by other conglomerates, but still benefits from all of the advantages. Meanwhile, the relatively undiscovered company is also rapidly growing and highly profitable. Last quarter, revenues increased 307% to $4.3 million, while its net income increased 255% to $141,104.

Targeting Numerous High-Growth Markets

Diversified Global is targeting numerous high-growth markets around the world, ranging from real estate to social media. Currently, the company generates the majority of its revenues from its construction operations, with projects in Kazan, Russia and a strong backlog of $56.8 million.

Recently, the company also announced its expansion into Russia’s social media and online advertising sector with its acquisition of a majority ownership stake in Miralab. According to FINAM, a leading Russian brokerage firm, the internet technology market in the country is expected to grow between 400% and 800% over the next five years, exceeding $100 billion in total revenues.

A Unique Investment Opportunity

Diversified Global represents a unique investment opportunity for many reasons. With its strong growth rates and profitability, the company stands apart from many other stocks traded on the OTCQB exchange. Meanwhile, its focus on the conglomerate structure couldn’t come at a better time, giving it the ability to acquire high-growth companies and immediately realize synergies and economies of scale.

Combined, these factors make Diversified Global Holdings Group Inc. (OTCQB: DGHG) a stock worth considering for investors seeking diversified high growth rates.

Catalyst Resource Inc. (OTCQB: CATA) is a precious metals recovery and technologies company utilizing three proprietary extraction technologies to exploit a number of opportunities. Through an exclusive agreement with Rerun Recovery Inc., the company will utilize the firm’s technologies to develop two of its mines in Alaska and Oregon and will be entitled to 70% of the net profits generated.

The Beluga Alaska mine is a 160 acre property – with an option to purchase an additional 46,080 acres –   located 60 miles from Anchorage, Alaska. With a solid infrastructure for mining activity and strong prospects, the company’s initial results have tested positive for significantly higher quantities of rhodium, palladium and gold than usual. Meanwhile, the second mine is located near Granite, Grant County, Oregon.

Breakthrough Technology Enhances Recovery

Originally developed by renowned green technology inventor Wilmot McClutchen, owner of Vorsana, Catalyst Resource will utilize breakthrough technologies designed to dramatically enhance mineral recovery rates. According to a recent press release, the proprietary recovery system could increase recovery rates up to 10,000% more than traditional methods.

At the heart of the portfolio, the Vorsana Tri-Phase Separator is an inexpensive and easily scalable mechanical device that separates solids from liquids without the use of heat, chemicals or dead-end filters. The technology is based on radial counterflow principals, which involve the use of mechanically-induced vortices to separate lighter fractions of fluids or gases from heavier ones.

Using the same basic principles, the Vorsana Gas Scrubber provides continuous separation of gaseous components emitted from chemical leach tanks and other precious metal processes that emit toxic or environmentally-sensitive gases.

With these two technologies combined, the company’s mines under development will be far more environmentally-friendly and remarkably cost-effective to operate than traditional mines.

Joint Venture and Licensing Potential Ahead

Under the terms of its agreement with Rerun Recovery, Catalyst Resource also has the ability to form additional joint ventures in conjunction with Rerun Recovery and license the technologies. According to a recent press release, “the company intends to form several joint ventures with other mine properties and start to license out its patented separation process to other mining, processing, recovery and refining operations around the world.”

Joint ventures that involve other companies taking on the majority of the development costs could result in significantly higher-margin revenues and bottom-line results moving forward. As a result, Catalyst Resource Inc. (OTCQB: CATA) is one emerging opportunity that energy and mining investors may want to consider moving forward.

“Gearing up for full production” is not a phrase that is often used with junior exploration companies.  It is a phrase typically reserved for majors opening a new mine, but in the case of Santa Fe Gold Corporation (OTCBB: SFEG), it was the headline of a recent press release.  The key words in that phrase are “full production” and should not be glanced past as they are merely the next stage for this already producing silver and gold miner.  This, again, is another rarity as most juniors are only engaged in drilling and exploring while still years – and millions of dollars – away from actual production.  Santa Fe Gold did not get to this level by accident.  The highly experienced management team has a strong history of finance and exploration for publicly-traded companies.  Through a solid business model, the firm has built a diversified portfolio of prolific properties and owns the mill to process the materials.  As a result of its strategic moves, Santa Fe is already producing silver and gold ore at its Summit Mine in New Mexico and processing it a few miles away at its Lordsburg Mill.  Smelter contracts are intact and being exercised; a fact that completes the revenue cycle for Santa Fe.  Because of the efficiency of the negotiated contracts and localization of mills and mines, the Company has a cost basis for their gold production that rivals the lowest rates in the world.  All of this:  mines, mills, smelters, production and, most importantly, revenue and shares are still hovering around $1 each presenting a rare true value opportunity.  To learn more about Santa Fe Gold Corp., interested parties are encouraged to view the Company’s Investor Presentation at http://santafegoldcorp.com/home/investor_presentation.

Santa Fe Gold is a U.S.-based mining and exploration enterprise focused on acquiring and developing gold, silver, copper and industrial mineral properties. Santa Fe controls: (i) the Summit mine and Lordsburg mill in southwestern New Mexico, which began processing operations in 2010; (ii) a substantial land position near the Lordsburg mill, comprising the core of the Lordsburg Mining District; (iii) the Ortiz gold property in north-central New Mexico; (iv) the Black Canyon mica deposit and processing equipment near Phoenix, Arizona; and (v) a deposit of micaceous iron oxide (MIO) in western Arizona. Santa Fe Gold intends to build a portfolio of high-quality, diversified mineral assets with an emphasis on precious metals.

Powering up the Team

CryoPort just announced recruitment of Mark Engelhart as SVP and Chief Commercial Officer to sharpen the firm’s marketing regime. Engelhart brings with him more than 28 years’ experience in the pharmaceutical, clinical development, and life sciences industries, including work for Bayer Pharmaceuticals, Abbott Labs, Covance, and Quest Diagnostics. The company website says that his work has covered a variety of commercial, product development, and general management roles.

Cindy Gick is the other addition, as VP Client Care and Development.  Gick’s focus is to be on the company’s new initiative to establish 24×7 contact centers for customers worldwide. She arrives with more than 15 years of experience as a customer service executive and consultant and a was a principal of CG Consulting Services, partnering with firms like Allergan, Countrywide, Angels Baseball, and Taco Bell Corporation to develop strategic plans, build strong customer relationships, and high customer satisfaction. Gick had also been a director of call center technology for Viking Office Products.

Further solidifying the team are the additions of Tony Goffe and Damon Baca as Senior Directors of Sales. Tony Goffe was previously a training supervisor and strategic account sales manager for United Parcel Service in Seattle where his medical and life science clients were complemented by his prior experience in product development and management with biotechnology and life science companies, including Monsanto, Sepracor, and CellPro.

Damon Baca has more than 10 years of international sales and sales management experience.  Most recently he was a global sales executive and supply chain specialist with FedEx Corporation in Sweden where his clients included AstraZeneca PLC, one of the world’s largest biopharmaceutical companies. Mr. Baca will be based in CryoPort’s San Diego headquarters.

Competitive Differences

Except for a handful of expensive boutique shippers specializing in ‘cold-chain’ shipping, CryoPort faces little serious competition. It’s a tough area of technology with very high-value goods often at stake. Most of their competitors use dry ice as a coolant, though one or two employ liquid nitrogen (as does CryoPort). One company literally ships entire freezers, which generally limits its service to ground shipment due to shipping weight costs.

Competitors using dry ice to ship biologicals on a journey of more than a day or two, as is often the case with overseas transit, requires constant temperature monitoring and frequent repacking with dry ice. This often results in customer uncertainty as to whether low temperature was actually maintained. A cold-chain failure at any point can materially affect test results or drug efficacy. CryoPort’s patented technology provides constant freezing temperature lower than -150 C for 10 or more days without nitrogen replenishment. United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS), which only guarantees a temperature of 6 degrees C using its current system of dry ice or gel packs, is currently in negotiations with CryoPort.

Moreover, CryoPort’s overall shipping system, besides saving the customer from having to pack drugs or samples in dry ice, is already seamlessly integrated with major global shippers DHL and FedEx (NYSE: FDX). A call or internet order results in delivery of a CryoPort LN₂ shipping container directly to the customer, who places the drug or sample inside and shortly hands the box off to DHL or FedEx. The container and inner box are later returned to CryoPort for cleaning and refurbishing. This gives CryoPort a major competitive edge over others. A ’data logger’ can also be inserted for customer records.

Increasing Importance of Cold Chain Shipping

Events like last year’s Eyiafjallajökull volcano eruption in Iceland, and the resultant stranding of many dry ice shippers’ parcels due to flight groundings, highlight the importance of CryoPort’s advanced technology. While others had to scramble to find and pack dry dry ice on their shipments, CryoPort and its customers had the luxury of being able to simply wait it out.

In developing regions, notably Eastern Europe, India, and much of Africa, there’s a critical two-way need for the cold chain. As noted in a PBS Need To Know program aired June 10 (“Clinical Drug Studies”), U.S. drug company trial locations have increasingly moved overseas. For accuracy’s sake, biological samples returning stateside most often require cold chain technology like CryoPort’s. As well, many life-saving drugs enroute to foreign destinations require this technology to maintain efficacy.

By The Numbers

The company release reported $2,894,007 in silver and gold revenues for Q1 2011, up about 1100% from the $261,532 for the corresponding quarter in 2010. The steep gains “reflect the start-up of the Summit silver-gold mine located in southwestern New Mexico,” the document explained, and added that the company expects the mine to reach commercial production sometime this year.

A longer view shows that for the nine months ended in March of this year, company revenues were more than $4.1 million, compared to just under $275,000 for the nine month period ending in March 2010, almost a 15-fold jump.

Real Gold Mines

Perhaps more interesting is the general business nature of Santa Fe Gold, as compared to many other publicly listed mining ventures. The company seems evidently and truly engaged in the business of gold and silver mining, rather than just ‘exploring’ or ‘very close’ to becoming profitable, as is often the case with other companies.  According to its website, the company has actively pursued and obtained lucrative smelter contracts in the U.S. and Germany as well.

Santa Fe Gold’s holdings include the active Summit mine and Lordsburg mill in southwestern New Mexico, which began processing operations in 2010; a large land holding near Lordsburg; the Ortiz gold property in north-central New Mexico; the Black Canyon mica deposit with processing equipment near Phoenix, AZ; and rights to a deposit of micaceous iron oxide (MIO) in western Arizona. MIO has high value as a paint additive and corrosion-fighting material. Company documents note that its Lordsburg mill is the only mill of its kind inside a 100 mile radius and has substantial excess capacity, an economically important feature.

Processing at the Lordsburg location (‘Banner Mill’) is accomplished through conventional crushing, grinding, and flotation at a planned rate of 400 tons per day. With the addition of another ball mill, capacity could be expanded to 800 to 1,000 tons per day. Water and power are more than adequate near the site.  Equally important, the amenities are intact. A former operating mine and processing facility, the mill has excellent access to infrastructure and labor. Power is  provided by the Public Service Company of New Mexico via a newly upgraded 2,000 kV power line.

‘Another Milestone’

“The record revenues of $2.9 million and net income per share of $0.04 for the quarter mark another milestone in Santa Fe’s progress towards becoming a significant precious metals producer,” commented company president and CEO Dr. Pierce Carson. “Further substantial increases in sales volumes are expected as production from our Summit silver-gold mine ramps up from the current rate of 100-150 tons per day to full production of 400 tons per day.”

Carson also said that Santa Fe Gold is engaged in seeking additional mining assets and is busy setting up to begin mechanized mining of the Summit vein deposit by late this year in order “to take advantage of the current price environment,” referring to the present markets for gold and silver.

A recent report on the Summit property from company-retained geological engineers Chapman, Wood and Griswold, Inc. (CWG), rated the mine’s cutoff grade at 0.16 gold-equivalent ounces per ton and the in-place ‘probable reserve’ for its main footwall zone as 618,070 tons grading 0.143 ounces of gold per ton and 10.78 ounces of silver per ton. At the expected rate of production, according to Santa Fe Gold’s website, this would yield a mine life of about five years. The company notes also that the CWG report asserts that the mine lifespan could be extended an additional four to five years by mining peripheral areas and mineralized portions in the hanging wall.

The company, using prices heavily discounted from precious metals’ spot rates, said that CWG estimated Summit revenues over the five years would total roughly $144 million, with direct operating profits of $91 million. A higher silver-to-gold ratio is found in footwall mineralization included in the reserve estimate, as compared to a higher gold-to-silver ratio in hanging wall mineralization. The hanging wall mineralization requires additional drilling to bring it into a resource category.

In a recent document, Santa Fe Gold said that the project is economically viable at metal prices of $600 and $10 per ounce, for gold and silver, respectively. At current prices, dramatic improvement occurs. At $1,400 and $23.33 per ounce, for gold and silver respectively, the revenues  on the Probable Reserve increase to $201 million and pre-tax operating profitsincrease to $149 million.. The total capital budget, almost all of which has already been spent, is estimated as $18.5 million and includes working capital through mid-2011. Operating costs are estimated as $84.50 per ton milled, or $364 opt gold equivalent.

About Littlefield Corporation

Littlefield Corporation, headquartered in Austin, Texas, is the largest public owner of charitable bingo halls in the United States. The Company, through its corporate subsidiaries, develops, owns and operates 39 halls in Texas, South Carolina, Alabama and Florida.

Silver Dragon Resources, Inc. (SDRG.OB) after becoming a publicly traded company in 2005, has begun its climb to generating revenues from mining and silver exploration in China. Silver Dragon Resources, one of only three Western companies permitted to do silver mining and exploration in China, will begin to take silver out of their Erbahuo operation in Northern China, which is close to Mongolia, 800k north of Beijing starting this July 2011. The Erbahuo site, which is slated to yield some 5 million silver, inferred ounces should initially generate approximately US$100,000.00 in net revenues per month marking the long road of work and building the infrastructure that has been the history of Silver Dragon Resources to date. “To have worked so long and through many challenges, it is a significant benchmark for us to have reached the point of finally generating substantial revenues for us and our shareholders,” states Alessandro Motta, CISSP Vice President, Investor Relations. At current market value of silver the estimated worth of the Erbahuo site alone is more than US$ 190,000,000.00 in revenues over the life of the mine.

The demand for silver and other precious metals is growing. This is exemplified in the trend as seen when States like Utah in the US has legalized gold and silver coins as currency. The law that just passed a few weeks ago in Utah is part of growing movement as seen in Minnesota, another US state that has taken a step closer to joining Utah in making gold and silver legal tender and North Carolina, Idaho, and at least nine other US States have similar bills drafted to put the metals back in circulation.

Better communications with webcasting

In deciding to have a webcast investor presentation, Littlefield has joined the ranks of large companies like Xerox (NYSE: XRX) and Aetna (NYSE: AET), which have taken to webcasting as a preferred mode of reaching the investing public.

Advantages of web conferencing to you are some people grasp and retain information more easily by listening, and some by seeing. Having both show and tell reinforces the information for everyone. Estimates vary slightly, but it’s generally believed that about 60-65% of people are visual learners, though we all use a variety of learning styles.

Advantages of web conferencing to Littlefield and its shareholders are much the same: better communication is expected to translate into more trading volume, longer holds, and rising share prices.

A Microsoft article (Nasdaq: MSFT) on webcasting notes that “…marketers of all sizes and types are discovering they can save money and boost sales by engaging in collaborative web conferencing.” The article also mentions the importance of two-way communication (like Littlefield’s planned Q&A session) and the ability to archive the presentation for those who might have missed it.

Webcasting is a definite antidote to run-of-the-mill P&L statements, riveting the attention and helping the investor really understand what the company is about. Add to that a bit of Q&A with a live audience and what you get is a useful, informative- and perhaps provocative- presentation.

Get to know Littlefield

President and CEO Jeffery Minch will comment on four key questions to help you learn more about this emerging and exciting company:

• What the company is trying to accomplish in the $3 billion bingo industry;
• What its ‘roll up’ strategy is to unlock shareholder value;
• Why its shares are trading at a significant discount to future value; and
• Where the company is headed, near-term and long-term.

Interested parties are encouraged to join the webcast to learn more about Littlefield Corporation.

Nevada Geothermal Power Inc. (OTCBB: NGLPF) (NGP) is a geothermal power producer that operates one 49.5 MW geothermal plant in Nevada and has several others in various stages of development. With its renewable characteristics, strong safety record, and compelling economics, geothermal power is rapidly becoming a preferred source of energy around the world, and the company is well positioned to profit.

Now: Record Revenues and Output Reported in Q3

NGP recently announced record revenues and output during its fiscal third quarter. Power production averaged 47 MW (gross) and 37 MW (net), resulting in revenues that increased 110% year-over-year to $6.3 million. Meanwhile, the firm is continuing with a wellfield testing and stimulation program that could result in improved plant output in the near future.

Looking ahead, the company is continuing to develop its pipeline of geothermal properties, as well as Blue Mountain, focusing on the joint venture at Crump Geyser with Ormat and on finalizing the acquisition of two new advanced-stage exploration projects in the Imperial Valley, Southern California.

Short-term: Numerous Catalysts Could Send Stock Higher

NGP has a number of near-term catalysts that could send the stock higher over the coming months. For instance, its joint venture with Ormat at the Crump Geyser is rapidly progressing and could double its capacity when completed. Meanwhile, the improvements to its existing power plant could help further improve capacity and increase revenues.

In the short-term, investors are also looking at the company’s recent acquisition of geothermal assets from Iceland America Energy Inc. as a potential growth catalyst. With its highly-productive, high-temperature geothermal resources, the Imperial Valley is a lucrative site for potential development and could generate significant shareholder value.

Long-term: Geothermal is the Preferred Source of Power

Unlike nuclear power’s dangerous risks or coal power’s dirty emissions, geothermal power offers the most cost-effective, reliable and environmentally friendly form of power generation on the planet. Harnessing the heat generated from the radioactive decay of minerals, volcanic activity and solar energy absorbed by the Earth’s surface provides some 44.2 TW of potential power.

Economically, the typical breakeven point for a geothermal power plant in 2009 was approximately $0.10/kWh, while the average cost of residential electricity was $0.12/kWh in 2009, which leaves a healthy long-term profit margin for producers. As a public company, NGP is well positioned to take on the large up-front costs to generate these stable long-term returns.

In the mining business, many junior miners struggle with the management and funding of single projects, much less keeping control and developing more than one project at a time.  Coastal Pacific Mining has “two irons in the fire” in different gold hotspots, but recent news shows that both are moving forward smoothly.

Going Where the Gold Is

In North America, there are two well-known and prolific gold bearing regions where majors and junior exploration companies are flourishing extracting the precious yellow metal from the earth.  One is Nevada in the United States, well documented for its “invisible gold” and huge open pit mines.  The other is Ontario, Canada, home to the Red Lake District as well as the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.  The Abitibi Greenstone Belt contains producing gold camps such as Kirkland Lake, Matachewan, Porcupine (Timmins) and the emerging West Porcupine Gold Mining Camp.

Coastal Pacific entered into an option agreement in October of 2010 to earn a 50 percent interest in the Hotstone Property, a five claim unit totaling approximately 120 hectares within Greenlaw Township, located southeast of Chapleau, Ontario.  Per the agreement, Coastal must issue one million shares and fund a total of $1.6 million, $100,000 payable to the optionor with the remainder to be contributed via exploration costs before the end of 2012.

Recently Coastal announced a payment of $50,000 to the optionor, which completes the cash component of the obligation.  The shares have also been issued, leaving the Company positioned to move forward with the next stages of development of the property.  Slated to begin in August or September of this year, the next stage will consist of Grid Line Surveying and Grid Cutting, IP Geophysical Survey, Geological and Geophysical Compilation, Mapping and Interpretation followed by an initial comprehensive Diamond Drilling program.

The Opposite End of the Spectrum

While land in Ontario is currently being mined and the location of some very large gold findings in the recent past which has caused miners of all shapes, including Coastal Pacific Mining, to flock to the area, the Company is also planting its feet in a less-explored area with strong potential.  Coastal’s Santa Rita property is comprised of 1200 hectares (2965 acres) within the Central Cordillera of the Peruvian Andes in rugged terrain at elevations that vary between 13,780 feet to 15,748 feet above sea level. Exploration in this area has been somewhat limited, but has yielded confirmation of both vein and replacement (manto) mineralization, hosted within the limestone-dominated Jumasha Formation, an area well-documented for robust mineral potential.

Coastal recently disclosed completion of a preliminary exploration program including a Real Time Kinematic (RTK) GPS Grid survey, mapping, soil and rock sampling.  A total of 262 rock samples were taken.  According to Dave Gibson, VP of Explorations for Coastal Pacific Mining,

“What we have seen on Humaspunco Mountain on the Santa Rita Program in central Peru, is a much larger mineralized Silver-Lead-Zinc system than we anticipated. We are very pleased by the initial results of the Phase I program as they lead us into a Phase II program to further delineate Silver veins and Manto horizons identified on Humaspunco Mountain.”

A phase two exploration program is scheduled to begin in June in preparation for National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the property.  Traditionally, this is an event that investors hone-in upon as the resource estimate can act as a catalyst for share propulsion.  For CPMCF, it will be a milestone event and a prescient moment for the direction of the company in the near to mid-term.  With shares trading near all-time lows, bargain hunters will more than likely be turning attention to this junior making strides towards proving the resources under their control.

At The Heart of Things

Toronto-based Silver Dragon, with global interests in multiple mining properties, has seven of these in China itself, all in the Erbaohuo Silver District of northern China (Inner Mongolia). That positioning not only offsets shipping costs, but naturally offers the likelihood of more favorable treatment by the Chinese government.

The company’s current Chinese mine locations include; Dadi, Laopandao Beihou, Erbahuo, Aobaotugonao, Yuanlinzi Beishuan, Shididonggou, and Zhuanxinhu. These Chinese holdings of Silver Dragon’s are a mix of collaborations with local companies, always a good strategic move for a global company.

According to Silver Dragon’s website, their Erbahuo property “…is scheduled to produce dore silver bars by the third quarter of 2011, which will be sold to smelters for further refining… yielding up to eight (8) tonnes of silver in the first year. Silver Dragon Resources will receive 30% of the net proceeds, before taxes.”  This would represent a significant milestone for the company, as they would become a production mining company with revenues.

The Rise of Silver

Global silver demand and prices tend to ride the coattails of gold. In tough or uncertain times, investors have historically migrated towards these precious metals. But unlike gold- whose principal use is in jewelry- silver has intrinsic value to industry.

According to a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) report, silver’s uses cover a wide range, including automotive catalytic converters, shoe linings (to reduce odor), photography, electronics, and chemical processes. “Of all the metals, pure silver has the whitest color, the highest optical reflectivity, and the highest thermal and electrical conductivity,” the USGS notes. It’s even used in medical applications for wound care and skin infections, owing to its antibacterial properties.

“The demand for silver in industrial applications continues to increase,” the USGS report goes on, “and includes use of silver in… batteries, brazing and soldering… in cell phone covers to reduce the spread of bacteria… electroplating, hardening bearings, inks, mirrors, solar cells, water purification, and wood treatment to resist mold. Silver [is] used for miniature antennas in Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFIDs) that were used in casino chips, freeway toll transponders, gasoline speed purchase devices, passports, and on packages to keep track of inventory shipments.”

China has an estimated in-the-ground (ITG) reserve of 43,000 metric tons of silver, compared to only 25,000 metric tons of ITG reserve estimated for the United States. This puts Silver Dragon in an excellent sell-side position as global economies grow.

The irony is that China, as the world’s third-largest silver producer behind Mexico and Peru, since 2007, remains a net importer of the metal to fuel its growing industry. Much of the silver consumed goes into photovoltaic panels, as well as jewelry, according to a May 2011 report issued by CPM Group, a commodities analysis firm.

The CPM Group subscription-only report, Silver Yearbook 2011, was cited by precious metals retailer Kitco as saying that China’s silver output is expected to rise in 2011 to 104.6 million ounces, from 102.7 million ounces in 2010, “driven mainly by production expansions at silver-producing base metal mines.”

CPM also estimated that China’s silver needs for fabrication rose 10.3% in 2010 to 153.3 million ounces, and it expects another 15.6% jump in 2011.

Meanwhile, silver speculators keep watching gold. LiveTradingNews recently said on its website, “the WGC [World Gold Council] said factors such as continued uncertainty over the US economy and the dollar, ongoing European sovereign debt concerns, global inflationary pressures and tensions in the Middle East and North Africa will continue to drive investment demand for gold.” This makes the near-term and medium-term prospects look good for Silver Dragon.  With valuable property in prolific areas in the silver-demand capital of the world, SDRG is poised to  ride the wave of China’s ever-burgeoning economy and industry.

EVs Benefit from Worldwide Subsidies

The electric vehicle industry may have been slow to start, but recent subsidies are helping push it towards a tipping point. By incentivizing citizens to switch to electric vehicles, countries are hoping to reduce carbon emissions and provide for a more sustainable future, as well as promote green technology and manufacturing industries.

In Europe, Ireland’s government wants to see 10% of vehicles running on electric power by 2020, and recently instituted a government scheme to deploy 1,500 electrical recharging stations to support the cause. Similarly, the U.K.’s government pledged 100 million pounds to support greener cars, and will subsidize buyers up to 25% or 5,000 pounds for EVs beginning earlier this year.

In Asia, Japan’s government subsidizes up to a third of the cost of an electric vehicle, while EVs are also exempt from taxes for three years. And in China, subsidy programs provide up to $15 billion worth of subsidies between now and 2020 to push EVs and hybrid electric vehicles on its streets. In fact, the country hopes to have 5 million EVs deployed by 2020.

Look Small for More Opportunities

While companies like Tesla Motors Inc. (TSLA) and A123 Systems Inc. (AONE) may be the larger players in the industry, investors may want to look towards smaller manufacturers for added growth. These lesser-known players often trade at lower multiples and remain under-the-radar of larger investors. As a result, they often provide more opportunity to profit for individual investors.

For example, Alpha Lujo (ALEV) was recently formed to take advantage of China’s lower costs and growing worldwide end markets. By utilizing existing car bodies from Chinese petrol-engine cars, the company can cost-effectively manufacture EVs and is working towards meeting important safety standards in Australia, the United States and Europe.

Trading with a market capitalization of just $2.48 million, Alpha Lujo could be significantly undervalued given its growth potential. In fact, the company’s patents on battery management, transmission reduction and other components also give it a proprietary advantage over the competition. Finally, its patented long-life silicon lead battery provides added range and power.

Conclusion

In the end, there is little doubt that the global electric vehicle industry is well-positioned for growth and Alpha Lujo (ALEV) is set to capitalize on it. With a marginal market capitalization and a large number of subsidies, the company appears to be significantly undervalued.

Inova Technology Inc. (OTCBB: INVA), an innovative technology company focused on IT solutions and RFID products, has seen its IT Services Division rapidly expand in recent months. After completing $1.4 million in projects during the first quarter of the year, the company has seen tremendous success despite the months being traditionally slow in the sales cycle.

Blue Chip Customers Provide Solid Base

With contracts to supply IT services to IBM and other blue chip companies, Inova Technology’s Desert Communications subsidiary provides “bread-and-butter” revenues that have been rapidly growing since 1994. The company offers solutions including hardware, software, support and service, as has been recognized as a significant technology partner by many organizations.

Currently, the company provides these IT services to a number of large customers, including the Fort Worth Independent School District, El Paso Independent School District, University of Texas and the City of El Paso. Meanwhile, its staff is certified by the likes of Cisco, Novell, Microsoft, and BICSI to offer unparalleled support for a wide variety of IT infrastructures.

New Contracts Drive Top-line Results

Inova Technology also recently announced in a press release that its revenues for the nine months ended January 2011 was up 32% compared to the same period a year ago. With a $1,293,572 cash position and a recent decision to pay down $600,000 in debt in February 2011, the company has seen its financial condition markedly improve on both the top and bottom line.

Meanwhile, the technology company has also seen new contracts continue to come in the door. On April 19^th, it was awarded a new $570,000 project for the Gallup McKinley school district in New Mexico that marked one of its first major moves outside of Texas. This expansion may pave the way for more diversified revenue streams and stronger backlogs to support future growth.

Growth Supports Development of RFID

Investors are also closely watching Inova Technology’s RFID division that runs through its subsidiary RighTag. With proprietary RFID scanners that offer more features and functionality than the competition, the company’s is uniquely positioned in one of the fastest growing trends in the world, with retailers like Wal-Mart beginning to require RFID solutions from suppliers.

The RFID division also has a number of blue chip customers that are a testament to the high quality of its solutions, including Honeywell, Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Department of Defense. While it may be the IT Services Division producing most of the revenues now, its financial support for the RFID growth could end up paying off handsomely in the near future.

Conclusions

With its strong top-line growth and improving bottom-line financial condition, investors may want to take a closer look at Inova Technology (OTCBB: INVA). Meanwhile, the company’s investment in RFID marks a prudent entry into one of the fastest growing technology markets in the world.

Alpha Lujo, Inc. (OTCBB: ALEV) is a development-stage Electric Vehicle (EV) company , which resulted from a reverse merger with E Global Marketing, Inc. (OTCBB: EGLO) and Alpha Lujo Electric Vehicle Pty Ltd. from Australia. The company has developed innovative electric vehicle technology that utilizes existing car bodies from Chinese petrol-engine cars.

Expanding EV Market

As the chart below showing U.S. hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) market expansion for the past decade illustrates, demand for HEVs and, by implication, all electric vehicles (EVs), has grown steadily since 1999, when only 17 units were sold nationwide. The mild 2008-2010 slump in sales coincides with the global economic meltdown and the surprise here is that sales remained as robust as they did. These are all good signs for Alpha Lujo’s pure electric lineup of three EV models.

Another friendly aspect of the data for Alpha Lujo is the steep climb in cumulative numbers of vehicles sold. It’s a basic dictum of the marketing world that as more people acquire a product, it leads to more people wanting the product. In addition, as HEV and EV batteries wear out, they’ll need replacement, positioning Alpha Lujo to sell its more environmentally friendly silicon batteries to a market already worried about the environmental consequences of using traditional lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries.

Targeting the Small

Alpha Lujo’s three EV models all feature a maximum range of about 72 miles. As it turns out, that’s a lot more range than most people need anyway. A 2009 National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) study (below) shows that only 5% of all vehicle trips were longer than 30 miles, with about 75% of all trips being 10 miles or less. By aiming at this broader market, the company is seeking to outflank competitors and capture a larger market share. Even among fleet vehicles (shown below as Work Vehicle Trips), nearly 60% of trips are only 10 miles or less, with only 9% longer than 30 miles, which opens yet another door for Alpha Lujo.

Government Winds Fill EV Sails and Sales

Alpha Lujo can also take heart from Monday’s announcement in China’s People’s Daily Online of the Chinese government’s offer of free EV test-drives for anybody who wants to take a spin.

“From now on, citizens can test drive China’s Pioneer electric car for free,” Minister of Science and Technology Wan Gang told attendees at an opening ceremony for the China (Shanghai) International Demonstration Test Drive Center of Electric Vehicles.

But the free test-drive covers not only the Pioneer EV but those from other companies as well (Alpha Lujo manufactures its vehicles in China). The government’s plan, according to People’s Daily Online, is “to collect user experience data in order to let the manufacturers realize market needs. (and to) enhance public awareness about electric vehicles and promote certain brands.”

In the U.S., government subsidies for purchase of HEVs and Evs range as high as $7500, a strong boost to EV carmakers.

Global Reach

The company has facilities in several countries, including the U.S. (New York corporate offices; Arizona distribution center), Australia (Melbourne), Spain, and China. This enables the company to dramatically cut shipping costs. Though not yet approved for sale in the U.S., the company has already completed European crash tests for one of its models, with the other two expected to be completed by the end of Q2 2011. The carmaker expects to log as many as 2,000 EV orders this year, with distribution channels in more than 11 countries.

Geothermal energy is thermal energy that originates from radioactive decay of minerals, volcanic activity and solar energy absorbed by the Earth’s surface. With approximately 10,715 MW of geothermal power online across 24 countries, many experts consider the energy source to be among the most cost-effective, reliable and environmentally-friendly.

In total, the Earth’s internal thermal energy flows to the surface at a rate of 44.2 TW and is replenished at a rate of 30 TW. These power rates are more than double the current amount of energy consumption worldwide from all primary sources; and, geothermal energy involves no fuel cost or commodity price risk with the highest base load power and capacity factors of any power source on the planet.

The Economics of Geothermal Energy

Geothermal energy is considered one of the most cost effective sources of power on the planet, with more than half of the costs being for initial drilling. The typical breakeven point for a geothermal power plant in 2007 was approximately $0.054 per kWh, while the average cost of U.S. residential electricity was $0.12 per Kwh in 2009, leaving a healthy long-term profit margin.

A typical well in Nevada can generate 4.5 MW at a cost of about $4 million to drill, or roughly $4.5-5 million per MW in total initial costs, with a 20% failure rate. As a result, the business is well-suited for public companies, able to raise the large amount of upfront capital and deliver a high long-term return on investment over time to shareholders.

A Look at the Companies in the Space

The largest public geothermal company is Ormat Technologies (NYSE: ORA), with a market capitalization of over $1 billion and projected revenues of between $395 and $410 million in 2011. With more than 300 MW under construction and development, the company is well-positioned within the sector and continues to add new land projects to its portfolio to support future growth.

Investors looking for an emerging play may want to consider Nevada Geothermal Power (OTCBB: NGLPF). With a strong management team and one 49.5 MW geothermal plant under its belt, the company is well-positioned to unlock value over the medium-term.  Meanwhile, the firm also has a joint venture with Ormat for a new power plant on the Crump Geyser that could nearly double its capacity.

Great Buy in Undervalued Sector

With the recent drop in the geothermal sector, many stocks appear to be significantly undervalued.  For instance, Nevada Geothermal’s current enterprise value currently stands at around $200 million, while its production is currently at 35-37  MW (net) or 46-48 MW (gross).  This means that the market is valuing the company at $6/W installed, which is significantly less than the valuations seen in solar and wind. A more typical valuation in the geothermal sector would represent the fact that geothermal plants are base load and can produce at 90% capacity. As a result, this low valuation of NGLPF’s assets put the company’s stock in the bargain bin for potential investors.

Enhanced Strength, Same Cost, Fully-Recycled

Axion International has developed eco-friendly structural building materials made from 100% recycled consumer and industrial plastics. Ranging from railroad crossties to standard boards, the company’s commercially-proven products are also more durable and have a substantially greater useful life than traditional products made from wood, steel and concrete, and are maintenance-free.

Developed through an R&D relationship with Rutgers University’s advanced polymer lab, the composite materials are exclusively manufactured via a patented process in the U.S. Meanwhile, the materials have already attracted several key customers both domestically and around the world in countries ranging from Canada to Morocco, including major contracts with the U.S. Government.

A Proven Technology Already being Commercialized

After spending years in development, Axion’s technology is now past the tipping point of commercialization. In 2009, the company sold its products for use in the construction of two bridges commissioned by the military at Fort Bragg. The bridges have proven capable of supporting loads in excess of 70 tons and now serve as a key proof-of-concept for its technology.

More recently, the company signed a milestone contract with a Class 1 Railroad – one of the largest in North America – for the purchase of its RSC railroad ties. The agreement calls for the purchase of a minimum of $5 million per year over the next three years. Meanwhile, the company also filled an opening order earlier this year with Alcoa Fastening Systems in Australia that could lead to significant revenues.

Looking Ahead to Multi-Billion Dollar Markets

Moving forward, Axion International has entered the next phase of its development by commencing a focused sales effort for its railroad ties and other recycled structural composite materials to railroads and other public and private sector buyers. Meanwhile, strategic engineering and sales relationships are also being established to generate further sales penetration in the marketplace.   The company recently deployed a CRM package and is building an active sales pipeline.

Just how big is the market? Major North American railroads purchase some 15-20 million crossties annually, making it a market worth about $600 million for Class I railroads alone. Meanwhile, the U.S. military spends about $20 billion annually on equipment and infrastructure as an impact of corrosion, which the company’s products can help prevent.

Ramping Up Sales and Unlocking Significant Value

By keeping their management staff extremely lean during the initial years of development, Axion has kept its expenses down and managed shareholders’ equity very well. For example, the company has pursued an outsourced manufacturing model that has both kept capital equipment costs down and given it the flexibility to maximize utilization capacity.

Now, the company plans to prudently ramp up its sales team, while also utilizing joint venture strategies to maximize profitability in a timely and efficient manner that preserves shareholder value. Meanwhile, the firm has also begun to look into several international markets, having already shipped products to Morocco, Canada, Australia and Mexico.

These sales efforts are centered around several key benefits to the customer. U.S. military contractors have confirmed that the company’s products provide significant upfront cost savings, as well as reduce long-term maintenance costs by reducing corrosion, rusting, etc. Meanwhile, the firm can engineer and manufacture highly specialized components and work closely to ensure customer satisfaction.

Conclusions

With a solid product that has been proven by some of the biggest players in the industry, Axion International (OTCBB: AXIH) is now well-positioned to unlock significant value for shareholders. Its proof-of-concept clients have provided it with valuable cost-savings data that will be used in conjunction with a ramped up sales effort to expand its presence in multi-billion dollar domestic and international markets.

As a result, this is one stock that investors should watch closely with its mere $30 million market capitalization!

Business models come in all shapes and forms, but a tried and true pathway to success is through corporate diversification. In and amongst itself, the strategy can be multi-layered depending on the structuring of the plan. For some companies, such as Inova Technology (OTCBB:INVA), combining a revenue-generating machine as one branch of business with an developmental acquisition in a burgeoning industry can be a recipe for success. Simply put, the established business supports the balance sheet while the acquisition is built-out with the anticipation that its revenue will one day meet and exceed the revenues of its elder.

Inova has the strategy firmly intact and is now putting time behind it as the plan unfolds into what could soon lead to rapid expansion. Inova’s foundation is based upon the successful network solutions business of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Desert Communications.

Desert is an industry leader with, amongst a host of others, business relations with IBM and Cisco. Tapping into one of the most desirable and profitable sectors of the industry, Desert Communications draws a large portion of its revenue from government-funded programs that deliver network solutions to our Nation’s education system. In a testament to the Desert Communication prowess, ten separate projects were recently completed in the first quarter of 2011 at different school districts; tallying over $1.4 million in revenue from those projects alone.

Complementing the completed work and setting the stage for the future, Desert currently has a backlog of work in the neighborhood of $20 million. With this sort of monetary positioning, the “foundation” side of Inova is certainly well-positioned.

While the Desert Communications subsidiary by itself would make the majority of OTC companies writhe with envy, the true breadth of Inova being undervalued lies in its second subsidiary, RighTag. RighTag was spawned out of a strategic acquisition of Trakkers in 2007 and demonstrates the aptitude of the Inova management with the bargain purchase of the company for less than $6 million. RighTag is focused on the RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) industry and gaining steam.

RFID is one of the fastest growing industries today as its functions are virtually endless. Anything that needs to be scanned, tracked, or carry information is now starting to be done through RFID technologies. An industry valued at $1.95 billion in the U.S. alone in 2005, estimates show a compounded annual growth rate still of nearly 20% with estimates for the industry to near $30 billion annually in the U.S. over the next four years. RFID benefits from all sectors that are flourishing, such as the convenience store sector; recently reported by SBWire to be an industry outpacing almost all others.

Smack dab in the middle of the industry explosion is Inova’s RighTag. The fact that RighTag now has experience behind it with formidable clients such as Gerber Coburn (one of the largest contact lens manufacturer in the U.S.), Honeywell, Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Department of Defense, leaves Inova in what can only be described as a completely unique position. These are not the sort of clients that a typical OTC company carries in their portfolio…but Inova does.

The “roots to have strength and branches to bear fruit” strategy of Inova Technology has the company in a position that could soon spawn tremendous market attention. With shares trading only a few pennies above all-time lows and considering the connections and established relationships that Inova has between its two subsidiaries, a catalyst is just waiting to springboard the Company to new heights. With a market cap of a paltry $3 million and less than 58 million shares outstanding, the all-too-often-used term of “undervalued” seems applicable in this situation and a cause for investors to dig deep into performing due diligence.

Silver has been rising at a searing pace and even with the much publicized pull-back recently, investors will be looking at this as more of an opportunity than a threat to the long-term prospect of gold’s cousin. Demand in China is expected to remain strong in the future. In fact, a recent article in the Wall Street Journal states that “silver demand in China and India is set to rise 30 percent in 2011.” With National Instrument 43-101 reports showing that Silver Dragon is sitting on substantial silver (as well as other mineral) resources on their Chinese properties, the stage is set to watch this developmental miner unfold.

Supply versus Demand

Every investor has heard of the valuation of any product being based on the equation of supply versus demand and how it equates to the future. In 2009, the world silver output was 21,500 tons with a global supply of 27,000 tons. In 2010, India gobbled up approximately 2,800 tonnes of silver, but is expected to consume nearly twice as much in 2011, with projections set at 5,000 tonnes. China’s insatiable thirst for silver is primarily fueled by industrial sectors with the precious metal being used in the production of electronic products, jewelry and industrial productions (e.g. solar and medical products).

The Chinese jewelry industry is thriving with production in 2010 totaling a world-leading 31.2 million ounces of silver being used in jewelry production. On the whole, global silver jewelry production rose in excess of 5 percent in 2010 according to the 2011 World Silver Survey; representing a new five-year high.

With demand continuing to soar, silver miners and investors in the exploration companies should show little fear. This dip is likely to only be a technical correction, but even continued bearish sentiment cannot thwart strong profit margins as major silver companies report production costs ranging from $4 to $8 an ounce. Even if silver slipped back to $30 an ounce, it is still the type of production to price ratio that makes gold miners envious.

Silver Dragon: The Name is Appropriate

Silver Dragon has ongoing drilling and tunneling programs on several of its projects in China for which it has varying levels of ownership including the Exploration Unit of North China Nonferrous Geological Exploration Bureau, also known as Huaguan Industrial Corp. (“HIC”), and the Company hold equity interests of 60% and 40%, respectively, in Sino-Top, whose assets mainly consist of six exploration properties. Erbahuo, the seventh exploration property controlled by Sino-Top, is 70% beneficially owned by the Company and 30% by HIC.

Regarding the Company’s Laopandao Silver-Tin-Copper-Lead Polymetallic project in Inner Mongolia, Northern China, initial resource estimation of silver, lead and zinc has been carried out according to Chinese National Non-ferrous Metal Resource Estimation Standards. Estimates show 4,616,370 metric tonnes (“mt”) of ore with 318.2 mt (10.2 million oz.) silver, 10,239 mt copper, and 15,184.5 mt tin.

An initial NI 43-101 report on the Company’s Dadi Silver-Lead-Zinc Polymetallic project in Inner Mongolia, Northern China showed total resources for five mineralization zones totaling 12,270,000 tonnes of ore, containing 1021.4 tonnes (32.7 million oz.) of silver, 117,023 tonnes of lead and 199,348 tonnes of zinc. Further, an associated element, cadmium, was found in the polymetallic ores. The cadmium resource could be of significant industrial and economic value.

Focused solely on the silver resources and recognizing that the drilling on these two projects still is not completed, the totals from the estimates equate to nearly 43 million ounces of silver. Even at the higher end of production cost ($8/oz.) and silver prices figured at $30 per ounce (less than the most recent closing price of approximately $35/oz.), that’s a cool $946 million in price to production profit. Moreover, that value is only a portion of the resources of the two properties, based on silver content alone without regard for the other valuable minerals on hand and only two of the seven properties for which Silver Dragon has interests.

The Bottom Line

Developmental miners carry a speculation weight around their neck. It is the nature of the beast, but that weight is counterbalanced by due diligence that reveals true potential. For Silver Dragon, they are targeting a lucrative subset of the general mining industry with proven resources and centered in a country that is demonstrating outstanding demand. As a country, China is demonstrating exponential growth at virtually every level; and doing so at a pace that is outstripping all its international counterparts. As a result, Silver Dragon appears to be well-positioned with its business model to ride the wave of the Chinese economy and resource demands.

About Silver Dragon Resources Inc.

Technical and fundamental traders may seem to dwell on opposite sides of the track, but on many occasions, investing is a mix of the two disciplines with the investor tending to put more faith in one than the other; but rarely is one completely excluded from the decision process. When a company displays favorable qualities in both techs and fundys, it certainly catches the eye of the market community.

CCNI Techs

The CCNI stock chart has slid recently in what is a commonplace for a stock that has been on a long, steady climb as profit-takers secure some gains and the chart “takes a breather.” A price per share (PPS) support level is intact at 39 cents which has recently been reinforced in the early days of May with any dips below resulting in quick buying pressure to above the support line. While there is some secondary resistance at 50 cents, the next level of resistance is at the old high of $0.56. A break of that resistance will mean testing the upper side of the channel which will garner the attention of technical traders as that level represents a new 52-week high.

Commonly-used indicators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) and Full Stochastic (STO) took a sharp turn downward as the PPS fell from the highs in late March and early April, but are now showing signs of life and recovery after a bounce off the 200 day simple moving average (DMA). Technical traders will be looking for some trendlines to broken as the chart appears to be gearing up to break free from its pull-back channel. Additionally, it is important to note that 200 day simple moving average is trending upward and that the PPS is holding over the 200 DMA. A share value climb back over the 50 DMA may be in store for the PPS which will put the chart back into the most bullish of all positions by trending over both of the important DMA’s.

Fundamentally Driven

Command Center provides on-demand employment solutions to businesses in the United States, primarily in the areas of light industrial, hospitality and event services, as well as other assignments. Fundamentally, the share structure is intact with only 56 million shares outstanding and, because of the high insider holdings of 27 percent, there are about 40 million shares available for trading in the float.

Command’s revenue in 2010 was nearly $70 million with EBITDA of $1.5 million – quite a rarity in the small-cap world to post such strong numbers. Earlier this month, the Company announced revenue of $16.40 million for the first quarter ending April 1, 2011, a 38% increase on revenue of $11.90 million recorded in the comparable period of 2010. Helping to push the surging figures has been a consistent improvement in core growth – to the point where the company is now beginning to open branch offices in new locations. The current number is 53 offices versus an average of 50 offices during the past two years.

Because of Command Center’s business model, expansion and growth is facilitated in an economical fashion and designed to meet the needs of clients across the U.S. As evident with the financial reports, business is strong for the burgeoning company. Today’s economic conditions play right into the strengths of CCNI as staffing customers can rely on Command to achieve labor solutions with predictable fixed costs.

The Right Place at the Right Time

Bobby Unser once said, “Success is where preparation and opportunity meet.” That saying rings especially true with the stock market, for both companies and investors. It bears much weight in a company aligning a business model with market conditions to increase sales and, hence, shareholder value, along with future growth towards sustained profitability.

For investors, solid fundamentals can be the foundation behind many decisions, but when blended with technical analysis it can help pinpoint opportunities to enter into or add to a position as well as identification of potential trend shifts. Analysts and savvy investors know it is never just a shot in the dark or the toss of a dart when making any investment decisions. It is the strength of all aspects of research and knowing when a catalyst could be made available to drive share prices higher. It’s not merely a coincidence that some people are always in the right place at the right time.

When considering Command Center, both technical and fundamental analyses paint a compelling case as to why an investment in the company today may well be thought of just that: being in the right place at the right time.

Littlefield Corporation (OTCQB: LTFD), the largest public owner and operator of charitable bingo halls in the United States, recently reported first quarter results showing consolidated revenues of $2,851,809 and gross margins of 42%. The strong results come despite four days of snow and ice storms that resulted in the closure of its 20 South Carolina bingo halls and increased competition.

The company’s net income (excluding items) came in at approximately $411,000, or $0.02 per basic share, while its book value per share stands at around $0.79 per share. With profitable earnings and a stock price trading below its book value, investors may want to take a closer look at this unique company over the coming months and years as it executes its new acquisition-driven growth plan.

Several Catalysts in Court Rulings & Deal Flow

Littlefield outlined several key growth drivers in its press release and conference call that could unlock further value for shareholders. First, the company settled its litigation in Abilene, Texas, which will reduce its legal expenses and leaves the hall with an attractive position in the market. Meanwhile, the firm’s Florida case is scheduled to go to trial in the near future, and could result in favorable rulings.

Looking ahead, the company disclosed on its conference call that it has one pending acquisition and substantial acquisition deal flow in the pipeline. With low penetration in its existing markets providing room for further growth and two additional states being looked at for additional penetration, the company is devoting more man-hours in its acquisition effort and sees it as a key growth driver moving forward.

Mineral Lease Provides “Upside” Potential

During the first quarter, Littlefield signed a mineral lease with an experienced drilling company that provides the right to drill an oil well on a portion of its Ambler Bingo property. The company is incurring no expenses in conjunction with the drilling, and any successful oil and gas production will result in a royalty payment for the company and its shareholders.

While the company didn’t provide much additional information in its conference call, the oil and gas well could result in significant additional revenues and cash flow, if successful when it is drilled this summer. However, the company was adamant in noting that it does not plan to change its business plan in any way, and investors would be wise to consider this a bonus rather than an expectation.

Conclusions

Littlefield was greatly impacted from the snow storms in South Carolina during the first quarter, but continued to report strong top and bottom line results. Looking ahead, the company sees many growth catalysts – ranging from reduced legal costs to strong acquisition deal flow – that could help future top and bottom line results. As a result, investors may want to take a close look at Littlefield Corporation (OTCQB: LTFD) over the coming weeks and months.

General Metals Corporation (OTCBB: GNMT), a junior minerals exploration and development company, could be set to unlock significant value in its Independence Project. The predominantly silver mine has been producing intermittently from 1938 to 1987 with historic production of 750,200 ounces of silver and 11,029 ounces of gold with grades of around 0.17 o/t of gold and 11.53 o/t of silver.

Significant Reserves Could Unlock Big Value

General Metals believes that the Independence Project could have about 210,400 ounces of gold and 3,990,500 ounces of silver on the surface, with an additional 769,000 ounces of gold underground. At relatively conservative market prices, these reserves could be worth upwards of $270 million by 2017, assuming a seven year drilling cycle and around $82 million in capital expenditures.

Using a relatively simple discounted cash flow analysis, this $270 million would be worth approximately $138.5 million in today’s dollars, assuming a 10% discount rate and seven year time horizon. Meanwhile, the company currently trades with a market capitalization of under $10 million, which means that it may be significantly undervalued given its potential.

Independence Project Continues to Move Forward

While the Independence Project may appear undervalued, it’s ultimately the execution of General Metals’ business plan that will unlock that value. In March of this year, the company raised more than $200,000 to advance the project through permitting and metallurgical work, while it has already paid for much of the testing and other work before it begins, ensuring uninterrupted progress.

The project is expected to begin seeing production as soon as permitting is completed hopefully during 2012, when it can begin to take advantage of the low-hanging fruit via inexpensive surfacing mining. Meanwhile, the company will likely start to drill and explore its additional surface area and it’s underground reserves after cash flow from the surface mining begins.

Conclusions

Given the dramatic rise in the price of precious metals and General Metals’ significant reserve potential, the company appears well-positioned to execute on its plans and begin production in the coming year. As a result, this is one stock that metals investors may want to consider for their portfolios.

With gasoline topping $4.00 per gallon and quite possibly heading for $5.00, and utility costs skyrocketing, Nevada Geothermal Power, Inc. presses forward its expansion plans. With five major geothermal properties in geo-hotspots in the western U.S. and one of those already selling electricity, the company continues exploratory drilling and expansion.

Overview of Geothermal Market

The United States is the world’s leader in geothermal development. Most of the serious geothermal availability is concentrated in its western states, where Nevada Geothermal’s holdings are located. The map below shows U.S. geothermal concentrations by temperature.

As can be seen from the map, Nevada Geothermal’s five properties are well-positioned. Four of these are in Nevada (Blue Mountain, Pumpernickel, North Valley, and Edna Mountain), and the fifth is at Crump Geyser in Oregon, all hotspots with excellent electricity production potential. As compared to a map from the U.S. Department of Energy, the location of the Nevada Geothermal properties are not only in areas in excess of 100° C, they are actually in areas at the highest end of the DoE scale by tipping the thermometer greater than 200° C. Their 50-mw power plant at Blue Mountain (‘Faulkner 1′) is up and running, selling power to utility company NV Energy under a 20-year contract.

How Geothermal Works

Though it’s one of the most efficient and environmentally friendly means of generating electricity, geothermal garners a lot less press coverage than other green energy enterprises for no justifiable reason. Once initial costs are covered, it’s one of the most profitable energy businesses on the planet. Besides its low environmental impact, geothermal offers the advantages of operating in a much smaller space and almost total recycling of its ‘fuel’, which is steam generated by the earth itself.

Many geothermal regions produce their own steam, a result of water interacting with high-temperature rock or magma. Some regions are dry, however, and require injection of water to operate.

There are different approaches to harvesting geothermal energy. The method preferred by Nevada Geothermal is ‘binary production’. In binary production, underground steam is not used to directly drive an electrical turbine. Instead, heat is transferred from the steam to a liquid (Nevada Geothermal uses isopentane) with a boiling point lower than water. The isopentane turns to high-pressure vapor and drives the turbine, then passes on to a cooling system (condenser) and is then returned to repeat the process, which is continuous. The steam is also passed through a condenser and returns underground as water, renewing the process. The system is thus substantially closed and self-renewing.

Uncle Sam Wants It Done

The U.S. and state governments have a broad array of programs in support of geothermal development. These take various forms, including grants, loans, loan guarantees, and tax incentives. In fact, one of the greatest hurdles in becoming a successful geothermal company is initial financing; drilling costs money to find optimal plant placement, easements must be acquired for power lines across properties to link up with major utility grids, and there are research and analysis costs. Nevada Geothermal has demonstrated the keenest of skill in obtaining financing for all aspects of development by leveraging the many government programs as well as teaming with major names in the industry.

In the company’s recent quarterly newsletter, CEO Brian D. Fairbank, P. Eng., noted that the company’s recent achievements “include obtaining a US$58.9 million dollar U.S. Treasury Grant issued to NGP Blue Mountain 1 LLC in November 2009; closing a US$98.5 million loan at 4.14% in September 2010 with John Hancock Financial Services backed by the US Department of Energy with a loan guarantee for 80% of the loan amount; closing a C$10.35 million non-brokered Private Placement in September 2010; and completing monetary arrangements announced in early November 2010 whereby NGP has
partnered with Ormat, providing access to all the capital necessary to develop the Crump Geyser Geothermal Project in Oregon.”

In a surprise move last week, geothermal got a lift from Energy Secretary Steven Chu, who announced changes to expedite funding disbursement from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Reiterating the vigor of government initiatives, the popular website, EnergyMatters.com, stated, “If becoming world leader in renewable energy research, development and manufacture is a battle, you can bet that’s a fight the USA intends on winning, and money – even the free market system itself – is no object,” citing that the U.S. has slipped to third in clean energy investments (China is number one) and intends to make-up the ground.

Some 37 states require public utilities to obtain fixed minimum percentages of their power from renewable sources. Demand presently outstrips supply, which is helping to keep prices high for all forms of renewable energy, including geothermal. Nevada Geothermal stands ready to reap the rewards; its present holdings alone offering the potential of selling 150 to 289 megawatts. One project is already producing and others are in prime locations are funded and moving forward, leaving time as the only apparent factor between Nevada Geothermal Power and substantial, highly-profitable revenue.

CryoPort Inc. (OTCBB: CYRX), a provider of technology-driven transport and packaging systems focused on the frozen shipping markets, offers shipping companies new sources of revenues. By utilizing its unique solutions, shipping companies can offer enhanced products and services to their customers and differentiate themselves from the competition using outdated dry ice methods.

A Unique Solution for Shipping Companies

Traditional frozen shipping methods utilize dry ice to keep everything in order, but this solution is only reliable for 2-3 days before needing re-icing. When frozen shipments occur on-time, this typically isn’t much of a problem, but any kind of delays can lead to a rapid escalation in costs. For example, Iceland’s volcano led to a crisis for many biological products that were delayed.

The proprietary CyroPort Express solution combines a state-of-the-art web portal for a time saving and hassle free process with a proprietary dry vapor liquid nitrogen container to make the transport and logistics of sending biological materials easier and more reliable compared to traditional dry ice methods. The turnkey shipping solution maintains -150C temperatures for more than 10 days at a time using “green” solutions as an alternative to the current hazards and waste.

Outsourcing can Dramatically Boost Profits

The shipping industry has gradually moved from a commodity business to a value-added logistics and supply chain solution that seamlessly integrates logistics service providers (LSPs) and freight carriers. With unique solutions required for many different industries, such as frozen shipping for life sciences companies, these LSPs provide unique and necessary solutions to enhance the supply chain.

CryoPort is a unique LSP that provides a best-practices solution for shipping companies to offer affordable, effective and “green” frozen shipment solutions for life sciences companies. The company enables these shipping companies to offer more advanced solutions and take market share from others using dry ice and other inferior solutions, while also enhancing shipper margins.

Conclusions

With its unique CryoPort Express solution, CryoPort Inc. (OTCBB: CYRX) offers shipping companies a way to improve their cold chain shipping solutions and enhance their profit margins. FedEx Corporation (NYSE: FDX) and privately held DHL have already signed a deal with the company, and many investors are betting that future deals will ultimately unlock significant value for shareholders.
