Winning
in Vegas - Network Announces Record Growth
Winning
in Vegas is no easy task, but for Network Installation Corporation (OTCBB:
NWKI), it's becoming a very common theme. Network announced today record
revenues of $6.8 Million for the quarter ending March 31, 2006 compared
to $750,716 for the same quarter of '05, an astounding 800% increase. To
add to its phenomenal revenue growth figures, Network also managed to annihilate
per share losses, reducing losses from (.31) per share a year ago to a
remarkable (.03) per share loss (See release below).
As
Network continues to impress and attract high profile, high value customers
with its innovative system's design capabilities, it appears to be rapidly
on its way toward establishing a major footprint in the ever-profitable
gaming and luxury condo markets. With today's revenues and earnings announcement,
it is our opinion that Network's momentum is just starting to pick up steam.
Couple this with the fact that the stock has been unable to find any traction
of late, and it is our opinion that there continues to exist significant
upside potential in the stock in coming months, as Network's growth gets
priced in. These are the opportunities we always look to identify
in the micro and small cap markets.
That
was then, this is now...
Only
a year ago the Company was trading at $1.25 and only fifteen months ago
above $2. So, record quarterly revenue and roughly a 65% discount in the
stock compared to a year ago? You get the picture. Revenues have gone from
virtually non-existent to where you see them today. The board of directors
brought in super star CEO Jeffrey R. Hultman, who brings with him an impressive
track record. Hultman himself has also in turn added some real super star
talent to his management team. Additionally, in 2005 Kelley Technologies
was acquired, who in turn has nailed some monster sports book contracts
with names such as Boyd Gaming Corporation, MGM Mirage, and Station Casinos.
We've
said it many times before - when you invest in small growth stories, take
a hard look at the management, In our opinion, one of the key reasons to
own Network is CEO Jeff Hultman and his management team. Over a long career,
Hultman has racked up an impressive history of successfully growing companies
and selling them at large premiums. Among others, he drove PacTel sales
from $100 million to $1 billion. Verizon ultimately wrote a big check to
shareholders.
Location,
location, location...
Corporate
headquarter relocation to Las Vegas was just another in a string of changes
credited to Network CEO Jeffrey R. Hultman. The city is one of the nation's
fastest-growing major metropolitan areas, with a population growth of 4.6%
per year, 20% from 1999-2004 and nearly doubling in size from 1985-1997.
Las Vegas is also the nation's number one convention city.
"
... Las Vegas is the undisputed center of the universe ... " - Jeffrey
R. Hultman
Due
to the Company's deep roots in Vegas (subsidiary Kelley Technologies has
been conducting business there for 40 plus years), it is no surprise that
Network has hooked up with Vegas-based Pinnacle High Rise Luxury Condo
Development, again. After designing the sales center for Pinnacle, Network
has been retained to design the communications network for the more than
1,000 residential units within the development, which will be 100% retrofitted
with the necessary infrastructure to support telephone, cable, high-speed
internet, and satellite television.
Just
one large-scale contract win with another potential giant such as Pinnacle
could propel Network into the limelight and establish the Company as a
frontrunner in providing communications infrastructure to the explosive
Las Vegas MDU marketplace. As the city prepares for the construction of
the more than 20 MDU related projects on the horizon, Network has established
an early footprint in a surging market and is looking to further solidify
its position. With design contract in hand, the ball is in Network's court.
It
appears Hultman is working his strategic magic again. Owning shares
at current levels may prove extremely prudent and profitable over the next
couple of years.
No
one-trick ponies allowed...
Although
the MDU marketplace represents an enormous opportunity, Network is anything
but a one-trick pony. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Kelley Technologies
is a frontrunner in the electronic sports book industry, with orders and
design contracts for its next-generation sports book coming in from around
the world.
Besides
the fact that industry pioneer Mike Kelley is captaining the ship (Mr.
Kelley played a key role in the design and implementation of the first
electronic sports book which debuted in Caesar's Palace Las Vegas), Network
currently boasts a clientele of gaming and hospitality heavy hitters such
as MGM Mirage (NYSE: MGM),
Mandalay Bay Resort Group, Harrah's Entertainment Group (NYSE:
HET), Palm Resorts-N9ine Group, and Venetian Resorts and Casino.
On
the gaming side of its business, Network has recently developed a new and
innovative electronic sports book system that is expected to revolutionize
the gaming industry. Company officials have stated in the past that they
expect the new gaming system to be adopted in an excess of 75 hospitality
and gaming organizations within Las Vegas in a relatively short period
of time. Widespread adoption across even 50% of these potential 75 organizations
provides tremendous revenue growth opportunities. As a result, the Network
story could get even more compelling in the coming months ahead.
Build
it and they will come...
Network's
recently developed cutting-edge sports book solution and it is beginning
to pay off. Since the initial introduction of the system in late April
at Station Casinos' (NYSE: STN)
$925 million Red Rock Casino Resort Spa in Las Vegas, design projects and
orders alike have been rolling in.
Network's
latest contract announcement with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic
City, NJ may be more than initially meets the eye. Why? Borgata is a joint
venture development of Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE:
BYD) and MGM MIRAGE, both giants in the Las Vegas gaming industry.
Contracts such as this are an extremely positive indicator of what may
be on the horizon for Network.
But
it gets better. Existing contracts for this must-have system add up to
less than 5% of the potential 75 future contracts outlined by Company officials.
With a history of well-established relationships coupled with a hall of
fame clientele that includes the likes of MGM Mirage and Harrah's Entertainment
Group, you do the math.
Some
of the best investment decisions just make good old-fashioned logical sense.

Xtreme
Appoints New CEO
Xtreme
Companies, Inc. (OTCBB:
XTME) announced today the appointment of a new CEO. Xtreme CFO Laurie
Phillips, heavily experienced in the manufacturing industry, will replace
Kevin Ryan as CEO. Click
here to read the release. Phillips brings a wealth of knowledge of
finance and management as well as an in depth understanding of the sales
and marketing processes of Xtreme. Her prior experience directing a manufacturing
and assembly organization of over 200 employees should serve her well at
the helm.
The
stock has been all but a trend follower so far in '06. Starting the year
out at $0.11, bouncing around, and now trading at $0.09, just a penny off
its all-time low. With more and more fundamental progress taking place
at the Company, something just isn't right here. Revenues are way up (see
April 15th edition), production is way up and they closed the acquisition
for industry leading boat manufacturer Challenger Offshore.
So....
what's with the stock price? At the risk of sounding like a simpleton,
supply and demand, more selling than buying. Everyone is bailing on the
stock, giving up, throwing in the towel. The herd mentality is one worth
discarding. If the masses are buying, it is usually a good time to sell
and if the masses are selling, well you get the picture. Look at the price
of XTME stock, now look at the astounding fundamental progress recently
and you make the call.
Clearly
an Up Trend
Clearly
Canadian Beverage Corporation (OTCBB:
CCBEF) continues climbing despite the recent massive sell-off in ALL
equity markets. Not a pretty last week for the broader markets. The Dow
is down 2-½% or almost 300 points from it's high of 11,670 last
Wednesday. The NASDAQ Composite Index is off 4-½% and the S&P
Small Cap 600 Index down nearly 5%. What did Clearly do last week? Up 4%!
A tell tale sign of strong price action in a stock is when it's moving
opposite a strong market trend. Up 25% in 16 trading days and 4% in a broad
base sell off week, I think Clearly Canadian is Clearly a strong
stock. Buying any pullbacks is strongly suggested. If the pullback opportunity
presents itself, there is good support in the $2.60 - $2.65 area and strong
support in the $2.45 - $2.50 range.
Fashion
House Loads up Key Execs
Last
week was a busy one at The Fashion House (OTCBB:
FHHI). A new National Sales Manager (see
press release), James M. Burt, was brought in for it's Oscar by Oscar
de la Renta line and Scott Kaminsky was named the new Vice President (see
press release), both coming on board with years of successful industry
background and experience. James M. Burt comes to Fashion House after having
various responsibilities with big name players such as Saks Fifth Avenue
(NYSE: SKS), Nordstrom's
(NYSE: JWN) and Bloomingdale's
(NYSE: FD). Scott Kaminsky
comes aboard with over 20 years of industry experience, most recently as
the vice president of XOXO Footwear. Mr. Kaminsky has a proven track record
of improving margins and increasing sales. He will oversee the Company's
Richard Tyler division, the largest women's footwear line distributed by
the Company. Changes such as the management additions named above coupled
with exclusive worldwide licensing agreements with the likes of Bill Blass,
Oscar de la Renta, Richard Tyler and Isaac Mizrahi will only help The Fashion
House grab a bigger piece of the rapidly growing $50 billion footwear market.
The
stock has had a very volatile 2006, running from $1.10 to $2.35 and back
down. There appears to be some support at current levels. The run up occurred
on expanding volume and the drop, with the exception of a couple of days
was on relatively light volume. Regardless, I would play this one safe.
Watch first for support and second for buying to come in. We will be doing
the same and keeping you posted with our thoughts and ideas.

TGR Group LLC
has been paid a fee of $30,000 and 200,000 newly issued restricted shares
of Network Installation for coverage of the company. In addition, one of
the principles of TGR Group LLC is also a principle of MarketByte LLC.
In a separate contractual relationship in 2003, MarketByte LLC was paid
a fee of $25,000 in cash and 500,00 newly issued, restricted shares by
Network Installation for coverage of the company. The term of MarketByte's
obligation to NeWave has expired. The aforementioned 500,000 shares issued
to MarketByte LLC have become free trading, and whatever number remains
could be sold at anytime. This should be viewed as a potential conflict
of interest.
TGR Group LLC
has been paid a fee of $25,000 cash and 500,000 shares of newly issued
restricted stock directly by Xtreme Companies for coverage. The aforementioned
shares have become free trading under Rule 144. On March 7, 2006, TGR Group
LLC entered into a contract extension whereby TGR could receive as much
as $65,000 cash and 1 million, newly issued restricted shares over the
