The company feels that with the current subscriber base, annualized revenues for 2005 should see a 29 percent increase to C$5.7 million ($4.6 million). Since the corporate mandate is to aggressively add subscribers, we feel that both the customer base and the subsequent revenues generated should move well beyond the projections, and quickly. Read our April 17th Trading Alert for background on Stream--well worth your time, IMHO. Stream shares have been solid in the past weeks; trading well with decent volumes. The risk reward at these levels appears excellent as the stock is trading at the lower end of the .618 retracement of the price run, which started late last year.  The stock appears well supported at current levels, but a mental stop at 63 cents or so is prudent to avoid an unexpected sell-off in the stock. We continue to suggest accumulation at these levels by risk-oriented investors. 8th with a bullet We have little doubt that Stream's current acquisitive nature and execution of its business plan will see it climb rapidly (it's currently the 8th largest) up the list of cable/internet providers in Poland. Through its offices in Krakow, Poland it is well positioned to grow its business quickly as it acquires other providers and folds the subscribers into its network. With decreases in operating and technology costs, increased revenues and cost savings should impact significantly to grow positive cash flows. As well, the initiatives to add premium services to both residential and businesses will further enhance growth and revenues. We mentioned on April 17th the speed with which businesses such as Stream's can grow as evidenced by over 20 years of cable/internet growth in the US. We feel that Stream has exploited a niche that will take way less time to realize that growth and bring with it the attendant revenues, both for the company and its shareholders. Revenues come from subscriber growth as well as adding new services to existing customers. For those investors who wish exposure to a unique and frankly, established sector, Stream offers an interesting and we believe profitable addition to the speculative end of a portfolio. The technical aspects of the shares look compelling for traders and the business as a whole looks good for long-term investors. Something for everyone, it seems.   Press Release Stream to Release 2004 Year End Financials Wednesday May 4, 4:00 pm ET  VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Stream Communications Network & Media Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SCNWF - News) wishes to report a 19.3% revenue increase from $3.7 million CDN in 2003 to $4.415 million CDN in 2004, which was mainly attributed to an increase in average revenue per subscriber and revenues from new service offerings.
