I
love
the end of the year. It's usually a great time for stocks, and particularly
strong for small caps. I think December of 2007 could be even better
than usual for small caps, thanks to a healthy pullback in November.
If
it was also around this time of year I found a company with a market
cap about 1/6 the size of its back-logged orders, I'd be more than
a little interested. Why? In my trading experience, those
names often pose much less risk than most other small stocks
because they've not yet fully matured based on their underlying fundamentals.
Yet, they still provide a real possibility for above average returns.
Or
in simpler terms, I'd consider it one of those rare 'alignments of the
planets.'
Of
course, I only have a chance at making any money if I have the guts and
foresight to actually be in the small cap market when I see a stock
like that.
Well
fellow investors, the Small Cap Network has uncovered what we feel
is another incredible opportunity with such a description....an undervalued
company in a potentially bullish environment. The kicker is, the company
already has enough revenue lined up for 2008 to support what I think should
be a stock valuation as much as ten times what it is now. With this
in mind, I strongly suggest you read on...
The
company is called Spongetech Delivery Systems (OTCBB:
SPNG). They've designed and started to market an ingenious cleaning
product - the kind you see on TV or in the store and say "I wish I had
thought of that." You'll see exactly what I'm so excited about in a second...the
numbers are astounding.
Brilliantly
Simple Product
I've
been in this business for a while now, and if there's one thing I've learned
it's this - tangible things are easier to sell than concepts. In
Spongetech's case, the company's real revenue-bearing product has obvious
marketable benefits.
Basically,
Spongetech makes specialty auto-wash sponges designed to dispense
soap and/or wax held within the fibers of the sponge. Each sponge is good
for several washes, and can then be replaced with a new one for only a
few bucks. (Read 'renewable revenue'.)
Too
simple of a product to draw any consumer interest? I can't say the
thought didn't run through my head, but then I really started thinking
about what all I have to do just to get my own car washed, or even waxed,
on the rare occasions when I do it. In addition to the water and bucket
I'd need to supply no matter what, I then have to find my car-wash soap....if
I have any. Then I have to find my car wax....if I have any. Then
I have to find my wash cloth or a soft sponge....if I can. Then
I have to mix the soap/water solution myself. And if I want to do a
really nice wax job, I have wait for the car to dry or dry it myself,
and then bust my hands and elbows putting my separate wax product on afterwards.
Or,
I can just get a Spongetech sponge and not worry about all the other steps.
In the end, my bottom line cost is about the same either way.
All
of a sudden the product looks pretty darn attractive, doesn't it?
Spongetech
is also exploring several other applications for its unique sponge
technology. The immediately-obvious uses for a soap-filled sponge
are in bathrooms and kitchens, but the company is also working on a children's
bath sponge. In other words, shareholders may end up benefiting from three
distinct revenue paths rather than just one.
It's
All About The Benjamins
Yes
it's a novel product idea, but I'm under no illusion about why any of us
invest - we want to grow our portfolios as much as possible relative
to the risks we take. That's why it's ultimately about 'the numbers'
when it comes to a company's long-term profitability plan. With that in
mind, I think you're going to love Spongetech fiscal projections.
(I'll
go ahead and let you know some of the now-and-later differences may look
like typos, but they're not. The company wasn't operating at its current
capacity as of the last reported quarter, and a lot of orders have rolled
in since then.)
For
the quarter ending August 31st (their most recent complete quarter)
the company did $64,000 in sales. Annualized, and assuming that's the
average quarter, you'd expect full-year revenues to be about $256,000.
Well try this on for size....according to today's press release, Spongetech
has a sales backlog of $14 million for the next twelve months (between
Q4 of 2007 and the end of Q3 2008). That's only a mere 5369%
improvement on last quarter's annualized revenue production.
How
does a company do that? E-commerce and amore distributors are a couple
of ways Spongetech did it, but trade shows have been huge new-business
builders - as we learned just a few moments ago. Spongetech's
attendance at the Las Vegas trade show earlier in the month led to $1.38
million in new orders....from just one show. The press release is below.
Spongetech plans to present their goods at even more trade shows
in 2008. (And can you blame them?)
The
piece
de'resistance, however, is the new infomercial and its fortunate timing.
If you haven't seen it yet, you probably will soon. The expected sales
results over the next 18 months from this TV-marketing venue were in the
$20 million range...before the television writer's strike. Somehow
as a result of the strike, Spongetech is slated to get three times the
amount of airtime they had originally bought for the infomercial, though
it didn't cost them one penny more.
And
profitability? That's the really exciting part. The $64K they
did in sponge sales last quarter cost them only $13K, meaning they grossed
about $51,000, or 79%. Granted there's going to always be marketing and
administration expenses, but the company runs very lean in terms of staff,
and even leaner in terms of payroll.
Nailing
Down A Target
This
company's report card so far has all A's, and its capitalization is no
different. There are no lingering warrants or options out there like ticking
time-bombs. The management team put up the initial money, out of their
own pockets, and they want the same thing every other investor would
want - a higher stock price. There are presently 46.8 million of
those shares issued and outstanding, which brings us to our final point...
At
5 cents per share, this company's market cap is an incredibly low $2.34
million. No you didn't read that wrong....a company that's looking at $14
million in sales orders (on the low end) for the next twelve months is
valued - or should I say undervalued - at $2.34 million. Just for
perspective, a typical company doing about $14 million in annual sales
would be priced with a market cap somewhere around $28 million. SPNG's
is about a tenth of that.
That's
a phenomenally low entry opportunity for fans of Spongetech's potential,
which
could make your percentage return on a rally far greater than most anybody
else's.
We're
suggesting an initial target of 12 cents for SPNG, where the recent peaks
came. In some regards that's a lot (a 200% return), but relative to the
kind of sales totals on the table, I think it's actually still low. I'll
also suggest not stepping in at a level greater than 6 cents for the time
being...if you have that luxury. Check the blog early today in case we
publish some perspective on the issue.
As
for a suggested stop, 2 cents looks appropriate, or 2.5 cents if your trading
platform can handle decimals.
So
what's the downside in owing a piece of Spongetech? That's kind of
the point...if there's a significant one, I sure can't see it. I
just think the rest of the market doesn't see the upside yet. I see it
though. Given the low cost of goods sold alongside the kind of volume increase
we're now looking for, I think a swing to profitability could occur within
the next few quarters.
I wish
there was some awe-inspiring conclusion I could make here, but frankly,
I
think the story speaks for itself. I know after digging into this company's
fundamentals, I was blown away by the numbers.
What
you do with those numbers is up to you, but let's face it - Spongetech
is a pretty straight-forward opportunity. There's a real product
that can drive real revenues right now, so the risks and
rewards shouldn't be too hard to grasp. I believe when it's all said and
done six to twelve months down the road, we may all look back on this one
and chalk it up as a no brainer.
SpongeTech
Delivery Systems, Inc. $1.38 Million in Orders World Wide from the Trade
Shows in Las Vegas!
$1,381,500
orders from Amsterdam, Dubai, Canada, Panama and USA!!
NEW YORK, Nov.
30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/-- SpongeTech Delivery Systems, Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: SPNG) announced today $1,381,562.50 in orders came
in since the beginning of the month from the Las Vegas trade shows. The
company received world wide orders from countries like Amsterdam, Dubai,
Canada, Panama, and, of course, the USA. The company now has approximately
$14 million in orders with shipping dates to customers over the next 12
months. The company shipped approximately $300,000 in orders, 9/01/07 -
11/30/07, this quarter only.
Steven Moskowitz,
of SpongeTech Delivery Systems, stated "The SEMA / AAPEX Show in Las Vegas
last month was a great show. We received close to $1.4 million for new
products from countries world-wide. I was at the show and spoke to so many
international buyers myself. I think we could see more orders coming in
over the next few months, especially after we start integrating their company's
products into our sponge technology. This is a nice 'thank you' to the
investors and shareholders who have stayed with the company when we were
getting started." Mr. Moskowitz also added, "We truly are a world-wide
company! We have definitely forged ahead with our environmentally-safe
products and look forward to continuing. SpongeTech, we are proud to say,
is helping in the Green campaign by allowing our customers to 'Go Green'
every month!"
