For the most part, SmallCap stocks tend to be about promising potential. Superclick (OTCBB: SPCK) is all about delivering the goods. Make no mistake as to import of the company's announcement (release below) regarding its preferred Internet supplier deal with Europe's premier integrator of video and high speed Internet solutions, Locatel. Servicing in excess of 2000 hotels and 1000 hospitals and clinics, Locatel is in the business of providing first-class IP infrastructure to its customers. Superclick's Internet Management Solution (SIMS) is now a key part of that explosive business.  This deal is a huge win for Superclick and ultimately for its shareholders. What's a Locatel? From the release: Locatel is the leading French supplier of audiovisual and interactive screen-based services to the European hospitality and healthcare markets. The company currently services more than 2,000 hotels and 1,000 hospitals and clinics. We continue to suggest accumulation at these levels for risk-oriented investors. Since we Alerted the readership to Superclick in February at 46 cents, the shares have moved in fairly measured fashion to return almost 75 percent, so far, as the shares trade in the 80-cent range. Since February, although the shares have hit $1.16 in the interim, they subsequently corrected with the rest of the market to find themselves at today's level--still well above our initial Alert price. While impressed with SPCK's progress, we'd like to see a break above 93 cents to reconfirm the bullish trend seen earlier in the summer. And we may well, soon. We firmly believe that the quality of the deals announced over the past few months as well as the potential to increase 2003 revenue of $650,000 more than four-fold for fiscal 2004 (as at October 31st) are compelling reasons to initiate or continue accumulation of the shares. Over the past months, Superclick has inked deals with behemoth Verizon and Locatel, as well as some significant others. Revenue guidance for fiscal 2004 has been raised, I believe, three times to the current range of between $2.6 to $2.75 million. I couldn't put it better than comments made by Chairman Todd Pitcher in a recent press release: "The exceptional growth we continue to see is due to strong execution by our management team, the Verizon reseller relationship maturing into a meaningful percentage of our channel sales, and the widening acceptance of our Superclick Internet Management System (SIMS(tm)) as ''best in class`` within the hospitality market place". The complete October 14th revised guidance release is here: http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/041014/65580.html Now, the company can add the impressive and, we believe, lucrative Locatel agreement to that claim--as well as the exciting Caribbean business foray we covered on September 23rd.  Given the company's progress to date, we believe that it is reasonable to assume more deals will be announced over the coming weeks and months.  Temper our excitement... As good and profitable as the Verizon (NYSE: VZ) deal is, I'm frankly more excited by Friday's announcement. Locatel is even more focused in Superclick's core markets and also brings SPCK strong exposure to the massive healthcare sector. Europe is also a far bigger tourist market than the US and Internet access penetration is less than 10 percent, woefully below even the low penetration in the US. At 38 percent of global hotel capacity, Europe represents the largest hospitality sector of the six world tourism regions I've noticed over the months that while Superclick's customers always mention the robustness of the technology, they also make a point of pointing out the complete, turnkey nature of the solution. While Internet access is the goal for customers, more important is the 24/7/365 management, profitability and cost savings afforded by Superclick.  As well, the continuous addition of critical features, options and upgrades continually earn 'best in class' plaudits from those same customers. One has to be impressed with Superclick's progress over the last few months. The enigma for me is that the company has been slow to blip onto investors' radar screens. No matter, as that represents an advantage for the SmallCap readership and especially those who have been accumulating shares since February.  Being in position as the profile of the company grows will undoubtedly pay those risk-oriented investors who saw the potential early. And in light of Friday's announcement, accumulation is still warranted. If the company can deliver these kinds of goods in a scant few months, no telling how well the shares will do by this time next year. Superclick has a history of not sitting on its laurels. Unlike a lot of its SmallCap peers--not including, of course, the great companies that SmallCap Digest follows--Superclick's management continuously delivers both for the company and its shareholders. As I've said before, the company deserves--and will ultimately receive--way more investor attention.   Leading European VOD Integrator Selects Superclick for High Speed Internet Access Solutions Thursday December 2, 4:10 pm ET LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., Dec. 2, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Superclick, Inc.
