WOW!Nano zum Schnäppchenpreis: AMR Tec. (189904)
bin jetzt auf ein Unternehmen gestoßen, dass ein richtiger Highflyer werden sollte! Gibt gerade heute gute Einstiegskurse, da der Wert in Kanada gestern etwas konsolidiert hat!
Zunächst etwas aus dem aktuellsten Nanotech-Report:
"Das kanadische Unternehmen AMR Technologies glänzt auf dem Gebiet der Materialherstellung im Nanometerbereich. AMR weist auch im Bereich Nanopartikel Kompetenzen auf. Diese Teilchen sind weniger als 100 Nanometer groß und damit ungefähr 5.000 Mal kleiner als der Durchmesser eines Haares. In diesen winzigen Dimensionen entstehen neue und einzigartige Materialeigenschaften. Durch den gezielten Einsatz unterschiedlichster chemischer und physikalischer Funktionen auf der Oberfläche eines Nanopartikels können neuartige Werkstoffe erschaffen werden. AMR besitzt schon heute einen festen kundenstmm, der dem Unternehmen von quartal zu Quartal steigende Umsätze beschert. Einen ausführlichen Bericht über AMR lesen Sie in der kommenden Ausgabe des Nanotech-Reports."

Und jetzt kommt die neueste PR vom Montag:
AMR announces major new nanotechnology application
2/9/04
TORONTO, Feb 09, 2004 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) --
AMR Technologies Inc. ('AMR') (TSX:AMR) announced today that it has developed a novel form of nanosized Cerium oxide material which has significant implications for use in a major global consumer product. If this product succeeds in the marketplace, AMR estimates
that sales of its materials would result in revenues to AMR of approximately US$25m per annum for every 1% worldwide market share penetration by the product. It is still uncertain when the consumer product might be introduced to the market because it continues to be under development and subject to further evaluation by the customer.
AMR has been developing its nanotechnology platform for over five years under the direction of Dr. James L. Woodhead at AMR's Nanotechnology Centre in Abingdon, UK. AMR has applied its technology to meet the performance specifications and requirements stipulated by a customer which holds a major market share in the above-mentioned consumer product. AMR and this customer have entered into a 10-year exclusive agreement to supply nanosized cerium oxide and other related materials required in the production of this consumer product following its commercialization.
AMR's customer holds an extensive portfolio of patents and patent applications on this consumer product. A confidentiality agreement in place between AMR and its customer prevents the Company from disclosing the name of its customer and the nature of the application.
Peter Gundy, AMR's Chairman and CEO stated, 'This supply agreement is an example of the significant long term growth potential of our nanotechnology initiative. It clearly demonstrates our capabilities in developing and commercializing nanotechnology products and applications.'
About AMR
Founded in 1993, AMR produces, processes and develops rare earth and zirconium based engineered materials and applications that are essential in many of today's high technology products. These include computers, TVs, VCRs, cell phones and CD players. AMR separates and purifies rare earth materials at two plants in China and sells to multinationals in Europe, North America, Korea and Japan. AMR manufactures at its plants in Thailand, rare earth bonded magnetic powder for the electronics and automotive markets. Headquartered in Toronto, AMR has approximately 1,000 employees throughout its international operations.

For the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2003, the Company reported sales of $46.9 million versus sales of $47.3 million for the same period last year.Operating income for the 2003 period significantly improved to $1.7 million, compared to an operating loss of $6 million in 2002. Net income for the year was $302,000 or $0.018 per share versus a net loss of $7.3 million or ($0.44) per share. Operating income in 2003 increased by approximately $1.1 million over 2002 after adjusting for the impact of the write-down of certain magnetic assets in 2002 and the re-imbursement of VAT in both years.
AMR reinvested approximately $1.2 million, or 2.6 percent of its 2003 revenue, in research and development activities, up from $714,000 or 1.5 percent of revenue in 2002. The increase in this R&D investment is partly attributable to costs related to the development of a new line of products for the display industry as well as the recently announced consumer product application for nanosized cerium oxide.
The Company's rare earth business unit experienced a year-over-year decline in revenues from $42.4 million in 2002 to $38.1 million in 2003. This was due primarily to a decline in the selling prices and volumes of certain low margin products manufactured by the Company as well as a change in the geographic mix of its revenue with a higher proportion of shipments into the Chinese market in 2003 where selling processes are generally lower.
Sales from the zirconium business unit more than doubled to $4.2 million in 2003 from $1.7 million in 2002. This increase is attributable to AMR's investment in additional sales and marketing resources during the latter half of 2002, which led to further market penetration for the Company's products in U.S. and European markets in 2003.
Sales from the magnetics business unit grew by 45% to $4.6 million in 2003 from $3.2 million in 2002. The increase primarily relates to a 41 percent increase in quantities shipped, reflecting AMR's increased share of the growing magnetic powder market where the Company is one of only two suppliers in the world able to produce commercial quantities at a quality level required by the industry.
mühsam ernährt sich das Eichhörnchen?
Der Wert wird ist unter den großen Institutionellen noch total unbekannt,
Volumen noch sehr niedrig, aber hier wird bald die Musik laut gespielt.
@Kicky In diesem frühen Entwicklungsstadium finden sich kaum Nano-unternehmen
die so früh schon profitabel arbeiten und dazu noch unterbewertet sind.
Andere Nanowerte haben schon jetz einen übertriebenen Börsenwert der nicht
in gesunder Relation zum Umsatz steht, AMR´s Jahresumsatz ist fast doppelt so hoch wie
die MK und das bei profitablem Geschäft, kann nur besser werden.
Noch einen schönen abend

Ich für meinen Teil hoffe, das wir nach der Schliessung des Gaps bei $2,50 vorerst das Ende der Talfahrt gesehen haben. Die Zahlen waren zwar nicht so berauschend, aber doch auch nicht wirklich schlecht. Und vielleicht bringt ja das neue Nano-Material aus Ceroxid (siehe aktuelle Ausgabe des Nanotech-Report) irgendwann den ersehnten Umsatzsprung. Ich bleib vorerst investiert und sehe das ganze eher auf Sicht von 6 - 12 Monaten.
Gruss,

Die Nanotechnologie is ja der Zukunftsmarkt schlechthin und AMR ist schon
jetz sehr gut positioniert.
Die Zahlen unterstreichen das eindeutig.
Wo jetz der Boden ist,keine Ahnung vielleicht so um die 2$CAN obwohl
der Kursrückung ja nich nachhaltig begründet ist, da das Volumen
die letzten Tage extrem niedrig ist.
melde mich auch mal wieder kurz zu Wort! Obwohl die Performance bisher (seit meiner Empfehlung) noch nicht so berauschend war, bin ich weiterhin voll engagiert und überzeugt vom Unternehmen. Schließlich ist es immer schwer, gute UND unentdeckte Werte zu finden....und dies ist zweifelsfrei einer von dieser Sorte...!
