We get a lot of questions from investors and potential
investors. We do our best to provide
both the required info in our periodic filings with the OTC Markets and annual meetings,
as well as additional information in our corporate website and this blog.
As we have worked to answer those investment-related questions
and educate people on the Company, I finally decided to summarize those
answers. And guess what? Yes, we came up with our own “Top Ten”
reasons to consider an investment in Enable.
I have to apologize in advance if this list seems like we
are bragging. But we have been at this a
while and are proud of our accomplishments and excited about our future, and to
coin an old phrase, if it’s true, is it really bragging? Well, maybe.
I also have to add a disclaimer that I am not trying to sell
you anything, and I am not offering investment advice. I am simply listing the reasons why I think
people might want to consider adding Enable IPC to their portfolio.
Here you go – our “Top Ten”:
1: Revenues. Our revenues have grown, quarter-to-quarter,
for the past five quarters in a row and we expect to continue this trend. By the way, revenues are a somewhat rare
thing in over-the-counter stocks.
2: Profits. Enable is profitable – an even rarer thing in over-the-counter stocks
and, sometimes, profitability can even be difficult to find in some Nasdaq-listed
entities.
3: Longevity. On March 17, 2013, Enable will be 8 years
old. The company has been around a while and should no longer be considered a
“start up”. Enable’s longevity could be
considered an indicator about its future.
4: Low overhead. Enable’s culture is unpretentious. The Company eschews fancy workstations, cool
digs and such. Its overhead is low and
the Company is run with an aim to keep it low.
We are here for the technologies we develop, not fancy offices or
stocked kitchens.
5: Solid market
opportunities. There are some solid market opportunities (yes, plural [opportunities], not singular [opportunity]).
These are in the energy storage and RFID areas, which are solid, stable
markets that are not likely to undergo massive reductions in size anytime soon.
Both of these market segments appear to be on upward-trends.
6. Valid,
real-world technologies. Enable’s
technologies have been validated by both the
markets (e.g., RFID tags that are being sold by major, established
distributors that have historical success and existing market paths) and researchers (e.g., the National Science
Foundation (NSF), who selected the Company’s technology for funding after the
proposal was evaluated by third party, experienced researchers and was part of only
3% of over 1,000 initial proposals). Our
ideas are not pie-in-the-sky stuff; they’re real-world.
7. Undervaluation? Maybe.
Enable’s stated projection is that its sales for the fiscal year ending March
31, 2013 will be about $1.4M (as we mentioned in our annual stockholders’
meeting last August) and, as we’ve stated, we should have no problem hitting
that goal. On January 7, 2013, Enable’s market cap was about $1.35M. It appears the Company might be undervalued
based on its current financial matrix.
8. Experienced
staff. The Company includes a CEO
with over 20 years executive management experience with successful start-ups, a
Chief Scientist also with 20+ years’ experience in the field and over 30
publications to his credit, a Board populated with an extremely high level of
legal, accounting and business expertise and a highly qualified, experienced
and degreed staff. For us, its quality
over quantity.
9. High likelihood
of near-term increasing revenues. In
the next 12 to 18 months, the Company plans to expand its RFID product line as
it completes the NSF project. As this
success builds, revenues stand a good chance of increasing soon (i.e., within
the next one to three years) from the licensing of the new technologies.
10. Great long-term potential. As the
Company finalizes its work with nanoparticles in batteries, and expands into
other related areas, its future potential becomes significant. If one considers just the licensing revenue
possible from the lithium ion battery market (at or approaching $10 billion worldwide in 2013), the potential is huge.
We plan to take these topics, one at a time, over the next
couple months or so and expand on each.
If we think of other reasons, we’ll add them. And, if you
think of other reasons, we’d like to hear those as well.
