'analystslie' Thanks for the link! I'm getting anxious to see SQUM's next round of financials. The NRA connection will be another positive in terms of growth IMO

[analystslie]

From below article in Baltimore Sun today concerning Black and Decker new products.

Despite signs that cost pressures and the housing slowdown will continue, Archibald is optimistic about the latter half of this year. He said new products, including a new fingerprint lock technology and an expansion of the DeWalt 36-volt lithium ion cordless power tool line, should boost sales.

I concur.......SQUM is looking better all the time...eom

[heenster]

'should see volume increase/interest/SQUM'....No doubt in my mind on this one. I'm going to add and sit tight. This stock has a very high ceiling when compared to current pps. JMHO.Domestic market will expand as well as overseas market.JV with CJCC will provide new product development and upgrades.JMHO

[analystslie]

I agree. Should see volume/interest in SQUM continue to grow leading into International Home Builders Show which begins February 7 in Orlando.

Epecting Black and Decker to showcase this product in a big way during this event.

[heenster]

'analystslie'...Very nice IMO. I think we will see a steady pace here followed by increase. Squm will catch the interest of new investors and I expect it to pay off nicely JMHO. Plenty of room for growth here! JMHO

[analystslie]

Volume spike in SQUM today.

Maybe this can carryover tomorrow.

BKYI BIO-key Responds to L-1's Revised Proposal to Acquire ComnetiX Inc.
PR Newswire - January 12, 2007 3:54 PM (EDT)
Jump to first matched term

WALL, N.J., Jan 12, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- BIO-key International Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: BKYI), a leader in wireless public safety solutions and finger based biometric identification, responded today to L-1 Identity Solutions' revised proposal to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of ComnetiX Inc. ("ComnetiX") (TSX: CXI) for US $1.05 per share.

Notwithstanding L-1's revised proposal, Bio-key still intends to make an offer to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of ComnetiX on terms previously announced. Bio-key is in the process of finalizing its offer, and securities exchange takeover bid circular, and is on track for mailing this documentation in mid-January as previously targeted. As previously announced, BIO-key will offer common shares of BIO-key for each ComnetiX share at a share exchange ratio to be determined that will value ComnetiX shares at US $1.29 per share, which represents a 65% premium to the closing price for ComnetiX shares on December 20, 2006.

Bio-key believes that its proposed offer to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of ComnetiX is still superior to L-1's revised proposal because of the long-term potential of the combined company. BIO-key believes a combination of the two companies will result in a strong company with the industry's most complete end-to-end solution offering to the law enforcement market and also enable the companies to: share and cross-sell more than 3000 customers; and become a platform company for further business combinations that will uniquely serve the robust and growing state, provincial and local public safety markets.

In addition, Bio-key believes that industry comparables are currently commanding a multiple of 4 to 5x revenue while the L-1 offer for ComnetiX is far below this market range. BIO-key believes that the long-term potential of the combined company should be able to command a premium in accordance with industry comparables.

At this time, Bio-key believes that an exemption from registration under the US federal securities laws is available to it in connection with this transaction.

Full details of the offer will be included in the take-over bid documents to be mailed to ComnetiX shareholders. The offer will be subject to certain conditions that are customary for transactions of this nature including the valid tender and non-withdrawal of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of ComnetiX and receipt of required regulatory approvals.

THis one is worthy of IBOX information.....imo

[sealbent]

BKYI

While the Fire-RMS deal does appear to contain more wireless technology than anything else, this company does provide biometric technology. I will be keeping an eye on Bio-Key, and its recent developments.

"The company's high-performance, scalable, cost-effective and easy-to-deploy biometric finger identification technology accurately identifies and authenticates users of wireless and enterprise data to improve security, convenience and privacy and to reduce identity theft."

http://www.bio-key.com


Interesting recent developments:

- BIO-key Strengthens Balance Sheet; Share Count Reduced Potentially By 9 Million Shares

- BIO-key(R) Announces Additional Contracts for Recently Launched FireRMS Mobile(TM)

- Bio-key International offers to buy Comnetix in deal worth US$18.2 million

These all seem like positives to me. So why are they red today? They just released their 8K... I'm going to go have a look. Please let me know if you've performed any DD on this company.

Here's their chart:

[heenster]

Thanks 'analystslie'. The more I learn about this company the more I like it! REFRESHING to say the least

SQUM Biovault $338.95 Cheapest online price I've found.

http://www.calssportingarmory.com/biovault1.htm

[heenster]

'sealbent'...other way around'....Good point. I think I'll reserve judgement on that possibility.When and IF CKYS releases A/F's and gives a true picture of the amount of product they are selling is the key. JMHO. If ckys proves to be successful in their attempt to brand and fill a niche in the retail market then it would make sense for SQUM to consider a buyout of ckys.However I am skeptical of the numbers ckys has put out for shareholder consumption. JP has overstated the companies progress and accomplishments IMO.At the present time and foreseeable future ckys is a customer of SQUM's...nothing more...nothing less.JMHO. As far as ckys buying SQUM...I think you're being kind when stating it as a longshot.CKYS and Mr. Plant need to get their act together and are in no position to buy anything except airtime and tout sheet exposure using shares as currency. JMHO

[sealbent]

I tend to agree with you heenster that it seems like a longshot for CKYS to buy SQUM... but what about the other way around? Although not sure what CKYS has to offer SQUM... just a thought.

[madmax6]

point taken..next

[madmax6]

that's your opinion and you're entitled to it...my opinion is that the order they placed with SQUM is to fill an order that has already been placed...we'll see soon, I'll take the over $2 million bet any day...

[heenster]

'AS long as they get paid' I agree with the getting paid part. As to CKYS buying out SQUM.....LOL. JP and ckys can't even get branding right! Nobody associated with ckys has the ability to take on the day to day activities of manufacturing or research. Ckys is a MESS right now...SQUM is moving forward. JP can't afford to pay attention let alone buy SQUM.Look for CKYS to pull off a BS merger/buyout of another turd. JMHO. There is substance to and behind SQUM...CKYS has neither at this point.JMHO.

[gabeh]

I have a large holding and SQUM and don't want their name to be associated with the likes of Cyber.

[gabeh]

An overreaction on my part to the nonsense that CK appears to be. I don't believe they'll be able sell $2 million worth or product in any case.

[heenster]

'gabeh'.....SQUM certainly has developed relationships with companies that are proven entities and these relationships will carry SQUM forward.JMHO. Check out Fulcrum Biometrics.....they are a solid entity to say the least.I have spoken to a sales rep. from Fulcrum Biometrics and he spoke highly of SQUM and the products Fulcrum offers from SQUM. The 2 main reasons Fulcrum chose SQUM as a partner were state of the art technology behind the products and the price point. Companies are judged by the company they keep.Call Fulcrum...1-800-430-4601...They are professional and REAL.CJCC is real. Whether or not CKYS disappears is not a big deal when looking to what the future prospects of SQUM.JMHO

[madmax6]

heen, SQUM shareholders shouldn't worry about any association as long as they are being paid for their services...as for the rumors of a CKYS buyout of SQUM, I wouldn't hold my breath...but it's not as far fetched as many may think imo..

[heenster]

Madmax6.....We agree on this issue! The more the merrier when it comes to sales! I think some are leery of any association with CKYS at this point. It seems some posters on other boards have suggested a scenerio where CKYS acquires SQUM and this has SQUM shareholders on edge. SQUM shareholders should rest easy.....CKYS's fate will not determine SQUM's future one iota. JMHO

[madmax6]

why would they cut them off after they place a 2+ million dollar order with them...as long as they pay them, how can you honestly complain as a SQUM shareholder?

[gabeh]

CK is a pipsqeak that probably won't be around in a year.

They have nothing going for them but a PR machine and it's running out of steam.

I wish SQ would cut its ties to them if there are any ties left.

[heenster]

SQUM....anyone thinking that SQUM being successful is hinging on the well being of CKYS should click this link below. http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_pwwi/is_200609/ai_n16705060 This clearly shows SQUM partnering up with bigger fish. CJCC is a HUGE company and thinks highly of SQUM.JMHO SQUM lists CKYS as a reseller...nothing more.....nothing less. JMHO

[sealbent]

Alright! Not even ordering off the dollar menu... sweet!

[heenster]

Okay.....BigMacs for everyone!
