12 month price target on NETE of $5.17 per share
Only .14 cents
"Net Element continued to report rapid top line growth in 3Q15, with revenues rising to $12.68mn, up approximately 110% from 3Q14 revenues of $6.03mn. Net Element's 3Q15 revenues consisted of $7.83mn in US transaction processing, $2.80mn in Mobile Payments, and $2.05mn in online payments from PayOnline. During 3Q15, NETE reported EPS of ($0.07), a modest improvement from the year ago period. We note that 3Q15 marked the first full period of results that included PayOnline, a leader in online transaction processing services and payment technology with over 10mn active consumers and thousands of merchants in the Russian Federation, Europe and Asia, according to Net Element. We are maintaining our 12 month price target on NETE of $5.17 per share," stated Ajay Tandon, CEO of SeeThruEquity.
Additional highlights of the note are as follows:
Top line continues to advance
For the first nine months of the year, revenues have climbed to $25.12mn, versus $15.78mn in the comparable period in 2014. The primary driver of the growth has been the expansion of the company's Transaction Processing and Mobile Payments segments, augmented by $2.36mn in revenue from the company's recent acquisition of PayOnline, which provides mobile payment processing of online transactions in emerging markets. Net Element's YTD revenues consisted of $19.28mn in US transaction processing, $3.49mn in Mobile Payments, and $2.36mn in online payments from PayOnline. We note that 3Q15 marked the first full period of results that included PayOnline, a leader in online transaction processing services and payment technology with over 10mn active consumers and thousands of merchants in the Russian Federation, Europe and Asia.
EPS came in at ($0.18) for the first nine months of the year and the company ended the quarter with $0.3mn of cash on hand, with current liabilities of $14.0mn and a working capital deficit of $3.2mn, which includes a $4.0mn warrant liability. As we noted in earlier reports on Net Element, the company has done a reasonable job reducing its debt outstanding. Nevertheless, the company's top line growth has not yet translated to cash flow, and we believe the company will need to raise fresh capital to ease the pressure as it pursues its operations and growth plans.

why is this not falling like a brick? The Q 10 was like a AXE. and this thing is not dead yet?
why not offer a buy out from Suncorporation seems like they could make a large offer or buy out offer I would Like any thoughts to why this is not a option? Or Mobli buying it out like facebook oculus deal.
OK so this my take on this correct me if am wrong. ALSO filed this so they do not have to report freeing up time and money. they are under 300 stock holders. Now what I am not sure on is what effect does it have on current stock holders or new buyers?
Under what circumstances can an issuer suspend its
reporting obligation under Section 15(d)?
An issuer’s reporting obligations under Section 15(d)
are suspended: (i) while an issuer has a class of
securities registered under Section 12; or (ii) if, on the
first day of any fiscal year other than the year in which
the Securities Act registration statement became
effective, there are fewer than 300 record holders of the
class of securities offered under the Securities Act
registration statement.
In addition to the automatic suspension specified in
Section 15(d), Rule 12h-3 permits an issuer to suspend
its Section 15(d) reporting obligation if, at any time, the
issuer:
• is current in its Exchange Act reporting
obligations;
• has (1) fewer than 300 record holders of the
class of securities offered under the Securities
Act registration statement; or (2) fewer than
500 record holders and its assets must not have
exceeded $10 million on the last day of each of
the issuer’s three most recent fiscal years; and
• has not had a Securities Act registration
statement relating to that class of securities
become effective in the fiscal year for which the
issuer seeks to suspend reporting, or has not
had a registration statement that was required
to be updated by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act during the fiscal year for which
the issuer seeks to suspend reporting, and, if
the issuer is relying on the fewer than 500
record holder and $10 million in assets

Resistance .26 cents if we get above this there is a very good chance we will run up to .40 with out any news or anything looks like we are on a slow up swing on my charts we have support level at .20 and strong resistance at .26 cents
we had a Bearish Engulfing candle on nov 19 but on Nov 20 it closed above the close of the day before so I am not thinking there is a trend reversal.
I would feel safe saying we should see the stock open at .2550 or maybe even run up to .26 before the days end.

The Nature of Organoclays
Organoclays are manufactured by modifying bentonite with quaternary amines, a type of surfactant that contains a nitrogen ion. The nitrogen end of the quaternary amine, the hydrophilic end, is positively charged, and ion exchanges onto the clay platelet for sodium or calcium. The amines used are of the long chain type with 12-18 carbon atoms. After some 30 per cent of the clay surface is coated with these amines it becomes hydrophobic and, with certain amines, organophilic.
The main component of organoclay is bentonite, a chemically altered volcanic ash that consists primarily of the clay mineral montmorillonite. The bentonite in its natural state can absorb up to seven times its weight in water, after treatment can absorb only 5 to 10 per cent of its weight in water, but 40 to 70 per cent in oil, grease, and other sparingly-soluble, hydrophobic chlorinated hydrocarbons.
As the organoclay is introduced into water, the quaternary amine is activated and extends perpendicularly off the clay platelets into the water. A chlorine or bromine ion is loosely attached to the carbon chain. Since the sodium ions that were replaced by the nitrogen are positively charged, they bond with the chlorine ion, resulting in sodium salt that is washed away. The result is a neutral surfactant with a solid base, which is the organoclay. The hydrophilic end of the amine dissolves into the oil droplet because "like dissolves like," thus removing that droplet from water. Because the partition reaction takes place "outside" of the clay particle (in contrast to adsorption of oil by carbon, which takes place inside its pores), the organoclay does not foul quickly.
Organophilic clay can function is as a prepolisher to activated carbon, ion exchange resins, and membranes (to prevent fouling), and as a post polisher to oil/water separators, dissolved air flotation (DAF) units, evaporators, membranes, and skimmers. Organophilic clay powder can be a component or the main staple of a flocculent clay powder. They are excellent adsorbers for the removal of oil, surfactants, and solvents, including methyl ethyl ketone, t-butyl alcohol (TBA), and others.
Application
By removing oil and greases at an extremely high volume/wieght ratio, organophilic clays can save an end user fifty per cent or more of operations costs. Organophilic clay may be disposed of through landfilling, fuel blending, asphalt plants, or stabilization. As long as the clay passes the liquid paint filtration test, it can be disposed of in the dumpster of a facility whose contents are landfilled.
Environmental applications of organophilic clays include groundwater cleanup at old disposal sites and underground storage tank sites as well as the treatment of landfill leachates. Industrial applications include air compressors, cooling water, deburring and metal finishing, gas compressors, boiler blow-down, boiler feed water, metal casting, general manufacturing process water, water produced at oil well drilling sites, and stormwater.
Most applications to date have been in groundwater remediation at US Superfund sites, underground storage tank sites, landfill leachate cleanup, and de-watering of contaminated sites during construction.
Western Lithium to Expand Hectatone(TM) Products to Feedstock, Environmental and Industrial Markets
RENO, NEVADA--(Marketwired - June 10, 2015) - Western Lithium USA Corporation ("Western Lithium") (TSX:WLC)(OTCQX:WLCDF) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Hectatone Inc. ("Hectatone™", the "Company") is now a certified vendor with a Fortune 500 industrial group to sell Hectabind products internationally to the animal feed market as mycotoxin binders. The Hectabind products will be manufactured at the Company's new Hectatone™ organoclay facility in Fernley, Nevada. The first shipment of Hectabind product is planned for delivery in June, 2015.
Frank B. Wright, President of Hectatone™, stated that "Hectatone™ continues to innovate to target the entry into established markets for agriculture and industrial applications offering our clay and organoclay based products. In these higher value markets, potentially much larger than the oilfield market, we are planning to deploy products from our Fernley plant, which is now fully operational."
In addition to Hectabind, the Company has been targeting new markets for its clay and organoclay based products:
Hectatone™ is collaborating with a major clay producer on a specialty organophilic clay product for environmental applications. The product will service the existing market to remove organic compounds from industrial wastewater effluent.
The Company's hectorite based Hectagel product is now going through customer qualifications with a major European chemical supplier to be used for industrial applications. If successful, the Company expects to begin shipment in the third quarter of 2015.
The Company is developing high performance clay-based additives for industrial coatings, such as epoxy and alkyd coatings, and is working with distributors to introduce these new products.
During the first quarter of the Hectatone™ plant startup, the Company successfully completed manufacturing campaigns for its organophilic bentonite products B-91 and B-92, and its organophilic sepiolite products RM-99 and RM-100. The Company's B-91 product has now been approved by five drilling service companies, with one company expected to begin field trials. The Company plans to continue qualification of its product line and to manufacture and qualify its other products in the coming months.
Due to the recent downturn in the oilfield drilling market, current inventory of organoclay drilling additives held by energy service companies are being drawn down at a slower pace. Based on Company discussions with industry participants in the oilfield sector, these companies may again commence purchasing new supply starting in the next two quarters. Once the market begins restocking, the Company believes that its logistical cost savings, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, product consistency and one week lead time, will have a tremendous advantage over imported products from China, Africa and Europe.
Hectatone Inc. is also pleased to announce the appointment of Jerry McNamara as Vice President of Operations for Hectatone Inc. Jerry successfully oversaw the recent construction and startup of the Company's Hectatone™ plant. Jerry and his team were instrumental in delivering innovative process improvements to the operation to realize a state-of-the-art facility. Jerry has a manufacturing and business background and was recently involved with the lithium-ion battery sector.
"Our Hectatone™ products are getting recognized by the world's leading energy service and specialty chemical companies," said Jerry McNamara, Vice President Operations for Hectatone Inc. "I am thrilled to be part of a dedicated and experienced team as we bring our new and innovative products to the marketplace."

High value organoclays
With an unusually high active clay content of up to 94%, the hectorite clay-based Hectatone™ is dry processed, unlike more costly wet processed products.
The organoclay is designed to have specific rheological properties allowing for emulsion stability at temperatures above 204 °C, where bentonite-based organoclays begin to fail.
Organoclays are manufactured by applying a tallow-based quaternary amine and soda ash within the interstitial sites of clay platelets for speciality clays such as bentonite, attapulgite, and hectorite.
Organoclay is produced through a series of wet and dry processes using various formulations that require milling, extrusion, and drying techniques to manufacture.
The special clay mineral hectorite is a white, greasy clay mineral belonging to the smectite group of clays. Similar to bentonite clay, it has specific physical properties owing to its particle size, shape and charge that make it act as a rheological modifier.
This permits it to change the viscosity of a fluid and therefore influence its stability and strength.
Hectorite clays are used in a broad spectrum of markets from cosmetics to drilling fluid additives. More recently, hectorite clay products have been used by the directional drilling industry in HPHT environment, owing to hectorite’s inherent high temperature thermal stability.
Several Hectatone™ products are now under development to meet certain specifications for the drilling industry. Hectatone is currently testing and developing various products and expects to have up to six grades on the market.
According to Hectatone, such organoclays typically sell in a range of US$2,000-$4,500/short ton FOB shipping point, depending on properties.
The initial objective in developing the Kings Valley deposit was to exploit its lithium content into a strategic, scalable and reliable source of high quality lithium carbonate. Western Lithium is still pursuing this goal, and is anticipating demand from the increased use of hybrid/electric vehicles.
Well with less than 300 owning the remainder of the shares that might be a good thing for now.
