echt ein cooler stock :-)

mit Krediten??und schon wieder sone fragwürdige Batterie,für die es nur nen Abnehmer in China gibt...ich vermute eigentlich,dass du sie schon vorher gekauft hast und heute verkauft hast,denn nachbörslich lief da ja nix .Und wieso erwähnst du den Report von heute nicht???www.pinksheets.com/quote/news.jsp?symbol=VLNC      daraus:    

$2.1 million available under a loan agreement with Berg & Berg and $25.0 million
available under an equity line of credit financing commitment with Berg & Berg. Currently, the Company does not have material sales. Consequently, the Company is dependent on Berg & Berg's continued willingness to fund its continued operations. Under the equity line of financing commitment Berg & Berg has the contractual right to reduce the remaining availability under the line from $25 million to $8.5 million. Further, the commitment expires on March 31, 2004 and Company's right to draw down on the line is limited to $5 million per quarter and is further dependent upon meeting certain operating conditions.
Assuming Berg & Berg continues to fund the operations of the Company at the rate of $5 million per quarter, the Company expects to have sufficient financing through the next twelve months to meet its working capital, capital expenditure and investment requirements. However, if Berg & Berg were to exercise its right to reduce the amounts under the equity line of credit to $8.5 million or if the Company were not able to satisfy the conditions to funding under that line in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company would exhaust its existing sources of liquidity. In such a case, the Company's ability to continue its operations would be dependent on arranging for additional equity or debt financing, which, given the current equity and debt markets, could be difficult to arrange.

3. FINANCING:
On April 9, 2002, the Company sold 6.122 million shares in a new issuance of common stock to a select group of institutional investors, at a price of $2.70 per share. A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc. and Wm Smith Securities, Incorporated served as placement agents for the offering. The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $15.2 million in the transaction. Proceeds from the financing were used for working capital purposes.
On September 30, 2002, the Company drew down $5.0 million from its equity line of credit financing commitment from Berg & Berg and issued approximately 9.5 million shares of the Company's common stock (See Note 2, Liquidity and Capital Resources).
In October 2001, the Company entered into a loan agreement ("2001 Loan") with Berg & Berg. Under the terms of the agreement, Berg & Berg agreed to advance the Company funds of up to $20 million between the date of the agreement and September 30, 2003. Interest on the 2001 Loan accrues at 8.0% per annum!!!, payable from time to time, and all outstanding amounts with respect to the loans are due and payable on September 30, 2005. As of September 30, 2002, a total of $19,036,000 had been drawn on the 2001 Loan. On June 21, 2002, Berg & Berg agreed to reduce the principal amount of the 2001 loan by $1,106,705,
On November 8, 2002 the Company and Berg & Berg amended an affirmative covenant in the agreement to acknowledge the Nasdaq SmallCap Market as an acceptable market for the listing of the Company's Common Stock. Borrowings on the 2001 Loan, net of the repayment, as of September 30, 2002, were $17,929,000. In conjunction with the 2001 Loan, Berg & Berg received a warrant to purchase 1,402,743 shares of the Company's common stock at the price of $3.208 per share. The warrants were exercisable beginning on the date they were issued and expire on August 30, 2005. The fair value assigned to these warrants, totaling approximately $2,768,000, has been reflected as additional consideration for the debt financing, recorded as a discount on the debt and accreted as interest expense, amortized over the life of the loan.
Founded in 1989, our business has been driven primarily by our research and development efforts, which have fostered our intellectual property position, currently consisting of 722 issued and pending patents, including 254 patents issued in the United States. Since our inception, we have been focused on acquiring and developing our technology, developing our manufacturing capabilities, recruiting personnel, establishing our sales channels and pipeline and acquiring capital.
We introduced the N-Charge(TM) Power System, our first end-user product in February 2002. We must develop reliable sales channels for distribution of our N-Charge(TM) product and any future end-user products. If our N-Charge(TM) product is not commercially accepted, our results of operations will be adversely affected. In addition, failure to develop effective sales channels will significantly impact our future revenue and profitability.
OUR FAILURE TO DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER BATTERY MANUFACTURERS WILL LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO WIDELY INTRODUCE OUR PHOSPHATE CHEMISTRY TECHNOLOGY INTO THE MARKETPLACE AND COULD SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT OUR SALES AND PROFITABILITY IN FUTURE PERIODS.
The Company reported a net loss of $9.6 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $260,000 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2003. These results compare to a net loss of $9.7 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $509,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2003, and a net loss of $10.1 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $527,000 in the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2001.

1) Die Geschichte des Notebooks ist auch eine der Energieversorgung, wer kennt nicht
den Werdegang vom Nickel-Cadmium Akku zum Lithium-Ionen Akku. Valence hat 230 angemeldete Patente rund um eine Weiterentwicklung des Lithium-Ionen Akkus, deren Weiterentwicklung ist ein Fortschritt.

2) Der Kunde in Asien ist kein kleiner Krauter, sondern Wistron Corporation, eine 100% ige Acer Tochter mit 9400 Mitarbeitern.

3) Der Kursanstieg kam kurz vor und auch nach! den Quartalszahlen, die am 14.11.02 veröffentlicht wurden. Einen kleinen Auszug daraus hat Kicky veröffentlicht.
Sicherlich konnte Valence nur durch Venture-Kapitlal von Berg+Berg in der Vergangenheit überleben, was aber für kleine Technology Companies nicht so verwunderlich ist.
Die letzten Shares wurden von Berg+Berg zu 2,80 gezeichnet.

Wer Freitags 10% steigt, so wie meine schnuckeligen Valence, hat auch ne gute neue Woche vor sich, da bin ich doch sehr zuversichtlich.

Nächste Woche hoffentlich über 2 Dollar.

Handelsvolumen im Schnitt sehr gering, nur 290,000 shares !
Sieht mir stark nach einer Kursmanipulierung aus.
An Gewinnmitnahme denken, 50% sollten ausreichen, oder ?

Ich verkaufe keine Pferdchen die gut laufen.
Ich hab nie verstanden, warum Du AMD so früh abgestossen hast.
Ausserdem sehe ich fundamentale Gründe, warum Valence gut läuft, keine Kursmanipulierung.

Stox, immer schön die Pferdchen laufen lassen.

Doc, was meinste, sieht immer besser aus, woll?
Ich kaufe ungern nach, deshalb hab ich nicht nachgefasst.
Über 2,25 sieht die Sache schon anders aus, da hol ich mir noch welche.

Ich hätte ja das SL nachgezogen, aber die Spielregeln erlauben das ja nicht. Also bis Freitag ist Daumendrücken angesagt.

Gruss E.

Da gabs ja einige News in letzter Zeit - sieht nach wie vor gut aus.

Doc, und, what have you done?

Gruss E.

Das hat dann wohl zum Ausbruch beigetragen. Ich übrigens bin seit Anfang der Woche zu 2,5$ dabei, wie auch bei DOCC - danke für den Tip!

Schon über eine Million Shares gehandelt - das Fünffache des normalen Umsatzes. Übrigens 7,7% des Freefloat ist short(3,3 Mio Shares).

Geteilte Freude ist doppelte Freude. Ich hatte vermutet, dass Du VLNC privat seit 1,70 hast, weil Du Sie im Depotwettbewerb für 1,70 reingelegt hattest.
Wir werden auch noch bei TEN die 4 Dollar sehen, I`m  sure. Da kannste den Chart von FTUS drüberlegen, eineiige Zwillinge. Ich bin neben DOCC und OPSW bei SNCI (nicht SNIC) gut im Plus, gekauft für 2,35 ohne zu posten, bei SANG bin ich vor einer Woche eingestiegen, bei SLXP bin ich 60% vorne, bei UBET gut im Rennen, MSN hab ich noch, heute HGR eingekauft, vorgestern MDR für eine Woche, nix langfristiges, hatte ich geschrieben.
Mein bester 2 Tageszock war WFHC diese Woche, gekauft für 0,63 und weg für 0,97.
APWR hab ich heute mit Verlust verkauft, hatte ne kleine Zockposition für 3,05, die aktuellen Rechtsstreitigkeiten machen aber einen Anstieg wohl unmöglich. Bernd aus Kulmbach hatte Astropower in sein langfristiges Musterdepot neben Siemens gelegt vor ca. 3 Jahren, beide zu Kursen um 160, deswegen hab ich APWR nie aus den Augen verloren und nen Zock bei 3 Dollar erhofft.
Egal, und tschüss, weg mit Dreck.
Und, und.. völliges Neuland für mich, einen Call auf JNPR. Wenn JNPR über 12 geht, sollte der Call mindestens 100% gemacht haben.
Wärend der Blasenzeit vor 3 Jahren hatte ich JNPR für 180 Dollar gekauft, das waren noch Zeiten.
Ist doch Network-Time, wie siehst Du es langfristig? SONS spitze, Foundry spitze, JNPR bitte über 12 Dollar in 6 Wochen, der Chart gibt es mit den aktuellen Zahlen her, dann hab ich fett Kohle mit dem Call gescheffelt.
Die RSTN Aktie kauf ich wieder unter 1,30, falls es welche gibt, immer für nen 3 Tageszock gut.
Komischerweise finde ich meinen TALK America Thread nicht wieder, ich wollte ihn noch mal aufwärmen, denn ich hab als Erster über TALK in Deutschland geschrieben, da bin ich mir ziemlich sicher.
Liest Du Dir den Kram von dem Neuen Quadsan durch? Is ja mal nen neuer lustiger Vogel ins Board geflattert. CTCH hab ich mir in die WL gesetzt.
So, jetz muss ich schlafen, und zeig was Du kannst, bin auf Dein 3 Wochen Depot gespannt. Die Auswertung der letzten Runde gibst erst Sonntag, heute hab ich keine Zeit mehr, der Samstag ist voll verplant.

Gruss E.

Ich hatte ja geschrieben, dass ich das Depot fast komplett geräumt hatte, da ich nicht mit einem schnellen Kriegsende rechnete.
So sind auch TEN und MSN rausgeflogen...
Ansonsten war gestern der beste Tag seit langem. Außer DIGE alles schön im grünen Bereich, z.T. zweistellig. Aber Gewinne sinds ja erst, wenn verkauft ist.
Es ist weiter Stockpicking angesagt. Kein Wunder bei dem Cash der an der Seitenlinie liegt. Auch die Vermögensverwalter/Fondmanager halten nach Werten Ausschau, die bessere Zahlen präsentieren, gute Perspektiven oder schlicht gute Reboundchancen haben.
Mal sehen, ob das Schema auch weiterhin funktioniert, wenn wir langsam in die traditionell schwächeren Monate kommen.
Da die Shortquote aber allgemein immer noch sehr hoch sein dürfte, werden wir wohl immer wieder einen "Homerun" erleben, sobald eine Firma positiv überrascht.

Valence Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End Results  
       THURSDAY, JUNE 26, 2003 10:01 AM
- BusinessWire

AUSTIN, Texas, Jun 26, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Valence Technology, Inc. (VLNC) , a leader in the development and commercialization of Saphion(TM) technology and Lithium-ion polymer rechargeable batteries, today reported fourth quarter and year-end financial results for its fiscal year 2003 ended March 31, 2003.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, the Company reported revenue of $2.6 million, compared with $4.9 million in fiscal year 2002. The Company reported a net loss of $37.9 million, or $0.65 per basic and diluted share, an improvement over a net loss of $69.6 million, or $1.53 per basic and diluted share in fiscal year 2002.

"Fiscal 2003 has been marked by strong execution and significant accomplishments," stated Stephan Godevais, chairman and CEO of Valence. "Just over two years ago, we were solely a research and development company. Today, we are a company with a proven, new technology, relevant products and solid customer relationships. We have a tremendous opportunity ahead of us, and we look forward to pursuing it aggressively."

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 revenue was $1.2 million, up from $638,000 in the third quarter of 2003, and up from $386,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002. N-Charge(TM) sales represented 30 percent of total revenue and increased 38 percent over the third quarter. The Company reported a net loss of $10.1 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, in the fourth quarter versus a net loss of $8.6 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2003, and a net loss of $8.2 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002.

Consolidated gross margin for the first quarter of 2003 was $3.2 million, an improvement of more than $2.2 million over the same quarter a year ago. Higher primary battery sales volumes, partially offset by ramp-up costs associated with the rapid growth in production levels, resulted in the gross margin increase.

The Company achieved operating income of $0.6 million compared to an operating loss of $2.1 million a year earlier. This progress resulted from the improvement in gross margins, as well as lower research and development costs attributable to the Company's rechargeable operations.

Net income for the quarter ended March 29, 2003 was $0.3 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.8 million, or $0.23 per share in the same three-month period last year

Tschüss für heute.

Ultralife Batteries, Inc. Receives $3.1 Million Contract from the US Military to Expand Battery Production Capability Additional Equipment Positions Ultralife to More Than Double BA-5390 Battery Manufacturing Capability  


NEWARK, N.Y., Sep 24, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Ultralife Batteries, Inc.
(NASDAQ: ULBI) has signed a contract with the U.S. Department of the Army -
Communications and Electronics Command (CECOM) whereby Ultralife will receive
$3.1 million to purchase on behalf of CECOM, manufacturing equipment to expand
the company's BA-5390 lithium-manganese dioxide battery manufacturing capability
at its Newark, New York factory. The company expects to complete the equipment
purchase and installation by February 2004.

After completing the equipment installation, Ultralife expects to have the
capability to produce revenue of more than $9 million per month of its BA-5390
batteries as new orders are received. This capability represents more than
double the company's BA-5390 manufacturing capability during the second quarter
of 2003.

"Ultralife is pursuing a diverse set of long-term growth opportunities, one of
which is to capitalize on the US military's conversion from lithium-sulfur
dioxide to lithium-manganese dioxide batteries," said John Kavazanjian,
Ultralife's president and chief executive officer. "The addition of this
equipment positions Ultralife for a new level of production readiness to meet
the military's growing demand for BA-5390 batteries."

Joseph N. Barrella, Ultralife's senior vice president of new business
development, added, "We are extremely pleased to support the military's
increasing demand for high-energy, long-lasting lithium-manganese dioxide
batteries. According to CECOM, the US military has an urgent need for Ultralife
to increase its production capability for our BA-5390 batteries. We believe this
equipment contract underscores the US military's recognition of the superior
performance and high quality of our batteries and strengthens our company's
position as the major supplier of this much needed battery."

The BA-5390 is a lithium-manganese dioxide primary (non-rechargeable) battery,
and with 50 percent more energy, is an alternative to the lithium-sulfur dioxide
BA-5590 battery, the most widely used military battery in the US Armed Forces.
The BA-5390 is widely used to power more than 50 military applications and
provides soldiers with the latest and best battery technology in a cost
effective manner.
