On a tree high in the mountains of the rain forest in central Borneo, I found this:
OTCBB: TRKN
Share information:
O/S: 94M
Public Float: 44M
Trikon Technologies is and has been for years a fully reporting company. The stock came by way of a technical scan and a rumor which I won't mention. I think the company has enough going for it without any rumors. The stock has a big float, but then so does many OTCBB stocks which have moved higher and higher over time. Obviously this is not a traders stock but a longer term hold.... Although real volume will pop the stock .08 to .10...
The company earned +.02 last quarter.

From the last NR:
" NEWPORT, Wales, United Kingdom September 13, 1999 --Trikon Technologies Inc. (OTC-BB:TRKN) announced today that they had received orders for systems from a major US corporation covering three technologies: PVD, CVD and plasma etch . These will be used in a facility making high frequency devices for wireless communications.
"These orders are significant to Trikon" commented Scott Brown, VP of North American Sales, "as they are a new customer for us and these orders confirm our ability to excel across three interconnect technologies; metal and dielectric deposition and plasma etching. We demonstrated integration advantages and cost savings of using our three technologies together, as well as the benefits of our local service and support."
" Wireless devices are the fastest growing semiconductor segment due to the rapid take up of mobile phones and inclusion of wireless capability in consumer electronics products."

Other odds and ends: Some insiders sold stock on last runup (.47)? small amounts when compared to what they are still holding.
