I forgot about this stock till recent move, did some reading on ragingbull.com page and found some info .There is an interview with Paul Metzinger, Pres. of NPCT, on the web, go to www.wallstreetreporter.com, its on the right hand side of page towards the bottom, he talks about technology, and is of course overly optimistic, its worth a listen though if you have the time.
Also got this letter from raging bull, worth a read
Dear Investor to Investor readers:
Paul Metzinger, President and CEO of Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. asked me to pass this message on to all of the shareholders in Nanopierce and Intercell. For this reason, I am posting it on my forums and have asked Kent Kloock to post it on both the Raging Bull forums for NPCT and INCE, since I do not post on them any longer. All of the shareholders in both companies are entitled to read this and you are encouraged to post it to other forums where you might see other shareholders who would be interested in reading it. Or at least direct them to where they can read it.

Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. Shareholders Intercell Corporation Shareholders
Dear Shareholders:
Tomorrow I will begin a trip to Europe on your behalf. I leave with a mind determined and will focused on achieving what is indeed our true purpose- making our NCS technology the standard connection technology for the 21st Century in all electronic applications.
In late December 1998, I promised myself and several other close confidants, that by the end of 1999, I would achieve on the behalf of Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. the following goals:
1. The recognition by the electronics industry that we have a superior connection technology for electronic applications with our NCS connection technology.
2. Establish a Strategic Business Plan focused on achieving Critical Mass.
3. Assemble a highly talented and qualified team to implement the Strategic Business Plan.
4. Identify the largest and most profitable markets for NCS.
5. Implement the penetration of the fastest growing markets, which currently are the smart cards and smart label markets.
6. Obtain financing of at least $5 Million.
7. Have the stock of Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. trading over $4.
Regrettably, I missed number 6 by eleven days. We closed a financing of $4 Million as announced on January 11, 2000, having on December 13, 1999 arranged a $1 Million Interim Financing.
I want this clearly understood by all shareholders, you are the favored recipients of the very personal contributions and efforts of three very special persons: Dr. Herbert J. Neuhuas, Dr. Michael E. Wernle and the Chief Financial Officer of Nanopierce Technologies, Inc., Kristi J. Kampmann. Your benefit from the success of this Company is almost entirely attributable to their exceptional performance as officers. In the ultimate analysis, success and value are always derived from specific personal endeavor and contribution.
With this team, Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. will become the leader with its NCS technology in the fastest growing electronic applications. With our core team, soon to be increased by additional highly qualified team members, we are establishing the structure for success. With each significant development in the operations and in the technology of Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. we are attracting an increasing number of highly qualified and extraordinary competent individuals asking to be part of our team.
Delighted we are with the enthusiasm of our team, embracing our vision and crusade. We are encouraged with our ability to meet the challenge.
We shall not return from our sojourn with empty promises. For the shareholders of Intercell Corporation, upon my return from Europe I intend, without deflecting attention from Nanopierce Technologies, Inc., to recreate and resurrect Intercell Corporation. By the end of the year 2000, it will be an operating company focusing on the ".com" world, well financed, managed by executives of established qualifications and enjoying a market capitalization that will exceed anything in its past history. I do not make empty promises.
This is not a time for timidity. We do not easily challenge the future with all of its uncertainties and unpredictability, but challenge it we shall and we will prevail in our chosen endeavors. Those who wish to join us we welcome to our allegiance. We gratefully receive all the support we can get as we proceed forward. I cannot foresee with prophetic clarity what it will be like or mean to set a technology standard for the rest of the electronics industry to follow, but I have a very creative imagination and even larger visions.
Sincerely,
Paul H. Metzinger President & CEO Nanopierce Technologies, Inc. |
