Lets start with a link to the News releases. Next will be an examination of what they say, Pr by PR.

Examination of 7/14 PR by dd_digger My comments will be interjected in italics, the balance is from the Company Release. Points of special interest IMO are in bold. Lets take a closer look.
SPOKANE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 14, 2000--Norad, Corporation, a privately held corporation, specializing in the consolidation of environmentally related businesses, today announced, it has entered into a merger agreement with Semper Resources, Inc. a publicly traded company currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol SRCR. This is self explanatory. A private company has become public. WHY? Possibly to raise capital to take on some interesting projects? Usually happens that way. Norad, Corporation, founded in 1998, has spent the last 2 years developing a strategic technology IESCRETE(TM), a proprietary chemistry for the treatment of contaminated soil and stabilization, as well as innovating and perfecting its unique consolidation program.
"The announcement of this merger marks an exciting time for Norad," says Mr. Galen Dean Loven, PhD, Norad President and CEO, and an expert on Contamination Processing Techniques. "By leveraging our cutting edge treatment services, we will enable Norad to jump to the forefront of cost efficient, contaminated soil solidification and stabilization. Norad will be providing cutting edge treatment services as the United States begins to approach environmental remediation with a recycling perspective similar to European developments." Now how would a company leverage their services. Maybe by joining forces with some other companies. Can you say acquisition? How does a company jump to the forefront. Correct, by making themselves larger and higher profile.
Norad has expanded its operations through the acquisition of a newly permitted remediation facility in Bakersfield, CA. This highly strategic location processes oil-contaminated soils using advanced bio remediation technologies, recycling the toxic soils into clean, reusable soil. This acquisition typifies both Norad's commitment to developing remediation processes and technologies capable of recycling and the ability of the company to acquire well-positioned environmental operations. The Bakersfield facility has the capacity to grow to $10,000,000 a year in revenues. As I speculate above, they already are showing they expand via acquisition. They are currently located in the right location. Possibly other prime locations can be added through acquisition. Nice statement made about recycling the contaminated soil into clean, reusable soil. Very Politically Correct and very much needed service. Again toward the end of the paragraph they refer to acquisitions. Then the killer statement to finish it up. Capacity to grow to $10,000,000 / year revenues. That is huge IMO.
From the 8/3 Release (an analysis) by dd_digger My comments will be interjected in italics, the balance is from the Company Release. Points of special interest IMO are in bold.
SPOKANE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 3, 2000--Semper Resources,Inc., (OTCBB:SRCR) announced today that it has finalized the definitive agreements for the acquisition of Washington-based NORAD,Inc., a privately held corporation, specializing in the consolidation of environmentally related businesses, The transaction has been agreed upon with control of Norad already tendered to Semper. Final closing and filing Form 8K will be timed to completion of Norad's June 30 year end audit. To take advantage of immediate acquisition opportunities Norad has agreed to allow Semper immediate access to its industry consolidation strategy. Semper will implement aggressive action to bring the potential of Norad's program to the Company.
Great The company has announced they have finalized the merger agreement. Groundwork is now being laid to do their thing. The legal crap is finalized. What are they saying “specializing in the consolidation of environmentally related businesses” for sounds like the plan to expand, we already have seen that. Now they are repeating the point. The company is establishing they are willing to commit to a date, buy the way they already met, per the next PR. There are telling us they are going to do what they say, and back it up with fact. What’s the IMMEDIATE ACCESS statement for. Remember these words are chosen very carefully. That to me sounds like something is coming soon. Now here they go again with “IMPLEMENT AGGRESSIVE ACTION”. Giving us something to think about for sure.
Norad, Inc., founded in 1998, has spent the last 2 years developing a strategic technology IESCRETE(TM), a proprietary chemistry for the treatment of contaminated soil and stabilization, as well as innovating and perfecting its unique consolidation program. IESCRETE(TM) is a proprietary chemistry for contaminated soil solidification and stabilization. This process binds toxins and surrounding soils into a hard, cement like product which is safe and suitable for reuse in applications such as road bases. The recycling potential of IESCRETE(TM), and its cost efficiency, makes it a product of the future as the United States begins to approach environmental remediation with a recycling perspective similar to European developments. IESCRETE(TM) is also highly effective in other applications such as closing and capping mine tailings. In a recently completed EPA sponsored one-year test of technologies available for in place mine tailings capping, IESCRETE(TM) was identified as the most effective and inexpensive process. Norad expects the potential for this product to expand exponentially over the next 5 years.
I like it when a company has something “PROPRIETARY. Product is safe and reuseable, that’s a great thing. Whoa, this process is blessed by the EPA. I smell contracts coming.
"Completion of this transaction will mark an exciting time for NORAD," said Mr. Galen Loven, President and CEO. "By leveraging our contamination services, we will enable the Company to jump to the forefront of environmental remediation, and are setting the standard by which future environmental applications will be measured."
Completion is a great word for finalization of a deal. Sure hope they are exciting times. We also are hearing this leveraging concept in the 2nd PR. love those trend setters.
Speight & Associates, Inc. privatelabelshells.com) a Florida based management-consulting group, specializing in mergers, acquisitions, and corporate funding, were involved in structuring & facilitating the transaction.
Pay attention to what this company that put all this together specializes in.
I always like to review the series of PR’s a company outs out. What are they driving home? They repeat acquisition, and leveraging so far. Sounds good to me. Also they are concentrating on the environmentally friendly aspect of the service. And top it off with an EPA blessing. This is getting more exciting as I go.
From the 8/7 Release (an analysis) by dd_digger My comments will be interjected in italics, the balance is from the Company Release. Points of special interest IMO are in bold.
SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 7, 2000--Semper Resources Inc. (OTCBB:SRCR) today announced that effective immediately, it has appointed Dr. Galen Dean Loven as president and chief executive officer.
Notice now that the releases are coming from Santa Monica as opposed to Spokane for the earlier releases. Always like words like immediate.
The appointment of Loven to this position signals the initiation of the Norad Corp. consolidation strategy through Semper. Loven is the CEO of Norad and was the creator of this unique and compelling strategy to roll up key sectors of environmentally related industries. Semper is currently completing its acquisition of Norad.
The process has started, and the company repeats the concept of consolidation strategy. I have got to keep thinking acquisitions are in the works for us when statements like “unique and compelling strategy to roll up key sectors of environmentally related industries” are made.
Loven is well suited to this position, with a background that includes venture capital, business ownership and more than a decade's experience as a consultant specializing in complex succession planning and transfer of ownership for closely held businesses.
Dr. Lovens background is compelling. Sure falls in line with what I have been speculating about coming acquisitions.
"Management of Norad and Semper were compelled to accelerate activities to enable the companies to capitalize upon immediate roll-up opportunities," remarked Loven.
What is this “immediate roll-up opportunity” they keep referring to. Bet we are going to find out soon.
"Assuming operating control of Semper will allow us to move forward rapidly and not lose certain windows of opportunity. I expect the next few months, if not years, to be extremely active times for us as we build Semper into a vibrant and innovate provider of advanced services and technologies throughout all sectors of our living environment."
Again I have to think things are about to unfold for us with statements like “forward rapidly” ans “windows of opportunity”. Why are they now referring to “technologies throughout all sectors of our living environment”. I thought this was all about treating contaminated soil? Is there something else coming into the picture also that they haven’t mentioned yet, but teasing us with now?
This is getting very interesting. More to follow.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 10, 2000--Semper Resources Corp. (OTCBB:SRCR), specializing in the consolidation of environmentally related businesses, today announced it has entered into a funding agreement with an investment banking firm for $1,000,000.
Look what they say is the specialty of the company. Semper has a funding agreement with an investment banking firm. Not just some guy with bucks. The agreement is with an investment banking firm.
Galen Loven, president and CEO of Semper, commented: "This funding will help us expand our vision and move forward more aggressively to achieve our broader goals. This initial round of funding is a testament to the quality of our roll-up strategy. We are delighted to have this commitment that provides the platform for further important developments including the pursuit of several attractive opportunities in the burgeoning environmental market."
They again mention about expanding and moving forward aggressively to achieve broader goals. WOW, “Initial round of funding”, that means more coming. These guys won’t be strapped for cash. Again they mention about further developments and now say several attractive opportunities.
Speight & Associates Inc., a Florida-based management-consulting group, specializing in mergers, acquisitions and corporate funding, was involved in structuring and facilitating the transaction.
There is that acquisition word again.
