News Release
A Quarterly Update Report on Stockgroup.com Holdings. (OTCBB: SWEB) by Investrend Analyst Sherry Grisewood, CFA
NEW YORK CITY -- May 14, 2001 -- (InvestorWire)A Quarterly Update Report on Stockgroup.com Holdings. (OTCBB: SWEB) by Investrend Analyst Sherry Grisewood, CFA was released today by Investrend Research. Ms. Grisewood maintained her Speculative BUY rating with a target price for SWEB of $5. The report is available at no charge at www.investrend.com/.
Ms. Grisewood noted in her update:
"We are maintaining our Speculative Buy rating on Stockgroup Holdings.com. The Company has made substantial progress in building multiple revenue streams and now possesses the most diverse revenue model of its peers. Since our last update, the Company has demonstrated a clear transition from solely a financial news service and content provider to an innovative financial applications service provider targeting public companies. To reflect these changes, Stockgroup has renamed its principal business segments as Services for Public Companies, E-business, and Tools & Content.
We have revised our financial forecast for 2001 of $.05 (before non-cash interest charges) on revenues of $6.6 million and instituted a preliminary estimate for 2002. The substantial changes in our revised 2001 forecast take into account the effects of a softer economy during the first half of the year, leading to a lower revenue forecast as Stockgroup's target customer, small public companies, deal with the slowdown and constricted capital markets.
Despite the exceedingly difficult market conditions of late and the total collapse of valuations for just about any company having a Web-based business model, we believe that Stockgroup stands out among its peers in its diverse revenue model, technologically advanced products and branded, focused market position. Revenue growth will continue to be driven by turnkey products aimed at corporate clients and operating leverage should begin to become apparent as growth in revenue is spread over the existing, much smaller infrastructure. As these positives unfold, and investor psychology improves, the shares should re-establish upward momentum".
Ms. Grisewood has had extensive experience as a sell side analyst, primarily in small cap stocks, and has worked for such firms as DLJ, and EF Hutton. She has over 15 yrs experience as an independent special situations and small cap analyst, and in addition she has been writing cash & futures market commentary since 1982. In addition, she has performed extensive analysis for investment banking projects and currently has her own practice working on securities analysis. Ms. Grisewood holds a BS degree with Highest Honors from Ramapo College of NJ and is a member of The New York Society of Security Analysts.
