Will This Tiny Nasdaq Company Turn Out To Be The Next Microsoft Or Intel?, Asks GHLstockalert
OCALA, Fla., June 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Semiconductor Laser International Corporation (Nasdaq: SLIC - news) was chosen today as the most likely small company to emerge as the next Microsoft or Intel.

May 20-22, 1997: The company exhibits six new products at the CLEO Show in the Baltimore Convention Center. All products are in the area of aluminum-free high power semiconductor lasers which, according to CEO Dr. Geoffrey T.

June 19, 1997: SLIC is awarded a Phase I contract from the Defense Special Weapons Agency of the Department of Defense.

June 20, 1997: SLIC receives exclusive license from Northwestern University to develop, manufacture, market and sell aluminum-free high power semiconductor lasers worldwide. SLIC is also awarded a two year contract by the U.S. Air Force Phillips Laboratory to provide state-of-the-art semiconductor laser fabrication technology.

July 8, 1997: SLIC signs agreement with Optilas, Ltd., and Optilas GHGH which, as stated by CEO Burham, will enable the company to ''obtain the exposure necessary to secure market share in the European community as we approach the next century.''

September 29, 1997: SLIC announces development of high-power red laser diodes which opens door for the company to become a major supplier in the rapidly expanding optical storage market including DVD.

October 6, 1997: Company announces introduction of new 30 watt high power fiber coupled diode laser. March 11, 1998: SLIC announces development of world's most efficient high power semiconductor laser operating at room temperature.

March 31, 1998: Reported revenue for the quarter ending March 31, 1998 is 70% higher over revenues for the fourth quarter of 1997.

June 8, 1998: SLIC has largest sales month in company history.

June 18, 1998: GHLstockalert, which has no personal or business connection whatsoever to Semiconductor Laser International or any other publicly traded company, announces SLIC as the most likely Nasdaq small cap to experience rapid, exponential growth.

Is there any reason not to invest in this company? Yes. According to GHLstockalert, ''We could be wrong!''

whale securities in my (OPINION) has underwritten a LOT of lousy deals... Im currently seeking legal comp. because my whale representative put me into all their issues despite the fact that at the time I was new to investing.

Well anyhow- much wiser now, countless hours reading and learning TA, and now more then ever im annoyed with the 'crap' they bring public and the representatives they have working for them.<<


SLIC looks ok, Joe. They just did a private offering at .75/share, you know--1.6M shares, so there could be a good bit of selling if the shares were not restricted. I don't know if the Yahoo share count below includes this PP. But they have at least doubled and possibly tripled their share count in the last year alone. However, they do appear to be fairly stable financially. Although they are losing money, they are losing less and revenues are incleasing very nicely. Comparisons for the next Q should be very favorable, and show a gain of at least 60% over the previous Q.

For the three months ended 3/31/98, revenues increased from $0 to $258 thousand. Laser International Corporation announced May sales of $167,100, its largest reported single month's sales since inception.

The record sales seen in May, together with the total sales for April 1998 of $140,900, represents the highest two consecutive months combined total sales to date. In addition, April and May's combined sales of $308,000 have already surpassed all previously reported quarterly sales, including the first quarter of 1998, which is currently the largest quarterly sales to date for SLI ($257,000).

Finally, there are warrants, SLICW exp. 3/19/00, strike, 5.00, if the price of the stock stays above 7.50 for 30 days the co. can redeem them for .10. Last price on the warrants was 5/16 by 3/8.
