I've been out of town for a few days, and all I can say about KAZ is "WOW!!!" I don't remember more than 2 or 3 of my investments looking quite like this one so soon after going public. These guys have my respect.

I hear Willie Nelson singing in the background, "nothing but blue skies, nothing but blue skies...."

tty'all later.

The company has developed a revolutionary line of snowboards, goggles, ski poles and bindings that utilize electronic devices, incorporate state of the art technology and represent quantum advances beyond any products offered by KAZ's competitors.

First wins the marketing game. The product is unique.

Although its line of snowboards cover the complete range of prices and abilities, much of the company sales and marketing efforts are focused on getting product into nationwide retail outlets such as Target, Wal-Mart Sports Authority, Gart Sports, etc.

A unique product targeted at the mass market, that is very smart marketing.

We believe that KAZ is on track with this strategy, and will be successful in tapping into the vast numbers of people interested in snowboarding, but who have been turned off by the high prices of equipment.

This type of target marketing will be very profitable to the company. All highly successful car dealers sell Chevy's as well as the top end Cadillac, there are more potential Chevy customers smart move on the part of KAZ.

Scheduled for introduction during the 2000 / 2001 winter season, KAZ's Talon motor-driven, retractable ski poles will be a premium product with no competition.

The company is not prepared to rest on their laurels, they are already planning a new product launch for the year 2000 and 2001 season. This will ensure an increase in sales.

Kazz Industries is also developing the Synergy line of downhill ski bindings, which will be the first electronically-controlled bindings. Scheduled for introduction in 2002, the Synergy bindings will have all of the safety features of conventional bindings with the addition of an easy-to-use, electronically controlled and ergonomically-friendly entrance and exit mechanism. KAZ will be competing with the leading ski binding manufacturers (Marker, Salomon, Tyrolia and Look), who offer bindings with manual step-in / step-out heel pieces.

Another new product for the year 2002, excellant potential, a further sales increse in the 3rd. year of operation.

David, Vector goggles and the Capital structure next posts.

regards
john

CAPITAL STRUCTURE & TRADING RANGE (as of July 23, 1999)
Issued & Outstanding (fully-diluted): ~ 8.1 million shares
Est'd Float: ~ 1 million shares
1999 Trading Range: Cdn$0.25 (low) by Cdn$2.10 (high)


Nice increase in shareholder value.


Founded in 1994, Kazz Industries reported total revenues of about US$1 million in 1998, its first year of test marketing and limited sales of beta products.

The first five years seem to be behind them, those are very critical years in a start up operation.

For the current fiscal year, KAZ projects total sales of about US$2.4 million and net earnings (before taxes) of about US$200,000. With the planned North American roll-out of its full line of snowboards this coming winter and a full-press marketing / sales campaign, the company's pro forma financials project a big increase in sales (US$10.05 million) in FY 2000, and significant pre-tax income (est'd @ US$3.49 million or US$0.43 / share).

.43 cents US earnings, well 10x, PE is 4.30 US dollar share price Canadian $6.45, seems to be good potential for significant gains for shareholders.

Projections for FY 2001 look even better, based on the introduction of the Vector goggles and Talon ski poles during the 2000 / 2001 winter season; KAZ is projecting sales of over US$23 million, and estimated pre-tax earnings of US$7.29 million (US$0.90 / share).

At a ten times PE that is $13.50 per share Canadian green backs I look forward to seeing further news re this company.

Another thought, at .90 cents per share profit US with 8.1 million shares outstanding "KAZ" the profit per share is only 65 cents less then the share price, in Canuck dollars of course.

I wish I had of listened to Jim B at the 1.20 level instead of the $1.60 level but I am in for the ride.

Good luck KAZ management in the execution of your marketing plans.
