Yes! NVXE is looking great! TEXN is another one just picked by Stockpicks1. I hope it does just as well, Maybe even better! Stock Picks1.com Report OTC:BB TEXN Our newest profile is 21st Century Technologies, Inc. (OTC:BB: TEXN), a company with amazing potential. TEXN is profitable, with zero debt, highly competent management and with several products that will catapult earnings dramatically higher. All this and the stock trades in the $0.13-$0.15 range. An absolute steal. Because of a such a cheap share price coupled with an enormous upside potential, our analysts believe TEXN will be a major winner for investors. We think the short term range of the stock could hit $.85 to $1.00 , with a longer term range (6 months to a year) of about $3-$5. REPORT TEXN is composed of five divisions, all with excellent potential: (1) TRADE PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL, Inc. This division?s primary product is a tire sealer that helps prevent tires from going flat. It is a before-the-fact product: you put it in your tires and they resist puncturing. In tests, bicycles and motorcycles ran over nails without suffering punctures. TEXN is reportedly in the final stage of negotiating with a major nationwide retail outlet to carry this unique product. The company has the capacity to sell more than 1 million units of the product a month. This division alone has the potential of sending the stock price of TEXN sky high. (2) INNOVATIVE WEAPONRY INC. This division, another 100% owned subsidiary of TEXN, designs and manufactures night sites for firearms. They are one of only three producers of these devices in the world and their market share is increasing. This division currently sells night sights to the military, police agencies and to the civilian market. It was profitable in 1998 and has increased revenues during 1999. (3) TRIDENT TECHNOLOGIES: Trident is a 100% owned subsidiary of TEXN. It has developed under license from the Los Alamos National Laboratory a patented device known as the "Sea Patch." The "Sea Patch" can repair hull breaches in ships and allow them to get safely to port without taking on water or discharging the contents of its hold into the sea. It is the only device of its kind in existence. On November 9, 1999 the company announced that the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) finished testing the Sea Patch, and the device passed the tests with excellent results and would be certified by the Bureau. The ABS certification opens the doors to U.S. Merchant Marine use, U.S. Coast Guard recommendation and U.S. Naval examination. TEXN says that the U.S. Coast Guard had expressed intense interest in the Sea Patch, in particular for use on barges that transport oil and chemicals via inland waterways in the U.S. The company also mentioned that there were several major oil companies that were interested in the Sea Patch as a preventive measure to oil spills resulting from hull damage. There was even a hint that the U.S. Coast Guard might require vessels that carry oil, hazardous cargo or other environmentally damaging materials to have on board a Sea Patch or even several of the devices. The Sea Patch also has obvious applications for the military: if it can keep warships from sinking that have had hull damage, wouldn't they be worth having aboard? We think the company has an excellent chance of securing contracts for the Sea Patch from the U.S. Navy, major oil companies and of obtaining U.S. Coast Guard support for the device as an aid to protecting the environment. We think this division by itself has the potential of sending TEXN stock price sky high. (4) CLOSE QUARTERS BODY ARMOR. This wholly owned subsidiary has developed body armor resistant to ice picks and other knife-type objects that defeat current body armor. There is intense interest in this product from several state corrections agencies as well as police agencies from around the country. The company is currently in negotiations with large state government agency interested in the product. This division should do well indeed. 5) GRIFFIN, USA This subsidiary is the U.S. importer of the Griffin firearm. The Griffin is a replica of the Colt .45. Recently, Colt announced it would not be selling its firearms to the civilian market and so this division should increase revenues in coming months. MISCELLANEOUS The company is run by Ken Wilson, a seasoned, focused executive who our analysts believe has the right stuff to take TEXN to new levels. Mr. Wilson has stated there is no chance of a reverse split in the stock, and that he is determined to maximize shareholder value. We believe he will do it. SUMMARY The company's five fully owned divisions all have excellent potential. Two of them --TPI and Trident -- have outstanding potential. Add zero debt, competent management, current profitability and a low share price, and we think TEXN is an amazing value. With an announcement from the company that it has concluded a major deal with any of its products ? and there are several ongoing negotiations in final stages ? . It is why we have chosen to profile TEXN and why we believe it will be a major winner for all investors. END REPORT
