NERAY> M4 - first truly Global ISDN Voice and Data Satellite System>> here's everything I could find on it.. as always do your own DD, additions, corrections welcome please european wireless & turnaround story ticker: (NasdaqNM: NERAY )NERA ASA ADR home page: (link> nera.no ) 5 year chart: was trading near 60 per share in 97, now trading around 3s quote.yahoo.com new wireless product & network: - just released this summer: M4 - Nera World Communicator - first truly Global ISDN Voice and Data Satellite System (link> mss.nera.no ) analyst comments: Hidden Value Stocks: Connecting with Nera- "Nera is just about as close to free as you are going to get for an emerging technology company. Nera's specialty is wireless communications and it has been in the business since the early 1950s. In fact, it is the largest standalone pure play wireless company in the world, with annual revenues in excess of $385 million (1998)." David H.M. Baker CFA, special to worldlyinvestor.com June 10, 1999 6:39 AM EDT Link to full commentary> worldlyinvestor.com description from co. website: >>portable ISDN data and satellite system - Nera SatCom AS will manufacture terminals for the new Inmarsat Global Area Network (M4) service. The Nera terminals will be commercially available from July. The Nera WorldCommunicator will be the size of a laptop computer weighing less than four kilos, and it will provide ISDN functionality (64 kbps). This is primarily a product/service for data applications, but there is also a mini-M channel available for low-cost voice. The Nera WorldCommunicator will also have a built in DECT base station, an add-on feature giving the end user new flexibility. The Nera WorldCommunicator will focus on ISDN, although other interfaces are available. Most applications for ISDN are easily transferable to anywhere in the world with this equipment. Whether a journalist wants to send live or still pictures from the field, a field engineer wants to create an extension to headquarter's Local Area Network or a geophysicist wants to send a report from the jungle - it should be as easy as plugging into the wall socket at home. Morten Heiss-Schøyen, Nera, says: "With smaller, more flexible and cost-efficient equipment and service, a much wider market can be targeted than for traditional Inmarsat services. Demands for data bandwidth, mobility and security are other driving factors, which indicate future success for these products and services. Nera Satcom will be the first on the market with a commercially available terminal, and we have a golden opportunity to establish ourselves as market leaders from day one." excerpts from yahoo financial profile>: biz.yahoo.com Market Capitalization $270.3M Shares Outstanding 96.1M Float 83.6M Price/Book (mrq) 2.53 Price/Earnings (ttm) 35.61 Price/Sales (ttm) 0.63 After-Tax Income (ttm) $7.16M Sales (ttm) $373.8M Long-Term Debt/Equity (mrq) 0 Total Cash(mrq) $380.7M some excerpts from 3rd quarter 99 report at web site: "Positive cash position The Nera Group's operational finances are constantly improving. The company now has a 42.6 percent equity ratio. Net cash position as of September 30, 1999 totalled NOK 105 million, a NOK 217 million improvement on the end of the first half-year. In addition to its third-quarter operating profit, Nera gained NOK 104.7 million on the sale of its shares in the Singapore company. Income before taxes was NOK 209.9 million. After taxes, this resulted in a yield of NOK 1.53 in earnings per share.... " ...."The business area Satellite Communication had NOK 789 million in order intake as of September 30, 1999, as opposed to NOK 681 million in the same period last year. That is a new record high, thanks to a high sales volume for Nera WorldPhone and many orders for M4 earth stations for Inmarsat's Global Area Network service. Turnover was somewhat lower than the same quarter last year. There is considerable interest in Satellite Communication's new product, the Nera World Communicator. Nera is ahead of its two competitors and clearly intends to become market leader..." ..."Broadband Access Networks - new priority area Nera is considering a new business within Broadband Access Networks. This priority area will address the growing need for integrated broadband solutions for end users. "The new priority area will develop new products based on Nera's core expertise in satellite and radio-link technology, offering customers system solutions based on its own technology and that of others." Skjeie stresses that an important part of the operations will be to forge alliances with suppliers who can supplement Nera's own products.
