I would be curious to hear why you personally think that this is a great growth stock. I have kept up fairly well with the company news (sooooo many press releaese to keep up with) and I am still unsure about this company's future. Don't get me wrong.. I like it... I just am not sure whether it is going to do anything soon. It takes these little companies a while to recover once everyone bails.... years ago alot of people were saying that this was a great growth stock and the price was $6/share. The company has repeatedly shown it doesn't care about their shareholders and doesn't seem to be able to back up all the hype that once surrounded it.

Money World called alot of brokers a while back pushing AMHD... and all the ones I know about just laughed... same ole same ole. AMHD seems to like Money World and Money World has a bad reputation...and often you are judged by who you associate with.

I own some of this stock... and at one point I was going to step into it big.... and who knows, someday I might still, but first this company needs to prove themselves. They have been talking about getting on the NASDAQ for a very long time... they have talked about all this testing they did with Municipalities... they have talked about all these new deals they signed with major distributors... and yet we never see any action or press releases.

Just my opinion...

I own and follow AMHD. I appreciate very much your comments and confidence in the Co. I have bought down. First BOT 4/97 at 5+, then 9/97 at 3, then 1/98 at 1 5/8. My wife and I visited the co. in Jan. We were favorably impressed although it is a very small co. Pat showed us around. I have talked to Mike on the phone last yr. and also several times to their IR rep. Ed Schuchardt. I like what I have seen about Pat and Mike. I believe they are frugal and level-headed. We use their "Sentry Guard" odor eliminator in our cat litter box and it really works. It is expensive and I was told quite profitable. This is esentually the only product sold at Wal-Mart and K-Mart. They have not chosen to advertise it to the public because of the high costs. Their cat litter is only sold in CA I believe. We tried it and wasn't overly impressed. I have felt like suggesting that they try to contract with a litter mfgr. to add the "Sentry Guard" or to sell it to them to add. It does work well. I don't know how good their sales reps are about expanding their product lines into nursing homes, etc. They do have a lot of potential. I think they are expanding slowly so as not to get highly leveraged. I think this is prudent. I am a long term investor and plan to hold for years. They will either make it or they won't! I am betting that they will . It does take a tremendous amount of patience.
I think that there is a tremendous problem with small stocks, especially BB stocks! I got involved with several and have lost money on most. Like AMHD,which was over $10 and now they are doing a lot better, they are < 1/3 the price. I own another that was over $7 on the concept alone, and now that they are growing at 10% per mo., they are $0.53! Another I got into because of the stupid "Rumor Mill" went to $15 and now they say they will be profitably this yr., they are $1 and change! It seems to me that micro-caps are really out of favor. The way to have made money in this overvalued mkt. is to buy the overvalued blue chips (large caps) and watch them get more overvalued. I own some of these also.
With AMHD the biosludge treatment is the key. I just hope they are able to sell a lot. I have no idea how well this will work out. They also need to eventually treat their own alumina instead of hauling it to a convertor. Doing this will require probably a lot of capital and a lot of environmental permits, etc. Phosphoric acid is toxic and corrosive. Your comments and anyone else's will be appreciated. I personally think you need a long time frame with these type of companies, but what is frustrating is their volatility. Once they run up, they are subject to a huge correction. Maybe you are better off putting a small amount in and forgetting about it for several years!

To:ÿ Barkley and Farrow,

Sorry I haven't been around to answer your recent posts on this thread, but now that I'm back I do have a couple of things to say about this company and where I believe it is going....

First of all, I do believe that this company is a really fine long term play but it will reward the short term investors as well.ÿ Here's why.
Management is very concerned with solid, unleveraged growth:ÿ there is no long term debt and a strong cash position is in place;ÿ the ceo has divested both himself and the company of the likes of MONEY WORLD and CORP.RELATIONS GROUP, the pump and dump bunch from FL;ÿ it is strongly rumored that there is legislation to be introduced in Congress that will enable companies with biosludge treatment programs to "clean up," pardon the pun; further, I've been given to believe, from someone very much in the know,that the financials( due shortly ) will yield a new and brighter financial picture of amhd.

Press releases and financials will be more prevalent than ever;ÿ the days of "Rumor Mill" talk are behind us.ÿ
