Gary, I think I have found a gem ( APTD ) of a stock. The only thing about it is, it's not $.05 and they have revenues. Their net income increased 550% over the previous quarter of last year, so for the last 3 months they have earnings per share of $.01. Alpha Pro Tech Ltd. develops, manufactures and markets innovative disposable protective apparel products for the medical, dental, industrial, clean room and food service markets. The company has manufacturing facilities in Salt Lake City, Utah, Nogales, Arizona; Janesville Wisconsin; Valdosta, Georgia ( that's only a couple hour drive for you ) and Benjamin Hill and Nogales, Mexico. 52-week low $0.687 Recent Price $0.969 52-week high $1.84 Market Cap. $23.4m Shares Outstanding 24.1m Float 3.90m Looks good to me, does anyone else see something different?

Gary, here's another pick from The Swamp: RESY - Reconditioned Systems, Inc. Nasdaq Small-Cap. $4 - $4 5/16. (Buys stacking up at the bid, last $4 3/16). Shares Outstanding: 1,473,950 Shares in Float: 500,000 PE: 7.8 1998 Revenues (year-end March 31): $9.6 million, up 35% from 1997 revenues of $7.1 million. 1998 EPS (fully diluted): $0.52 vs. $0.16 in 1997. No long term debt. Current ratio about 3.5:1. Next earnings release: Week of August 17, 1998. RESY purchases used modular office work stations from manufacturers, dealers, brokers and end-users; and then reconditions and markets the work stations. For the fiscal year ended 3/31/98, sales increased 35% to $9.6 million. Net income increased from $258 thousand to $840 thousand. Results reflect increased wholesale sales. Net income also reflects an increased gross profit margin, and lower overall percentage of fixed expenses. Very small float, moves on little volume. PE of 20 would put the stock at $11 3/8 based on trailing 12 month earnings. Forward split isn't out of the question if the stock runs to $8-$10 to increase market liquidity. Rumored to be a takeover target, Haworth has been mentioned as a candidate. No coverage on SI, only a handful of messages on Yahoo message board. Web site: resy.net Gator
