WALL STREET WEST NEWSWIRE March 1, 1999 A WALL STREET WEST WELCOME TO ALL NEW MEMBERS! As always, we would like to extend a warm Wall Street West welcome to all of our new subscribers from around the world. We believe you will find our publication one of the most informative, easy to read, and easy to understand stock investment newsletters available today. If you ever have any questions please don't hesitate to write us at Editor@wallstreetwest.com. BAT INTERNATIONAL: THE STOCK OF THE WEEK Bat International, Inc. (OTC-BB-BAAT-3/8). The attack of the Bat! We have been following this stock for a very long time and feel that now may be the time to start accumulating again. We like the low volume, as this may indicate that the selling is drying up. Last year this stock ran from pennies to the $3 area. Negative press and criticism brought it right down to its current low levels. We watched the stock activity this past week and noticed a definite uptrend. It looks as if the sellers in the upper .30 area are gone or very close to it. We think this stock is VERY sexy. Here is the story: BAT International is organized as a holding company with major ownership position in a set of subsidiary companies now commercializing advanced automotive and engine technology products. BAT International, Inc. was formed in 1991 and became a public corporation in 1992 to develop advanced transportation & energy technologies. The company has been developing a wide array of innovative, cutting edge technologies and is now moving quickly into production through joint ventures, partnerships and product roll-outs. Technologies include electric and hybrid electric vehicles, electric scooters and bicycles, advanced batteries and fuel cells, super-efficient and high power engines, anti-friction metal lubricants, "green" fuels, composite chassis technology and high efficiency power generation technologies. We are told the number of shares issued is around 70 million, with 40 million in the float. Of all of the bulletin board stocks we have ever featured, I think BAAT runs PR better than anyone else. They continuously keep shareholders and prospective shareholders informed about what they are doing. For more information about Bat International, Inc. visit their website at baat.com. Needless to say, we think the next couple of days will be interesting! DIGITCOM INTERACTIVE, INC: A GLOBAL LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE NETWORK DEVELOPER AND SERVICE PROVIDER Digitcom Interactive, Inc. (OTC-BB-DGIV-.87). This stock was as high as $2.38 a few short weeks ago. We think this is an excellent accumulation point and have been doing so at these price levels. Last year, DGIV ran as high as $8. We are not sure when the next news story will come out, but this stock really seems to move on news. Here is the story: Digitcom is an international telecommunications and data network company working with regional and national telephone companies internationally to establish international long distance networks. Digitcom, has embarked on a mission of global proportions and it's goals are to capture a significant portion of the Rich IP-telephony overseas market, where long distance rates are at multiples of what DGIV, would charge for the same LD/IP-telephony service. Digitcom's ''IntraVoiceCO'' IP/voice technology makes long distance calls using the Internet or dedicated IP networks to transport customer's calls, lowering costs significantly. Digitcom has been a leader in call processing and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) development for many years. With the launch of the DiV-N Network two years ago, the company has applied its engineering expertise to video transmission and audio communications over digital networks. For those of you who are "techies," here is more information about the Digitcom Internet Gateway Server: How It Works The Digitcom Internet Gateway Server (also known as IntraVoice) has made making long distance calls through Internet possible for ordinary people. One need only pick up the phone, dial the service number, enter his/her PIN number and the destination number, and the Server, along with its counterpart at the destination city, will connect the call for him/her. Neither the caller, nor the called party, needs to have a computer or an Internet account. The server at the origin site converts, compresses, and packets the voice into Internet data and sends them through the Internet/Intranet to the destination server, which decompresses and reconverts it back to analog voice for the called party. It is full-duplex, meaning both parties can talk at the same time, and with the latest DSP-based voice compression and IP telephony technologies and a good, reliable Internet/Intranet connection, the conversation can be of or near toll quality. Features · Built-in DSP compression and echo cancellation produces near toll quality voice with minimal latency (<180 msec). · Single TCP call control session for all calls ensures accurate and efficient call supervision with least overhead. Each port can be individually enabled/disabled and volume controlled. · A transaction log is created for each call. It keeps record of where the call originates, the destination phone number dialed, the date and time of the call, the duration, the subscriber account the call is charged to, the result of the call, etc. Such call detail record (CDR) is the basis for call analysis and billing reports. · Exact billing up to the seconds. Flexible and versatile rate table setup allows up to five rate periods per day, five rate segments per period, weekday and weekend rates for unlimited number of countries. · Global network management automatically selects nodes for most efficient routing of calls. Exchange and verification of transactions between nodes as frequent as needed. · Call statistics for call counts by hours, destination countries, results, etc. Useful for system supervision and call pattern analysis. · Multiple account setup with pre-built account and PIN numbers in ASCII file, ideal for setting up calling card accounts. Random or manual PIN number generation. · Separate routing and database systems of client/server configuration provides scalability and safe, efficient operation. Rate tables and accounts can be updated and become effective instantly. · Courteous prompting and announcement to guide callers through the calling process and inform them of line conditions, account balance, etc. Multi-lingual prompting and announcement can be provided according to customer's preference. · Special routing provision allows local access to weather report, directory assistance, or making domestic calls. The key for DGIV success is getting contracts and establishing substantial revenues. Though there have been delays, the company is closer than ever to accomplishing this. We feel that when contracts are announced and DGIV can prove itself as a player, the stock price will move substantially. Last year, the company announced that it would become an SEC filing and reporting company, and apply for NASDAQ. But it just never got there when it said it would. We believe this led to a lack of interest and subsequent stock price decline. Our short term target for the stock is the $1.50 to $2 area, and longer term over $5. COMPOSITE AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH, INC: INTRODUCING A NEW, LOW COST, RUGGED MOTOR VEHICLE TO THE THIRD WORLD! Composite Automobile, Inc. (OTC-BB-CARHF-$1). The stock price of this one hasn't performed as well as we thought it would up to this point, but it looks even more attractive at this level than ever before. In the early observation days before we started covering this company it was in the $1.20 area. In one day it moved to as high as $2.87. This company is currently introducing a new, low cost, rugged motor vehicle called the Worldstar. This vehicle has less than 500 parts and retails for around $7,000 brand new. Here is the story: Composite Automobile was incorporated in Calgary, Alberta Canada in 1996 in order to provide research and development as well as financing for a new business venture in the automobile industry. Through a wholly owned subsidiary called World Transport Authority, CARHF offers entrepreneurs in developing countries licenses and designs for the local manufacturing of a new type of automobile using advanced fiberglass and composite technology. This vehicle is called the WorldStar. Made with fewer than 500 parts, this rugged, back-road vehicle could play a significant role in the economies of the developing nations of the world: Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Only eight percent of the world's roads are paved, and WorldStar drives as well on the unpaved as the paved. The Worldstar retails for approximately $6,000. Licensees build manufacturing plants and provide employment for their local communities. CARHF has a prototype manufacturing and training facility located in El Cajon, California. The Company recently announced deals with licensees in both Mexico and the Philippines. We wouldn't be surprised to see a short term stock price move to the $3 to $4 area and longer term over $5. For more information visit the website at wtaworldstar.com. We will keep you updated as things progress. It's an interesting concept to imagine how our lives would be different today if someone in the family would have been an early investor in General Motors or Ford Motor company at the turn of this century! CARHF may be that opportunity. HOMELIFE, INC: READY TO TAKE OFF Homelife, Inc. (OTC-BB-HMLF-.42). We have been accumulating this over the past few weeks in a situation where there has been little or no volume. A couple of months ago it was in the $1 area. The company has been announcing positive news. We think that sooner or later the word will get out about how undervalued the stock price is. Our short term target is back to the $1 area. Here is the story: HMLF franchises full service real estate brokerage offices and provides operational and administrative services, provides mortgage financing services, owns and operates a full service retail real estate brokerage, provides home warranty coverage and provides relocation services. For the three months ended 8/31/98, sales totaled $2.1 million, up from $318 thousand. Net income totaled $38 thousand vs. a loss of $21 thousand. Results reflect the acquisition of Builders. What we do like is that the book value of the stock is .55. We think that whenever you can pick up something for less than its book value, it is a good deal. If the volume starts to come in, we look for a much higher price. We will put out a STOCK ALERT should we see that volume and price move. Be sure to visit our website at wallstreetwest.com. Watch for our STOCK ALERTS, where we will sometimes release breaking information. As always, have a great week everyone!
