BUSINESS SUMMARY AND CORPORATION BACKGROUND: Diamond Entertainment Corp., (OTC BB: DMEC) through the CA subsidiary, markets and sells variety of videocassette titles to the budget home video market. DMEC also manufactures, purchases and distributes children's toy products.
DMEC has three major product lines. First, DMEC's division of Video Distribution and Marketing has over 300 titles in 3 categories; educational titles, classic film, and instructional video. Among their videos are a learning series for children in subjects like phonics and math; computer related instructional videos. Also, over the last year, the Company has developed a highly successful line of religious titles and is looking for acquisitions in these categories. Second, DMEC' division of General Merchandise sells toy products and sundry merchandise to large discount retailers. The Company has just given this division a face-lift and has entered into a deal with a marketing and Infomercial Company with guaranteed unit sales. Third, DMEC has developed CineChrome Cards that are a patented chromium card. DMEC just completed the first 20 cards with Norman Rockwell images licensed from Curtis Publishing. Cards are currently placed in Hallmark Gold Crown stores. The Company will soon have 20 images from Universal Studios which will be marketed in retailers like Music Land. Diamond is also currently undergoing talks with several large corporations about doing CineChrome Holiday cards. This is a potentially enormous market.
SUMMARY: DMEC just established its e-Commerce Division. We believe e-commerce will create huge potential for DMEC. The Company is currently building a top quality web site for an E-Commerce shopping mall and is in discussions with numerous and varied retailers about distributing their products through DMEC's web site. The Company believes it will have over 100,000 items offered through its site within the next 6 months.
DMEC has an impressive customer base including such major retailers as Best Buy, Musicland Group, Wallgreens, Walmart, Sam's Club and Osco. They are also currently testing in Costco, are in discussions with large clearinghouse/mail order companies, and are negotiating with some major banks to have inserts in all those monthly credit card statements that customers receive.
Our conservative projection for 2000's revenues will be about $18.5 million with EPS at $0.08. If the Company is able to complete some of the major contracts that are currently in negotiation, we believe that the above numbers will increase dramatically, possibly double the current projected revenues and earnings for next 12 months.
We believe that DMEC presents a classic turnaround situation with a huge Internet play. Last February, The Shares went up as high as $0.50 on the news that DMEC will have an e-commerce division. Since then the stock has retreated and consolidated in the range of $0.10. We see there is technical support around in the range of $0.07-$0.08. The trading volumes have been up in the past ten days. We heard that DMEC will open its Internet shopping mall very soon. We believe the stock presents us a best opportunity to get in now for both short-term and long-term gains. The short-term target price is $0.50-$0.60. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 1999, analystgroup.com. All rights reserved.
