Tue, 27 Apr 2004 09:54:49 -0500 US Stock-Market - Stock Profile of the Week Symbol: QIIIF Market: NASDAQ/OTC.BB Sector: MICRO-ELECTRONICS QIIIF already has an impressive array of clients, including some of the world's leading corporations like IBM, Bank of America, USA Today, VISA Intl., Chase Manhattan Bank, Mastercard intl., and more. Before we begin our profile we have very exciting, breaking news... RICHMOND, British Columbia---PRNewswire-FirstCall---QI Systems Inc. (QIIIF), the industry leader in smart card solutions, announces that the company has launched a new sales and marketing effort, both domestically and internationally. The company is promoting its memory card technology utilizing informational programs, direct sales contact and an enhanced market presence. QIIIF is preparing for a renewed presence in high level trade associations, such as ACT Canada and Card Tech / Secure Tech, and is planning to attend several major technical meetings during the coming year. In addition, the company plans to seek promotional opportunities in key trade journals and publications. STOCK PROFILE OF THE WEEK QIIIF's focus is the design, development and marketing of payment terminals for smart cards. The primary applications are unattended point of sale (UPOS) systems such as soft-drink vending machines, snack vending machines, laundry machines (washers and dryers), pay-and-display parking systems, newspaper boxes, photocopiers, etc. INTRODUCTION TO SMART CARDS A Smart card consists of a microelectronic chip embedded in a plastic card with a contact pad on the card's surface and/or an embedded antenna for "contactless" communication. As a payment device a smart card is a much enhanced and more versatile version of a magneticc stripe card or debit card. Value loaded to a smart card's purse is prepaid and resembles cash. Smart cards can be used for secure purchase of goods via a payment terminal interfaced to a soft drink vending machine, snack vending machine, laundry unit (washer or dryer), newspaper vending box, pay-and-display parking terminal, transit gate, photocopier or other Unattended Point-Of-Sale (UPOS) device. There is no need for exact change or for any change at all. Smart cards can be used as well for payment in attended Point Of Sale (POS) applications, and can also be used to confirm identity, to access buildings or to carry data such as personal health records, driver's license details, and biometric data including finger prints or voice prints. Biometrics can be used to further authenticate identity for high security applications. SMART-VEND SOLUTION SmartVend solution is made for your vending needs. Already the SmartKit has been adapted for a variety of applications including Drinks/Snacks, Newspaper, Parking, Copier/Vending, Laundry and Water vending. SmartVend for Printers and Copiers: SKC supports existing OEM photocopiers by Xerox and Kodak and printers by Hewlett Packard and Epson. Interfaces for other OEM equipment can be rapidly developed. Depending on host machine support, SKC can be installed at cost-cutting without its console housing in existing payment cabinets. The SKC design makes installation simple, both in the field and on the factory floor. Machine sales and vend data upload and exception log handling are accessed by a handheld device or merchant accumulator card. SKC may be bundled with either, pre-paid disposable, or reloadable cash cards for use with our card dispenser and reload stations. All system components support electronic audit. THE FUTURE OF SMART CARDS The applications for smart cards in the future is limitless. We would like to focus on one in particular. As the debate over a national personal identification system intensifies, the smart card industry is gearing up a campaign to make sure its chip-based technology is the leading contender for such a system. The Smart Card Alliance, the industry's trade association, released a white paper Jan. 30 that argues for the advantages of smart cards against other technologies that could be candidates for a personal ID card. The alliance will use it to initiate a concerted pitch to policymakers in the public and private sectors. Alliance members have been encouraged by what they see as the leading role of the federal government in the recent growth of smart card use. "Once the Common Access Card [CAC] for the Defense Department has been issued, we expect other agencies will begin to pick up on the use of smart cards," said Bob Merkert, director of strategic accounts, and PC and network security for SCM Microsystems. DOD has committed to issuing the CAC to 4 million military and civilian employees, he said, and distribution could be extended to more than 13 million people when retired personnel, family members and others are taken into account. The State Department also is implementing a smart ID card for automated access control of its buildings, the Veterans Administration is looking to pilot smart cards for issuing benefits, and the FDIC is using a smart card-based PKI for remote access of databases by bank auditors. All of this, along with the adoption of smart cards by financial institutions, debit and other type card companies and other organizations, means "we are seeing the rebirth of the smart card industry, and its expansion past the level of the initial adopter," Merkert said. With the emphasis on protecting the privacy of the cardholder, the alliance claims that smart cards reveal only as much information as is needed for any particular transaction. CLIENTS QIIIF already has an impressive array of clients, including some of the world's leading corporations: Bank of America Chase Manhattan Bank First Union Bank IBM Corp. Lexis Systems Mastercard International Maytag Royal Bank of Canada USA Today USA Treasury Department (Veterans Administration) VISA International MANAGEMENT President and CEO Steven R.

Investors: OSSI, the Next Ditech, LendingTree, or Countrywide? Tue, 23 Mar 2004 20:07:40 -0500
by Melisa Crowell 24 Mar '04

24 Mar '04

Tue, 23 Mar 2004 20:07:40 -0500 Equity Spoltight: OSF Financial Services - OSSI Could OSSI be the next Ditech, Lending Tree, E-Loan, or Countrywide? Countrywide UP 23,000% since 1982, 156% in last year alone. 2003 saw one of the the biggest booms in real estate history. Homeownership is at its highest level ever at 68%, and experts are predicting 2004 will be even bigger. In fact, since 2000 the stocks of the ten financial companies that dominate mortgages have risen an average of 78%. You have all heard of such companies as Ditech, Lending Tree, E-Loan, and Countrywide. These companies are riding the current wave of record refinancing, posting record revenues and phenomenal gains. For you, the investor, it may very well be too late to get in on the ground floor of these already well-known entities. But is it too late for you to get into this market at all? Absolutely not. OSF Financial Services - OSSI - is just now getting its legs and will soon be up and running at full speed. Here is your chance to get in while the getting is good. To illustrate the rise in stock prices per the real estate boom of 2003, we can use as an example Countrywide Financial. 77% of Countrywide's pre-tax earnings are derived from mortg. banking. Net earnings went from 842 million dollars for the 12 months ended 12/31/2002 to a whopping 2 billion, 373 million dollars for 12 months ended 12/31/2003, with diluted earnings per share going from 4.87 in 2002 to 12.47 in 2003. 52-week Range - 37.96 - 97.30 Fourth quarter highlights include the following: Consolidated net earnings reached 564 million dollars, advancing 121 percent over fourth quarter last year. Earnings per diluted share increased 89 percent over last year to 2.74, the Company's second highest quarter on record. Notably, the Company's Liquid Yield Option Notes became convertible during the fourth quarter, resulting in an upswing in the number of diluted shares outstanding for the quarter of 10.4 million. This had a dilutive effect on fourth quarter earnings of 0.14 per share and on annual earnings of 0.17 per share. Pre-tax earnings from Diversified Businesses were 246 million dollars, a gain of 122 percent over last year's fourth quarter. INCREDIBLE Gains. Countrywide Financial was established in 1969, but you can see an astounding rise in stock value came last year, coinciding with a never before seen real estate boom. Just last year alone stock value was up an est. %156. According to Shawn Tully from FORTUNE Magazine: "Most amazing of all is that Countrywide boasts the best stock market performance of any financial services company in the FORTUNE 500, measured from the start of the Great Bull Market over two decades ago. During that period, it has delivered investors a 23,000% returnyes, 23,000% or 30% a year, so that shareholders now have over $230,000 for every $1,000 they invested in late 1982. It handily beat superstars WaMu, Wal-Mart, and Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (all around 15,000%)." The time has come and gone to get in early with Countrywide, but the time is right for OSSI.
