It was last on August 25th that Falken Industries Ltd (FLKI) announced additional progress for affiliate World Trade through a procurement agreement with Norex International. The benefits from this FLKI innovation were great. Reduction in raw material costs going to 30%, lockin agreements to perfect exemplary hedging, and 150% retail price reductions on some of the most high-tech products conceived.

FLKI is a rapidly growing company operating globally in two core business segments, chemical and wet wipes product conceptions. The production of its products requires price stability, notably in the essentials ie various innovative high tech substrates for manufacture and distribution of FLKI conceptions to its markets.

FLKI product conceptions rely on unique innovative and entirely eco-friendly materials, and the World Trade was expected to result in substantial economies of scale for procurement destinned to manufacturers of FLKI conceptions, including the world renowned Clean Plus® brand. FLKI is able to leverage raw material cost for customers throughout the world. Raw materials are procured and locked in to futures agreements by World Trading from suppliers throughout the world but notably in Nigeria, Brazil, Turkey,India, Hong Kong, the Philippines and Libya, China others.

World Trading actively deals in bulk chemicals, finished product lines, degreasers, soaps, anti-graffitis, flow packs, wet wipes for consumer, professional and industrial uses etc. through alliances such as that with Norex.

Commenting, Manuel Garcia, Communication Officer for FLKI, stated, "We are very encouraged by the results of operations which now permit us to source various innovative materials and substrates ensuring substantial savings in the cost of raw materials for all producers and consequently distributors of FLKI product conceptions."

Recently, China has developed a near stranglehold on certain raw materials needed, in fact essential in the Automobile After-Market industry. China produces 95 percent of the world's supply and claims about 60 percent of known reserves within its borders. These raw materials happen to be essential to many emerging green technoligies - including those employed in FLKI product conceptions. As a freelance analyst for the industry for more than 25 years, and having covered this company since 1997, it never ceases to amaze me. How could it have planned for, first of all known, that China would just as these elements are becoming more essential, undertake a fresh brand of resource nationalism. In early September a few month after FLKI enlarged its procurement and hedging strategies through World Trading, China declared its plan to streamline the domestic industry, impose export controls, and establish a national reserve. Export quotas were severally indeed, dramatically curbed to levels whoefully insufficient to fill the global needs of the industry. In just one component the industry will require 142,000 tons and this is expected to double in 2015. The Chinese say their goal is not to hoard, but rather to push the industry to open factories in China - this tongue in cheek statement has the industry panicked because it hungers for these raw materials. The present demand alone exceeds China's new export quotas.

Drop the idea of alternative producers because even if they redoubled their efforts to exploit their own reserves of these materials it would take five years before any meaningful difference is felt. During that time I see FLKI interests blossoming to its shareholder's extacy ! Of course that implies my belief that the competition are not going to all rush to establish factories in China - but that would take at least a couple of years to put on line.

And what happens if China get's annoyed and decides to cut off the supply line ? I see many problems for many in that case, but not for FLKI and its producers. The commercial advantage for FLKI is absolutely fabulous.

So where does that lead us, and notably as concerns the topic of my industry sponsored report. Well, FLKI anticipated this event - though it will not admit or deny its possession of a strategic magical wand - and that means that it has likely hedged by locking alternative sources into a box as for which its affiliate World Trading will hold the only key. That to me spells a wonderful business opportunity for FLKI. As for one it will avoid for it, the scrambling in the industry that is already starting to be witnessed, and second it will avoid a break down in the supply line of producers ensuring the plentiful availability of its product conceptions. But there is more. Competitors caught asleep, will either have to limit the volume of their productions leaving shelf space for FLKI product conceptions, or supply themselves with the raw materials which FLKI can make available. It doesn't take much to enjoy the scenario - from an FLKI perspetive.

We've all heard the rumor of interest in FLKI by major companies. This is being cloaked up like a national secret. Though pressed a few days ago, the company felt compelled to provide the usual "will not confirm or deny"... the fact is that they did not deny. Is it to wonder ponders this analyst ; is it not cheaper to buy the company than be at its mercy for raw materials, continue to lose market share to its product conceptions, sit helplessly by as the distribution network of FLKI product conceptions expands exponentially... no, I smell some kind of deal. Just an opinion of course !

FLKI built its global leadership position trough a process that prioritized quality, performance, capacity and price. In a market where competition promises to intensify, it is well placed to continue to increase market share, most notably from its higher priced competitors.


The FLKI Strategic Committee opined in a statement made yesterday, that notwithstanding a major drop in car sales, that new consumers from emerging markets will boost demand with 375 millions additional vehicles in circulation by 2012 and 715 millions by 2020 increasing the size of its car care product markets by more than 150%.

Notwithstanding the crisis visiting car sales and generally pessimistic predictions for the automobile industry, FLKI believes that its product concept and notably car care products are on the edge of an explosive growth phase.

From 2015, the rapid increase in per capita income in the emergent countries and notably the BRIC, as well as the development and production of less expensive vehicles destined to resolve the mobility problems in large cities will increase the sales of vehicles by more than 600%. Amongst the BRIC where FLKI and its brand conceptions have been particularly aggressive, the Indian market is likely to be the most dynamic with a growth rate exceeding 15%. The Clean Plus© Product Group one of FLKI's original conceptions, is currently in process of establishing several distribution platforms in the country and is uniquely amongst its peers, experiencing major increases in sales.

The Committee also advised, that it believes that the number of vehicles in circulation in the world markets in which its product conceptions are currently actively distributed will increase substantially and will pass the 680 million units (2008) to 1.1 billion in 2020. The statistic translates to sales of 370 million new vehicles between the present and 2013, with a commensurate increase in the used vehicle park to which most car care products are targeted.

By 2020 the number of new vehicles hitting the streets would then be some 720 million opening a huge market for FLKI car care product conceptions in consumer, professional and industrial segments.

New designs currently announced such as those announced by several major automobile manufacturers, create a need for different additional products, many of which are already on the FLKI drawing boards. FLKI product conceptions such as those distributed by the Clean Plus© Product Group already hold industry leading positions worldwide.

FLKI is also particularly optimistic for its well publicized commitment to a solid presence in the BRIC (Brazil, Russian, India and China) FLKI strategic analyst believe that in the next 10 years, millions of families from these markets, as well as the others in which FLKI maintains product conception presences such as Malaysia, Mexico, and Indonesia, will acquire their first vehicles. Presently set at 18 cars per 1000 households, the rate of sales will augment by more than 10% by 2013.

In 2008, China displaced the United States as the biggest automobile market. "Emergent countries in which we are aggressively developing our technologies and product concepts are experiencing an unbelievable increase in their purchasing power which is not likely to stop any time soon." Said Manuel Garcia Communications Officer. The BRIC will quickly reach the $ 10,000 revenue point which corresponds to the global base for personal mobility. For the Automobile and Automobile After-Markets in which FLKI holds a global leadership position this promises a market environment with enormous potential.

Industrialized nations where the rate of growth is much slower in respect to that of the emergent countries will see their vehicular markets increase by 2020. The growth will be fueled by low cost vehicles adapted to the local infrastructures and which will result from strong demands within large cities where the current market is relatively low.

While FLKI analyst believe that any growth in sales in the US and in Europe will continue a general slow down for the next few years, the Strategic Committee announced a renewed effort in distribution support for these markets - freezing prices for three years, and doubling distributor sales and marketing support. "We are certain that the slow down in these countries will end. Growth is just a matter of time, and when it starts we will have increased presence and market share ensuring the dominance of our market conceptions." Continued Garcia. FLKI believes that growth in these markets will average 1 or 2%.

FLKI built its global leadership position trough a process that prioritized quality, performance, capacity and price. In a market where competition promises to intensify, it is well placed to continue to increase market share, most notably from its higher priced competitors.

"There are many in the industry who seem to realize that the demands of consumers is changing radically. The future belongs to those that have the capacity to develop new innovative products that are less expensive, that consider the problems of local markets and who propose alternatives" added Garcia. FLKI whose expertise and technologies in chemical and wet wipe productions have earned it numerous industry awards has a material advantage over its competition.

"Strategies such as those in place at many players in this industry and which target only crisis management will prove disastrous. FLKI whose motus operanti has always been to rely on innovation in product development will see distributors of its product conceptions benefit from millions of new consumers" concluded Garcia.

You're now being told to watch what you eat and to make sure it's spanking clean. The food industry must install dispensers with disinfecting wipes at the threshold of every exit and entrance moving from room to room, and it all spells truck loads of cash for the savvy producers of these innovative product conceptions by Falken Industries Ltd (OTC : FLKI), a company I have followed since 1997.

Well, the food industry is listening - not that regulations notably in Europe are providing any wiggle room - and it's catching on in FLKI global markets. The company is at the center of attention - even the military and civil defense units re jumping in.

Its SN10© family of anti-bacterial product conceptions for example, born in the research labs dedicated to the Clean Plus© Product Group include a natural, tasteless and odorless line of anti-bacterial solutions used as surface and hand-wipe cleansers and disinfectants throughout the food industry.

SN10© and family which was first developed in 1997 and has evolved with time and EU regulations has been available since that time and is currently available for industrial applications for processors of, for example, produce, meats, poultry and seafood. The hand wipe products adorn hundreds of industrial doorways in food and beverage companies including very well known ones that produce delicious world appreciated alcohol beverages which have made this assignment just a bit more pleasurable than others.

But Clean Plus© hand-wipes are also a key consumer product. It's a small step from washing hands before dinner to cleaning and disinfecting them with one of many different wipe products in a wall dispenser as close to the consumer's kitchen as the Clean Plus© web store. Given the sudden accent on health care, and what must be consumer awareness for clean food and eating habits, times couldn't be better for these products and for FLKI and the Product Group.

Lab proven and EN certified to kill the bad guys while removing dirt, filth, grease, organic grease, paints, waxes, pesticides and surface contaminants - it satisfies the heavy demands of a surface wipes or solution. Sighting a larger target, the hand wipes are also lipo-protective, hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial meaning they do not dry hands, they reduce the incidence of allergic reaction and of course provide the anti-bacterial protection needed. The products are made in the EU under strict controls and are available globally - which for the elucidation of some, includes the North American continent of which the US is a part!

As panic stricken consumers worry of Swine Flu as for which these products are ideal prevention, the news continues to feed the insecurities of consumers. Diseases born of unsafe food supplies are everywhere, and the professional and consumer tension increases. Clean Plus© solutions and other FLKI product conceptions in liquid and wet wipe packaging target these concerns. These products, available in consumer packaging help them take their own safety seriously enough to accommodate preventive measures in their own home.

And consumers in the US are right to worry. Reported cases of food borne illness exceed 85 million in the U.S. every year and an average of 50 different pesticides are used in the US food supply.

Like all similar product conceptions born out of FLKI research, these Clean Plus© products bear the "Eco Pledge" label which underlines the company's commitment to earth friendly bio-degradability.

Martha Steward, still my queen, where are you?

The 4th Q for this international leader in the industry is predicted to best 30% with significant further increase in global market share.


Falken Industries Ltd will trump the industry once again with its  counter-cyclical and crisis unfriendly results. With his usual buoyant look, Manuel Garcia, Communications Officer for the company, announced in a telephone conference to the industry that estimates of sales for FLKI product concepts will be significantly better than the third quarter, which closed up nearly 30%.

The 4th quarter is also predicted to improve global market share in a meaningful way. FLKI product concepts have been quickly filling the voids created by over priced and over extended competitors, many of which are abandoning markets or withdrawing support for their distributors. FLKI distributors report a substantial increase in customer growth and global inquiries for distribution of FLKI product concepts have grown exponentially to near 180 per month.

Breaking from his radiant smile, Garcia added: "Numbers aren't everything. The  evolution  of the distribution network who take from producers product conceptions to the retail markets, is significantly improved by FLKI's extraordinary marketing and sales support and the flow down to consumers has kept retail prices with comfortable margins while maintaining a large price advantage over the competition.

"We continue to believe that the emphasis of distributors has to stay on market share. We have achieved our objectives for capacity, production, quality, and logistic excellence. We consider the price advantage component a material benefit for our current strategy of enhancing market share and are very aware of the windfall possibility for us to enhance margins and profits through eventual and minor price increases which would still leave our competition significantly more expensive." added Garcia.

As previously announced, FLKI believes that it has benefited from the crisis. It's hedging, raw material management, and logistics have given it substantial advantages over others in the trade. This support is available to all purveyors of FLKI product concepts, giving them market advantages unattainable by other distributors.

"We have excelled in containing our cost, hedging our currency risk and providing cover for producers and distributors of our concepts. Our raw material procurement has permitted us an enviable position and realized production costs savings of up to 30% over our competitors without impacting on margins" concluded Garcia.

FLKI also took the opportunity to confirm advancement in its substantial projects in Russia and Turkey where it plans to expand its strategic alliances and establish distribution platforms in support of those currently positioned in both countries.

When pressed about continuing rumors that FLKI may be the target of an acquisition, or formulating a strategic alliance with a significant well known company, Garcia responded :"It is the position  of the company that it will neither confirm nor deny the existence of such talks with any party, outside the normal course of business and at this time."

Try reading between those lines ! As I've stated before, I have followed the company since 1997, its position has always been one of fundamentals, displaying little interest for stock market traders per se. However it has always exhibited a keen and consistent concern for a long term strategy "intended to enhance the positions of our shareholders".

Given its product and distribution advantage (its distribution network is probably worth $ 30 million to a large US company) and its currently incredibly depressed stock - yet up 950% from its crisis tanking low at current levels, make its market cap barely $ 20 million making the company a steal up to .73 cents.

The big guys are awake on this one. I think it's worth a look.

BANG we've hit bottom, fasten your seat belts for the trip back OTC :FLKI

As an analyst for the Automobile After-Market Industry, I am often asked to pull a rabbit out of my "secret encounters" - well I don't have such a rabbit (and if I did couldn't use it), but twenty five years have taught me to never take advice from a poorer man.

Now one might say that on the salary of an analyst it doesn't take much.

However, as most readers know I have covered every gem in the industry and every laggard. Laggards today are a plenty in this industry, and I mean even those companies owned by behemoths.

As part of my assignment I must also peruse investor havens, I see a lot of talk and actions which translate to what I'll call a rush syndrome. These so called day traders that fill pages and pages of chats don't do it for the money but for the adrenaline rush that powers their veins every time - by luck - they hit on a "winner".

A few months later however their winner is in the toilet and if they made a small trading profit being amongst those lucky enough to get out during some promoter's campaign – it's just that, luck. None of the 30 "day traders" I interviewed indicated any patterned notion of weighted average yield, most indicated subscribing to a "so be it" philosophy in respect to losses. One, kept talking about his successful trades, but analyzing them together his losing trades were greater than the winners. Bottom line it's a game, much like the chat rooms they participate in. So then how do you really make money in this game ?

Well, I went to three expert full time investors (they shun the title of trader) and interviewed them all. There is a pattern to their thinking which I am taking the liberty of sharing - so here goes with the salient portions of what they each called "Fundamentals Trading" ;

1. Stay under the radar, off the chats, the message boards, stay anonymous in interviews - use the media only to read, never post. Look for reasoned presentations or comments.
2. Unless you have multi-million dollar resources and can involve sophisticated measures there is no such thing as a successful day trader.
3. Don't bet the charts except (i) to marry volume with trend and trend with volume. High volume and a declining price over a period of one month, absent negative news, means profit taking often massive, a very positive signal - follow it to the bottom +/-. (ii) A sudden stop in the volume and an unchanged stock price means a bottom. (iii) an uptick of .125 or more confirms that bottom – don't wait for it.
4.  Don't be an amateur. If a trade or investment is worth doing its worth doing for a fraction of a penny more. Don't put orders in at round numbers, For example if an offer is .19 put in for .193.
5. Don't be a foolish amateur. Bid your trade at the lower of 120% of the highest Market Maker bid or 110% of the lowest offer posted. Then apply the rule of +.003.
6. If trading stocks under $ 1 don't work on percentages but on real cash. Don't underbid 1 cent to save $20. You'll do yourself and the stock more good bidding up 1 cent then adding .003 because that will lead to more interest a fortiori better performance. It will also clean up the lower un-posted offers.
7. Chat room traders are overwhelmingly guilty of ignoring rules. In so doing they keep chasing the trade, lose it most of the time and suffer losses more than 50% of the time.
8. Hold the stock until you have objective confirmation i.e. if volume dries up to near nothing after a run-up of more than 20% and the stock fails to up tick over seven consecutive days, don't sell, watch it. If the stock down ticks to a level 90% below its price on the day volume stopped in three or more consecutive down ticks, with no news, selling is an appropriate time. Never sell on a sudden down tick even if it goes below 90% because that could just be a large block trading on an AON (All of Nothing) at a favorable price. You must have dried up volume and three consecutive down ticks before a sell should be contemplated. Don't violate the rule of three consecutive, any uptick in between or side trading at the same price interrupts the rule of three.

Too often, traders underbid as a matter of principle and sell or buy in fact on impulse (for example, if you are buying 2000 shares of .20 cents at 1 cent increase in price is $ 20 - if $ 20 is an amount to be considered you have no business trading.

Emotions have no part in successful trading. The object is to maximize profit - and patience is a virtue. These rules are particularly applicable to small cap or so-called penny-stocks.

What is success I asked and received a unanimous answer : "Well success is finishing each quarter on the plus side with less than 10 trades". All three of the traders agreed that less is more, and "Fundamentals Trading" means you are buying into something real, not hype of what might happen if.

Never trade a stock whose only basis for existing is a technology that will revolutionize the world "IF". Fundamentals Trading is investment trading. There is no need for quick sales to make money. Most of the money is made by those who buy in to small companies with good fundamentals supported by excellent press and news releases. Good companies are also good world citizens - a failing in that area suggest short term outlooks by management that lead to disasters that can take the air out of all balloons.

I left and pondered which of the companies I covered could meet these rules. Much to the demand of the industry I have been assigned Falken Industries Ltd OTC : FLKI  and reporting on this non-conformist company has been a pleasant challenge. The company is incredibly successful, it's a global leader in product development, has a barn full of more than 160 product concepts distributed globally and as many in the pipeline, and its unique management has created a company whose counter-cyclical business is crisis proof.

This company should prove of interest to those that care that their investment be backed by a real company. Substance behind the trades, a real business, real products, real sales, you know the story.

Hype is a plenty in the environment of the OTC and Pinks, SPGE (Spongetech) being the latest of the "rabbits" recklessly pursued by home body day traders of the chat rooms. Well if we have it truthfully from the press including the New York Post, all the hype over this outfit was just that, hype. Its stock has been suspended and the SEC is taking an interest amongst other things on how a company claiming $ 30 million plus in sales only has $ 34,000 in the bank.

Let's for the sake of argument test the "Fundamentals Trading" rules against FLKI. Here is a company whose stock rose 896% from 5 cents to over 50 cents to make number 1 on CNN's Money "Best Performing Stocks". It has been hit with massive profit taking with rising volume and a declining share price. All of that stopped yesterday however. The volume dried up to a few thousand shares, and the stock stayed put. A confirmation of the bottom would involve a close on an uptick of .125 or more - but waiting is pointless we are told. The stock is at .19 cents and if we apply the rules a strong buy at up to .204. The high bid is .176 which would produce an entry bid of .211 + .003 or .214, tested against 110% of the lowest offer, ie 19 cents which results in a bid price of .209 + .003 or .212. That taken the stock should be purchased immediately at .212 cents (which will lead to taking the .19 cents and any non posted lower offers out.)

So, a 5000 share buy at .212 would cost me $ 1.060 ! I can handle that. And now, I know how the pros do it. I like the stability of rules that work, and the proven home runs of never a negative quarter makes me a believer. Today I'll manage to scrape up my $ 1,060, put an offer in for FLKI at .212 and pick up any stock available under that. The company is after-all a model target for "Fundamentals Trading". Incidentally from FLKI's latest press releases it seems to follow the rule of never a negative quarter

As an analyst for the Automobile After-Market Industry I had the pleasure of covering the world's largest or second largest professional trade event depending on whom you ask; The Paris International Trade Show Equip'Auto which was held between October 12-18 of this year - and which proved a confirmation of what I have lived and believed since 1997 when I started covering FLKI.

The show's highlight was the brilliantly executed launch by The Clean Plus© Product Group of FLKI's latest product conception "Brilliance". The launch was an overwhelming success - and the flurry amongst the professional press was unmistakable: a winner for an industry that has been chomping at the bit to get some proof that it will rise above its comatose state.

More than 800 persons registered for the different "Brilliance" presentations of the conception. The product as expected met the prerequisites of the European Innovation Award, but the unmistakable truth was that attendance of the Product Group's stand where the FLKI product conceptions were on display exceeded the attendance of all other stands present at the show. No bells or whistles yet they came - many from far away places in the Orient, Asia, Africa, South America and New Zealand to name just a few!

Manuel Garcia, Communications Officer opened the press conference with a reminder of what untold multiple awards and successes have long established for this company: "FLKI focuses on providing research and conceptions leading to the development of innovative products that perform at worse equal to and more often better than any targeted competing product and which will retail at 25 to 40% less than products it expects to replace."

In many cases, FLKI product conceptions simply have no competition.

FLKI product conceptions are currently distributed throughout the world in large retail chains, supermarket chains and large regional multinational retailers. It's "Premium" conceptions are present in specialty shops, auto centers, and thousands of gas stations. Currently FLKI is focusing substantial resources and attention in the fastest growing markets notably the BRIC.

FLKI has a barn full of successful product conceptions to its credit and a couple hundred in the pipeline. It's most ambitious project of late is the "Brilliance" professional product conception which targets a market largely held by two major fortune 500 companies and worth an estimated $ 170 million. FLKI's projects with the acknowledgment of my colleagues of the cloth that the 5 "Brilliance" products in and of themselves, will generate better than $ 12 million in distribution revenues and in excess of $ 4 million in operating profits in 2010.

Overall the market for currently available FLKI product conceptions is worth over $18 billion dollars and FLKI's recent change in strategic focus (see its press releases) puts it squarely in position to tap into a monstrous revenue steam.

It doesn't take much to see that this company's ability to focus its research and product development is well placed. Sales of its product conceptions are increasing on average 28% per quarter for this year and this amid recession and economic crisis. That communicates a simple but pointed message. An increasing amount of people are becoming performance and price conscious (even in the professional area where performance held a tight priority whatever the price) and are switching from overpriced larger established brands - which plays right into the hands of FLKI product conceptions.

Asked about the US retail markets, Garcia ever so guarded as one in the midst of rumors would have it, indicated that while talks and a tactical plan is well advanced, that the US strategy will likely be pursued by an acquisition or Strategic Alliance. Garcia reminded the audience that "America has been the golden land for small entrepreneurs which are the foundation end-users of FLKI product conceptions. However the US currently has one of the smallest small-business sectors among developed nations, and its self employment rate is lower than that in all countries except Luxembourg."

A quick investigation revealed that Garcia was ever so on point. The US self employment rate is 7.2%, that's five times lower than in Greece and Italy which have the highest self-employment rates. Only 11% of US manufacturing businesses are small firms, the third lowest rate among developed nations. In research and development only 25% are small firms, the third lowest rate among developed nations. All of a sudden I perused recent press releases by FLKI and noted the one announcing a significant shift in strategic planning announcing FLKI's decision to pursue acquisitions for its North American development. In sum FLKI has the strategy correct. Continue to expand its unequaled strengths overseas, and strike alliances or acquisitions for the United States.

Quite obviously it helps to have a business denominated in the Euro rather than the dollar – acquisitions will be 40% less expensive, and shareholders get an extra kicker when they purchase shares, hedging the dollar picking up a 40% bonus in the process.

Technically speaking FLKI's common stock, after rising 896% to over 50 cents earlier this year, has hit bottom with a bang trading sideways for the last two or three weeks and holding at between 19 and 20 cents on declining volume, testimony of the exhaustion of profit taking rushes. That bottom has been confirmed and one can feel the breakout - next stop in the 50 cent area, but no real resistance until 73 cents.

FLKI World Trade Unit has been the source of much interest because of its lock on raw materials permitting reductions of cost of 30% or more over the cost of its competitors - 150% reductions at the consumer level. FLKI product conceptions are conclusively noted for price stability.

With automotive and commercial vehicle manufacturers, lie the vendors of the automobile After-Market. There is a commonality to the bunch, all are struggling to reduce costs, many have recently announced intentions to significantly increase their sourcing from lower cost countries - often at a sacrifice to quality controls and supply line reliability. Fiat for example, recently stated that it intends to increase its sourcing from India by 66% this coming year.

Falken Industries Ltd, a growing company has made a reputation for itself for innovation, and brand support and building. Its product concepts are witnessed throughout the world and it has recently announced a growth by acquisition policy in respect to the United States. Its product concepts have grown capacity to the ability to fill from one pallet to three hundred in a day. Most recently its World Trade Unit has been the source of much interest because of its lock on raw materials permitting reductions of cost of 30% or more over the cost of its competitors. FLKI product conceptions are noted for price stability.

FLKI long ago realized that it was more important than ever to focus on innovative, high quality products and supply lines to learn how to defend the value of its conceptions and ensure products and services and resist demands that they match prices being quoted by lower cost suppliers of far lesser quality. "FLKI product conceptions always maintain the quality and price advantage" said Manuel Garcia, commpunications officer. World Trading its procurement affiliate ensures shorter supply chains, higher quality, innovation and value-added services like design and engineering support offered by FLKI globally, and notably for Western European parts and accessory suppliers. FLKI's World Trading is also in position to allow the OEMs to significantly reduce their production costs and speed time-to-market - benefits they will not enjoy if they source from suppliers in China and India. Unfortunately, the hidden costs of sourcing from low cost countries are often poorly understood by Purchasing Departments of FLKI competitors - leading to a significant advantage for distributors of FLKI product conceptions, the most well known of which is the Clean Plus® brand.

FLKI's World Trading and its tight and effective management of procurement in general was revealed incredibly valuable during the launch of its "Brilliance" line of paint refection products targetting the markets of two Fortune 500 companies and projected to generate sales of $ 12 million and gross operating revenues of $ 4,2 million in 2010.

Distributors marketing FLKI product conceptions in consumer auto care, professional auto care and detailing, DIY and Industrial products where present in mass at the Equip'Auto International trade show. More than 200 attended a full-day workshop where they learned FLKI's best practice techniques that have allowed it to negotiate more effectively, particularly when competing against low cost suppliers.

An attendee who also distributes competing products and who did not want to be identified commented in respect to the FLKI presentation : "We have distributed Clean Plus® products for the last five years. This presentation is the most specific and detailed program in the auto industry to unlock the current price fight on the market, it was an excellent mixture of theory and practice with eye opening examples."

"Defending one's price requires a team effort." added Garcia "That's why attendees included VPs, commercial directors, sales and account managers, marketing personnel, pricing analysts and engineers and other executives of our distributors, and many of our competitors."

Conceptions, development, production, logistics, procurement, price stability... Ah boring stuff. But quietly laboring and unnoticed for years FLKI has suddenly come to project its leadership position to the forefront.

FLKI has long been an industry leader in the concept and development of product conceptions that today fill the shelves of countless stores globally - and the cycle doesn't seem to end with FLKI product conceptons winning the European Innovation Award and its highly successful recent introduction of the "Brilliance" line of paint refectors. Much of this has been covered by the press and releases - Google FLKI.

Growing sales at the rate of 28% + each quarter is a feat to accomplish at the best of times, launching a series of 5 products with industry projections of $ 12 million in sales ($4 million in operating revenues) in this climate is an amazement. Yet both are those of FLKI in a market which is worthy of analysis if only to underline the dramatic difference in management and performance of this small innovative company swimming about in an ocean of competition owned by huge international conglomerates who seemingly have lost touch with their frail and at times failing albeit very small (proportionately) affiliates. What resource and time indeed could a Clorox, 3M, Honeywell and such giants have for these ailing subsidiaries ?

Hence the persistent rumors that FLKI and the Clean Plus® Product Group the best known perveyor of its product conceptions will prove the target of an acqisition.

The sudden success took better than ten years to develop. Management persisted in its belief that it would not emphasize or promote sales  until it had its house in order ie conceptions, development, production, logistics, procurement, price stability... Ah boring stuff. However today that emphasis which has kept the company in the back end unnoticed for years suddenly has come to project its leadership position to the forefront. Conception - time and again FLKI  conceptions are award winning. Production - it is currently in position to deliver from one to three hundred pallets of any product reference within a day. Logistics - at 96.7% perfect fill and time it is the industry leader. Procurement, its World Trading affiliate hedged up to three years ahead, delivers raw materials at 30% below the cost incurred by the competitors of its production partners leading to retail price differences on average of 25 to 40% and up to 150%. Price stability - its distribution network has experienced unprecedented price stability with the last increase in 2001 !

And this in a period where the industry has been challenged by an unprecedented crisis. Take just one of the markets where FLKI product conception Clean Plus® has an unambiguous leadership position : France.

Through September 30, 2009 the automobile accessory business at 7.6 billion euros (nearly 12 billion dollars) is down 38.1% in comparison to 2008. The  industry had already registered poor results for 2008 with an 11.7% drop in sales.

In the first quarter alone, sales dropped 42.6% in comparison to 2008. Exports were down 38% even sales of used parts and vehicles were  down 1.39 billion euro or 30.6%.

Compare FLKI product conception - up on sales to that industry alone 21.3% !

"We believe that signs of a French come-back are  clearly outlined in the performance of distributors of our product concepts" says Manuel Garcia, communications officer. While slow and guarded we expect distributors to close the year in that market with an increase of 25%, 20% at the worse.

The industry in France - is clearly  in overcapacity and burdenned with an excess of personnel. "To our regret a significant portion of our increase in results in France and elsewhere flows from encroachments on our competitors market shares. We would prefer to grow the market, but stand apparently unique and alone with our lean management practices" added Garcia. " We would prefer to grow the market as  a whole" concluded  Garcia.

Contrary to forecast established by FLKI, the industry believes the future  uncertain. The prevailing aids established for the industry in most European nations fail to favor new car development but to FLKI's  advantage will enhance the pool of used vehicles - consumers  of its product concepts. French industry analyst are guarded in their optimism and more than careful in any opinion relating to the French industrial  base.

Contrarian and true to its historical base, FLKI believes and projects substantial increases  for the distribution of its product concepts.

Reviewing performance in its activity sector FLKI seems justified in its optimism.

FLKI health related product conceptions, distributed globally through 380 distribution platforms are expected to generate well in excess of $ 60 million in sales and $ 20 million in operating revenues.


In the $3 billion dollar health industry, FLKI product conceptions go the gamut from disinfection, degreasing, and just plain cleaning. They are making their mark. From pandemics resulting from the swine flu, to disaster assistance from spilled oil tankers, to storm disasters FLKI products conceptions and notably those commercialized by the Clean Plus® Product Group are seemingly omnipresent. While the greatest volumes remains in hand care and degreasers where FLKI product conceptions enjoys a notable and global  leadership position, owning this company's common stock could be the shot in the arm your account has long awaited and which is likely long overdue.

FLKI health related product conceptions, distributed globally through 380 distribution platforms are expected to generate well in excess of $ 60 million in sales and $ 20 million in operating revenues.

We all know that healthcare has been of major interest. The key focus has been on increasing safety and reducing costs. For some, this may sound like an impossible task but for FLKI whose barn full of innovation and similarly garnered pipeline is a plenty, this only spells banal and routine.

FLKI is immediately positioned for a high growth future. Winner time and again of awards for innovation it has been devoting substantial resources to research and development. In fact as evident from its press and media coverage, it is developing and acquiring the technology for new products conceptions and tools to make health care safer and less expensive.

FLKI should be on your radar right NOW:

The company has huge market potential. Its existing ranges target a $ 14 billion dollar market – it won't take much to propel this company's stock into the multiple dollar range. Google FLKI and see its press and media.

The company has proven capable and has addressed urgent needs. With the H1N1 (Swine) Flu of great concern to all people, the need for hand care  wipes has exploded and will continue to be in high demand. FLKI product concepts are used by the military, civil defense, and numerous para-medical facilities. Its hand wipes are present throughout the food industry. This market segment will generate robust operating revenues. The market is expected to expand by 320% annually through 2014. FLKI is a recognized leader for its product conceptions in this area and assuredly likely to be a major participant. In fact operating revenues from this sector are expected to break $ 20 million by 2011.

FLKI known competitors tend to offer lesser quality inferior products and will need to play catch-up. This will likely take more than 2 years because FLKI has a strong and respected global leadership position for product development and conceptions. Of course there is the persistent rumor of an acquisition – which management has recently addressed in a news release.

So much for the fundamentals of this company – they evidently spell a strong buy. Let's now take a look at the technical aspects of this trading opportunity. Looking at the weekly chart here, you can clearly see that FLKI is trading above its key 20 and 50 moving average lines around .17 and .19 ranges which should provide some decent support. Looking at possible upcoming resistance, we see a previous and recent high of .501 and then what can readily be predicted as an upward move to .71 or higher. Any break over .19 cents is a strong signal to start accumulating this stock.
