Remember Imaging
Technologies (OTC BB: IMTO)? Is the Stock Back on the Launching Pad? |
|
When I was first asked to look at
Imaging
Technologies, I was reluctant to publish on the company. Despite having
completed a two year transition to an entirely new business model, pulling
off a fundamental turn around, and having enormous growth potential, the
stock was trading at only $.015- yes, that's a penny and a half. I wasn't
sure if our readership had any interest in stocks that were trading at
a penny and a half.
I thought to myself: people are really
only interested in ideas that can make money. After all, if the stock is
only $.015, how much lower can it go? I then asked the readership if they
would be interested in learning about a company trading at $.015 with $200,000
in positive operational cash flow per quarter. I got dozens of emails with
an emphatic yes.
I decided to go ahead and publish
on the stock, and was absolutely amazed at the response. IMTO announced
it had made the transition into the highly profitable PEO (Professional
Employee Organization) market, and was already managing 4500 employees
for client companies.
By way of reminder, PEO organizations
are an outsourcing service for a company's employment needs. Once you retain
a PEO to replace your Human Resources Department, your employees formally
become employees of the PEO. They just show up for work at your place of
business, and the service saves you a fortune and allows management to
concentrate more fully on running the business.
Through the power of numbers the
PEO has the ability to negotiate better pricing on many employee related
costs like health insurance, pension plans and 401K's, workmen's comp,
etc. This allows the client companies to offer employees better benefit
packages for the same dollars.
A PEO with 4500 employees generates
about $350,000 per day in cash flow, and $25,000 per day in gross profits.
IMTO
has achieved that level. The infrastructure is in place, so incremental
increases in business yield higher margins at the bottom line.
I published a Trading Alert on IMTO
on July
11th. The stock opened the following day at $.023 and throughout the
course of the day found its way to $.04. It traded 34.3 million shares.
If you bought early you could have
made 70% on your money in one day. Amazing- If the stock had been $2.23
and hit $4 that day, the world would have taken notice. If the stock had
been $22.30 and hit $40 that day, they would have been calling for an interview
on CNBC. Nevertheless, the return to the investor is the same.

IMTO
Back in the News- Reports Major New Contract in Medical Division |
 |
It's time to take another look at
IMTO.
They were back in the news today with major new contract signings. They
are beginning to penetrate the PEO market in the medical industry, and
are starting with contract nursing services to acute care facilities and
hospitals in Arizona.
IMTO has received approval
for a proposed contract with Tempe St. Luke's Hospital beginning this month.
St. Luke's is part of the ASICS Hospital Group, which consists of five
hospitals in the Phoenix area. The Company has received an initial contract
with the ASICS Group, which is forecast at $300,000 for the next 9-12 months.
IMTO has current proposals
under review to an additional 10 hospitals in the Phoenix area, which are
anticipated to be approved in the next several weeks. These additional
agreements are forecast to provide $1 million in annual revenues.
In short, the company is continuing
to add employees to its services and therefore growing rapidly.
The stock has completed a pull back
and found support in the $.025 range. As you can see from the chart, the
stock has pulled back into the middle of its support level, suggesting
it has digested its past gains and is poised to start climbing again.
As this company continues to grow,
the stock will no doubt want to challenge that $.04 level once again, which
is 70% higher than today's closing level. Today's news release, which came
out after the close, will probably give observers the opportunity to see
if $.04 is still resistance, or simply gives way to higher levels.
Here is the complete text of today's
news release for your review:
