NeWave (OTC
BB: NWAV) Opens New Division; Rapid Growth Continues |
|
Since giving OTC Journal members
a "first look" at NeWave in the February
15th edition, the stock has been an outstanding performer. It closed
at $2.75 that day, reopened at $2.80, and found its way to just north of
$4
one month later for a net 35% short term gain.
NeWave offers a service badly
needed by those interested in setting up their own online store. Through
wholly owned subsidiary www.onlinesupplier.com,
members are provided with a turnkey online solution for setting up a web
site to selling goods. $29.95 per month gets you the whole solution, and
it can be set up in four easy steps.
Lest you think online commerce is
not a growth sector, I suggest you consider this table, which is already
one year old. This table predicts 121 million people in the US will be
shopping online in 2005: nearly half the population. The shoppers are looking
for two things: convenience, and bargains.
Along with online shoppers, there
are also online stores. As the 450,000 individuals who make a living on
eBay have already learned, the barriers to entry for opening an online
store are minimal. This is where NeWave comes in. This company provides
a turn key solution for next to nothing if you want to open your own online
store.
NeWave's growth is indeed
rapid, as evidenced by the last press release the company issued. On April
21st, NeWave announced it would be relocating to a new 16,000 square
foot facility. In the current space, the company has about 60 full time
customer service reps. The new space will allow the company to expand to
100 to meet the current demand.
In the same news release, NeWave
announced
it had surpassed 50,000 registered members: This means 50,000 people have
now paid a fee to the company to access its service. This is quite an accomplishment,
when one considers NeWave only began operations last August.
After the close today, NeWave
announced it would be opening a new division to fill the demand on the
bargain or deep discount side of the business model. The company is opening
a new division, which will begin operations on July 1st. This Division,
known as "Discount Online Warehouse" will specialize in large volumes of
deep discount, overstocked items. This will allow the company to further
leverage it's subscriber base and help with customer retention.
As you can see from the chart, the
stock has been grinding sideways for the past month after appreciating
nicely during our first month of coverage.
The March quarterly financial statement
will give us a first look at this company's financial condition. It should
come out in about 2 weeks. Growth numbers as compared to the same quarter
will be infinite, as the company did not exist one year ago. Revenues over
the December quarter will be much more revealing.
At some point in time the company
will publish NeWave's audited financial statements for 2003. They
began operations in August. Therefore, we will be able to compare five
months of operations in 2003 against the first three months in 2004 and
compute the growth rate. I believe it will be off the charts.
To date, 50,000 people have become
paying customers. For competitive reasons, the company has not disclosed
how many are ongoing paying customers. I believe customer retention is
the key to the company's long term success. If customers make enough money
to justify the minimal monthly fee of $29.95, NeWave's monthly recurring
revenue will continue to grow rapidly.
The stock has been grinding sideways
in concert with lousy market conditions. There is almost no sell side volume
on this stock. Accumulate before the rest of the market wakes up to this
company.

response to demand from traditional liquidators and salvage suppliers,
we've established Discount Online Warehouse. Voluminous orders for premium
specialty or promotional items and incentive products will be channeled
through Discount Online Warehouse.'He added, 'In many instances, inventories
for DOW will be fulfilled directly from the manufacturer's overstock, making
bulk sales to liquidators, extremely price competitive. We look forward

stream.'
