New Dawn Mining Joins AGORACOM 100 With $7.48M In Revenue

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:12 AM on Thursday, February 26th, 2009

In 2008 New Dawn Mining (ND: TSX) produced 8,651 oz of gold and generated $US 7.48 million in sales.

An emerging gold exploration company with one producing mine, New Dawn is concentrating its exploration and mine development efforts on gold projects in Zimbabwe, and South Africa. The company retains an NI 43-101 compliant resource of 977,819 oz. (3.9-5.0 g/t) gold reserves, with additional inferred mineral resources of 347,600 oz. (5.1g/t) gold.

Symbol: ND-TSX / Shares Outstanding: 29,015,000 / Market Cap: $14.5M

On February 26th, New Dawn Mining announced:

New Dawn’s Turk Mine Moves from Care and Maintenance to Mine Development

  • Its 100% owned Turk Mine in Zimbabwe is moving from care and maintenance to active mine development. The decision by management came as a result of the recent positive changes to the Monetary Policy in Zimbabwe made by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, whereby gold producers can both market and sell their gold directly and that they are able to retain 92.5% of their gold sales in foreign exchange.
  • Subject to the full implementation of the recent changes in the Monetary and Fiscal regime in Zimbabwe, in due course New Dawn anticipates moving into a full mining mode

AGORACOM Mourns The Loss Of George Koutroubis

Posted by AGORACOM at 11:29 AM on Monday, February 23rd, 2009

It is with deep sadness that we report the loss of our friend, brother, husband and son George Koutroubis.  I don’t have much more to say right now, except to say with every fiber of my being that George was the kind of friend you dream of having in your life.  The first guy to lend a hand, pick up the tab, crack a joke, call to congratulate you.

This was a senseless murder. We are all numb for now.  Rage will come later but for now we simply mourn the loss of our brother – George Koutroubis.  I can’t believe I just wrote that line. Can’t.

In the spirit of peaceful thoughts, I leave you with images from our last great celebration with him.  His Christmas wedding to beautiful Rhoda.  The tremendous love and affection permeates every photo.

China ACM (CADC:OTCBB) Q2 Profit Up 73% To $2.6 Million

Posted by AGORACOM at 11:07 AM on Thursday, February 19th, 2009

It is no secret that I am extremely bullish on Chinese Small-Cap stocks for the long run.  Quite simply, I love them for a few reasons.  On a macro level, China is unstoppable.  On a micro level, Chinese companies tend to run real businesses with real products, customers, revenues and profits.

As such, if you’re a successful Chinese small-cap company today, you have a good chance at being an incredibly big company tomorrow.  In the same breath, investors have an opportunity to grow and propsper from the rise of a new economic powerhouse.  An opportunity that only comes about every couple hundred years.  I want to be  a part of that and so should you.

One company investors should be considering is AGORACOM client, China Advanced Construction Materials.  If you assume I am horribly conflicted (which you should) then let the latest Q2 numbers speak for themselves.

A little background info first.  80% of China ACM revenues are directly derived from major state-owned construction companies.  China ACM is a producer of advanced construction materials for large scale commercial, residential, and infrastructure developments. The company is primarily focused on producing and supplying a wide range of advanced ready-mix concrete materials for highly technical, large scale, and environmental construction projects

Financial Highlights for Q2 Ended December 31, 2008

  • Revenue increased 52% to $10.8 million, up from $7.1 million in the corresponding period in 2007.
  • Gross profit increased by 169% to $4.0 million, compared with gross profit of $1.5 million for the same period in 2007.
  • Net income increased 73% to $2.6 million, as compared to a $1.5 million for the same period in 2007.  This translates into 19 cents per share.
  • Company guidance is for full year Net Income of $9 million.
