RIDGELAND, Miss., Sept. 19, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Knobias, Inc. (OTCBB:KNBS) announced today that it has selected InPlay Technologies (Nasdaq:NPLA) as the SPOT of the week in the Knobias Small-Cap "ClipReport."
InPlay Technologies is a licensor of patented, proprietary emerging technologies. NPLA offers a platform and public company infrastructure to bring "post-R&D" technologies to market. NPLA was founded to commercialize its internally developed Duraswitch electronic switch technologies, and has executed license agreements with switch manufacturers and OEMs worldwide.
The Bulls say:
-Guaranteed Growth: One thing's for sure, unless Delphi Corp (DPH) defaults; NPLA is poised to grow revenues three-fold by 2007. An exclusive automotive licensing of NPLA's Duraswitch, signed in 2000, provides that Delphi will make minimum royalty payments in July of each of the next three years: $1 million in 2004; $2 million in 2005 (reflected in June Q2 results); $3 million in 2006; and, $6 million in 2007. Profits should scale accordingly (or better) due to NPLA's high margin business model.
The Bears say:
-Delphi Dependence: Until the many other opportunities pan out, NPLA is very dependent on royalty payments from Delphi. Although these payments continue to grow for three years, the auto parts industry remains "financially challenged" and disruption of royalty payments would be devastating for NPLA.
