IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 11, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- "With leading market pundits like Jim Cramer extolling the future for equities in the infrastructure category, small cap investors are searching the up-and-comers for signs of success," stated SmallCap Sentinel analyst D.R. Clark. "It is often difficult to identify those with staying power and a real business model. But deals with major customers can certainly serve to validate a company's acumen and perhaps, profit opportunities."
The informational report "Better Mousetrap Files" has been made available free of charge at www.SmallCapSentinel.com and will address the rise of interest in infrastructure companies including Material Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:MTTG), Foster Wheeler Ltd. (NASDAQ:FWLT), Halliburton Co. (NYSE:HAL), and Schlumberger LTD (NYSE:SLB).
"But what can often indicate that a company indeed has the 'goods' is third-party validation," said Clark. "One way to gather some understanding is to see if the emerging infrastructure company has deals with larger companies. For example, Material Technologies, Inc. just announced that their Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor (EFS) System has been selected for the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Steel Bridges Testing Program. This program will evaluate inspection methods capable of detecting growing cracks in bridges."
"One would assume that the Federal Highway Administration sees value in Material Technologies to award a contract for such a critical purpose," Clark added.
Material Technologies Inc., also known as MATECH, was founded in 1983 and is based in Los Angeles. It is an engineering, research and development company that specializes in technologies to measure microscopic fractures in metal structures and to monitor metal fatigue.
