Was haltet Ihr von Nanotechnologie ? Ich denke das in diesen Sektor noch ein großes Potential vorhanden ist. Die Firma Nanophase ( WKN 910885 ) ist spezialisiert auf die Herstellung von Nanokristalle. Die von Nanophase hergestellten Nanokristalle finden auf unterschiedlichsten Gebieten Verwendung.
Neben der Verwendung als Spezialpoliermittel für die Halbleiterproduktion sind Nanokristalle außerdem in der Kosmetikindustrie sowie bei der Produktion von Materalien mit hoher Widerstandsfähigkeit stark gefragt. Zuletzt wurde die Geschwindigkeit für den Produktionsprozess der Nanokristalle um 30 % verbessert.
Fundamentaldaten:
Zum 31.03.2001 verfügte Nanophase über eine Liquidität von 14,8 Millionen US-Dollar sowie ein Eigenkapital von 19,9 Millionen US-Dollar. Im ersten Quartal wurde bei einen Umsatz von 1,07 Millionen US-Dollar ein Verlust von 1,11 Millionen US-Dollar-respektiv - 0,08 US-Dollar je Aktie verbucht. Die Prognose für das Gesamtjahr wurde zuletzt von 10 auf 7,5 bis 8 Millionen reduziert. Trotz dessen bin ich von diesem Sektor und dieser Aktie überzeugt.
ROMEOVILLE, Ill., Apr 11, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Nanophase Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NANX), a leader in nanomaterials and nanoengineered product solutions, announced that its first quarter 2003 revenue was approximately $1.66 million, or about 4% above the high end of the Company's previous revenue guidance. This represents an increase of approximately 18% compared to the first quarter of 2002 and a sequential quarterly increase of approximately 54% compared to the fourth quarter of 2002.
