Worth Reading. Timely Stock Information Rated Strong BUY  OTC : FLKI !

Falken Industries Ltd. (FLKI) engages in the design, development, manufacture, and commercialization of high end chemicals and impregnated wipe solutions for industrial, professional and consumer uses.
 
The company's products compete in three primary product segments:
* Industrial, from degreasers, to disinfection with customers including industrial giants, government and military
* Professional, from high end compounds, to nano-polishes, with customers ranging from chain car washes to trucking wash centers
* Consumer, present in hundreds of retail shops, notably gas stations, two lines are offered a Premium High End Line and a Classic line for price sensitive markets.
Reasons FLKI has a competitive edge
 
According to information readily available in public forums and recent filings there are several factors that give FLKI a competitive advantage in its target markets.
 
For starters, the company’s research and manufacturing base is in Europe in an important traffic center. “We believe the location of our production units makes the purchase of raw materials and sales of our products very convenient and reduces the costs associated with sales while reducing freight costs." Said Manuel Garcia, the company’s communication officer.
 
FLKI has also developed products that "meet all of Europe’s stringent standards, which is a direct entry point to the North American market since those standards mostly exceed US requirements. “Due to our strict technical standards and quality control in the production process, our product conceptions have become well-known brands in their markets throughout the world."
 
Another advantage FLKI has is competitive pricing. The company's products feature a cost and price advantage arising from its independently owned intellectual property, extensive hedging programs, and efficiencies. In 2011 the company performed 100% delivery in time and quantum, 98.4% of the time, the best in the industry. Projections for 2012 are to improve on that.
 
For example, FLKI's consumer products are typically sold 25-40% under the price of its largest competitors (3M’s Meguiars®, Sonax, Clorox’Armor All®, AutoGlym, Turtle Wax®, Formula 1 to name but a few) which offer comparable products. In the professional and industrial area the advantage is equaled or exceeded. “As a result, we believe such products will continue to gain market share and be instrumental in improving FLKI’s competitive position and brand influence" continued Garcia.
 
And finally, FLKI has long-term relationship with key laboratories and intellectual teams, which contribute to the company's growing expertise and reputation in the field of integrated chemical and wipe manufacture. "In addition, we have an experienced team of in-house technicians which contributes to our product's technical content and ultimately, our core competitiveness," added Garcia.
 
The trademark Clean Plus® helps FLKI compete in a "fierce market"
 
FLKI and the product groups operating distribution of its product conceptions are regularly honored with recognition for its branded products. FLKI owns a large number of intellectual properties.
 
The Clean Plus® trademark for example "represents a comprehensive recognition" by the industry worldwide, of FLKI's "market, quality, efficiency and development and fully proves the market acceptance of Clean Plus® branded products, simultaneously improving the company's intangible assets and bolstering its ability to compete in the even increasingly fierce market" a recent press release stated.
 
"For many years, the company has operated with a focus on honesty and credit, constantly increasing investment in technical improvements and aiming to both create a famous brand and form a good image. The company attaches great importance to intensifying the public identification of the enterprise and consolidating the influence of famous brands both in the corporate operating ideology and system and also the corporate image construction." Garcia said.
 
 
Could 2012 be a breakout year for FLKI?
I THINK SO – SO SHOULD YOU
Trading at 30% of its book value with EPS of 45% The Stock is in my view a STONG BUY
And true to historical performance two swing trades so far this year with 100%+

A Strategy that Pays off big time - Rated Strong BUY - OTC : FLKI

Falken Industries Ltd (FLKI) pushed forward with its business when many of its competitors were slowing down – it has become an industry constant.
 
"Many of our competitors were wrapping up sales operations during the so-called crisis, scaling down their workforce, and going into hibernation until the storm had past," said Manuel Garcia, FLKI’s Communication Officer, in a recent press release. "We saw an opportunity to push our business forward when everybody else was taking a break, or worse yet conceding market share ."

The strategy may have paid off – big time.
 
Falken (OTC : FLKI), which is global leader in professional, industrial and consumer product conceptions, best known for those commercialized by the Clean Plus® Product Group in Scandinavia – see www.cleanplus.com and www.falkenltd.com offers daily productions of 160 products over a global distribution network. Revenues are expected to record substantial growth this year in 19 major markets. The company which has been profitable since 2009, reported record profits for 2011 at .0114 cents per share (EPS). Its common stock suffering from the same ills as some blue chips, is selling at 36% or less of book value.
 
Unlike its competitors, FLKI enjoys substantial price advantages from the development of years of hedging strategies for chemical and other components essential to the production of its conceptions. Unique in the industry for its high end logistics and production, FLKI recorded 98.4% on time and complete deliveries, all markets combined.
 
An innovative business model
 
Another differentiator between FLKI and its competitors is its distribution business model.
 
FLKI competitors have become notorious for outsourced customer care and the poverty of customer support has become a cliché, with product quality suffering from extensive and ill-supervised production licensing agreements – creating a market where any product made, the brand goes on. FLKI long ago reversed the experience through a "proprietary business model” called Super Distribution which includes compensation and support which compensates distributors for both customer loyalty and new customer acquisition" Garcia added.
 
Will 2012 be a breakout year for FLKI?
 
I believe it will, and the stock at these prices is in my view a guaranteed 200/300%. Do your own check you'll agree.

ITS BEEN SAID BEFORE – BUT D.R.M.’s LEAD CONTINUES… OTC : FLKI

It’s a relatively small company, assuredly, but there is nothing little about this company’s leadership in industry practices. Much of its success of course lies in creativity and an uncanny ability to conceive and manufacture product concepts for markets simply ignored by its competitors – markets such as women; 92% of the market for auto care, and 57% of this company’s consumer product sales. The company, Falken Industries is traded on the OTC, is reporting and rated “Current Information” under symbol FLKI. Most on the street say it’s a great buy and some have rated Stong Buy – for what its worth !

This company whose fundamentals are beyond reproach, made its mark as an industry leader many years back and its acclaim was loudly sounded in the trade. It gave new meaning to the term “Supply Chain” management, expanding it beyond its traditional goal of low costs and efficiency. The company developed an uncanny ability to shape and respond to shifts in demand from its global distribution network, and pumped out innovative product conceptions. This started in 1997 and continues to this day. “For Falken, our performance in emphasizing distribution support translates to productivity and market share leadership” said Manuel Garcia, Communications Officer.

As a trade analyst, I have come to reflect on efficiency, profitability, and growth within our industry. I immediately question common current practices of squandering opportunities. A lack of alignment between assets creates disharmony, as each party in the chain operates under dissimilar definitions and contradictory hierarchies. But as demonstrated by Falken and its distribution methods, opportunities exist to create collective information management practices, which when implemented, lower dependency on labor-intensive, duplicative, and processes vulnerable to errors.

Implementation of course is the difference. The Automobile After-market industry is greatly fragmented with very small players controlling much of the mix of products offered in the market. Theories abound. For Falken it’s called Directed Records Management (D.R.M.) – what is it? It is an approach to business record keeping which standardizes cataloging and if applied correctly and with sufficient dedicated resources, helps to ensure clear and accurate views of the business and its performance. The absence of such processes increases business trials and decreases profitability and performance. The information so managed by Falken relates to its needs, for basic information on advertisers, brands, vendors, and other campaign details that need to be shared across its internal and global distribution system, ensuring coordination applications, and processes in order for data to be consistently and accurately reported – accounting for countless cultural differences which taint reporting.

Getting information of course is difficult. Falken with 380 distributors throughout the world and a leading global brand (Clean Plus® see www.cleanplus.com), is always in fear of asking for or letting go of information that some may consider confidential. But what Falken is asking for here, is NOT proprietary; it's basic descriptive information — media names, product names, commercial titles, and a few more descriptive values. The data is shared information, for the most part wholly disorganized and processed in methods that were invented decades ago, when there were far less complex supply chains.

There is always a concern that by identifying faults in its distributor’s processes, the company will diminish its prospects for greater sales. Realistically, this negligible however, the amount that may be lost will be gained in other areas. When Falken teams proceed to such ventures, they necessarily review all the components affecting the cost-benefit analysis. A small fundamental capital loss can cascade into a huge capital gain through its supply chain superiority.

Excellence is reached when partners have fulfilled their roles, adhered to industry best practices, and made way for the other members of the chain to focus on their own roles. Falken is noted for shifting responsibility to the right place in the chain, away from downstream parties who have no ownership or primary knowledge of the accuracy of the information. In fact, these downstream parties have been held responsible for errors. What we are witnessing, is Falken’s foundation of repeatable, documentable best practices.

Realistically, Falken has not avoided being overwhelmed by an explosion of new data to process and analyze. While not so long ago it dealt in megabytes the company is now dealing with terabytes. The expanded information now has more uses and affiliations, thereby rendering other’s current methods obsolete. The new data is organized by hundreds of segmentations. Falken is not limited by legacy technology systems leading to disparate data, conflicting hierarchies, and intended-to-be-temporary workouts, short-term fixes, and stop-gap solutions. Falken’s method does not bypass known problems in a system. It applies no temporary fixes that would imply that a proper solution to the problem is needed. Such heirloom practices have graduated in certain companies to permanent practices which have evolved into institutionalized bad habits which have in turn become a barrier to innovation and creativity.

“At Falken we apply operating procedures ranging from how to get information into order entry, asset management, workflow to measurement systems which lead to the emergence of innovative business models, and cost savings and additional revenue.” Said Garcia.

Falken’s D.R.M. excellence arises out of the company's ability to make decisions quickly and effectively. “It permits our management to make decisions based on what is best for the entire supply chain, rather than one specific organizational component.” Added Garcia

FALKEN INDUSTRIES LTD (Symbol: FLKI)

FALKEN Continues its Rapid Growth with Q1 2012 Revenues Increasing more than 30% Over Q4 2011 and Record Profits.

FALKEN Industries Ltd (www.falkenltd.com) (OTC:FLKI) announced today that revenues for the 1Q 2012 were up more than 30% quarter over quarter with record profits achieved.

Falken said after its YE 2011 outstanding results that it expected to achieve record revenue growth in 2012. Revenues for 2012 are currently trending well above 2011 continuing the rapid growth projected for the company.

In 2011, the company recorded strong earnings of .0114 per share.

These results have been achieved without the addition of any new distribution revenue centers in the quarter and are attributed to organic growth across its existing distribution network and direct professional truck, car and detailing product businesses.

FALKEN expects to add a minimum of two (2) new Super Distribution revenue centers in each of Q2 and 3 2012.

The trend for revenue growth for the company is not expected to change in 2012 or 2013.

Multiple Super Distribution Platform openings are being planned throughout 2012 and 2013 with continued expansion of its specialty product lines.

The overall product mix now includes over 160 sku’s.

Product relevance is a key factor in FALKEN’s growth model.

Ethics and Branding Policies are Part of the Solution in Emerging Markets OTC : FLKI

Falken and its Clean Plus® Product Group, for all its size and colossal competitors, have accomplished great things in emerging markets. Manuel Garcia, its communications officer, in fact emphasizes the importance of maintaining and developing ethical footing in general, but in particular in emerging markets.

When it comes to cleaning and maintenance, disinfection and health protection products launched in emerging markets, brand owners like FLKI have a lot of issues to address in order to ensure their continuing success. It’s not a simple product launch. Falken must take into account the societal norms and social taboos of the region it is attempting to penetrate, and also consider the area’s economic situation. It is an area in which it excels !

Garcia, speaking of FLKI’s strong position in the manufacture of consumer, professional and industrial chemicals and wipes says that perhaps Africa offers a signpost to developing health protection consumption amongst low-income groups. FLKI, he says, has made some serious inroads in a number of African nations by teaming up with international organizations whose goal is to end poverty, to supply free health care protection to children and disaster victims. “The best example of this is the popularity of Clean Plus® Hand & Body Wipes, uniquely impregnated with FLKI’s proprietary SN10® solution,” Garcia explains. “The wipe is lypoprotective, anti-allergenic, and anti-bacterial. It is affordable and effective making it something of a shining light in the developing world.”

According to Garcia, health protection brands like those conceived by FLKI should continue to maintain and develop their ethical footing. “Away from schools, the issue of education is also key in many developing markets, where religious or social taboos have for example, a less-than-liberating effect on the female population,” Garcia says, adding that education campaigns, especially in more outlying regions, appear to have the capacity to change attitudes on health care.

Each emerging market is different in its own way when it comes to its social barriers, and each offers unique challenges. Take India, for example, where Garcia says the sight of charitable and socially-conscious brands might be regarded as window dressing.

With a view to long-term market development, investment in education, as well as sponsoring the development of small-scale health protection businesses, Garcia says it would appear to be an excellent opportunity for all players to develop an ethical position. “While broader involvement would certainly help satisfy a significant need, it would also encourage the first steps towards the development of a broader health protection market in some of the world’s most populace areas, surely making it a win-win situation for all,” he says.

Falken Industries Ltd OTC : FLKI is a diversified industrial conglomerate that operates in Chemicals, Wet Wipe and Biodegradable Technology.

TRENTON, NEW JERSEY--(Marketwire - May 11, 2012) - Falken (OTCBB:FLKI), through the Clean Plus® Product Group, took a next important step for the development of sales and distribution of its product conceptions.

Today S.O.M.U.E.K.S. a key and major distributor of major brands associated with car care in Turkey, selected Clean Plus® overall, and signed a Super Distribution contract with Falken's Clean Plus® Product Group for the sole distribution rights in Turkey of the Clean Plus® "Pro" and "Industry" lines.

Clean Plus® quality and performance makes the difference, the products simply work!" said M. Ceber - Managing Director of S.O.M.U.E.K.S.

"We are also proud to offer the Turkish market inspiring and innovative vehicular care products and support systems.

What do I think – and what’s the scuttlebutt in Europe ?

It‘s not every day that investors have an opportunity to capitalize on a strong U.S. Dollar by buying a Euro-based multinational company with impressive financials. 

Falken Industries Ltd. (OTC : FLKI) is a leading global manufacturer and commercialization of high-end specialty cleaning products for industrial, professional and consumer uses.  This relatively small company has been rated a “Strong Buy” and at its current undervalued share price could be a terrific buy.

Under its primary brand name Clean Plus®, Falken Industries has successfully launched more than 160 professional and consumer auto care products which are sold in over a dozen international markets, including recently signed Turkey.  Clean Plus® products are currently available in over 1000 petrol stations and other outlets in Europe.

This worldwide presence is due to the company’s unique cooperative business alliances which allow for the accelerated marketing of its Clean Plus® product line across national borders, marketed by networks of leading distributors in each country. 

In another sign of the company’s growing success, in 2012 the company plans to more than double its production capacity in Europe for its biodegradable product line.  With this expansion, Falken Industries is poised to become an industry leader in the biodegradable and bio-based products market, which is growing by more than 20% annually.

Key Investor Points

● Falken Industries sales volumes have doubled over the past two years, with continued record growth: Q1 2012 revenues have increased 30% over Q4 2011 along with record profits.

Rock Solid Fundamentals

Let’s face it: most penny stocks trading in this range have very little value; they typically lack revenue, products, or discernible business operations. FLKI is a rare exception: a solid OTC company with real revenue.  And with a market cap of only $5 million in a $1 billion market for cleaning products, the potential for growth is enormous.

Falken Industries continues to rack up impressive revenue consistent with its steady rise in performance over the past few years.  John David, one of the nation’s most respected analysts on the automobile aftermarket industry, describes the company’s fundamentals as “beyond reproach.” 

Revenues and profits are expected to continue to rise throughout 2012.  Operating margins should widen throughout the year due to the expected increases in volumes and the related improvement in fixed cost coverage. 

In addition, recent 4Q earnings per share were a record 1 cent, representing a 25% + valuation on the current share price.   John David notes: “Most on the street say it’s a great buy and some have rated Strong Buy,” concluding: “the company at its present quote is, in my view, obviously considerably undervalued.”

Why Now?

Despite record impressive performance and profits, Falken Industries is trading at a heavy discount at: 30% of its book value.  This anomaly is largely due to the current economic downturn in Europe, which has affected exchange rates between the Dollar and the Euro.  Since the company’s financial reports are primarily denominated in Euro, the monetary figures are artificially diminished as a consequence of U.S. Dollar reporting.  This has undeservedly fueled investor’s concerns.

Falken management has responded with initiatives designed to capitalize on the weaker Euro and stronger Dollar by expanding into US and Canadian markets. The trade-off is huge, offsetting by far any currency conversion loss.  It is only a matter of time before the stock begins to reflect the fact that its products have up to a 50% price advantage over competitors.  In Europe, the crisis has enabled unprecedented market share expansion for the company.

All this presents, in my view, a unique opportunity for investors to buy at an artificially low PPS before the inevitable adjustment of the currency exchange rates reveals the true strengths of this rapidly growing company.

Time to wake up and smell the coffee !

This Legendary Company is capitalizing on growing opportunities OTC : FLKI

This innovative multinational company started literally at the bottom and has expanded to more than 160 products in over a dozen countries – read on!

Falken Industries Ltd OTC : FLKI is a diversified industrial conglomerate that operates in chemicals, wet wipe and biodegradable technology. The company is the concept behind more than 160 products distributed through a network of global platforms, and is the recipient of trade awards for innovations, biodegradability, and environmental and health quality standards.

Falken invented the concept of wipes for auto care, professional vehicular maintenance, and numerous industrial and military uses.  The company is a key player in a $20 billion global market.

As any mom knows, wet wipes have long been a staple in baby care.  From there the market has expanded to general sanitary and cleaning products. Building on the knowledge that mothers were no strangers to wipes, Falken Industries’ engineers and product design teams developed a female-friendly range of auto care cleaning and maintenance products. With 57% of its product lines designed for female shoppers, the company has expanded in a number of areas beyond consumer products - and has done so globally.

Increasing numbers of consumers are indulging in value-added disposable items like automobile cleaning wipes. The expansive reliance on wipes in industrial, professional, and consumer applications has led to an exploding worldwide demand for convenience cleaning products – an opportunity not lost on Falken’s management.

Wet wipe technology started at the bottom - or more precisely - the baby’s bottom. Over the past fifteen years professional and industrial products such as those in Falken’s ranges have evolved to include degreasers, paint removers, disinfection, hard cleansing in addition to traditional hand care for all levels of the work force. Falken’s professional and industrial targeted markets are presently about 40% of global sales for this segment of the wipe sector.

Europe, Falken’s primary current market, ranks second after North America with aggregate sales of some $4 billion in 2010, and expanding. South America and Eastern Europe, where Falken is quickly setting up landing platforms and distribution, are expected to generate over smaller bases, some $551 million and $558 million respectively by 2015.

Falken has an unequivocal technological leadership position across the three major segments of the wipe business: consumer, professional and industrial cleaning wipes. Falken Product Groups delivered 187,000 tons of its product lines in 2011, up from 125,000 tons in 2010.

Wipe sales aimed at professional and industrial uses in which Falken excels are of course affected by professional and industrial production. Despite the economic downturn, the market for Falken’s consumer, and professional wipes continued to develop, increasing 5.7% in 2010 followed by 6.5% in 2011.

In professional and industry applications, Falken offers concentrates on having the right product at the right time. The right product can make all the difference in terms of use, result and economy. Simply, the use of rags laundered or not and their demonstrated unsanitary consequence, underlines the preferable alternative for impregnated and disposable wipes.

Falken conceived and manufactures its products for distribution by the Clean Plus® Product Group. These wipes are sold under various collections, most notably under the Clean Plus® trademark. Falken’s technological leadership has resulted in the following advantages of its wipe products:

     1. As a rule, Falken’s products are more absorbent notably when compared with non-cotton material.

     2. Falken products are fully disposable and earth friendly, far less expensive as an alternative to accounting for, washing and drying rags.

     3. The spread of contamination is a key point particularly for the alimentary industry. Falken disposable and biodegradable wet wipes are the better alternative.

     4. Rags are in the past for industry. They lack quality and performance consistency, are unpredictable and demonstrably poorer performers.

In the professional and industrial area, wipes offer major benefits: sanitary, fresh, and precut to size, they provide a high level of convenience. In the food industry, they eliminate the danger of cross contamination. The global demand for Falken’s wet wipe technology wipes is growing: in 2010, wet wipes constituted 67% of the total wipe market.

Conclusion:

Developed markets will undoubtedly stay ahead in the market because of the affluent population and general living standards and trends, emphasizing the demand for time-saving products. These include Western Europe, where Falken has a dominant presence, and North America, where Falken, benefiting from a weaker Euro is initiating landing platform implantations.  Developing regions like Eastern Europe and South America are expected to increase the demand for wipes due to industrial expansion and economic growth.

Falken is taking steps to capitalize on these opportunities for expansion, and is continually introducing innovative products. The company’s research and product development teams are committed to ensuring customer satisfaction together with a wide array of product choices. The Eco Pledge certification found on all company products testifies to Falken’s commitment to environmentally-friendly products.

Falken Industries is a rags-to-riches success story that began with a vision that developed and expanded the technology behind the wipes used on baby’s bottoms, and applied it to the consumer, professional and industrial areas.  There can be little doubt that demand for Falken and Clean Plus® products will continue to grow – and offer in my view, an outstanding opportunity for investors.

FLKI is trading cautiously, as investors digested economic reports. A slowing US economy is immaterial to FLKI’s primary business, but they were holding their breath for new policies to spark growth in the euro zone, including a fresh batch of capital injections. In fact FLKI stock has only suffered because of an erroneous perception that its performance is directly linked to the Euro. As such Investors have made the stock a play on the Euro driving the price down to barely a third of net book value, and the PPS ration to 50% !

Moody's revised its outlook on the EU to "negative" from "stable" The ECB came out strong with a commitment to buy unlimited amounts of short-term bonds from euro countries that request help.

Now there is in my view just another reason for investors to hop-on the bullish bandwagon as improving sentiment on the Euro which has simply been an excuse to drive the stock to 30% of its book value reverses. Book value is 10+ cents per share. The stock currently trades at .0264, just a return to book will reward an investor with a 378% return !

Isn’t it time to smell the coffee and pick some up ?

Less than $ 1500 bucks picks up 50 000 shares at these ridiculous prices, at present perceptions the stock is a bet on the Euro. Fundamentals are excellent do your DD and see if you agree with me.
