S.A. Advisory E-Mail Update

Electrocon International (nasdaq-EPLTF ),is a diversified Hong
Kong based holding company that conducts operations through its
subsidiaries in two separate business segments- the distribution
of semiconductor products(primarily computer chips) to small and
medium sized manufacturers located in Hong Kong and China and the
distribution of golf carts, irrigation products and systems,
fertilizer and turf equipment to golf establishments in Hong
Kong, Macau and China...
We have been following this opportunity for the past 2-years
and at recent price levels, that is .625/share the risk that
exists is not owning it..
This opportunity offers the small investor a cheap way to play
the explosive growth potential that exists in Hong Kong and China.
The main reason why the stock is trading close to its 2-year low
is that news has not been released for 8 months.
Due to foreign requirements company's have 6-months to report
yearend numbers. We anticipate the release anyday now-in addition
first quarter will also be released.
Bottom-line-- everyone thinks that the company is dead-meat.
Far from it!! The President continues to expand the franchise
that he has been building for years.
For the 9-months EPLTF has had sales of $41.7 million and earnings
of .05/share---It is anticipated that for the year ending DEC 1996
sales will reach atleast $55. million-- at present earnings est.
are not known.. At present there about 6.3 million shares out-
standing with a float of around 3 million. The current book value
is around .35.. At present this company is only being valued at
$3.8 million--the franchise alone is probably worth 3 to 4 times
that.. The company has no long term debt and as of Nov had $4
million in cash.
It is our opinion that as soon as news starts to be released invest-
ors will react very positive towards this situation.. The volume
down at current levels has been extremely light and any kind of
interest that develops near-term should propel this opportunity to
higher levels..Note: We also anticipate that first quarter #'s will
released within days of year end #'s
We believe that this situation belongs in all diverse emerging growth
portfolios that would like some international exposure in the area of
the world that promises huge rewards for the patient investor.
