We hoped the unique news of the company's intention to file= a patent on its revenue generating technology would restore the stock to i= ts previous high. Instead, the enhanced volume brought out sellers, and the= stock dropped. This demonstrates the importance of selling quickly when th= ese stocks we feature in Trading Alerts go against us. You should have sold= the stock at $1.06 if you followed our advice, and gotten out with a small= but manageable loss. It's always preferable to be out wishing you were in,= rather than in wishing you were out. In this edition we have a follow up= on XML technology in the news, and coverage on Energy Power's earnings ann= ouncement which was issued yesterday. [IMAGE] XML Global (OTC BB: XMLG= ) in Investor's Business Daily and Worth Magazine's Informative Article L= ate last year we were contacted by an associate in the computer industry wh= o told us we needed to find a microcap stock with leading edge technology i= n XML programming language. At the time we had no idea what XML was, but we= learned, loved it, and found a pure play in the microcap arena to cover. = Information on the XML revolution is starting to appear in the main stream= financial media. Last Thursday's edition of the Investor's Business Daily = contained an article which referenced our choice, XML Global Technologies (= OTC BB: XMLG). Many thanks to the members who emailed us concerning our typ= o in the weekend edition. We mistakenly printed the article was in the May = 12th edition. It was actually in the May 24th edition. It's of no consequ= ence as we have the article available for you in its entirety. Investors Bu= siness Daily gave the company permission to post the article in PDF Format = on its corporate web site. Simply click here to go directly to it, or go X= ML Global's investor relations section at their web site- Click Here for t= hat section. In addition to the Investor's Business Daily article, June'= s edition of Worth Magazine has a feature article entitled The XML Revoluti= on. This article has an understandable explanation of XML- what it is, how = it works, and how it will be used. This is a must read for anyone intereste= d in the future of computer programming. Click Here to read the article, o= r go to the following URL: http://www.worth.com/content_articles/0601_xml_r= evolution.html XML Global Technologies has spent the last two years deve= loping tools for programmers working on code for the XML revolution. We exp= ect media attention to continue to grow in this arena, and hopefully we hav= e identified an outstanding pure play for our members. Please read the arti= cles and let us know if you agree. We are getting more excited as coverage = of this new technology continues to accelerate. [IMAGE] Energy Power Sy= stems LTD (OTC BB: EYPSF) Announces 3rd Quarter Results We believe there = will be a bull market for North American energy related companies for the n= ext two to five years. In the microcap arena, Energy Power Systems LTD is o= ur contribution. The company's market cap (only $18 million) leaves plent= y of room for upside, and we are anticipating substantial growth in future = quarters. New business will start to come out in the June and September qua= rters, and their M&M Subsidiary is embarking on $5.5 million in new project= s right now. On Tuesday nine month financial performance was announced by= the company. Revenues were only up 9%, but the earnings turnaround was imp= ressive. The company turned a small EBITDA profit of $100,000, but this com= pares to a $1.3 million loss in year 2000. This is very positive news as st= ocks generally trade on investor perception of the future, and this company= is definitely headed in the right direction. Here is the complete text o= f the press release for your review: Tuesday June 5, 5:14 pm Eastern Ti= me Press Release Energy Power Systems Limited - Announcement TORONTO--(= BUSINESS WIRE)--June 5, 2001--Energy Power Systems Limited (``EPS'' or the = ``Company'') (NASD Bulletin Board: EYPSF) (CDNX: YPS - news; www.epsx.com) = announces that it has issued unaudited consolidated financial statements fo= r the nine month period ended March 31, 2001. These statements reflect the = following activities of EPS and its subsidiaries: consolidated revenues = of $15.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2001 ($13.9 million -2= 000); consolidated gross profits of $1.5 million for the nine months ended = March 31, 2001 ($2.3 - 2000); consolidated EBITDA of $0.1 million for the n= ine months ended March 31, 2001 ($1.3 million negative EBITDA -2000); conso= lidated loss from continuing operations of $0.5 million for the nine months= ended March 31, 2001 ($2.0 million - 2000); and consolidated basic and ful= ly diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.13 ($.63 per sha= re - 2000). EPS's consolidated revenues of $15.2 million for the nine mon= th period ending March 31, 2001 increased by 9% from the $13.9 million repo= rted during the same period the previous year. Increased activity from the = Company's Engineering and Offshore Division and new sources of revenue from= the Company's Oil and Gas Division that began operations February 1, 2001 = contributed to this revenue growth. Consolidated EBITDA of $100,000 for = the nine-month period ending March 31, 2001 was positive versus consolidate= d EBITDA of $(1.3) million reported for the previous nine-month period. The= consolidated EBITDA increase was largely due to the benefits of a corporat= e restructuring initiated at the end of fiscal 2000 as well as the addition= al cash flow from the introduction of the oil and gas division. ``It was ou= r corporate objective at the end of last year to turn the Company cash flow= positive this fiscal year,'' stated Scott Hargreaves CFO, ``to achieve thi= s we eliminated two non-core subsidiaries and created the Oil & Gas Divisio= n. We are most pleased with the positive improvement in cash flow as EBITDA= increased $1.4 for the nine month period ending March 31, 2001.'' The E= ngineering and Offshore Division is currently working on recently announced= contracts of $5.5 million of work to carry itself over the fourth quarter = and beyond. Construction of the 'floating production, storage and offloadin= g' platform for the White Rose Oil Field expected to get the go ahead late = this summer could feed further growth for the Engineering and Offshore Divi= sion in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2001. In addition the Oil and Gas= Division is adding positive cash flow to help fund corporate operations an= d future exploration and acquisition strategies. At present the Company is = planning its summer exploration, drilling and development program to increa= se production and oil & gas reserves. EPS is an Independent Power Projec= t Developer, an Oil and Gas exploration company and a Contractor of infrast= ructure projects.
