Hallo !

Ich verfolge diese Aktie seit mehreren Monaten.
Aus Zeitmangel habe ich bisher keinen Thread hierzu eröffnet.

In einem meiner bestehenden Threads, INT, habe ich das getan, was ich eigentlich selbst nicht leiden kann, nämlich auf eine andere Aktie hingewiesen - ALYI.

Da umgehend ein feedback kam, und ich im bestehenden Thread nicht über eine andere Aktie diskutieren wollte, nun doch diese Neueröffnung.

Allzuviele Infos werde ich hier nicht einstellen können, da der Zeitmangel natürlich dennoch vorhanden ist ...

Ich stelle im Folgenden meinen Beitrag im INT-Thraed und die Antwort darauf hier ein.

Gruß, praesens

Hallo,

ich mache jetzt etwas, das ich eigentlich selbst überhaupt nicht ausstehen kann - ich verweise in einem Thread auf eine andere Aktie ...

Ich würde schon seit Wochen gerne zu ALYI einen eigenen Thrad hier auf w:o eröffnen, aber mir fehlt ganz einfach die Zeit dazu.
Aufgrund dessen dieses Ausnahme-posting ...

Im stockhouse bullboard, und speziell im jimrockford blog, erfahrt Ihr Alles wesentliche.

A few points re the jimrockford blog

* I write my blog in the style of an aggregator – and one who is trying to bring up things which might not be covered otherwise.
* This is a blog that covers a few microcap / juniors – ie. companies in which I do extensive DD, or have information trap-lines set to follow when and where nobody else will/can.
* I may own the first set of companies mentioned in the title. The rest, referred to as “Others” in the title heading, I absolutely would not have in my portfolio.



ALYI

The mobile commerce and mobile security spaces are growing in North and South America very, very quickly. All my DD tells me that Alternet has the head start and the chops to do extremely well.

I believe that the next month and a half will be stellar for ALYI, leading into one fantastic year. IMHO – MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR POSITION RIGHT NOW.

- The DD being put on the ALYI bullboard is excellent. Read it. Then read it again.

- My jimrockford blog has done extensive DD work. So, use it. Here is a link:

http://www.stockhouse.com/Blogs/ViewBlog.aspx?b=1435

- The market movement is excellent. I myself have tested the strength of the bids – and they are strong.

The technicals show ALYI to be a STRONG BUY. Here’s a link:

http://barchart.com/quotes/stocks/ALYI

IMHO, ALYI is making a move right now and is going well north of today’s SP. I think this will be very exciting and rewarding.


Wenn es jemanden interessiert - viel Spaß !

Ja, simonalex, habe ich !

Der Umsatzrückgang beträgt m.E. 55 %, von 137.450 auf 60.606 für den 3-Monats-Zeitraum. Aber das nur am Rande.

Es verhält sich hier wie bei INT - der Umsatz ist momentan egal, da quasi sowieso nicht vorhanden.
Ob 60.000 oder 137.000 - relativ lachhaft ist Beides, um anhand dessen eine Investitionsentscheidung treffen zu wollen.
Somit für mich nicht gegeneinander abwägbar.

Auch hier geht es um die zukünftigen Chancen, und nicht um den marginalen Umsatz eines start-ups !

Wie gesagt, lest Euch in die story ein, nicht in die Zahlen.
Die kommen bei guter story automatisch - hoffentlich ...

Jan 24, 2008 1: 10 Stock Split (??????)


Es gibt überhaupt keine Insiderkäufe auf die angeblich vervorstehenden Neuigkeiten.


Nach meiner kurze Recherche ist das ein ewiges Talent, dass seit Jahren dahintümpelt. Zudem schreibt der Author, dass er denkt, dass es sich bei diesem Deal um ALYI handeln könnte.

Warum hätten sie dazu kein news herausbringen sollen.
Selbst auf Gerüchte reagiert der Aktienpreis gewöhnlich. Hier aber tut sich nichts?

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Arranges First Tranche of Private Placement


MIAMI, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 07/20/2011 -- Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) (PINKSHEETS: ALYI) today announced that it has arranged a non-brokered private placement. The proceeds of the private placement will be used to finance Alternet's growth plan in the high growth segments of the mobile value added services markets, mobile commerce and digital and mobile security. Mobile value added services are growing explosively fueled by the near ubiquity of the mobile phone, which has achieved over 80% penetration of the global population.

In the transaction concluded June 15th, a new investor purchased 3,333,333 common shares for $500,000. As part of the transaction the investor received warrants for an additional 2,000,000 shares at an Exercise Price of $0.25 per share. The warrants have an 18 month term and carry a call option, should the Company's share trade at $0.40 or higher for any 60 day period. This placement adds to funds raised earlier in the second quarter, as disclosed in the company's filings.

Alternet CEO Henryk Dabrowski expressed great optimism at the news of the capital raise, saying, "This new investor clearly sees the potential in Alternet and its mobile industry investments. We appreciate their support and investment at a time where we are fulfilling key contracts and projects with Mobile Network Operators and Banks in the Americas. This private placement, in this and future tranches, allows Alternet to fund its high growth subsidiaries."

Alternet's mobile commerce subsidiary, Utiba Americas, is rapidly expanding its presence throughout Latin America and deploying customer contracts. Utiba Americas is a joint venture with Singapore based software developer, Utiba, a leading provider of mobile financial service platforms worldwide. Alternet's digital and mobile security subsidiary, International Mobile Security (IMS), is marketing mobile security products to the global law enforcement community and preparing to launch mobile security products for the enterprise and consumer markets. IMS's product portfolio was recently augmented with the acquisition of intellectual property concluded in the first quarter of 2011.

On Thursday, July 28th, Alternet's management will issue a letter to update current and prospective shareholders on the status of business in the first half of 2011.

"Es gibt überhaupt keine Insiderkäufe auf die angeblich vervorstehenden Neuigkeiten."

Dazu kann ich Dir mindestens 2 weitere Beispiele nennen, bei denen ich auch investiert bin , und die in den letzten Wochen jeweils um grob 50 % zugelegt haben.

Und ein split von vor 4 Jahren ...?

Überdies hatte der Kurs reagiert - von 12 Cent auf 20 Cent.
Kam wieder zurück - sitzt jetzt bei 15 Cent.
Der Umsatz ist allerdings allgemein recht lächerlich.
Aber auch das interessiert mich nicht wirklich.

Also, wer den Wert nicht mag, bitte !
Ich zwinge ja niemand.

Mobile Commerce and Transaction Solutions
Utiba Americas is the result of a joint venture between Alternet and Utiba Pte Ltd, a Singapore company, and leader in mobile financial transactions. Alternet is a majority shareholder in the venture.

Utiba Americas has the exclusive rights to market all Utiba products, offered as Software as a Service (SaS), in North, South, and Central America, and the Caribbean. The company targets mobile operators, financial institutions, money remitters, governments and utilities, and retailers, to name a few.

Verstehe nicht, dass all das nur einen Umsatz von 60 K im letzten Quartal gebracht hat. Verlust war 585 K im letzten Quartal per Ende September 2011.
Die MK beträgt 10 Millionen USD. Selbst wenn die 10 jährige Firma 2 Million Umsatz machen würde im Jahr, wär das Unternehmen stolz bewertet.

"MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire -11/29/11)- Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI.PK - News) (Pinksheets: ALYI.PK - News) today announced the conclusion of an exclusive master distribution agreement between Alternet's subsidiary, International Mobile Security (IMS) and UK-based technology and systems integration company, Delma MSS, for the re-sale of Delma's mobile security solutions in the Western hemisphere.

Under this agreement IMS will be the exclusive master distributor of Delma's products and services in the Americas. Delma's technology provides mobile security solutions to global law enforcement agencies and mobile network operators, focusing on the following areas:

* Asset location and recovery
* Security and forensics
* GSM network surveying

IMS will offer these solutions to its existing clientele and contacts within the international law enforcement community, in conjunction with its existing portfolio of proprietary mobile security services.

Delma will also offer IMS' services to its global customer base, and the two companies have already identified a series of joint research and development projects to pursue.

IMS CEO Juan Cubides explained, "The inclusion of Delma's services into our mobile security portfolio further reinforces our offering to international law enforcement agencies. It is a perfect complement to our existing technologies and sales in this vertical market segment."

"Our agreement with IMS will bring us wider geographical coverage and result in a more comprehensive solutions portfolio for our partners and customers. We are excited by the opportunities that we have already begun to explore," said Gordon McKay, CEO of Delma MMS.

Ein stockhouse-posting mit dem Titel "connect the dots ...", man muß es aufmerksam lesen, es ist recht lang, aber es connected ...

Connect the dots ............

On Dec. 6th I mentioned that I had some unanswered questions. One of the questions came up when reading Jim Rockford's blog relating to the private placement.

http://www.stockhouse.com/Blogs/ViewDetailedPost.aspx?p=1187…


The terms of the pp seemed unusual for the ALYI share price at the time.

Excerpts from ALYI News release about Private Placement

...............In the transaction concluded June 15th, a new investor purchased 3,333,333 common shares for $500,000. As part of the transaction the investor received warrants for an additional 2,000,000 shares at an Exercise Price of
.25 per share. The warrants have an 18 month term and carry a call option, should the Company's share trade at
.40 or higher for any 60 day period. This placement adds to funds raised earlier in the second quarter, as disclosed in the company's filings.

Alternet CEO Henryk Dabrowski expressed great optimism at the news of the capital raise, saying, "This new investor clearly sees the potential in Alternet and its mobile industry investments. We appreciate their support and investment at a time where we are fulfilling key contracts and projects with Mobile Network Operators and Banks in the Americas.

I was curious about who the new investor is and why they would put up $500,000. Although I believe in ALYI, I would have to be convinced a lot more before putting up $500,000 (if I had it). I assumed that the new investor was likely close to ALYI and that they had been provided a great deal more detail than what is available to retail investors! I decided to try to follow the money and connect some dots!! All the following information is available to the public and IMHO the connected dots draw a very interesting picture!

If we once again revisit Alternet's July 28th, 2011, Letter to the Shareholders, Update on YTD Business it states:

................Since Utiba Americas' launch in early 2010 we have grown the company's regional footprint, and created a position of leadership in mobile commerce in the hemisphere, which can be seen in the following achievements:

* Launch of four commercial mobile financial service platforms in 2011, to be announced in the third quarter, subject to client approval.
* Execution of five contracts, with more than twenty opportunities in negotiation and more than twenty qualified prospects throughout the region
* Utiba Americas and its partner, Utiba Pte, Ltd., are in advance negotiations, with announcements expected soon, to enter into global strategic partnerships with industry giants, enhancing the company's presence and market participation

We are on track to play a leading role in this expanding multi-billion dollar industry and reap double digit sales growth over the next 5 years.

http://www.easyir.com/easyir/customrel.do?easyirid=26A2B632B…


I found the above highlighted wording very interesting as it was not just Utiba Americas but Utiba Pte. as well that is involved in the negotiations and the words "global" and "industry giants" are very specific and suggestive!

Revisiting part of Henryk's (der CEO, praesens) statement about his past work experience we see one "industry giant" in his past, having spent a great deal of time in Caracas, Venezuela.

....................Prior to my work with NewMarket, I held the position of CEO at Vox2Vox Communications, Inc., a Cisneros Group venture in VoIP Telecommunications, with operations in Turkey, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Venezuela and the United States. I have extensive experience in Latin America in the technology and telecommunications industry and have executed engineering and telecommunications projects for many major companies in the region.

TECHCRUNCH Jay Donovan FEBRUARY 20th, 2011

It looks like a mobile phone inside of a calculator (and that may be just about what it actually is). Regardless, Movilway, a payments platform serving the underbanked mostly in South and Central America, are further developing their self contained cellular POS system. It works mano-a-mano with their pre-paid system for money transfer in order to facilitate payments sans bank account or credit card. Think of it as being like a combination of paypal and western union, in that you go to physical merchant locations to deposit cash into the system, but then can carry that credit indefinitely inside the system and debit it anytime you want at select Movilway merchants. Their goal is to further deploy and make non-cash payments possible in developing markets where having a bank account or credit card may not be an option due to lack of infrastructure.

WorldCity APRIL 6th, 2011 Moving from veteran Telefonica to startup Celistics, executive explores ways to build a brand from scratch

After years at an established multinational, Maxim Weitzman took on the challenge to create a marketing strategy for a fast-growing startup, and questions abounded:............................

Weitzman switched jobs just three months ago, leaving the post of vice president of marketing at Telefonica USA, the Americas unit of Spain’s telecommunications giant, to head up marketing and communications for Spain-based startup Celistics and its subsidiary Movilway, both run from South Florida.

Celistics distributes cell phones in Spain and Latin America, mostly for Telefonica, and now is expanding to serve other clients. Its Movilway division lets consumers, even those without banking accounts, pre-pay into cellphone-based accounts to pay other bills from electricity to government fees. Started in 2008, Celistics posted $1.4 billion in revenues last year and expects solid growth again this year. ............

..Business took off easily with a ready client in Telefonica, which sought a logistics partner in Latin America.

The growth of Movilway since their first launch in Mexico in February 2011 IMHO is phenomenal, however, it will take a bit of time for the actual revenues to churn through to ALYI but like I posted previously it is only a matter of time IMHO.

Company Overview


History

Alternet Systems, Inc. was incorporated in 2002, initially for the deployment of an educational content delivery system, known as SchoolWeb. In 2008, the company acquired TekVoice Communications, Inc. and began a restructuring of its vision and objectives toward the offering of hosted electronic ticketing and transaction solutions, and third party billing of Internet Protocol (IP) based services.

Since 2008, the company has developed strategic relationships (hyperlink to partners) and operational strengths which today provide key advantages in the pursuit of its vision - to enable secure mobile commerce and transaction services, on a hosted platform.


The Opportunity – Enabling Secure Mobile Commerce and Transactions

Two driving forces underlie the opportunity in the Mobile Commerce and Transaction Market

• Cellular Phone Penetration
• “Unbanked” Population Worldwide


Cellular Phone Penetration

The cellular phone has rapidly surpassed all other technologies in its speed of adoption- in 2010, more than 70% of the world’s adult population owns a cell phone. Alternet, through its subsidiary Utiba Americas, targets the region of the Americas and Caribbean for the deployment of mobile commerce services. The Americas and the Caribbean show remarkable potential, with a dozen countries in Latin America reporting greater than 100% cellular penetration, according to the International Telecommunications Union data for the year 2008.


The “Unbanked”

While cellular phone adoption continues unabated, the spread of financial services has stagnated, with negative consequences on economic growth in less developed countries. Access to traditional banking services has long been viewed as a precursor to economic development*. A bank account allows an individual to save and invest, and with time achieve financial stability and growth.

According to a recent study conducted by the Financial Access Initiative (“Half the World is Unbanked,” 2009), less than one half of the adult population of the world has a bank account. This is known as the “unbanked” population. As cell phones become ever more common, the number of “unbanked” with mobile phones is growing rapidly. In fact, the number is expected to grow from 1 billion to 1.7 billion, worldwide, from 2010 to 2012.

Mobile commerce and transactions promise to positively change the lives of the “Unbanked, Mobile,” and Alternet considers this social benefit an important dividend to its work.

a)
In October 2011, the Company signed a medium term agreement with a major regional mobile operator to provide mobile financial services, initially for the Guatemalan market. Resulting from this agreement, one of Guatemala's largest banks will be using Utiba Americas' platform to concurrently launch innovative mobile commerce services."


The above is part of a post I put out on Nov 17th and comes from the Notes found in the latest Alternet financials.

My DD has been telling me that Alternet is not announcing most of their deals, as these customers and/or partners want to keep things on the extreme down-low until there are no competitive issues with their own competition. Therefore, it is understandable that a great and hugely scaleable deal (ie. the Notes read “initially for the Guatemalan market) is hidden in a place that most people don’t actually read.

Since finding the deal in the Notes, I have been doing constant sleuthing in an effort to pin down the players involved. So, after a date night with TheBoss (my wife), I poured myself a strong one, started Googling.......and….. BINGO!......I think.

Read this:

The telecommunications company Claro and Rural Development Bank (Banrural) Bancamigo launched a new mobile banking service that allows customers to make transactions via their mobile phones.

That’s from a translation, so note that Bancamigo is the name of the new service.

Here’s the link:

http://translate.google.ca/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=http://ww…

There are plenty more links re Bancamigo if you are looking.

OK, now follow the bouncing balls:

1.Reread the Notes above from Alternet’s last Financials.

2.Banrural(Banco deDesarrollo Rural),previously known as the Agricultural Dev. Bank, is the 2nd or third largest bank in Guatemala.

3.Claro is the biggest telecom in Guatemala and is a subsidiary of America Movil. It is the 4th largest telco in the world, the largest mobile telecom in Latin America - and it's owned by Carlos Slim, the world’s richest man."

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Launches End to End Mobile Financial Services Initiative

2012-02-22 06:00 PT - News Release

MIAMI, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/22/12

Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) (PINKSHEETS: ALYI) today announced the creation of a new initiative to provide an end to end solution within the mobile payment ecosystem, which will provide a fast and efficient go to market suite of services including card management, payment processing and advanced mobile financial services that connect a mobile wallet to traditional payment tools. End users will enjoy an integrated experience, with social media and proximity payment capabilities.

The payment initiative builds upon the success of Alternet's mobile commerce subsidiary Utiba Americas, a joint venture with Singapore-based, leading mobile financial services solution provider, Utiba. Utiba Americas is Utiba's affiliate for the Americas region, and offers the leading Utiba end to end mobile financial service solution as a hosted service and as a traditional software license. Since its launch in the Americas region in 2010, the company has implemented mobile financial service solutions in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Guatemala, with further implementations under way in Venezuela, Honduras and Mexico. Utiba Americas and Utiba expect to be present in 14 countries in the Americas including the United States and Canada by the end of 2013, serving a potential market of over 600 million mobile and internet users and a population of over 900 million people.

Utiba recently announced a strategy to allow payments between traditional debit, prepaid and credit cards and mobile wallets, in an initiative they have named Converging Payments. Alternet intends to work closely with Utiba on card processing and program management service offerings to complement this strategy, to provide an end to end solution. The suite of services, expected to be commercially available by the end of the second quarter of 2012, will target financial institutions, program managers, consumer goods manufacturers, governments, traditional and online merchants, and social media networks.

"Utiba's success in mobile financial services and visionary approach to Converging Payments provides Alternet with an opportunity to expand in the explosive and rapidly evolving mobile payments market, which was recently projected to reach $998 billion in 2016," commented Henryk Dabrowski, CEO of Alternet Systems.

Mobile money deployments in Latin America



By Jesus Luzardo, Executive Vice President of Sales, Utiba.

Mobile money deployments in Latin America have been delayed compared to Africa and Asia Pacific, and clearly it is not due to a lack of mobile phone penetration which in many countries is well over 100%. The delay is due in part to a lack of clear, regional regulatory and legal guidelines which are evolving in most of the countries in the region, but also to the differences in infrastructure and demographics. Specifically, banking service penetration in the region hovers around 40%, and more than 60% of the population lives in urban centers, close to banking facilities. Significant retail and distribution channels also exist throughout the region. So what do these demographic and infrastructural differences mean to the evolution of mobile money services?

First, the strength and development of banking institutions regionally means that regulators are more inclined to give a controlling role in mobile money services to financial institutions, even though the banking penetration is still low (below 40%) and the # of bank branches (including branches, ATMs & Non-Bank Correspondents) is below 11 in average per 100,000 inhabitants, which is well below developed markets where the average is above 30. Throughout the Latin America, we see significant trends toward the adoption of a bank-led regulatory model, unlike many other regions of the world which have allowed the Mobile Operators to offer mobile money services independently. This regulatory model forces alliances between Mobile Operators and Financial Institutions, which often do not necessarily share the same corporate objectives or culture. This may be seen as a reason for the delay in the launch of services in the region. A unique case (so far) of bank – led regulation is that of the Central Bank of Ecuador which plans to provide a single mobile wallet platform for the entire country taking an active role to accelerate financial inclusion, the process by which financial services are extended to the unbanked population.

Second, the existence of developed retail and distribution channels, formal and informal, point to the potential of third party service providers independently offering mobile money services. This model was successfully adopted in Vietnam by M-Service. M-service started as an operator agnostic electronic recharge provider and has since grown to become the country’s largest prepaid distributor, offering recharge of accounts for all seven mobile operators with over 80,000 points of service nationwide. M-service is now marketing its mobile commerce services under the name of momo which includes the purchase of game credits and utility bill payment. The company looks to do person to person money transfers once they have authorization from the State Bank of Vietnam. In Latin America, regional airtime distributor Movilway is similarly deploying electronic recharge and mobile commerce services throughout the region.

Regardless of the delay, we see mobile money services taking off within the region, with the most potential among the unbanked. To achieve success in this market segment, payment service providers (banks, mobile operators, or third party payment service providers) will have to create a compelling value proposition for end users, ultimately one that saves them money. Mobile money doesn’t compete with credit card services or other financial instruments, rather, it competes with cash. To convince a person of any socio-economic status to put hard cash into a mobile wallet, you need to provide a compelling reason why.

For instance, in the Philippines, the Rural Banking Association of the Philippines (RBAP) and Microenterprise Access to Banking Services (MABS) have been particularly successful in developing microfinance services on the G-Cash platform that provide real cost and time savings to the microenterprise clients that use them. G-Cash customers can use their mobile wallet to make microloan payments, pay bills, make purchases and send money to relatives and friends. They have successfully identified an end user “pain point” and solved it with mobile wallet services.

Mobile operators in Latin America appear to have honed in on the person to person money transfer service as a most compelling end user use case. Paraguay has served as a test bed for Luxembourg-based mobile operator Millicom with its Tigo Cash (Giros Tigo) mobile wallet system which it intends to expand to the rest of its Central and Latin American properties in 2011. Tigo Cash has primarily focused on domestic remittances as a particular pain point for customers in the region.

At the same time, there are several initiatives being brewed by governments in Latin America for social benefits disbursements using mobile money as a vehicle to do it effectively; these initiatives coupled with several initiatives from private micro-finance institutions that with the help of international organizations are planning to launch mobile micro-finance programs in countries like Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Central America, will help to ‘kick start’ the loading of the wallet barrier, as well as providing a cost effective method to distribute these benefits and financial programs.

The next 18 months (2011/2012) promise to be the year of mobile money launches in Latin America, a year of catch up. The regulatory environment will continue to evolve and provide clearer commercial frameworks for services, commercial deployments will finally take place in multiple countries of the region and the unbanked may finally have access to this powerful means of financial inclusion.

MasterCard Launches Partnership Program to Enhance Mobile Money Services for Underbanked Consumers in Developing Markets

2012-02-22 18:00 ET - News Release

Comviva, Sybase 365 and Utiba, leading platform providers of mobile financial services, are the first to join the program



Company Website: http://newsroom.mastercard.com/
PURCHASE, N.Y. -- (Business Wire)

MasterCard (NYSE:MA) today announced a global initiative called the MasterCard Mobile Money Partnership Program to help more than 2.5 billion financially-underserved consumers worldwide gain access to formal financial services through their mobile phones.

MasterCard is working with preferred platform partners Comviva, Sybase 365 and Utiba to enable consumers to purchase goods and services via their mobile phones at millions of brick and mortar and online merchants worldwide, as well as transfer funds and pay bills.

Mobile Money addresses the needs of consumers in developing markets through a readily accessible device, the mobile phone. While only about half of the world’s households have bank accounts – and an even lower proportion in developing countries – seven out of 10 people worldwide have a mobile phone. According to Juniper Research, the combined market for all types of mobile payments is expected to reach more than $600B globally by 2013, double the current figure.

“With about five billion mobile phone users worldwide, this program provides powerful, smart and convenient new payment options to people through a device that’s already in the palm of their hands today,” said Mung Ki Woo, Group Executive, Mobile, MasterCard Worldwide. “Our approach is to work with all leading players in the Mobile Money ecosystem to bring the benefits of electronic payments to those who otherwise wouldn’t have access to formal financial services. Comviva, Sybase 365 and Utiba are key strategic platform partners to help implement this vision.”

Stored value accounts, managed primarily by mobile network operators and supported by banks, offer basic services such as mobile top-up, bill payments and P2P payments within the network. By working with Comviva, Sybase 365 and Utiba, the first companies to join the program, MasterCard is helping mobile network operators and financial institutions accelerate and expand the development of their financial services offerings to their customers. Comviva, Sybase 365 and Utiba’s mobile money solutions are installed or being deployed by more than 200 telecommunication operators and banks across the globe covering more than one billion consumers.

The Mobile Money Partnership Program offers consumers the following MasterCard services:

* Prepaid companion cards that account holders can use at merchants that accept MasterCard cards.
* Virtual card accounts that can be used for eCommerce payments with a user’s mobile money account.
* Person-to-person payments between subscribers of two different mobile money services.
* Face-to-face or remote payments using mobile phones for goods and services at merchants that do not have traditional POS acceptance.

Commenting on this partnership program, Manoranjan Mohapatra, CEO, Comviva said, “As a dominant player in the mobile financial industry, Comviva has an enviable position of scale and global reach in the emerging markets. This makes us an unequivocal partner of choice for MasterCard to launch its mobile money partnership program. This partnership program will also provide the right impetus to foster financial inclusion globally.”

“By providing solutions to emerging markets through a flexible partnership program, MasterCard is unlocking opportunities for innovation throughout the entire ecosystem,” said Matthew Talbot, Senior Vice President of mCommerce, Sybase 365. “As a lead preferred partner with MasterCard, we will demonstrate our expertise in bringing operators and financial institutions together to create mobile financial services solutions that reach millions around the world.”

“The partnership with MasterCard is a key part of our Converging Payments strategy, which calls for the intersection of mobile wallet networks with card based payment networks. We are extremely confident that this joint initiative will accelerate financial inclusion of the underserved. Expanding our customers’ national mobile wallet systems to access MasterCard’s ubiquitous payment network will allow the previously underbanked to participate in the global economy,” mentioned Richard Matotek, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Utiba.

"gentlemen........not to worry.......i have talked to the company.

there is a larger pictue and game plan.

1.) let mastercard lead with their announcement and build a GLOBAL AUDIENCE. .......note, MA is up $10 today to $416.

2.) ALYI then structures their "TIE-IN" announcement which is to be out next week........this, of course, has to be approved by all the principles (i.e. MC, utiba, utiba americas, and alternet...........who will ALL be represented and together in barcelona next week starting monday)......note, it was necessary to wait until after we knew exactly what MC said in their announcement..........this "tie-in" announcement adds to the eyeballs already on alternet.......all next week.

3.) then all through march we start announcing DEALS........something for which we have been waiting a long, long time........hopefully, these will start the week of 5 march..........after MC's global audience has been awakened, our eyeballs have been collected, and we have ALL had our chance to sing our song at the show in barcelona.

remember, this is a HUGE global initiative using the utiba platform which we have tied up EXCLUSIVELY in all of north, south and central america and the carribean........further, utiba is a PRIVATE company and mastercard is over $400 a share.........the ONLY WAY TO PARTICIPATE in this huge market / space is with ALYI stock........personally, i think we will double to 50 cents WAY before mastercard goes to $800.........IMHO any downside from here will be short lived and driven by those hoping to scare current shareholders out of stock that they can use to cover their short positions........don't fall into this trap.....as i said earlier, what is important is where we are in (30) days.

mobile commerce / banking IS THE FUTURE, and trust me, mastercard researched every platform out there......they cannot afford a misfire on this initiative, and the fact that they selected OUR PLATFORM is the largest and best endorsement that anyone could hope for.

Movilway just keeps on going........like the Enegizer bunny!!!!

As I stated in Movilway - update 1:

This update about Movilway, also shows that they continue to grow and expand their product offerings, as you read the following update keep this in mind:

“Movilway, technological company specialized in the market of Latin America, has chosen Utiba Americas as strategic supplier to promote recharging and mobile banking services in Latin America.


Movilway aiming for US$160mn in transactions in 2012 - Regional

Published:Tuesday, February 28, 2012 11:42 (GMT -0400)

Spanish and Latin America prepaid mobile top-up platform provider Movilway expects to see transactions over its platform worth a total of US$160mn during 2012 compared to US$60,000 in 2011, Movilway general manager Dan Cohen told BNamericas.

Movilway expects to end the year working with 200,000 agents compared to the 80,000 today, he said. The company currently has agents in all of the main markets in Latin America except Brazil, where it expects to launch in Q3.

The company is launching a new product called MoviPin, which is a PIN code that can be used as an alternative for online payments. Balances using this PIN code can be topped up at Movilway points of sale.

Movilway is also setting up a service of direct remittances in 1.5 months, to allow Latin Americans living abroad to send money to family members in the form of credit with a Movilway agent, meaning that the money can only be used for food or clothes and not withdrawn as of cash.

Further, the company has launched its own tablet that can be used by "mom and pop" stores to manage their transactions and keep a registry of their customers' details. The idea is that at a later date, they can draw up targeted marketing campaigns aimed at regular customers, based on the knowledge of purchasing habits.

Cohen said Ecuador and Mexico are currently Movilway's most advanced markets, given the push by Ecuadorian central bank BCE to create an ecosystem of mobile payment agents and Mexican regulation that favors this payment method.

Other important countries for Movilway are Peru and Colombia.

Hi praesens

Schau dir mal das die short Graphik auf Seite 6 an.

Obwohl wir am 7. März bei 37 cents (auch wenn mit wenig Umsatz) geschlossen haben, versuchen die shorter seit Tagen den Kurs erfolglos runterzudrücken.
Er kommt immer wieder hoch. Ich habe gestern mein Verkaufslimit bei 39 cents rausgenommen, da wir schon die 38 cents gesehen haben und auf 43 cents erhöht.

Sollten der limit Verkauf in den nächsten Tagen gehen, werde ich versuchen sofort wieder weiter unten mit Einsatz und Gewinn und noch ein paar Dollars dazu wieder einzusteigen.

Dabei mache ich mir die shorter zunutze. Sollten die wie in den letzten Tagen weiterhin drücken, bin ich zuversichtlich, dass ich mein Stücke dann intraday 20% unter meinem Verkauf zurückkaufen kann.

Auf gut Glück könnte es Hinhauen.

As Google’s outgoing CEO Eric Schmidt put it at last month’s Mobile World Congress, NFC combined with smartphones represents a "mega-scale opportunity" and promises to "revolutionize" electronic commerce and payments.

Google has been gearing up to take advantage of that opportunity. I’m told it has been contacting a number of large U.S. merchants, including Wal-Mart, to get buy-in for its plan to push location-based mobile marketing and advertising to consumers, who could then tap their Android NFC phones using a Google-developed mobile wallet.

Google also has been putting together a team of payment and other mobile-commerce professionals, as it continues to build the wallet and the foundation for the cloud-based apps that would pinpoint a consumer’s location, know his interests and tap to collect and redeem offers and pay with NFC–with the consumer’s opt-in, of course.

And the Web giant has been working with big U.S. acquirer and processor First Data, which could provide connections with potentially millions of merchants, including small and medium size retailers throughout the United States. First Data also has introduced a trusted service management offer, and Google, I’m told, is interested in using it for applications downloaded to the wallet, perhaps for its own services or those of its partners.

Google also has been rumored to be in discussions with contactless reader maker Vivotech and point-of-sale terminal vendors, such as VeriFone. Along with First Data, these hardware vendors would provide the vital links between merchants and Google’s mobile-commerce platform when Android-users tap at the point of sale.

But everything I’ve heard from people who do more than just guess about Google’s–or for that matter, Apple’s–plans for NFC says neither wants to face the uphill battle of launching its own payment scheme at the physical point of sale.

Instead, they would build NFC-enabled digital wallets for their smartphone operating platforms, in which payment service providers, including banks, could store their applications. Apple’s wallet plans are less certain, despite a recent patent application with an e-wallet icon on the home screen.

But Google is definitely working on the phone software, code named "Cream," which was due out by April but might be delayed until early summer.

NFC Payment is a critical component in Google’s grand m-commerce plans because it consummates the consumer’s relationship with merchants that Google hopes to broker through its targeted mobile promotions and access to consumers when they are in or near the retail outlet. This targeted access is what Google would be selling to merchants. Besides that, the payment transactions would gather data on consumers’ buying habits for the next round of promotions, again, with the consumer’s permission.

"For Google, the opportunity is not the 1.5% they would receive for payment. The opportunity is the 10%-plus they get for referring the sale to the merchant. That’s why the payment business isn’t interesting (for Google)," said one observer of the Web giant’s moves in NFC.

The company made more than 95% of its $29.3 billion in sales last year from Web advertising. It wants that revenue flow to continue unabated as consumers do more and more browsing and search queries on their smartphones.

And smartphones combined with NFC could give Google something it lacks on the fixed Internet–access to physical merchants–where the vast majority of commerce is done. This is probably the crux of the mega-scale opportunity Schmidt was talking about.

Potential access to millions of physical merchants and targeted offers were likely the main things Google was after when it made its mega-bid for deal-of-the-day e-commerce site Groupon. Groupon, however, rejected the $6 billion offer late last year.

"Wouldn’t Google love to find a Groupon killer with something you could redeem at point of sale?" Todd Ablowitz, president of the U.S.-based Double Diamond consulting firm, told me.

He could not say whom he thinks Google might work with for the payment or other pieces of its m-commerce platform anchored by NFC phones.

Are Citi and MasterCard Onboard?
But I’m getting strong signals that a Citigroup-issued MasterCard PayPass application would be among the first payment card accounts in a Google wallet.

Citi is the only one of the top five U.S. banks not working on contactless microSD cards—at least not that we know of. Of course, Citi mostly works with MasterCard, which only recently gained access to the products of the main vendor supplying contactless microSDs for payment at present, DeviceFidelity. The vendor had had an exclusive deal with Visa Inc.

But unlike such Citi rivals as Bank of America, which appears to favor microSDs or other NFC alternatives, Citi has been among the strongest backers among U.S. banks of full NFC.

Yet, up until now, besides a rather anemic launch of a passive contactless sticker carrying a PayPass application last spring, Citi has done nothing in contactless-mobile payment stateside since an NFC trial it launched with MasterCard in New York City in 2007.

That absence is despite bubbly statements by a Citi executive about how much customers love NFC. Some execs made the same noise after a large NFC trial in Bangalore, India, in 2009.

Of course, compelling NFC phones will only become available this year. And Google is not the only platform or device supplier that is working on a mobile wallet.

If Citi, in fact, is going to be part of the Google wallet, it would bring MasterCard along. If nothing else, MasterCard would help to fund Citi’s implementation.

MasterCard also would be more flexible than Visa Inc. in working with new players in the payment industry. And the card network has been preparing for the coming of full NFC.

In January, it hired Mung-Ki Woo, in part for his direct experience in handling NFC projects with mobile operator France Telecom-Orange Group.

Referring to plans by some mobile operators to introduce their own payment brands using NFC phones, Woo told me earlier this month that MasterCard is "prepared to enter a dialogue" with the telcos.

"They will yield more business benefits by working with MasterCard than trying to sort of reinvent the wheel," he said. "Proximity payment is a complex domain."

MasterCard, like Citi, First Data and the POS terminal and reader vendors are not confirming plans that they are working directly with Google.

Wallet War Ahead?
Google seems to agree that it doesn’t pay to launch its own payment scheme. But it will be interesting to see how Google’s wallet stacks up against the wallets planned by three of the four major U.S. mobile carriers, AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile USA.

The U.S. telcos plan their own payment brand, Isis, which will anchor the wallets. So a Google wallet, at least in theory, could reside on the same Android phone as an Isis wallet.

But which secure element would any Citi-MasterCard PayPass payment applet be loaded on as part of a Google wallet? Would it go onto an embedded chip or possibly the SIM card, the latter directly controlled by mobile operators? Who will control the embedded secure chip in these Android and other NFC phones?

Schmidt, who will step aside next month as Google CEO and become executive chairman, did not discuss this issue in his relatively brief comments about NFC during his keynote at the Mobile World Congress last month in Barcelona. But he did seem to lump the contactless NFC chip in with the secure chip, speaking of it as one unit. Was he talking about an embedded chip?

The first Android NFC phone on the market, Google’s Nexus S, made by Samsung and released in December, has an embedded chip but also supports NFC applications on SIM cards–though the application-programming interface for payment using NFC’s card-emulation mode is not yet part of Android. The same architecture is expected for the forthcoming Samsung flagship Android phone, the Galaxy S II.

Some observers believe the U.S. carriers would want to hold the keys to all secure elements in the NFC phones they sell, including those for embedded chips. But these keys would be in the control of the handset makers, unless telcos are able to insist the phone makers hand over the master keys after the phones leave the factory.

"The fundamental question is, can smartphone vendors embed NFC in the phone and launch NFC services and still have the carrier sell phones to customers?" one observer remarked to me.

The battle over the secure element in NFC phones that has simmered for years between mobile operators and banks now seems to have some new contenders–Google and the Android handset makers, as well as Nokia-Microsoft, Research in Motion with its planned BlackBerry NFC phones and, of course, Apple, though it's not clear whether the latter will adopt NFC for the next iPhone. The secure chip in NFC phones will become an important piece of real estate, supporting potentially lucrative applications, such as payment, and the corresponding apps in the platform providers' app stores.

But with Google planning to launch its NFC wallet as early as this spring–one of the first real shots in that battle could be fired soon.

The well-publicized Google Wallet hacks from last week are among the least of Google's problems with its wallet.

The mobile wallet remains much more secure than the leather variety and the mag-stripe cards U.S. consumers now carry.

Of course, perception becomes reality when it comes to security fears among consumers, many of whom are already skittish about paying with their smartphones. If the steady stream of largely cloned stories warning of the dangers of the Google Wallet continue from the tech and mainstream press, it's one more challenge Google faces in getting its wallet rolled out widely.

But the challenges for Google run much deeper than PIN hacks. Google's biggest problem is that it needs to find a way to get more devices to support its wallet and more merchants to accept it.

And the recent discovery by some Android tech sites that subscribers could download the Google Wallet app to their Samsung Galaxy Nexus on both the AT&T and Verizon Wireless networks–the latter with a few workarounds–will do little to reinvigorate the wallet

What’s needed is a new strategy, and I hear that’s what Google is formulating now.

I understand there has been much internal debate over necessary changes, and it has helped lead to more departures from the Google Wallet team. The latest to go are the co-founding engineers, Rob von Behren and Jonathan Wall, NFC Times has learned. They remain senior software engineers at Google. Both had started working on the wallet in 2009.

In response to a question from NFC Times, a Google spokesman would only say that “it’s common practice at Google for people to move between teams,” adding: “We typically don't share much detail about our internal operations.” The LinkedIn pages for both von Behren and Wall indicate the pair left the wallet project last month.

The spokesman did not respond to a question on whether Google was reorganizing its wallet unit.

Although the exact reason for the exit of the engineers is unclear, it might have something to do with the structure of the wallet they built and whether they have the support of upper management on ways to change it.

This probably has nothing to do with the hacks of last week, which appear to have caught Google by surprise. The company is working on fixes and temporarily suspended provisioning of its prepaid card to the wallet until the fix is in place. Update: Google said late Tuesday that it had restored the ability to issue prepaid cards after implementing a fix. End update.

Among the deeper issues are how the wallet works with the secure elements in NFC phones, and how open the wallet application-programming interface is for Android developers.


Secure Element Issues

The secure element and Google’s need to control it is one of the main challenges the Web giant faces as it tries to get more handsets into consumers’ pockets supporting the wallet. Google needs to control the secure element for both payment and such other wallet applications as coupons, loyalty programs and daily deals, even though these latter applications require less security.

One of the recent hacks does touch on the secure element. Web security firm zvelo, which demonstrated the first and more complex of the two PIN hacks, recommends that Google verify the wallet PIN on the secure chip, not outside it, as it does now. If Google were to follow that advice, it would need even more control of the secure element or would have to outsource PIN verification to banks using the chip, said the firm–creating more logistical problems.

Of course, we are not talking about PINs or encryption keys for the payment applications themselves here that, once cracked, would enable hackers to clone new cards or print money. It's just the PIN unlocking the wallet and allowing the phone to transmit payment account details to the terminal. There are the same purchase limits and zero-liability for the payment applications in the wallet as apply to contactless cards. And consumers could add a screen lock PIN to make it even more difficult for a thief to profit if he were to steal a user's phone.

Google probably added the Wallet PIN in the first place as a way to ease security fears among anxious consumers. If so, that idea has backfired.

The more important reason Google needs to control the secure element or at least have access to it is not only to safeguard the payment application, but for the search giant to enable its concept of letting consumers pay as well as redeem Offers, coupons and rewards in a SingleTap. This underpins the Google Wallet experience the company is after and is important to the company's revenue model. Google will make money from sending targeted offers and promotions and needs to make the experience convenient.

This is a problem, however, since mobile operators are in the driver’s seat when it comes to the secure chips in the NFC phones they sell.

And mobile operators, including the two largest telcos in the U.S., Verizon and AT&T, but also those in Europe and Asia, are not so keen on seeing the Google Wallet succeed–though the Web giant has prospects for the wallet in Japan. Overall, major telcos in most developed countries have their own NFC m-wallet plans.

The carriers have full control over SIM cards used as secure elements. And in some phones–such as the NFC version of the popular Galaxy S II from Samsung–this is the only secure element available, not counting a possible add-on technology using microSD cards.

Therefore, it would be difficult for Google to gain support for its wallet on these phones, though the Web giant continues to negotiate access with operators.

But even phones with embedded secure elements will likely come under the control or strong influence of telcos, because carriers buy and distribute most of the phones in developed markets. That is especially true in the U.S.

This is why Google had to comply when Verizon asked it not to include the wallet functionality in the Galaxy Nexus phones destined for Verizon shops and not to include the wallet in the Android Market app store for Verizon subscribers.

Some Verizon users, nonetheless, found a workaround to get the wallet onto their Galaxy Nexus phones, which have an embedded secure element. AT&T didn’t try to block the wallet, instead allowing subscribers to download it to the phone directly from the Android app store if they searched for it there. But AT&T is doing nothing to promote the availability of the wallet to its customers.

These are among the first shots fired in the brewing wallet wars in the U.S. and beyond. AT&T, like Verizon and T-Mobile USA, is a member of the Isis consortium. All plan to launch their own Isis NFC wallets later this year, so are discouraging take-up of the Google Wallet.

Even though the Galaxy Nexus, like the Nexus S before it, is Google’s own smartphone, made for it by Samsung, I had thought that Verizon and AT&T would demand that Google hand over the keys to the embedded chip in exchange for the telcos subsidizing and distributing the device to customers. But Google retains the keys, otherwise users would not be able to get the wallet to work on the phones.


AT&T Not a Google Wallet Partner

Verizon took flak from some consumer groups and influential bloggers after Google outed its efforts to block the wallet. AT&T, on the other hand, decided it wasn’t worth risking a backlash, observes U.S.-based m-commerce analyst Cherian Abraham. So the telco allows the wallet to appear in the Android app store for its subscribers.

But this in no way makes AT&T a Google Wallet partner, notes Abraham. The only U.S. carrier that supports the wallet so far is Sprint, which will have a couple more phones, including a 4G LTE version of the Galaxy Nexus, available to host the wallet by the second quarter.

But relying on Sprint, the No. 3 U.S. carrier, to spread the Google Wallet widely among U.S. consumers is not a winning strategy. And it won’t help much even if Google is able to install the wallet on all of its future Motorola-made Android phones.


Limited Reach Versus Isis

Therefore, Google with its present wallet strategy, will not be able to compete with the reach of Isis, whose three telcos control about three-quarters of the U.S. cellular market and buy 130 million phones a year.

Isis has already announced that six major handset makers will have models supporting its wallet. That and Isis’ greater ability to scale up its platform has convinced some large U.S. banks, such as JPMorgan Chase, to put their payment applications in the Isis wallet, as NFC Times has reported. Plans call for Isis to launch in two U.S. cities this summer before a national rollout planned for next year. Meanwhile, Citigroup remains Google’s only banking partner, though the bank’s key wallet backer and point man, Dickson Chu, departed last fall.

“Google, with a fragmented Android ecosystem and (facing) a growing carrier clout may either have to make peace with competing NFC models, such as Isis, or embrace the cloud,” Abraham told NFC Times.

Cloud-based payment at the physical point of sale would use the Internet, not the conventional POS terminal network at the checkout counter, and is a strategy that PayPal is pursuing as it seeks to make the jump from the online to offline payment worlds.

PayPal hasn't rejected NFC technology, however, as recent reports suggest, PayPal tells me. It plans to use the technology when it’s more pervasive at the point of sale. Until then, it will pursue cloud-based payment to tie PayPal accounts to consumers, who would enter their phone numbers and PINs into terminals.

Google likely will embrace the cloud, too, to enable purchases at the physical point of sale with its wallet, believes Abraham. It has already integrated its unsuccessful e-commerce payment system, Google Checkout, into the wallet.

Von Behren and Wall are not the only ones to exit the Google Wallet team recently. AllThingsD reported two weeks ago that Vikas Gupta, Google’s head of commerce, had left Google. He had reported to Osama Bedier, vice president of payments, according to the publication, which said Bedier would take on an even larger role in the wallet because of the move by vice president of commerce Stephanie Tilenius to a more global position at Google.


Push for Open Platforms

Bedier has argued for open platforms when it comes to mobile wallets–mainly alluding to Isis, which Google believes is restricting consumer choice.

But Bedier now has an opportunity to make Google even more open, itself, especially its wallet API, which remains unpublished in the Android open-source platform specifications. Google has said it doesn’t publish the API for security reasons. It was not clear where the engineering people stood on opening up the API.

Google’s problems with the wallet, however, go well beyond open APIs and the work of the engineers. At present, the Nexus S 4G remains the only phone officially supporting Google wallet, since it launched last September.

Besides the scarcity of NFC phones supporting the wallet, Google also must convince wary merchants to trust it with their customer data–one reason there are few point-of-sale terminals accepting payment, as well as offers, coupons and loyalty programs. These nonpayment applications are the incentives that will get consumers more excited about using the wallet.

But the terminals must be upgraded with NFC chips and new software–old contactless-payment terminals won't support SingleTap. Google, however, has said it isn't planning to pay for a large rollout of the terminals. That would leave merchants on the hook for the cost, unless banks or payment networks agreed to pay for them.

And Google also needs to recruit more service providers, such as banks and transit operators, while finding ways to ensure a consistent user experience for the wallet across a range of devices.

I've no doubt that Google and its partners are meeting to discuss these and other topics as they try to chart a new strategy for the wallet. They will have plenty to talk about."

Sehr interessanter Beitrag - natürlich wieder von stockhouse - sorry ...!:


" If you have done DD on ANY mobile wallet you will have come across the terms closed-loop, open-loop, and interoperability.


From Victor Asemota's blog:

"Neil Ahlsten of Google Africa is one man I have been trying to have a sit-down with for a long time now. He gave a talk at a Mobile Money event (MMT Dubai) last year and his observations on the changes in the African (or emerging market) payment landscape were profound...........

...........He highlighted the problem with confusion in the market place caused by the different players and the need for interoperability and simplicity to effectively fight cash. Neil asked who the next Visa or Mastercard of Mobile Payments would be? He probably asked too soon as Visa and Mastercard are now present in the game as themselves with significant acquisitions and strategic alliances."


Mastercard made their announcement, Utiba made their announcement, Alternet made their announcement, intuitatively to some it is clear what the implications are for ALYI. For others it was just a lot of smoke! Interoperability was a big issue, but I believe that changed with the Mastercard agreement and if I am not mistaken Utiba is confirming that:

Hi simonalex,

die habe ich auch nicht gefunden ...

Nun, die Ausgabe der Optionen, egal zu welchem Preis, halte ich nicht für weiter schlimm. TSX-V und OTC-Selbstbedienung - habe ich mich (leider ?) dran gewöhnt.
Zudem war die Festlegung des Preises ja zu einem Zeitpunkt, als der Kurs noch deutlich niedriger war, insofern ist die "Dreistheit" nicht ganz so hoch wie es jetzt bei einem Kurs von 30 Cent scheint ...

Und ja, dilution wird es noch geben.
Wenn es dumm läuft in diesem Jahr um rund 33 %, von ca. 75 mio auf 100 mio Aktien.
Können Sie das pp platzieren zu 30 Cent, ergäben ca. 25 mio Aktien ca. 7,5 mio $.
Die burnrate beträgt ja wohl 600.000 $ im Monat, also 7,2 mio im Jahr ...

Und somit zum Positiven (was nicht den report betrifft, nur den Ausblick):
a) Exklusiver Vertrag mit einem der weltweit Top mobile financing Dienstleister, Utiba (400 mio Kunden ?), zur Abdeckung des kompletten amerikanischen Marktes über das gemeinsame JV Utiba Americas (Utiba 49 %, Alternet 51 %).
b) Fortgeschrittene Infrastruktur-Implementierung.
c) Mastercard-deal mit Utiba.

Sieht heute nicht so gut aus.

Letzter Kurs bis jetzt auf Tagestief bei 0.255 und im bid die beste order bei $0.24.

Ich warte hier auf einen guten Wiedereinstieg. Wenn ich jetzt noch investiert wäre, würde ich jetzt nicht verkaufen, sondern gelegentlich verbilligen.

Da ich jedoch an der Seitenlinie stehe, ist dies natürlich einfach zu sagen.

Ich warte mal ab, was die nächsten Tage bringen. Eilig mit dem Wiedereinstieg habe ich es nicht. Wenn mein Einstiegspreis erreicht wird, bin ich dann wieder dabei und sonst eben nicht.

Viel Erfolg @ all.

"ValidSoft and Utiba Have Ambitious Plans for Secure Mobile Commerce
2012 April 8
tags: mobile payments, mobile transactions, Validsoft, Voice biometrics
by Dan Miller

On the eve of Opus Research’s Voice Biometrics Conference, multi-factor security specialist ValidSoft announced that mobile financial services specialist Utiba would be integrating authentication services based on the VALid-4F(R) platform into future solutions. This move has huge implications for the voice biometrics market, since ValidSoft has been showcasing mobile authentication services that merge “four factors,” including “conversational” voice verification, location awareness, spoof-resistant identity assertion to augment existing anti-fraud methods, including PINs or out-of-band delivery of “one-time-passwords.”

Singapore-based Utiba has spent more than a decade developing a software platform to support mobile financial services. It has established business relationships with scores of mobile carriers, as well as mobile payment platform providers including MasterCard’s association of payment card issuers and mobile commerce software specialist Alternet Systems Inc. All told, Utiba claims that its software is in use in 30 countries and that the “Utiba Mobility” platform has roughly 500 million subscribers giving rise to over 12 billion transactions each year. The platform enables those subscribers to send money, pay bill and receive payments, including wages and government transfer payments, from mobile phones.

Both Utiba and ValidSoft have been actively building a global footprint for secure mobile payments and e-commerce. Utiba is a private company and its revenue figures are not public. It has supported implementations such as G-Cash/Globe in the Philippines, Maxis Malaysia, True in Thailand and the Orascomm Group in Bangladesh. The relationship with Alternet Systems signals an intention to grow in North America.

As we’ve reported here, ValidSoft has been laying the foundation for growth in Western Europe, the Pacific Rim and North America. Clearly the planets are aligning for growth in the coming year."

April 20, 2012
Dear Fellow Shareholder,
Fiscal year 2011 was important for Alternet, representing the first full year of operations after the change of the company’s investment and operational strategy in 2010. Alternet’s two subsidiaries - Utiba Americas and International Mobile Security (IMS) - achieved traction in their respective markets of mobile financial services and mobile security, with the former becoming a recognized regional industry leader.
Utiba Americas- leading provider of mobile financial services solutions in the Americas
In 2011 our mobile financial services subsidiary Utiba Americas significantly expanded its brand recognition, secured important new customer contracts and successfully executed projects in several markets. These projects are some of the first mobile financial service deployments in Latin America as the region has lagged behind the other emerging markets of Africa and Asia Pacific due to a lack of regulatory governance of mobile financial services. Over the last couple of years, several Latin American countries enacted the necessary legislation, and as a result a number of trials and deployment were launched in 2011.
Since its launch in early 2010, the company has combined direct marketing and promotion with established relationships throughout the region and participation in important regional trade shows focused on Mobile Financial Services, in many cases being a featured speaker. These events serve as a cost efficient means of reaching the target markets of mobile network operators, financial institutions and independent payment service providers. These efforts have led to a dramatic increase in the company’s brand recognition, invitations to participate in public and private bid processes, and eventual selection in a number of projects. Utiba Americas is now considered amongst the top three solution providers in the region.
In Latin America, Mobile Financial Services projects are increasingly being led by financial institutions; in response the company has included regional banking trade
Letter to Shareholders 4.20.2012
shows and collateral for banks in its marketing mix. As there are tens of thousands of
financial institutions in Latin America, versus several dozen mobile network operators,
the evolving market also requires a change of product mix.
Software as a Service
Utiba Americas was launched to achieve two objectives; market the Utiba mobile financial
services platform in the Americas, and introduce a heretofore unavailable hosted, or
Software as a Service (SaaS) offering. Offering a hosted platform is an important industry
innovation because it allows customers to provide mobile financial services without the
large upfront investment in hardware and software, and the ongoing expense of
maintaining and operating a complex platform. The company was confident that the new
and innovative product offering would be well received as the market for mobile financial
services evolved in favor of the more numerous financial institutions.
In 2011, Utiba Americas sold and implemented two hosted mobile financial services
software projects, which proved the SaaS concept and validated the company’s business
model. In a SaaS sale, Utiba Americas benefits by earning transactional revenue over the
contract’s multi-year life, instead of only recording a one-time sale of the license. Utiba
Americas offers both straight license sales and SaaS, with the latter garnering greater
traction and demand due to market evolution.
Converging Payments and MasterCard Mobile Money Partnership Program
In February of 2012, Utiba launched a strategic initiative called Converging Payments,
which allows for the delivery of more sophisticated mobile financial services to the
growing installed base of more than 500 million subscribers on the Utiba platform. The
first stage of the initiative was to announce Utiba’s participation in the MasterCard
Mobile Money Partnership Program, which will allow Utiba’s more than 40 mobile
network operators and banking customers worldwide to issue debit and prepaid
companion cards to their mobile money consumers.
With a MasterCard companion card, subscribers will be able to:
- Make purchases at traditional retail point of sale (POS) networks worldwide
- Access ATM's globally to take cash out of their mobile wallets
- Make online purchases where only credit, debit or prepaid cards are accepted
- Initiate credit, debit or prepaid card-based payments from their mobile
Utiba Americas sees the MasterCard agreement as having an enormous benefit in its
markets of North and South America and the Caribbean and current and prospective
customers have already expressed great interest in launching companion card services.
This initiative expands acceptance of the mobile wallet and its benefits by extending its
use into the traditional payments methods of credit, debit and prepaid cards, which will
increase revenues from fees and card (wallet) activations.

Utiba Americas Contracts
In Utiba Americas’ inaugural year (2010), the company closed an important license sale with Movilway, a regional topup distributor with a large distribution network in 15 countries of Latin America. In 2011 Utiba Americas deployed services for Movilway in several Latin American countries, where they are expected to rollout mobile commerce services in 2012.

As of mid-April 2012, the company has more than 15 qualified open prospects with regional mobile network operators, financial institutions, third party payment processors. These opportunities will fuel the company’s sales and deployments in 2012 and 2013.
Letter to Shareholders 4.20.2012
Operational Staffing & Deployment
Utiba Americas increased operational staff significantly to deploy and support the regional roll-outs of hosted (SaaS) mobile financial services, based upon existing customer commitments, the large number of projects in advanced stages of negotiation and the growing sales pipeline. Additional sales staff was also brought on board to address market needs and the aforementioned opportunities. As a result of these increases in operational and sales personnel, company headcount increased from 2 to 12 in 2011. Additional staff will be hired in 2012, in the US and internationally.
International Mobile Security – Mobile security solutions for government and law enforcement
In 2011 Alternet’s mobile security subsidiary IMS completed the acquisition of core intellectual property for mobile and digital security. The technology acquired was developed to address the needs of law enforcement agencies, and since its acquisition IMS has expanded its marketing of these services to more global law enforcement agencies. At the close of 2011, the company had several multi-million dollar, multi-year contracts in client testing and consideration.
To expand its sales efforts and broaden its service offering, IMS concluded an important reseller agreement and strategic alliance with UK based mobile security firm Delma. The two companies share a common target market –law enforcement – and have complementary technologies. The partnership strengthens each company’s respective product portfolios and market reach. As a result of the alliance, IMS’ products are currently being marketed and selectively tested in Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The company continues to evaluate additional strategic alliances, reseller agreements and prospective acquisitions, in order to fuel and accelerate sales growth and product portfolio enhancement.
IMS, independently and through its existing and new strategic alliances, will continue to expand its presence in new markets and consider additional acquisitions of intellectual property as they present themselves or as strategically required.
Alternet strongly believes in the market demand for IMS’ solutions and the strength of the company’s technology and product offering. The company is confident in IMS’ potential and ability to close the existing contracts under review and additional opportunities under discussion, and expects it to do so in calendar year 2012.
Alternet Financial Results
Alternet’s gross sales in 2011 were similar to those of the prior year. All sales came from the mobile financial services subsidiary Utiba Americas. Accounting practice dictates that revenue be recorded based upon project deliverables and client sign-off; accordingly there is a timing difference between realizing the full contract value and when revenues are recorded. Similarly, the SaaS projects, which have fee structures based on a per wallet or transaction basis, are sensitive to timing factors as revenue ramps up with the
Letter to Shareholders 4.20.2012
project’s roll-out and customer adoption. SaaS revenues, unlike license sales, extend over several years. The impact of this transition was partly evident in Alternet’s 2011 results.
In 2011 Alternet has a net operating loss of $2.4 million, due in part to the delayed growth of sales, and additional operational expenses (headcount and infrastructure) incurred to deploy customer commitments.
Financing
In 2011 we raised $1.5mm through a private placement; this capital has allowed our operations to expand and grow as described earlier in the letter. The financing includes warrants, the conditions of which are disclosed in our 10K, and which we feel show an alignment of long term interests between Alternet and these private investors. Additional financing is expected in the first half of 2012 under similar terms.
Goals for 2012:
• Continue to deploy mobile financial services projects throughout Latin America, to reach target of 10 countries by year end 2012
• Close the 15 open, qualified opportunities in the mobile financial services space,
• Launch Converging Payments within the hemisphere, allowing mobile financial services customers to issue MasterCard branded card products to mobile wallet holders
• Close mobile security opportunities currently in customer testing and review
• Expand mobile security product portfolio and market reach through reseller agreements and acquisition
In Closing
As one of the largest shareholders in the company and a key senior manager, I find our accomplishments of the past two years exciting. I look forward to communicating to you, my fellow shareholder, continued company growth and the achievement of other operational milestones in the coming year. With this, we hope to reach positive operational cash flows in all of our subsidiaries, which will reduce our dependence on external financing, and further increase the value of our investments. The company is at the cusp of realizing its vision of enabling secure mobile commerce and communications, fueled by the mobile phone explosion of the past decade.
Best wishes,
Henryk Dabrowski, Chairman & CEO, Alternet Systems

Moin Praesens, moin Simonalex,

kein Thema, Praesens. In letzter Zeit bin ich beruflich auch ein wenig öfter unterwegs, dass ich nicht so viel Zeit habe.

Ich finde die Zusammenfassung auch ganz gut. Er ist jetzt mehr allgemein, aber gibt ein gutes Bild über die Betätigungsfelder und zukünftigen Aufgaben.

Es liest sich zumindest alles konkreter und mehr zielgerichtet als bei INT

Auszug:

Competition

The Company competes in two distinct industries, mobile financial services and mobile security. Although the Company has unique features in its product offerings, and in mobile financial services is considered a pioneer and market leader, it competes with companies that are better financed. In 2010 and 2011 some market consolidation has taken place. Smaller competitors with market name recognition have been absorbed by larger organizations eager to capture market share and/or obtain technology and continued consolidation is expected over the next couple of years.


Research and Development

The Company spends a judicious amount in research and development expenditures. In mobile financial services, the Company primarily relies on its joint-venture partner's longstanding and continued research and development, and as appropriately purchases the necessary technology. In 2011, the Company purchased $1.5 million in intellectual property from its joint-venture partner. In mobile security the Company has its own proprietary technology and is in constant development to address client and market needs.


Employees

The company continued to increase staffing in the three months ended March 31, 2012 in its operating subsidiaries. At March 31, 2012, total staff stood at 25 versus 9 the prior year. The Company continues to outsource contract employment as appropriate.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011


Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had $59,285 in sales compared to $24,467 for the corresponding period in 2011. The increase in sales while significant as a percentage (142%) was well below the volume anticipated for the period as delays arose in proposal closing due to timing factors of qualified prospects of sales of mobile commerce and mobile security license software in the same period by Alternet Transaction Systems, (DBA Utiba Americas) and International Mobile Security. Based on client feedback, management continues to anticipate closing such proposals during the current year.


Gross Profit

Gross profit was $21,381 in the three months ending March 31, 2012 compared to a loss of $3,026 in the three month period ending March 31, 2011, representing an increase in gross profit for the period of $24,344. As noted up above, such results were well below anticipated performance.


Operating Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company's operating expenses increased substantially ($831,693 in 2012 versus $554,748 in prior year, an increase of $276,945, or 50%) when compared to the prior year. The increase was attributable to the Company's increased staffing and infrastructure growth required to properly address market opportunities and customer demand. This increase can best be seen in the year-over-year growth of the combined management and consulting and salary expenses ($559,859 in 2012 and $386,818 in 2011, an increase of $173,041, or 45%). Such item accounts for 62% of the increase ($276,945) in operating expenses. Another 19% of the increase in operating expenses is attributable to professional fees, which reached $92,437 in 2012 versus $39,806.

Accounts payable totaled $1,825,058 and accounts receivable were $2,132,643 at March, 31, 2012


Net Loss

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had a net loss of $1,027,410 or $(0.01) per share, which was an increase of $477,900 when compared to the net loss for the corresponding prior year period of $549,510 or $(0.01) per share. The increased loss was primarily due to increased operating expenses and the loss ($536,574) on debt settlement. The latter reflects the accounting loss, recorded on the date of such events based on fair market value(refer to Note 2).


Interest and other expenses

As shown in operating expenses, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had interest expenses of $15,254 compared with $18,580 for the corresponding period to March 31, 2011.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had current assets including cash on hand of $2,728,573 as at March 31, 2012 ($1,044,154 at March 31, 2011). The Company also had a net loss of $549,510 during the three months ended March, 31st 2011.

The Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,479,836 at March 31, 2012 ($1,718, 557 at March 31, 2011).

[Simonalex]

Für mich ist das hier das Wichtigste:

"Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had $59,285 in sales compared to $24,467 for the corresponding period in 2011. The increase in sales while significant as a percentage (142%) was well below the volume anticipated for the period as delays arose in proposal closing due to timing factors of qualified prospects of sales of mobile commerce and mobile security license software in the same period by Alternet Transaction Systems, (DBA Utiba Americas) and International Mobile Security.

Dieser letzte Satz in rot, ist doch sehr vage in seiner Bestimmtheit.

Sorry, aber für mich klingeln hier die Alarmglocken.

Die operativen Kosten steigen von 554K auf 831K und der Umsatz nimmt von 24K auf 59K zu.

Betriebswirtschaftlich betrachetet kann dies nicht lange gut gehen.

Ich bleibe drausen, da unter diesen Umständen die Aktie nur in eine Richtung gehen kann.

Moin ihr Zwei,

ich sehe es auch ein wenig anders, Simonalex.

Entscheidend ist ja auch der prozentuale Anstieg und der ist mit Verkäufen um 142% gestiegen, während die operativen Ausgaben um 50% gestiegen sind.

Ich gebe Dir aber Recht, Simonalex, da die Ausgaben immerhin um ca. 280.000 $ angestiegen sind, dass mehr Geld reinkommen muss.

Alternet sagt aber auch, dass einige Verkäufe nicht zum Quartalsende abgeschlossen werden konnten.

Cashflow ist ja deutlich um über 1 Mio $ gestiegen.

Man muss weiter abwarten, wie sich Alternet eintwickelt. Insgesamt gesehen, finde ich die strategische Ausrichtung und das Geschäftsfeld äußerst interessant.

Da Du an der Seitenlinie stehst, kannst Du Dir die Entwicklung ja sorglos anschauen

Gestern übrigens ein extrem erhöhter Umsatz - 240.000 Stücke.
"Normal" sind 10.000 bis vielleicht mal 40.000.
Kurs dabei + 2 Cent.

Ich hatte ein Vögelchen zwitschern hören, daß SEHR kurzfristig news anständen. Da ich aber sowas für i.d.R. Wichtigtuerei halte, habe ich es hier auch nicht gepostet.
Der Volumenanstieg könnte allerdings dazu passen´, daher jetzt doch ein entsprechendes posting.

Die Wahrscheinlichkeit aber ist sehr hoch, daß das blinder Alarm ist, wie ich finde.

Ich hatte auch den starken Umsatzanstieg gesehen.

Heute gibts 3 Cent obendrauf bei normalen Umsätzen, allerdings nicht wie sonst zum Börsenschluss oder -beginn wieder künstlich hochgezogen.

Wollen wir mal auf gute News hoffen. Weißt Du in welche Richtung das gehen würde, Praesens? Vertrag mit einem neuen Unternehmen?

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 43.202.404 von asthmamoah am 23.05.12 17:24:49

Hallo ihr Zwei,

Die 142% Anstieg klingt zwar gut, aber von der geringen Basis betrachtet ist das nichtssagend.

"Verkäufe zu Quartalsende nicht abgeschlossen": Sie sagen nicht, dass die im nächsten Quartal stattfinden, sondern hoffen, dass dies irgendwann im laufenden Jahr geschehen wird und nennen auch keine Bandbreite.

Cashflow: sagt hier nichts aus, ist nur Geld gegen neue Aktien, was eine starke Verwässerung bewirkt.

Am Mittwoch wurde der Kurs von 0.19 cent mit 200 Stück - das wären dann mal 40 Dollar - auf 0.23 cent hochgezogen. Um weiter neue Aktien zu verkaufen (an Dritte) ist es natürlich gut, wenn der Kurs hoch steht.

Ok, wenn da wirklich die dicken Fische anbeissen, kann's was werden.
Ich sehe hier die Chancen jedoch weit unter 50%, dass wir nächstens oder überhaupt steigen im Aktienpreis.

Um nur den aktuellen Aktienpreis zu rechtfertigen brauchen wir das 10 fache des letzten Umsatzes. Dann wären wir bei 600K Umsatz, aber immer noch mit einem operativen Verlust von weit über 200K und einem Reinverlust von über 400K,

Nettoverlust von 1.027 Mio. bei 59K Umsatz und 21K Bruttogewinn.

Mit anderen Worten:

pro 108$ Verlust steuert der Umsatz 4$ dazu, sodass er letztlich dann 102$ beträgt, bei einem Bruttogewinn von gerade mal 2$.

Hätten sie gar keinen Umsatz erzielt wäre der Verlust statt 1.027 Mio. gerade mal 21K höher, nämlich 1.048 Mio.

Jeder muss selber wissen was er tut. Ich habe Betriebswirtschaft studiert und bin mich gewohnt Zahlen zu analysieren. Der einzige Weg dies kurzfristig zu finanzieren ist "Aktiendrucken" und verkaufen. Keine Bank gibt hier Kredit und wenn hier nicht massiv höherer Umsatz bei gleichbleibenden operativen Kosten reinkommt, sehe ich schwarz.

OK,ich bin hier nicht investiert und sehe deshalb ohne Rosabrille.


Wenn hier die Supernews kommt ist alles ok, wenn nicht muss man bereit sein einen Totalverlust in Kauf zu nehmen.

Grüsse

Simonalex

Hast Recht, Simonalex, da muss sich umsatztechnisch schon einiges tun. Es kann sicherlich in einem Totalverlust enden. Wer das aus dem Blick verliert, ist selbst Schuld.

Es ist aber auch ein Start-up Unternehmen und ich gehe auch von künftigen Verwässerungen aus, damit Kohle für Alternet zum Überleben reinkommt. Es ist für mich die Gradwanderung zwischen einer rechtzeitigen nachhaltigen Markteinführung von Unternehmensprodukten (mit dem Abwerfen von entsprechenden Gewinnen) bevor die Verluste ein Unternehmen auffressen.

Hab übrigens versehentlich die 200 Stück als 20.000 Stück gelesen. Danke nochmal für den Hinweis.

Subject: U:ALYI Utiba, Leading Provider of Mobile Financial Services Solutions, Expands Presence in the Americas


Utiba, Leading Provider of Mobile Financial Services Solutions, Expands Presence in the Americas
Ticker Symbol: U:ALYI


MIAMI, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 06/01/12

After three years of successfully marketing Utiba Mobility mobile financial services solutions in the Americas, Utiba has decided to expand its presence in the market and bring development resources closer to its fast growing customer base in Latin America.

Launched in early 2010, Utiba Americas is Utiba's affiliate for the Americas region and the result of a joint venture with Miami based, publicly traded Alternet Systems (OTCQB: ALYI). Utiba Americas offers the leading Utiba end to end mobile financial service solution as a hosted service and as a traditional software license. Since its launch, the company has implemented mobile financial service solutions in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Guatemala, with further implementations under way in Venezuela, Honduras and Mexico. Utiba Americas and Utiba expect to be present in 14 countries in the Americas including the United States and Canada by the end of 2013, serving a potential market of over 600 million mobile and internet users and a population of over 900 million people.

Given the number of regional mobile payment projects the company is deploying, and the overall growth of the industry in the region, Utiba decided it made sense to locate more resources close to this growing customer base. After a careful analysis of cost and quality of the available technical talent, including software developers, Utiba executives decided to locate a development center in the region, complementing its other global development centers in India, Vietnam and Australia. The South Florida staff is in addition to the sales, marketing, implementation and technical support personnel already in place in Miami.

Continued core technology development and third party integration are also required to fulfill the objectives of the company's recently announced Converging Payments initiative -- which calls for the development and deployment of more sophisticated mobile financial services in partnership with companies like MasterCard and Validsoft.

Utiba Co-CEO Richard Matotek commented enthusiastically on the development, saying, "In three short years the Americas have become Utiba's fastest growing region worldwide, complementing the company's large installed base in Asia-Pacific and India, and growing presence in Africa. The local development center will ensure that our customers' needs are met in a timely manner and also advance Utiba's Converging Payments solutions, which will bring sophisticated financial services and global acceptance to the unbanked populations of the Americas. It is very exciting and fulfilling time in the company's history.

User jimrockford, durch dessen blog ich seinerzeit auf Alternet aufmerksam geworden bin, auf stockhoause dazu:

"... This NR is from Utiba (which owns 49% of Utiba Americas) - not from Alternet (which owns 51% of Utiba Americas). In saying that, they both have shared staff at their HQ in Miami. My very educated guess is this was put out in conjunction with a very-soon-to-hit piece from Alternet ..."

Wäre schön, wenn er Recht behält. Logisch zumindest wäre es.

Gruß, praesens

[praesens]

Nochmal Selbiger:

"That NR from Utiba is excellent (and I will be commenting on it a little later) and tells a lot about what they are doing on this side of the globe - ie. with Utiba Americas. I expect, though, a whopper of a NR from Alternet very d--n shortly."

Und nochmal: hoffentlich behält er Recht !

Gruß, praesens

[praesens]

Es macht zur Zeit wirklich gar keinen Spaß, Alternet zu verfolgen.
Der Kurs fällt und fällt.

Es könnte sein, daß das lange Warten auf news, die bei Alternet schon immer dünn gesät waren, bei Vielen die Geduld reißen läßt.

Fundamental sehe ich zumindest keine Gründe. Natürlich habe ich kein Nachtsichtgerät - ist nur mein Eindruck bzw. meine Interpretation.


Im Folgenden ein Beitrag von dontknowmuch von stockhouse:

"
OK, I spent 15 years in a business partnership - because of that I am cynical about ALL partnerships, joint ventures, etc. The most important lesson I learned from that experience – NEVER get in a position where you have more to lose than your partner(s). So that is my starting point and this is just my opinion!

Just under two years ago when I started following ALYI - the joint venture looked like a pretty sweet deal for Utiba. Utiba had been around since 2001, was well established and was growing in the Asia-Pacific & India regions so the Utiba Americas (UA) joint venture with Alternet was an easy way to test the LAC region. If sales happened UA pays Utiba for the licenses and Utiba earns the support and maintenance fees that are associated with the license sales so any sales at all are a plus for Utiba. If sales didn’t happen, the market was wrong or whatever…… Utiba was only committed to 49% of the costs of UA. That would be the financial cost of testing the Latin American & Caribbean (LAC) region. Utiba’s reputation might take a bit of a hit but after the fact it would be easy to point the finger at the lead partner in the region.

At the point of the joint venture, Alternet essentially was starting over and became a “development stage” company. In my opinion it was a pretty gutsy gamble! If sales didn’t happen, the market was wrong or whatever……well, it wouldn’t be pretty…….fortunately in my opinion we don’t have to worry about that!

So what is different now? It is called commitment:

to me Utiba will now be fully committed to the LAC region
to me they are saying UA our joint venture is no longer a “test” in LAC region
to me they are saying we are now here to support the growth in this region – I suspect that some potential customers have tried to do an “end around” UA and go directly to Utiba
UA is not just a “one hit wonder” with Movilway - the potential customer base is huge
UA has gained traction we are here to stay, grow and compete!
Utiba knows the details of all the signed/sealed sales, contracts, etc.
Utiba knows the details of the “15 qualified open prospects”

I think the last two points are significant, we only know what we are told in news releases, which isn’t much and not in great detail - we are left to speculate. In my comments on the Letter to Shareholders (LTS), I provided a few details that I found about the customers mentioned in the LTS…this news release mentioned Columbia, Honduras and Mexico….none were mentioned in the LTS.

I started digging again with renewed enthusiasm after Friday’s Utiba news release and found a few more interesting details……………

………..to be continued!

"The following is from the "freebie" version of TomiAhonen's Mobile Forecast 2012-2015 (link below):

The author provides a free 10 data point blog and then summarizes as follows:

......."That is a little bit of a preview into this next few years in mobile. The growth opportunity in mobile is the biggest economic opportunity of our lifetimes. No wonder Apple Computer changed its name to Apple, calls itself a mobile company and now is the most profitable company on the planet. No wonder Google says 'put your best people on mobile'. No wonder Ford says that mobile will be part of every advertising campaign they do on any media platforms. No wonder the BBC says that all broadcast content, TV and radio, will be available on mobile. No wonder Visa says the future of money, the future of payments is mobile. No wonder Carlos Slim replaced Bill Gates as the wealthiest person on the planet. Bill Gates built his empire on the profitable PC software industry. Carlos Slim out of Mexico now runs his empire on the most profitable part of the tech industry, mobile telecoms with his America Movil empire stretching from Argentina across all of the Americas to the USA and now even across the Atlantic to the Netherlands. No matter what your career is involved in, this decade you will be doing more mobile than anything else."

The freebie version of selected highlights has 10 data points. The "paid for" forecast has 110 data points across 4 years, so it has in total 440 data points. If you are involved in strategic planning in mobile, if this blog was useful for you, that Forecast is probably a 'must-read' document. Obviously most of them are not as dramatic 'milestones' as these ten items in fhe freebie blog.

I found the "freebie" blog an interesting read but I didn't buy the paid version of the forecast!!!

press release

June 7, 2012, 11:22 a.m. EDT

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Partner Utiba Expands Presence in the Americas

MIAMI, FL, Jun 07, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Alternet Systems, Inc. (otcqb:ALYI) is pleased to announce the expansion in the Americas of its partner Utiba, leading provider of mobile financial services solutions. Based upon the success of Utiba Americas, Utiba's affiliate in the Americas in partnership with Alternet, Utiba has decided to locate a software development center in South Florida, close to its fastest growing client base in Latin America.

In 2010 Utiba Americas began actively marketing the Utiba Mobility end to end mobile financial service solution as a hosted service and as a traditional software license. Since that time the company has sold and implemented mobile financial service solutions in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Guatemala, with further implementations under way in Venezuela, Honduras and Mexico. Utiba expects to be present in 14 countries in the Americas including the United States and Canada by the end of 2013. This growing customer base has compelled Utiba to place development resources in the US to speed customer deployments and support for its evolving mobile financial services platform.

In February of this year Utiba launched its Converging Payments strategy which promises to bring more sophisticated mobile financial services to its customers (mobile operators, financial institutions and third party payment networks) and their mobile wallet subscribers, which are often unbanked or underserved populations.

[praesens]

Etwas zum Nachprüfen, von user dontknowmuch von stockhouse:


"Utiba News Release….my thoughts…continuation of my June 3rd post:

The news release mentioned Columbia, Honduras and Mexico….none were detailed in the summary of sales to date in the Letter to Shareholders (LTS):

Columbia

I believe one of the deals is with UFF!, a relatively new MVNO owned by the Ardila Lulle business group. It is one of 3 MVNO’s that use the TIGO network in Columbia. UFF! was launched about Nov. 2010; in Sept. 2011 they had about 210,000 subscribers and by Dec. 2011 that number had grown to approximately 250,000 subscribers.
I believe that a second deal in Columbia is with TIGO that operates Daviplata. This appears to be a joint operation between TIGO and Comcel (99.4% owned by America Movil). If you go to the Utiba website customers page where the deployment map shows Utiba’s customers and put your cursor on “Columbia” it will show you Tigo.

Honduras

In my comments on the LTS I pointed out that the contract in Guatemala is with Claro - owned by America Movil (AM). It is hard to search “mobile” without seeing AM come into the picture somewhere, especially in Latin America. It is one big company with many subsidiaries. America Movil Central America is one of those subsidiaries and it includes Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Panama, and Costa Rica. I believe that the contract in Honduras is again with Claro, hopefully it is Hosted Services like Guatemala and that the other Central American countries will follow in time! The product in Guatemala is “Bancamigo” with Claro and Banrural Bank. In recent months Banrural has expanded into Honduras with plans to invest $ 40 million and open 21 branches with longer term plans to expand into El Salvador. Claro committed to invest an additional $150 million in Honduras. In early 2011 Claro negotiated a deal with Digicel (different from Digitel in Venezuela) with an acquisition/swap of services in Honduras for services in Jamaica. Claro consolidating/expanding in Central America while Digicel was strengthening their holdings in the Caribbean. Hmmm….…..may have to have a look at Digicel out of curiosity. I would not be surprised to see Claro using the Utiba platform throughout all the countries in Central America in 2012/13.

Mexico

If you again go to the Utiba deployment map you will see that when you put your cursor over Mexico the pop up will show you “ezuza”. It appears that the ezuza website is “under construction”. I know work was done by Utiba but I don’t know …yet…where it is headed or for whom it was done! We can only speculate…….

Have a great night!

Interessanter Artikel über die Mobile Payment Partnerschaft zwischen Mastercard und Deutsche Telekom für den deutschen Markt.

MOBILE PAYMENT | 07.07.2012

Telekom: "Wir schaffen eine neue Welt des Zahlens"

Über die Ziele und Hintergründe der neuen Partnerschaft von Mastercard und Deutsche Telekom sprach derhandel.de mit den zuständigen Managern Peter Vesco und Christian Stolz.





Telekom und Mastercard wollen die Geldbörse auf das Smartphone bringen.

+
Am Montag dieser Woche gaben die Deutsche Telekom und der Kreditkartenanbieter Mastercard eine europaweite Zusammenarbeit bekannt, um das Bezahlen mit dem Smartphone zu forcieren. derhandel.de interviewte Christian Stolz, General Manager Deutschland von Mastercard und Peter Vesco, Leiter der Payment-Geschäfte der Deutschen Telekom AG, zu dem gemeinsamen Vorhaben.

Im Juli 2011 startete Google Wallet in den USA, seither gab es unzählige Ankündigungen von Kooperationen und Projekten für mobile Zahlungslösungen. Was ist das Besondere an der von Ihnen verkündeten "strategischen Partnerschaft"?
Peter Vesco: Die Telekom bietet nicht nur eine Wallet. Unser Ziel ist es, mit unseren Angeboten die gesamte Wertschöpfungskette des Zahlungsverkehrs abzudecken. Mit unserem Partner Mastercard werden wir dazu Bezahlkarten an unsere Kunden ausgeben - in Form von NFC-Stickern für das Smartphone, auf der SIM-Karte von NFC-fähigen Geräten oder als virtuelle Karte für Transaktionen im Internet. Gleichzeitig wollen wir am anderen Ende der Wertschöpfungskette aktiv werden und gemeinsam mit dem Handel und anderen Akzeptanzstellen die Infrastruktur für die NFC-Technologie ausbauen und gestalten.

Die Wallet ist dabei das Herzstück unserer Strategie. Unsere Kunden erhalten mit ihr die Möglichkeit, alle für sie relevanten Zahlkarten, Bonusprogramme, Bahn-, Flug- und Konzerttickets sicher auf ihrem Smartphone abzulegen. Das Konzept ist als offene Plattform konzipiert, die unterschiedliche Banken, Kreditkartenorganisationen, Mobile-Commerce- und Couponing-Anbieter sowie Betreiber von Loyalty-Programmen für ihre Angebote nutzen können.

Christian Stolz: Als Kreditkartenorganisation geht es uns darum, den Bargeldanteil in Europa weiter zu reduzieren und den Konsumenten Lösungen für mobile Zahlungen anzubieten, die marktfähig und smart sind. Wir wollen, dass das Smartphone auch zum "Smart Payment" genutzt werden kann.

Mit einem großen Parkhausbetreiber hat die Telekom bereits einen Akzeptanzpartner unter Vertrag genommen. Wollen Sie den etablierten Netzbetreibern für das bargeldlose Bezahlen Konkurrenz machen?
Vesco: Wir werden auch als kaufmännischer Netzbetreiber agieren, aber nicht im klassischen Sinn. Wir wollen unseren Geschäftskunden vielmehr Komplettlösung für den bargeldlosen Zahlungsverkehr aus einer Hand bieten. Händler, die ein stationäres Geschäft und einen Onlineshop betreiben, können beispielsweise unsere Leistungen als Payment-Service-Provider und Netzbetreiber in Anspruch nehmen.





"93 Millionen Telekom-Kunden in 12 europäischen Ländern", Christian Stolz, Deutschlandchef von Mastercard.

+
Darüber hinaus können wir aufgrund der E-Money-Lizenz der ClickandBuy Handelsunternehmen auch die Ausgabe von Co-Branding-Kreditkarten anbieten. Wir können also dem Handel ermöglichen eigene NFC-fähige Kundenkarten mit Zahlungsfunktion über uns herauszugeben. Wir stellen also nicht nur Kartenterminals am POS auf, sondern kümmern uns um das gesamte Projektgeschäft.

Welche Zielgruppe fassen Sie dabei ins Auge, kleine und mittlere Handelsunternehmen oder eher internationale Konzerne?
Vesco: Im Fokus stehen für uns nicht nur Händler, sondern auch Automatenaufsteller und Verkehrsbetriebe. Der sogenannte Tickteting-Bereich ist aus zweierlei Hinsicht wichtig. Zum einen, um den Konsumenten an das neue Zahlverfahren zu gewöhnen. Zum anderen, weil der Bedarf auf der Seite der Automatenaufsteller sehr groß ist. Das Cashhandling ist in diesem Bereich ein teueres Geschäft. Gleichzeitig haben wir als multinationales Unternehmen natürlich die Möglichkeit, Handelskunden länderübergreifend in ganz Europa zu begleiten und zu betreuen - wie dies ein nationaler Netzbetreiber nicht leisten kann. Wir sprechen mit großen internationalen Handelsketten, die Interesse an unserer Lösung zeigen.

Wir wollen aber auch Händler gewinnen, die bislang noch gar keine bargeldlosen Zahlungen akzeptieren. Hierzu werden wir eine mobile Kartenakzeptanz mit Hilfe von Zusatzgeräten für das Smartphone anbieten - wie man es von Square oder PayPal-Here kennt. Das ist insbesondere für Bäckereien, Taxibetriebe und Handwerker interessant, die sich kein Terminal aufstellen. Diesen Kunden ermöglichen wir eine mobile Zahlungsakzeptanz.

Und dieses Gerät kann dann neben Kredit- und auch EC-Karten verarbeiten?
Vesco: Unser Fokus liegt aktuell zunächst auf unserer Partnerschaft mit Mastercard, aber theoretisch kann man mit diesen Aufsteckgeräten alle relevanten Zahlkarten akzeptieren.

Welche Partner sind für die Wallet-Lösung konkret vorgesehen? Die Lebensmittel-Zeitung berichtete von Gesprächen mit der Deutschen Bahn und Lufthansa...
Vesco: ...das will ich nicht kommentieren. Die Wallet lebt natürlich von den richtigen Partnern, weil erst dadurch ein Mehrwert für den Kunden entsteht. Denn die Zahlungsfunktion allein bringt kaum Zusatznutzen. Wir reden mit mehreren internationalen Partnern über eine Zusammenarbeit.

Nun können Sie ja schon aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit nicht zig verschiedene Handelsunternehmen in die Wallet bringen. Sprechen Sie mit branchenübergreifenden Bonusprogrammen?
Vesco: Wir verfolgen ein europäisches Projekt und eine unserer Stärken ist, dass wir in den lokalen Märkten zu Hause sind, im Gegensatz etwa zu großen amerikanischen Anbietern, die mit Mobile-Payment-Lösungen experimentieren. Wir haben die Kompetenz zu sagen, wer die interessanten Partner im jeweiligen Land sind. Es gibt Länder, in denen wir sehr lokal vorgehen werden und andere, in denen wir mit multinationalen Partnern arbeiten werden. Wenn man in Tschechien, Albanien oder Mazedonien unterwegs ist, sind dort natürlich andere Loyalty-Partner relevant als in Deutschland oder Polen.

Müssen die Anbieter dafür bezahlen, in der Wallet aufgenommen zu werden?
Vesco: Es wird sehr unterschiedliche, individuelle SIM-Hosting-Fees geben. Je nach Geschäftsmodell des Dienstes sind Einmal-Gebühren, monatliche Kosten oder transaktionsbezogene Entgelte denkbar.

Wie viele Karten - respektive Sticker - wollen Sie im kommenden Jahr herausgeben?
Vesco: Wir wollen noch keinen Zahlen nennen. Da bitte ich um Verständnis.





"Wir wollen End-to-End-Anbieter im Zahlungsverkehr werden", Peter Vesco, Deutsche Telekom AG.

+
Sie starten in Kürze in Polen, Deutschland und weitere europäische Länder sollen sukzessive folgen. Nach welchem Muster wollen Sie vorgehen?
Vesco: Der Roll-Out der Wallet wird abhängig von der NFC-Infrastruktur auf Handels- und Konsumentenseite in den jeweiligen Ländern sein. Wir starten demnächst in Polen, Deutschland soll im ersten Halbjahr 2013 folgen. Wir setzen aber nicht ausschließlich auf die NFC-Technologie. Es wird auch Länder geben, in denen wir mit alternativen Zahlmethoden wie dem Scannen von QR-Codes arbeiten werden. Dort wo der NFC-Roll-Out noch lange dauern wird, werden wir den Markt mit adäquaten Brückentechnologien erschließen.

Wie sieht es mit den Kosten aus? Bekommen die Kunden Wallet und Karte im Bundle mit dem Handyvertrag?
Vesco: Unser Interesse ist es, eine höchstmögliche Penetration in schnellstmöglicher Zeit zu erreichen, daher werden wir die Eintrittsbarrieren für die Kunden so niedrig wie möglich halten. Eine digitale Karte könnten wir auch kostenfrei abgeben. Der Sticker aber wird zumindest eine Schutzgebühr kosten, damit wir sicher sein können, dass der Kunde auch ein Interesse daran hat. Auch hier werden wir aber in verschiedenen Märkten unterschiedlich vorgehen, mit Blick auf die jeweilige Wettbewerbssituation.

Was hat Mastercard von der Kooperation?
Stolz: Die Partnerschaft mit einem so wichtigen Markteilnehmer im mobilen Bereich wird die Entwicklung dieses neuen Zahlungssystems, auch in Deutschland massiv vorantreiben. Wir profitieren von den Zahlungstransaktionen, die über Mastercard-Produkte abgewickelt werden. Für uns ist es nicht relevant, ob die Zahlung über die Karte erfolgt oder über das Smartphone.

Wie viele Paypass-Akzeptanzstellen gibt es denn in Deutschland derzeit, neben den Filialen der Douglas Holding und den Aral-Tankstellen?
Stolz: Auch in Deutschland beschränkt es sich heute schon nicht mehr auf die Filialen der Douglas Holding und Aral-Tankstellen, aber die genannten Unternehmen sind richtig. Für die lokalen Märkte kommunizieren wir keine Zahlen. Weltweit gibt es mittlerweile rund 400.000 Paypass-Akzeptanzstellen. Darüber hinaus wächst die NFC-Infrastruktur im Handel ständig, die neuen Generationen von Kartenterminals haben die Funktion bereits integriert. Durch die strategische Partnerschaft wollen wir effektive und effiziente Mobile-Payment-Lösungen für über 93 Millionen Telekom-Kunden in 12 Ländern liefern. Diese Partnerschaft wird dazu beitragen, unsere klassischen Bankpartner noch besser bei der Anpassung an neue Verbraucherverhalten und die sich verändernde Marktdynamik zu unterstützen.





Kooperation auf höchster Ebene: René Obermann, CEO Deutsche Telekom und Ajay Banga, CEO Mastercard.

Und wie sieht es mit der NFC-Fähigkeit von Smartphones aus, ohne die die Wallet ja nur sehr eingeschränkt nützlich ist?
Vesco: Auch hier wird das Angebot immer breiter. Neben dem Galaxy Nexus und Geräten von Blackberry und Nokia gibt es das aktuell sehr attraktive Galaxy S III und schon im nächsten Jahr werden die Kunden sicher noch zahlreiche Geräte von verschiedenen Herstellern in unterschiedlichen Preisklassen zur Verfügung haben.

Wie sieht es mit dem iPhone aus, das ja kein ganz unbedeutendes Smartphone ist? Denken Sie an eine Lösung für Passbook oder setzen Sie darauf, dass die nächste iPhone-Generation mit NFC-Technik ausgerüstet ist?
Vesco: Kein Kommentar dazu.

Die Telekom verfolgte gemeinsam mit Vodafone und O2 das Projekt mpass für Online- und mobile Zahlungen. Bedeutet die Kooperation mit Mastercard das Ende von mpass?
Vesco: Nein, die Payment-Strategie der Deutschen Telekom ist ein europäisches Projekt. Deshalb wollten wir mit Mastercard einen Partner haben, der uns technologisch und von der Akzeptanzseite her weiterhilft. Wir sind in den USA mit ISIS unterwegs und kooperieren in England mit Orange UK bei „Everything Everywhere". Wir verfolgen Initiativen in Tschechien und vieles mehr. Unsere Basisstrategie, in den Zahlungsverkehrsmarkt vorzudringen, wird Land für Land angepasst. Wir sehen daher keinen Grund dafür, mpass in frage zu stellen.

Nein. Ich nicht.
Denke aber auch, daß der Kurs seit dem Hoch bei ca. 40 Cents berechtigterweise wieder gefallen ist.
War ein zu langer Zeitraum ohne substantielle gute news, als daß er sich hätte halten können.
Wir gehen aber jetzt stark auf den Quartalsbericht für April - Juni zu, und es wird wohl allgemein ein sehr deutlich höherer Umsatz gegenüber den 3 Monaten davor erwartet.

[praesens]

Die Spannung steigt ...

Wenn mal mal auf sedar.com nachschaut, hat Alternet die volle 60-Tages-Frist, die sie hätten, um die quarterlys zu veröffentlichen, i.d.R. nie ganz ausgenutzt.
Es könnte also sein, daß so zwischen dem 15. und dem 20. das quarterly für April - Juni rauskommt.

Bin gespannt auf die Umsätze, bzw. ob wir signifikante sehen, oder doch noch mal 3 Monate warten müssen.

Hoffentlich nicht 3 Monate zu früh ...

Hi Praesens,

ich denke, dass war nicht die schlechteste Entscheidung. Die 200 Tage Linie verläuft auch bei ca. 0,19 Cents.
Obwohl die Charttechnik bei solchen Aktien mit Vorsicht zu geniesen ist, wäre es ein schönes Signal.

"Utiba’s Mobile Financial Services Platform to Be Available as a Software as a Service (SaaS) Worldwide.

Utiba, leading provider of mobile financial service solutions, announced today the global expansion of its Software as a Service (SaaS) offering. Launched initially in the Americas and later extended to Eurasia, hosted services have been positively received by financial institutions, mobile network operators, and payment service providers seeking a robust and flexible platform on which to rapidly launch their mobile financial services.

Utiba’s SaaS offering currently supports customers in Central America and Eurasia, and is being launched in other Latin America countries of Bolivia, Colombia, Peru and Mexico, as well as in Asia Pacific. The market’s enthusiastic response has led Singapore-based Utiba to expand the hosted services model globally, with regional points of presence (POPs) planned for Asia, India, Eastern Europe and the Middle East / Africa.

Tja, wohl zu früh nachgekauft:

http://biz.yahoo.com/e/120814/alyi10-q.html

"... Six months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to the Six months Ended June 30, 2011

Net Sales

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had $276,300 in sales compared to $76,844 for the corresponding period in 2011. Sales increased significantly in percentage terms (260%) but coming in well below the volume anticipated for the period as delays arose in closing qualified prospects of mobile commerce and mobile security license software by Alternet Transaction Systems, (DBA Utiba Americas) and International Mobile Security. Based on client feedback, management continues to anticipate closing such proposals during the current year. The delays were due in part to the long, complex, business to business sales cycle, the slow evolution of mobile money regulations in different countries, and delays not uncommon in the rollout of new technology. Additionally, in Utiba Americas, the transition from sales of software licenses to sale of Software as a Service (SaaS) adversely affected the timing of revenue recognition. In the former's case, revenue reflects the one-time nature of the sale and is recognized at the time of the contract. SaaS revenue, on the other hand, is recognized over the term of the contract, typically being three to five years, based on the number of users and/or transactions. Management is cognizant of the timing issue and believes that the longer term and more reliable transactional revenue will generate significantly greater value to the Company. Moreover, the market for the Company's SaaS offering is expected to be significantly greater than straight license sales.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $162,268 in the six months ending June 30, 2012 compared to $26,196 in the six month period ending June 30, 2011, representing an increase in gross profit for the period of $136,072. As noted up above, such results were well below anticipated performance.

Ich denke, daß einfach bereits mehr erwartet wurde.
Wird dann wohl noch 1 - 2 Quartale dauern, bis der Umsatz im Millionen-Bereich ist.

Aber die story stimmt hier einfach, wie Du bereits sagtest. Zukunftsmarkt ...


Was Deine Frage zu Utiba und Mastercard in Europa angeht ... ich glaube nicht.
Ich beschäftige mich nicht so tief mit Utiba, aber mein Eindruck ist, daß sie in der Hauptsache in Entwicklungsländern und Schwellenländern aktiv sind. Das zeigt ein bißchen auch die folgende Grafik:

Zitat von Simonalex: Für mich ist das hier das Wichtigste:

"Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had $59,285 in sales compared to $24,467 for the corresponding period in 2011. The increase in sales while significant as a percentage (142%) was well below the volume anticipated for the period as delays arose in proposal closing due to timing factors of qualified prospects of sales of mobile commerce and mobile security license software in the same period by Alternet Transaction Systems, (DBA Utiba Americas) and International Mobile Security. Based on client feedback, management continues to anticipate closing such proposals during the current year."

Dieser letzte Satz in rot, ist doch sehr vage in seiner Bestimmtheit.

Sorry, aber für mich klingeln hier die Alarmglocken.

Die operativen Kosten steigen von 554K auf 831K und der Umsatz nimmt von 24K auf 59K zu.

Betriebswirtschaftlich betrachetet kann dies nicht lange gut gehen.

Ich bleibe drausen, da unter diesen Umständen die Aktie nur in eine Richtung gehen kann.

Das waren die Zahlen für die letzen drei Monate (Zum schnellen Vergleich).

Somit Umsatz der letzen 3 Monate ca. $216,000

[Simonalex]

Hallo zusammen



Ich bleibe draussen, mindestens die nächsten zwei Quartale.
Der Verlust für 6 Monate war bei 1,75 Mio bei einem Umsatz von 0.276 Mio.
Selbst wenn der Umsatz in den nächsten 3 Monaten sich auf 0.4 Mio verdoppelt und für die übernächsten 3 Monate nochmals auf 0.8 Mio. (optimistische Annahmen) würde Ende Jahr immer noch ein Gesamtverlust von ca. 3 Mio. resultieren bei einem Jahresumsatz von 1.5 Mio.
Sie werden Aktien drucken müssen (Dillution)


Wenn ich das untenstehende als Aussenstehender ganz nüchtern lese, kann ich mir nicht vorstellen, dass die Aktie gross steigen wird. Da müsste fast ein Wunder geschehen. Ok ich bin draussen und muss es nicht durch die Rosabrille betrachten.

Wenn ich jetzt noch investiert wäre würde ich gute Kurse für einen Teil- oder Totalausstieg nutzen.

Ich wage mal ein Prognose: Wir werden hier die 5 cents sehen, bei den nächsten Zahlen, wenn sich der Umsatz gemessen am Vorquartal nicht mindestens verdoppelt auf 0.4 Mio.

Falls der Juli super gelaufen wäre, würde der Ausblick vom Managment etwas positiver klingen als er dies eben tut.





Operating Expenses

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company's operating expenses increased ($1,738,147 in 2012 versus $1,262,004 in prior year, an increase of $476,460, or 38%) when compared to the prior year. The increase was attributable to the Company's increased staffing and infrastructure growth required to properly address market opportunities and customer demand. This increase can best be seen in the year-over-year growth of the combined management and consulting and salary expenses ($1,158,546 in 2012 versus $903,660 in 2011, an increase of $254,886, or 28%). The management and consulting and salary expense increase accounts for 54% of the total $476,460 increase in operating expenses. Another 12% of the increase in operating expenses is attributable to professional fees, which reached $163,900 in 2012 versus $109,057.

Accounts payable totaled $1,166,871 and accounts receivable were $1,875,700 at June 30, 2012

Net Loss

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had a net loss of $1,768,028 or $(0.02) per share, which was an increase of $518,987 when compared to the net loss for the corresponding prior year period of $1,249,041 or $(0.01) per share. The higher loss was primarily due to increased operating expenses, foreign exchange losses of $253,147 (an increase of $252,830, versus $317 in the prior year) primarily attributable to operations in Venezuela, and higher loss on debt settlement (an increase of $459,855). The latter reflects the accounting loss, recorded on the date of such events, based on fair market value (refer to Note
2) and.

Interest and other expenses

As shown in operating expenses, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had interest expense of $115,605, including the $85,198 of warrants (refer to Note 8c) compared with $34,631 for the corresponding period to June 30, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had current assets including cash on hand of $2,371,668 as at June 30, 2012 ($1,070,800 at June 30, 2011).

The Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,351,487 at June 30, 2012 ($1,083,435 at June 30, 2011). Management of the Company has determined that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and achieving increased sales of its operating subsidiaries, Alternet Transaction Systems (DBA Utiba Americas), and International Mobile Security (IMS).

Management can give no assurance that any increase in sales will occur in the future and if they do occur, may not be enough to cover the Company's operating expenses or any other costs. Should this be the case, we would be forced, unless sufficient working capital can be raised, to suspend operations and possibly liquidate the assets and wind up and dissolve the Company.

RISK FACTORS

The Company is exposed to a number of risks, including the following:

� The Company may be unable to market and sell its products;
� The Company's sales are currently insufficient and its future prospects are dependent on the ability to market its products and services;
� The Company has a history of operating at a significant loss;
� The Company requires additional equity financing to continue operations and may be unable to obtain this financing;
� If further equity financing is obtained, it will dilute the value of existing shareholders' stock;
� The Company has limited working capital with which to continue operations; The Company is active in competitive industries and faces competition from more established companies with greater financial resources and established sales and distribution capabilities;
� The Company has a significant number of shares outstanding which may be eligible for resale under Rule 144 and which, if sold, could depress the market price of the Company's shares.

Our business operations are also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to those set forth below:


We have had negative cash flows from operations. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment.

To date we have had negative cash flows from operations and we have been dependent on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash needs. We expect positive cash flow from operations in 2012 but there is no assurance that actual cash requirements will not exceed our estimates, or that our sales projections will be realized as estimated. The occurrence of any of the aforementioned events could adversely affect our ability to meet our business plans.

In the near term we will depend on outside capital to pay for the continued development of our business. Such outside capital may include the sale of additional stock and/or commercial borrowing. Capital may not continue to be available to meet these continuing development costs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital and adversely impact our operations.

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because our operations have been primarily financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be especially detrimental to our liquidity and our continued operations. Any reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future would force us to reallocate funds from other planned uses and would have a significant negative effect on our business plans and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations.

We have a history of losses and fluctuating operating results.

There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive cash flow in the future. In addition, our operating results in the future may be subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control, such as the unpredictability of when customers will purchase our products and/or services, the size of customers' purchases, the demand for our production and/or services, and the level of competition and general economic conditions. If we cannot generate positive cash flows in the future, or raise sufficient financing to continue our normal operations, then we may be forced to scale down or even close our operations.

We have a limited operating history and if we are not successful in continuing to grow our business, we may have to scale back or even cease our ongoing business operations.

We have limited history of revenues from operations and have limited significant tangible assets. We have yet to generate positive earnings and there can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. Our company has a limited operating history and must be considered in the development stage. Our company's operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a developing enterprise and the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. We are in the development stage and potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by enterprises in the development stage. If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's "Penny Stock" regulations, which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

Allerdings muss ich noch sagen, dass ich gestern bei 8 bis 9 cents auch wieder eingestiegen wäre, wenn ich es verfolgt hätte.
Nichts desto trotz würde ich die shares wieder kurzfristig verkaufen.

Bei den nächsten Zahlen werde ich auf jeden Fall das Tagesgeschehen verfolgen. Nach einem solchen Preiszerfall gibt es meistens einen rebound. Jedoch wird ein paar Tage später das alte Tief meistens nochmals getestet. Bin ja mal gespannt.

Hi simonalex,

da gebe ich Dir Recht, das hier ist ausschließlich eine Wette auf (stark) steigenden Umsatz.
Und genau dieser Satz
"Based on client feedback, management continues to anticipate closing such proposals during the current year."
führt mich dann wohl auch in Versuchung, bei einem Zwischenhoch erstmal zu verkaufen.
Ich würde mich dann, je nachdem wie die Dinge laufen, in ca. 5 Monaten neu positionieren.

Auszüge aus dem quarterly:

"the Company had $276,300 in sales compared to $76,844

Gross profit was $162,268 in the six months ending June 30, 2012 compared to $26,196

operating expenses increased ($1,738,147 in 2012 versus $1,262,004 in prior year, an increase of $476,460, or 38%

the Company had a net loss of $1,768,028 or $(0.02) per share, which was an increase of $518,987 when compared to the net loss for the corresponding prior year period of $1,249,041 or $(0.01) per share

The Company had current assets including cash on hand of $2,371,668 as at June 30, 2012 ($1,070,800 at June 30, 2011).

The Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,351,487 at June 30, 2012 ($1,083,435 at June 30, 2011)."


net sales + 260 %
gross profit + 520 %
operating expenses + 38 %
net loss + 42 %
assets + 118 %
working capital deficiency + 25 %

Die Richtung stimmt.
Akzeptiert man den Anstieg des net loss aufgrund der höheren operative expenses.
Aber - das ist auf diesem Niveau keine Garantie für eine Fortsetzung der Richtung ... wer Nichts hat und dazu noch Verluste macht, ist in Gefahr.

Also - steht mit Sicherheit eine Finanzierung an, auf welche Art und Weise auch immer. 6 Monats net loss knapp 1,8 mio, assets knapp 2,4 mio., wobei wohl der kleinste Teil davon cash sein dürfte.

Die burn-rate liegt bei ca. 300.000 / Monat.

Alternet (ALYI) Subsidiary and Partner Expand Cloud Based Mobile Payments Platform Worldwide
Alternet Subsidiary's Innovative Hosted Mobile Financial Services Platform to Be Available Worldwide Marketwire
MIAMI, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 08/16/12 -- Alternet Systems Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) today announced that its partner Utiba, leading provider of mobile financial service solutions, is expanding its Software as a Service (SaaS) offering worldwide. Launched initially by Utiba Americas, Utiba's affiliate for the Americas and joint venture with Alternet, the SaaS offering has been positively received in the market and currently supports customers in Central America and Eurasia. Launches are underway in other Latin America countries of Bolivia, Colombia, Peru and Mexico, as well as in Asia Pacific. The market's enthusiastic response has led Singapore-based Utiba to expand the hosted services model globally, with regional points of presence (POPs) planned for Asia, India, Eastern Europe and the Middle East / Africa.

The SaaS offering was designed to meet the needs of financial institutions, mobile network operators, and payment service providers seeking a robust and flexible platform on which to rapidly launch their mobile financial services.

This business model allows us to participate in mobile payment transactions taking place on the platform over a period of years, providing us with a recurring revenue stream, while assuming the important role of technology partner for our customers. Offering the Utiba platform as a service has been an important element of our success in the Latin American region," commented Alternet CEO Henryk Dabrowski.

Ein schöner Nachschlag zum quarterly.

Übrigens:
Die angesprochene Alternet Investoren Präsentation habe ich erhalten.
Muß mich dazu aber anmelden, und das klappt irgendwie nicht.
Habe um support gebeten, aber noch keine Antwort.
Werde das Wichtigste daraus dann natürlich hier einstellen.


Ich habe mir die Zahlen des vorherigen quarterly nicht angeschaut.
Aber anscheinend hat Alternet einen Zuwachs im Bestand an assets, der durch Umsatz oder Finanzierungen in der Höhe nicht entstanden sein kann.

Aus dem wenigen, was in stockhouse zu der Präsentation geschrieben wird, läßt sich herausziehen, daß Alternet offenbar Zahlungen von Kunden erhalten hat, aber den Service noch nicht geliefert hat (könnte z.B. innerhalb des SaaS-Modells sein: "Miete" im Voraus für 6 Monate).
Solange der Service aber nicht erbracht ist, darf Alternet anscheinend gemäß Bilanzierungsrichtlinien das Geld nicht als Guthaben ausweisen, sondern muß es als Schulden bilanzieren.

So gesehen mit ein Grund, neben dem natürlich vorhandenen langsameren Vorankommen als veranschlagt, für den unter Erwartung ausgefallenen Umsatz-Ausweis.

"Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Releases Letter to Shareholders Providing Updates on Advances in Mobile Payment and Cyber Security Subsidiaries

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire -08/22/12)- Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) today released a letter to shareholders from CEO and founder Henryk Dabrowski. The letter outlines Alternet's corporate investment and operational strategies and describes recent advancements made in both of its operating subsidiaries, Utiba Americas and International Mobile Security (IMS). The letter is included in its entirety below.

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

This letter is a follow up to our second quarter filings which were recently posted with the SEC on August 14th.

As Alternet's CEO and a major shareholder, and acting CEO of our mobile payments subsidiary, I can assure you that financial performance is a primary concern of our executive team and mine. The numbers, however, do not tell the whole story of what is occurring at Alternet and its operating subsidiaries, Utiba Americas and IMS, which is why I am prompted to write this letter.

Alternet's Investment Philosophy
Alternet's investments are in two high growth, emerging markets of mobile financial services (mobile payments) and cyber security. Both industries are evolving rapidly with the continued and unabated growth and adoption of mobile phones worldwide.

At the end of 2011 the world had 7 Billion people, and 5.9 Billion mobile phone subscriptions

The mobile phone has surpassed all technologies in numbers of adoption and sales. It brings inexpensive voice and text communications to almost every corner of the globe and to all levels of society. Increasingly, through growing access to data services, it is bringing internet access to the world. Most of these new internet users will never have used a PC. This new and ubiquitous platform is changing the way the world does business, and Alternet has made important investments to be a part of that change.

Utiba Americas' Software as a Service (SaaS) Offering & Revenue Implications
Currently, all of Alternet's revenues come from our mobile payments subsidiary Utiba Americas, a joint venture with Utiba Pte., Singapore-based developer of mobile financial services software. Utiba is a global leader in the industry. In eleven years it has deployed mobile payment platforms in more than thirty countries for leading mobile network operators and financial institutions.

Utiba Americas offers two types of mobile financial service solution -- the traditional one-time license sale, which includes annual maintenance fees, and the use of the Utiba platform on a "pay as you go" basis, also known as SaaS (Software as a Service). A typical SaaS contract has a three to five year term, and we make money incrementally, on a per user or per transaction basis. License sales have been largely responsible for the company's revenue to date but are expected to diminish in the near term. SaaS (Software as a Service), on the other hand, is experiencing significant demand primarily due to the increased entry of financial institutions, which are enjoying favorable regulatory treatment across the Americas region. Financial institutions are accustomed to long-term service agreements based on transactional fees, a fact that plays into Utiba Americas' product strategy and market position for two reasons; transactional revenue is historically more stable (think Visa, MasterCard, American Express) and engender long term relationships that are difficult to replace. SaaS permits Utiba Americas to become a long-term integral partner and to have a piece of the action.

The SaaS offering is an important innovation for our customers. It gives them access to a robust, proven and comprehensive mobile financial services platform on which to launch services with a smaller capital expenditure and lowered operating costs. This not only lowers their barriers to entry but also allows them to focus on marketing, sales, and customer service.

We strongly believe in the Software as a Service model. Similar, cloud based software offerings are taking hold worldwide. Software as a Service contracts however do not get booked in the same way as a traditional license sale, as the chart below demonstrates.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Software License Sale Software as a Service Sale
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contract Value Fixed* Contract Value Fixed
(Professional Fees) & Variable
(based on users or transactions)
Fees Booked & Collected within 1 Year Professional Service Fees
Collected within 1st year
Payments based upon deployment milestones Payments (above minimums) based
on usage
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Utiba collects software maintenance and support fees, typically 15% of the initial contract value per year, as it is the software developer and bears the R&D responsibility. Utiba Americas does not share in that revenue.

Hopefully this comparison illustrates why our booked revenues may be lower than expected. As we encounter success in selling the Utiba Americas' SaaS product, we will realize lower revenues upfront but will benefit from recurring revenues over a three to five year period.

Growing Footprint
Since our last shareholders letter of April 20th, in which we published a chart of customer accounts, we have advanced in negotiations with several other regional accounts that we hope to announce in the coming months. Until we have permission to do so, we cannot release customers' names or project scopes.

Two such imminent accounts are mentioned in the "subsequent events" section of the second quarter filing, the first is an important financial institution in South America which will use our hosted (SaaS) platform and with whom we are signing a three year contract, with a two year automatic renewal. The second event mentioned is a license sale with a third party payment provider in Central America, which has successfully completed a paid pilot and is currently in the final stage of contract negotiations.

We continue to make inroads with other regional and local clients throughout the Americas and Caribbean and are confident in our ability to reach our goal of live deployments in 14 countries in the Americas including the United States and Canada by the end of 2013, serving a potential market of over 600 million mobile and internet users and a population of over 900 million people.

Consolidation in Mobile Financial Service Software Providers
In 2010, French digital security company Gemalto, best known in telecommunications as a leading provider of SIM cards, acquired Trivnet, an Israeli developer of mobile financial service software, for US$40 million. This acquisition kicked off a slow wave of market consolidation which has slowly changed the competitive landscape for Utiba and Utiba Americas. In 2011, global card franchise Visa purchased South African platform developer Fundamo, for US$110 million and in 2012, Oberthur Technologies acquired Boston based MoreMagic, an electronic recharge (topup) developer that was increasingly making incursions into mobile financial services.

These acquisitions demonstrate the interest of global multinationals in securing their foothold in mobile payments and financial services, and are changing the playing field for us and our partner Utiba. We are increasingly finding ourselves as the only platform developer and solution provider exclusively focused on mobile financial services. This is an advantage as our competitors may be distracted by other corporate directives and slower decision making processes.

International Mobile Security - Cyber Security Subsidiary
International Mobile Security's (IMS) strategic partnership and reseller agreement with UK based Delma Technologies has amplified the company's international sales force and resulted in ongoing product demonstrations in several continents. These demonstrations are indicative of the interest in IMS' unique products for law enforcement, which we believe will translate into sales as we gain exposure through our relationship with Delma and others.

IMS has experienced delays closing proposals with prospective international law enforcement clients. In some instances the setbacks were due to national electoral cycles, in others simply because of the lengthy sales cycle common in government contracting.

IMS' software development team has continued to improve and increase the features of all the law enforcement products, which include lawful mobile interception; digital evidence collection, analysis and archiving; secure communications and document management and tracking. Other products targeting the location based services sector have been field tested and will be commercially available in the third quarter of 2012.

Additionally, IMS' development team has created a new customer demonstration portal which reduces the customization efforts to meet the requirements of every individual customer and expedites deployment time.

Conclusion
Alternet's management team continues to pour themselves enthusiastically into furthering the company's objectives through its subsidiaries. In addition to our roles at Alternet, each of us assumes an active role in all of our subsidiaries, as acting CEO, CFO, Vice Presidents of Marketing and Business Development.

As we head into the fall I look forward to sharing news of contract signings and project launches. These events will improve our operational cash flows, decrease our dependence on external financing, and further increase the value of our investments. We believe strongly in the opportunity and vision of enabling secure mobile commerce and communications and hope you will join us as we make it reality.

Sincerely,

Henryk Dabrowski
Alternet CEO

" Alternet (ALYI on the otcmarkets.com)

Alternet, IMHO, should have a lot of NRs from now until the end of the year. As well, I have done my DD and know of a lot of big players that are sniffing around.

The smaller players in the mobile banking space haven’t want anything said about their activities, as it has been a sprint for market share. The big boys (the banks, etc.) will want to get the news out, though, as they want everyone to jump on their system. This will create a “vacuum.”

The Utiba platform used by Utiba Americas (51% owned by Alternet and 49% owned by Utiba) is an “open platform.” This is huge, as every player (like the ‘big boys’ above) can utilize it to sell to their customer base. They can call it their platform, but the reality of it is that it will be the Utiba Americas platform – ie. it will be “white-labelled.”

Note: There are a lot of mobile banking companies entering the space, but not a lot of mobile platforms – and I believe that Utiba Americas has the only “open platform.”

This open platform can essentially be the backbone that entire countries can use to pay all government employees. This social side can be bigger than the service side – and it doesn’t have the slowness of initial adoption.

IMHO, watch for a great amount of consolidation in the next year or so. The smaller players are going to be bought out. And players like Alternet that have gained huge market share are going to be looked at very closely for acquisition by the very large entities out there."

" Alternet (ALYI on the otcmarkets.com)

Alternet, IMHO, should have a lot of NRs from now until the end of the year. As well, I have done my DD and know of a lot of big players that are sniffing around.The smaller players in the mobile banking space haven’t want anything said about their activities, as it has been a sprint for market share. The big boys (the banks, etc.) will want to get the news out, though, as they want everyone to jump on their system. This will create a “vacuum.”

Hi assa,

sagen wir so - er lag schon öfters mal daneben ...

Soweit ich Alternet richtig verstehe ist ihr Produkt "white-label"-fähig. Inwiefern es das einzige Produkt für diesen Markt ist mit dieser Eigenschaft entzieht sich meiner Kenntnis. Ist mir aber auch egal - Konkurrenz gibt´s immer.

Mit den news ist das so eine Sache. Ich gehe von Entwicklungen aus, die news-würdig sind. Ob die dann aber tatsächlich als news veröffentlicht werden, oder ob wir die Ergebnisse erst im nächsten quarterly sehen werden - wer weiß ...

Klar sniffen big players herum. Es wurden ja auch bereits kleinere player aufgekauft. Die Aussage ist also ganz allgemein gesehen richtig. Inwiefern das ganz speziell auch auf Alternet zutrifft - da sollte man wohl besser "know" durch "assume" ersetzen, also "vermuten" statt "wissen".

Gruß, praesens

[asthmamoah]

Danke Dir, Praesens.
Alternet hatte ja in seinem Letter an die Shareholders mitgeteilt, dass einige Deals kurz vor dem Abschluss ständen ... warten wir mal ab, was kommuniziert wird.

Utiba Announces Strategic Partnership With i2c, Inc.

Utiba Continues to Enhance Mobile Financial Services Offering by Adding i2c Processing Technology to Converging Payments Strategy

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire - Oct 1, 2012) - Utiba, a leading provider of mobile financial services solutions, and i2c, a payment processing technology company, have partnered to provide enhanced mobile financial services in the Americas region. The partnership with i2c gives Utiba's customers the ability to issue a card, both physical and virtual, that expands the use and acceptance of Utiba's mobile wallet at ATM machines, retail points of sale (POS) and for online purchases. These card products can be debit, credit and prepaid.

Utiba's customers -- financial institutions, mobile network operators and payment service providers -- will benefit from increased end user adoption and usage, increased transaction revenues and an enhanced user experience. In the Americas region, Utiba's customers are located in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras, and Peru, with additional countries in deployment. Utiba expects to have broad regional coverage in the Americas by the end of 2013, serving a potential market of over 600 million mobile and internet users and a population of over 900 million people.

Converging Payments

The relationship with i2c is another integral piece of Utiba's Converging Payments Strategy which was launched earlier this year with the announcement of the company's participation in MasterCard's Mobile Money Partnership. Utiba's strategy calls for the expansion of mobile financial services beyond a basic tool of financial inclusion for the "unbanked," a population estimated by the World Bank at 2.5 billion people worldwide. Partnerships with companies like MasterCard, Validsoft, and now i2c, permit Utiba to extend the acceptance of the mobile wallet and create more sophisticated mobile financial services, both of which increase mobile wallet adoption and transaction rates.

"Issuing a companion card linked to the mobile wallet expands the payment network to include existing points of sale (POS), ATMs and other outlets. This helps our customers to provide their end users with an existing payment ecosystem and acceptance network while building out their own agent networks. Our relationship with i2c is designed to give our customers the shortest possible time-to-revenue and growth," noted Utiba regional CEO Henryk Dabrowski. (Alternet CEO, praesens)

"It's an exciting opportunity to support Utiba in their Converging Payments initiative," said Jim Ackerson, senior vice president of i2c. "i2c's technology adds immediate and additional value to the robust mobile product suite that Utiba offers. Using i2c's one global platform, Utiba can quickly roll out companion card service across the Americas region."

About i2c

i2c, Inc. provides the infrastructure financial institutions, corporations, brands and governments need to launch and profitably manage payments and next-generation commerce products. Its global-ready product suite encompasses card-based, virtual and mobile payments, loyalty and back office solutions. Headquartered in Redwood City, California, i2c support clients on five continents from six sales and support offices worldwide.

Vielleicht deponiere ich hier eine Order. Wenn ich zum Zug komme ist es gut und wenn nicht auch. Aber halten würde ich die Dinger nur kurz.

Conclusion

The Company has positioned itself as the regional go to, if not preferred, provider of mobile financial services and solutions and is confident in the future demand for its products and services. However, there can be no assurance that sales will increase in the future. The Company is expected to remain dependent upon debt or equity financing unless revenues from operations grow significantly.

Funds Required For the Next 12 Months of Operations

Based on the staffing required to properly address market demand and service
customers the Company anticipates the following for monthly cash expenses in the
next 12 months (excluding the cost of any share issuances which may be made
pursuant to management agreements between the Company and senior management):

Wages/Salaries/Management Fees $ 375,000
Product Development/Intellectual Property $ 50,000
Travel $ 65,000
Advertising & Marketing $ 25,000
Professional Fees $ 25,000
General & Administrative $ 60,000
Total Monthly Expenses $ 600,000

Was ist wohl der monatliche Umsatz der letzten drei Monate?

Utiba to Provide Mobile Wallet Solution for Leading Bolivian Bank

Banco FIE, "Best Micro-Finance Institution in Latin America and the Caribbean," Selects Utiba's Hosted Mobile Financial Services Platform

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire - Oct 17, 2012) - Utiba, leading provider of mobile financial services solutions, announced today that Banco FIE, Bolivia's leading micro-finance institution, has selected Utiba to provide the platform for its mobile wallet. The mobile wallet has proven to be an excellent means of expanding banking services to the financially underserved communities which Banco FIE was created to serve.

Twenty-six years ago FIE was born as a non-governmental organization (NGO) to promote sustainable, economic development among low-income families, who had no access to formal sources of credit.

The NGO's successful performance encouraged its founders to create, in 1998, a private financial fund, regulated and authorized by the Bolivian Banking Superintendency to extend microcredit. Since then it has grown and in 2010 was transformed into a full-fledged bank with a continued focus on the microenterprise sector. Today FIE is one of Bolivia's largest banks in terms of geographic coverage, with one hundred eighty four offices nationwide, and in number of customers, with more than one hundred eighty thousand individual loan customers and five hundred thousand savings accounts. The Bank has long been recognized as a leading micro-finance institution in the region and was most recently awarded "Best Micro-Finance Institution in Latin America and the Caribbean" by the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB). The IADB has recognized the banks' excellence on three other occasions.

Banco FIE selected Utiba to provide a robust and scalable mobile financial services platform that will allow the bank to deploy a full range of mobile financial services, to be rolled out incrementally. The Utiba platform has been deployed in over 30 countries worldwide and principally by mobile network operators, financial institutions and third party payment service providers looking to provide financial services to the so called "unbanked," which are estimated to number 2.5 billion people worldwide.

Utiba CEO for the Americas Henryk Dabrowski spoke enthusiastically about the selection saying, "We are honored to have been selected by Banco FIE for this important strategy. The bank is known for establishing best practices and a leading use of technology in the micro-finance industry in Latin America. With their superior service capabilities and our robust and flexible hosted platform together we will deploy meaningful and impactful mobile financial services in Bolivia."

Elizabeth Nava, Banco FIE's General Manager, emphasized that, "The technology is key to be able to provide our services to unbanked populations, as it allows us to manage our clients' financial transactions at the lowest possible cost and greatest proximity to where they earn and spend money."

Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

Company History and Business

Alternet Systems, Inc. (the "Company"), was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 26, 2000, under the name North Pacific Capital Corp. In 2001 the Company changed its name to SchoolWeb Systems Inc. and then, in 2002, to Alternet Systems, Inc. On December 31, 2007 the Company executed a merger with TekVoice Communications, Inc. of Miami, Florida. Since then the Company has changed business focus and strategy to mobile financial services and mobile security. In 2011 TekVoice became inactive.

2009 - to present Focus on Mobile Financial Services and Security

Since late 2009 the Company has focused its investment and operational expertise on the mobile value added services markets of mobile financial transactions and security, through two new subsidiaries. These subsidiaries, Alternet Transaction Systems (dba Utiba Americas, which is 49% owned by Utiba Pte, Ltd) and International Mobile Security (IMS, which is 40% owned by General Services Holding LLC) were launched within the fiscal year 2010. The new lines of business and Company focus were intended to provide new revenue streams and profitability from the high growth segments of the mobile value added service market, namely mobile financial services and mobile security, Growth of both of these market segments is driven by the exponential adoption of mobile phones which in 2011 reached more than 70%, of the global population, with a total of 5 billion phones.

Competition

The Company competes in two distinct industries, mobile financial services and mobile security. Although the Company has unique features in its product offerings, and in mobile financial services is considered a pioneer and market leader, it competes with companies that are better financed. In 2010 and 2011 some market consolidation has taken place. Smaller competitors with market name recognition have been absorbed by larger organizations eager to capture market share and/or obtain technology and continued consolidation is expected over the next couple of years.

Research and Development

The Company spends a judicious amount in research and development expenditures. In mobile financial services, the Company primarily relies on its joint-venture partner's longstanding and continued research and development, and as appropriately purchases the necessary technology. In 2011, the Company purchased $1.5 million in intellectual property from its joint-venture partner. In mobile security the Company has its own proprietary technology and is in constant development to address client and market needs.

Employees

The company continued to increase staffing in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 in its operating subsidiaries. At September 30, 2012, total staff stood at 27 versus 17 the prior year. The Company continues to outsource contract employment as appropriate.

Nine months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to the nine months Ended September 30, 2011

Net Sales

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company had $452,891 in net sales compared to $128,794 for the corresponding period in 2011. Sales increased significantly in percentage terms (251%) but coming in well below the volume anticipated for the period as delays arose in closing qualified prospects of mobile commerce and mobile security license software by Alternet Transaction Systems, (DBA Utiba Americas) and International Mobile Security. Contract negotiations and/or project implementations are proceeding. Additionally discussions with major new clients have been initiated with the high likelihood of finalizing contracts in near term, most likely in the beginning of 2013.

Delays continue to reflect the long, complex, business to business sales cycle, the slow evolution of mobile money regulations in different countries, and delays not uncommon in the rollout of new technology. Additionally, in Utiba Americas, the transition from sales of software licenses to sale of Software as a Service (SaaS) continues apace with the adverse effect on the timing of revenue recognition. In the former's case, revenue reflects the one-time nature of the sale and is recognized at the time of the contract. SaaS revenue, on the other hand, is recognized over the term of the contract, typically being three to five years, based on the number of users and/or transactions. Management is cognizant of the timing issue and believes that the longer term and more reliable transactional revenue will generate significantly greater value to the Company. Moreover, the market for the Company's SaaS offering is expected to be significantly greater than straight license sales.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $176,591 in the nine months ending September 30, 2012 compared to $30,008 in the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, representing an increase in gross profit for the period of $146,583. As noted up above, such results were well below anticipated performance.

Operating Expenses

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company's operating expenses increased ($2,872,562 in 2012 versus $1,916,628 in prior year, an increase of $779,343, or 41%) when compared to the prior year. The increase was attributable to the Company's additional staffing and infrastructure growth necessary to properly service market opportunities and customer demand. This increase can best be seen in the year-over-year growth of the combined management and consulting and salary expenses ($2,063,777 in 2012 versus $1,304,029 in 2011, an increase of $759,748, or 58%). Most of this increase, when compared to the year-to-date prior year results, occurred in the third quarter (an increase of $504,862, equivalent to 126%, in third quarter of 2012 versus the third quarter of 2011). The increase in management and consulting and salary expense for the nine months accounts for 82% of the total $925,926 increase in operating expenses. Another 13% of the increase is accounted by in bank and finance charges, which reached $52,905in 2012 versus $10,087 the prior year.

Accounts payable totaled $1,129,472 and accounts receivable were $1,789,478 at September 30, 2012

Net Loss

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company had a net loss of $2,492,012 or $(0.03) per share, which was an increase of $649,217 when compared to the net loss for the corresponding prior year period of $1,842,795. The higher loss was primarily due to increased operating expenses, foreign exchange losses of $247,384 (an increase of $247,030, versus $354 in the prior year) primarily attributable to operations in Venezuela, and higher loss on debt settlement (an increase of $289,212). The latter reflects the accounting loss, recorded on the date of such events, based on fair market value (refer to Note 2).

Interest and other expenses

As shown in operating expenses, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company had bank charges and interest expense of $168,510, including the $85,198 of warrants (refer to Note 8c) compared with $44,718 for the corresponding period to September 30, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had current assets including cash on hand of $2,284,595 as at September 30, 2012 ($772,395 at September 30, 2011).

The Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,015,136 at September 30, 2012 ($977,784 at September 30, 2011). Management of the Company has determined that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and achieving increased sales of its operating subsidiaries, Alternet Transaction Systems (DBA Utiba Americas), and International Mobile Security (IMS).

Management can give no assurance that any increase in sales will occur in the future and if they do occur, may not be enough to cover the Company's operating expenses or any other costs. Should this be the case, we would be forced, unless sufficient working capital can be raised, to suspend operations and possibly liquidate the assets and wind up and dissolve the Company.

Auszug: Letter to Shareholder

Revenue Recognition and Accrual
As discussed in earlier shareholder communications, all of Alternet's revenues currently come from our mobile payments subsidiary, Utiba Americas, which has been changing its product mix from a traditional software license toward the sale of software as a service (SaaS), or from a one time revenue event to a monthly recurring revenue stream over a period of years. This shift is in keeping with industry trends towards the use of cloud computing and based upon an evaluation of customer needs. This shift also results in a delay in recognizing revenues and per accounting practice, accrual only of the revenues billed in a given period.

As a result, the value of Utiba Americas' multi-year agreements is not evident in our financial statements, as we are only able to bill for services when the project has been delivered, and monthly services fees are billed and booked for the period.

Das würde dann heissen, der gross Broken kommt per Abschluss 31.12.2012

Schaut mal auf die Zahl vom 30. Dezember 2011 (1,082 Mio)
Allerdings waren da die "cost of revenue" auch 1,024 Mio.
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=ALYI

Dies würde dann den Umsatzsprung, falls wieder im Verhältnis (Prozente) zu den Kosten identisch auf Stufe Nettogewinn/-Verlust, neutralisieren.

Bin immer noch an der Seitenlinie

EDas mit dem großen Brocken interpretiere ich anders.
Der Jahresabschluß ist ja nur eine Zusammenfassung der 4 Quartale.
Es geht vielmehr darum, um einen Vergleich zu bemühen, daß das Auto nicht für 90.000 Euro bar verkauft wurde und somit 90.000 als Erlös in der GuV stehen, sondern das lediglich 12 monatliche Leasingraten a 500 Euro = 6.000 Euro darin stehen werden.

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Letter to Shareholder Highlights Mobile Payments Subsidiary Operational Accomplishments and Regional Leadership

2012-11-14 16:30 ET - News Release

MIAMI, FL -- (Marketwire) -- 11/14/12

Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) today released a letter to shareholders from company CEO Henryk Dabrowski. The letter highlights the operational accomplishments and leadership position of its mobile payments subsidiary, Utiba Americas. The letter is included in its entirety below.

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

This letter is a follow up to our third quarter filing posted with the SEC on November 14th, which accurately depicts our financial performance for the period, but does not yet reflect important operational advances made during the first three quarters of the year. Specifically, in 2012, Alternet's mobile financial services subsidiary, Utiba Americas, has sold and deployed services in six countries of Latin America, making it the leading technology provider in the region with an estimated 35% market share of the deployments in these markets.

Regional Leadership
Since its launch in early 2010, Utiba Americas has rapidly assumed a leadership role in the emerging market of mobile payments of Latin America. The evolving regulatory environment in South and Central America has at times complicated the sale and launch of services. Despite this challenge, Utiba Americas has sold the Utiba Mobility platform to financial institutions and mobile network operators throughout the region and has deployed services in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras and Venezuela. Utiba's customers in these countries target a total of 120 million potential users.

Bolivia. As recently announced by Utiba, Bolivia's largest bank and regional leader in micro-finance, Banco FIE, has selected Utiba's Software as a Service (Saas) solution. This project is in implementation. Additionally, the Utiba platform has been deployed in the networks of the country's two largest providers of mobile communications, who have yet to launch services.

Colombia. Utiba's platform has been deployed and is in use by one of the country's leading mobile communications providers. The platform is also being used in a pilot distributing government benefits (welfare payments), orchestrated by one of the country's leading business to business (B2B) technology providers.

Ecuador. In 2011 Utiba Americas won the public bid for the Central Bank of Ecuador mobile payments project pilot. The Bank has yet to select a provider for the full scale deployment, though a public bid is expected in the coming quarter.

Guatemala. In late 2011, Utiba Americas' hosted Mobile Financial Service platform was selected by Guatemala's largest bank and one of Central America's largest mobile operators to launch and manage an innovative mobile payment service. Since its soft launch at the end of 2011, the service has been expanded to include payroll services, bill payments, government subsidies and mobile remittance. The service has
experienced a significant increase in adoption in the summer of 2012.

Honduras. In early 2013, a new mobile payment service provider will convert its current pilot, running on the hosted Utiba Americas platform, into a commercial service, offering third party bank branch services, business to business mobile collections, bill payment and domestic remittances.

Venezuela. In 2011, Utiba Americas sold and deployed its electronic recharge (top-up) platform for a Venezuelan mobile network operator, which will in 2013 expand the platform's services to include mobile commerce. Utiba Americas expects to launch additional projects in the Venezuelan market in coming months, which will include the use of a companion card tied to the mobile wallet, an important element of Utiba's Converging Payments Strategy.

Regional Deployments. Regional third party payments provider Movilway continues to deploy the Utiba electronic recharge (topup) platform throughout its distribution network in the Central and South American region. Movilway is currently in 12 countries with more than 80,000 retailers.

Utiba Americas expects to announce new regional contracts before the end of 2012 that will potentially expand its Mobile Financial Services platform to another 27 countries across the globe.

Partnerships
In the coming quarter, both Utiba and Utiba Americas will announce a number of strategic partnerships with companies with complementary product offerings. Pending agreements include an important regional channel partnership and a complementary suite of business analytics tools for microfinance, credit assessment, and mobile retail purchases.

Already announced in this year are agreements with i2c, Inc., Validsoft, and Spindle, which provide access to open loop payment processing, advanced mobile transaction authentication services, and a low cost acceptance network, respectively, and build upon Utiba's participation in the MasterCard Mobile Money Partnership Program announced in February.

On a separate note, one which augurs well for future success, Utiba Americas and Utiba continue to strengthen and broaden their relationship. The two companies are dedicated to making the Utiba brand and its products the preferred global solution. To that end, both entities leverage each other's capabilities and relationships and management are in constant contact to ensure seamless and timely product delivery and success.

Revenue Recognition and Accrual
As discussed in earlier shareholder communications, all of Alternet's revenues currently come from our mobile payments subsidiary, Utiba Americas, which has been changing its product mix from a traditional software license toward the sale of software as a service (SaaS), or from a one time revenue event to a monthly recurring revenue stream over a period of years. This shift is in keeping with industry trends towards the use of cloud computing and based upon an evaluation of customer needs. This shift also results in a delay in recognizing revenues and per accounting practice, accrual only of the revenues billed in a given period.

As a result, the value of Utiba Americas' multi-year agreements is not evident in our financial statements, as we are only able to bill for services when the project has been delivered, and monthly services fees are billed and booked for the period.

International Mobile Security (IMS) -- Cyber Security Subsidiary
IMS' strategic partnership and reseller agreement with UK based Delma Technologies has effectively increased the company's international sales force and given IMS access to Delma's products and resources. Based upon the early success of this relationship and complementary nature of the two companies' technologies and services, we have begun exploring additional joint efforts, to include software development and combined delivery and support efforts. We expect these efforts to permit a timelier closing of opportunities, which has caused a delay in reporting revenues at the subsidiary.

Conclusion
I am proud of the accomplishments of Alternet and its subsidiaries, in particular of the leadership position achieved by Utiba Americas. When we began marketing the Utiba Mobility platform in early 2010, we knew we had chosen to partner with the best technology provider, and we correctly anticipated that mobile financial services in Latin America would evolve differently than in Asia- Pacific and Africa, where the majority of the worlds' deployments had taken place previously. We quickly determined that the regulators of the region would favor financial institutions, and that financial institutions in turn would view a mobile payment platform differently than a mobile network operator, and would welcome the software as a service (SaaS) business model. This product development has been positively received in Latin America and elsewhere; in fact, we expect to announce global SaaS clients for Utiba Americas in the coming quarter.

This type of product innovation is an indication of the excellent business development and technical team we have assembled here in Miami. With this talent, we expect to lead the industry for years to come.

I would like to extend my thanks to Alternet's personnel and that of our subsidiaries for the hard work during this important year, and to our shareholders for their continued support.

Sincerely,

Henryk Dabrowski
Alternet CEO

Ich meinte was anderes!

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=ALYI

Ich meinte die Ergebisse des 4. Quartals 2011 mit Umsatz von 1,082 Mio

Jahresumsatz 2011 war 1.211 Mio.
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=ALYI&annual

Damit wollte ich sagen, dass jeweils im 4. Quartal der grosse Brocken kommt.

Wenn wir dieses Jahr im Dezember Quartal 2 bis 3 Millonen sehen, ist das für mich dann der Punkt, um mir die Sache genauer anzuschauen. Wenn da 5 Millonen stehen, dann könnte tatsächlich was werden in der Zukunft.

Wird aber noch einige Monate dauern bis die Zahlen rauskommen.

Hi Simon,

hast Recht.

As a result, the value of Utiba Americas' multi-year agreements is not evident in our financial statements, as we are only able to bill for services when the project has been delivered, and monthly services fees are billed and booked for the period.

Die period wäre dann das Geschäftsjahr und nicht das Quartal. Müsste eigentlich so sein.

Die Rate Total revenue zu den Gesamtbetriebskosten hat sich übrigens über die Quartale 2011 laufend und zum Schluss deutlich verbessert

Dann dürfte wirklich zum Ende des Geschäftsjahres noch einmal ein deutlicher Gewinn kommen .... wenn dann die Kosten weiter linear abfallen, sieht das gar nicht schlecht aus ....

Dauert nur bis zur Veröffentlichung

Vielleicht informativ, vielleicht lustig - also lustig irgendwie schon:

user jimrockford auf stockhouse:

"Yesterday I added to my position. Wanting to see what would happen if I did it, I put in a limit order at 18 cents - even though the market on was 14.5 bid by 15.6 offer. Well, I was given 5k at 15 cent and 20k at 15.6 cents. All my experience tells me that the traders / shorters leaving money on the table means they absolutely don't want this going up. Normally these guys would push their mothers off a cliff for 2 pennies."

[praesens]

Ein paar sehr interessante und nicht sofort von der Hand zu weisende psotings auf stockhouse:

1.)

" "Utiba Americas expects to announce new regional contracts before the end of 2012 that will potentially expand its Mobile Financial Services platform to another 27 countries across the globe."

So.......Utiba Americas has the Utiba license for North, South and Central America and the Caribbean. What has happened that would allow them to go global?

Buckle up, people.
Jim "


2.)

"Looking forward to the analysis - once hydrated you will have to spell it out in very simple terms for Mr. Wow!

If I add this “one more thing” from the L to S:

On a separate note, one which augurs well for future success, Utiba Americas and Utiba continue to strengthen and broaden their relationship. The two companies are dedicated to making the Utiba brand and its products the preferred global solution. To that end, both entities leverage each other's capabilities and relationships and management are in constant contact to ensure seamless and timely product delivery and success.

To your “one more thing” from the L to S:

"Utiba Americas expects to announce new regional contracts before the end of 2012 that will potentially expand its Mobile Financial Services platform to another 27 countries across the globe."

And try to answer your skill testing question:

So.......Utiba Americas has the Utiba license for North, South and Central America and the Caribbean. What has happened that would allow them to go global?

The answer I get is that:
1 + 1 = 1

3.)

"Fellow Pump Dog, "DKM," that was where the thread of my analysis was going. Definitely each of these entities has assets that the other needs - ie. Utiba needs sales and Utiba Americas needs the Utiba license/patent. And the Letter makes that abundantly clear.

For all those who love Storage Wars (about the greatest programming since...well...ever!) - that's the "Wow Factor!"

Pump Dog Jim"



4.)

"Might even go as far as 1 + 1 + 1 = 1

There was that move to make some stock available recently...just a small (wink) amount...might come in handy if you needed to do some consolidation."

Die Verluste zuletzt waren schon gravierend ...

Jim Rockford on Stockhouse geht von Shorten aus

A few points:


- I didn't give any numbers re a financing. Uncle Oats must have eaten a tequila worm - or just flat out lied again.



- IdiotRepublic, the Cisneros' did their financings at 15 cents with a 25 cent warrant. If the ALYI were to finance, I don't think we'd be seeing anything less than that. And where I see the company at this stage, if they were to go to the well, it wouldn't be for much.



- IdiotRepublic asks whether a NR coming? The volume says yes. The average volume over the last three months was 96k and we've now had four straight days above 300k in volume.



- Of the 329,890 shares traded yesterday, 100k of those were short. If you add that to the crosses obviously done back and forth between MM's / shorts, it looks pretty blatant that they desperately want people to sell.



- Ask yourself again why at the CITI symposium they only invited people from three other companies. A top level guy from Vodaphone, a top level guy from Facebook, and Justin Ho, CEO and Founder of Utiba.



Re the above, reread the Letter to Shareholders from the President of Alternet. In it he says, "Utiba Americas expects to announce new regional contracts before the end of 2012 that will potentially expand its Mobile Financial Services platform to another 27 countries across the globe."

I am more sure than ever that a run has started.

Obwohl ich solche "Erklärungen" eigentlich überhaupt nicht mag - da sie meistens schlichtweg falsch sind und nur Ausreden darstellen - bin ich aber hier der Meinung, daß tatsächlich mit dem Kurs gespielt wird.

Es bleibt uns nichts Anderes übrig als substantielle news abzuwarten die hoffentlich bis Mitte/Ende Mai (ungefähres Datum der Veröffentlichung des Jahreabschlusses 2012) erfolgt sind.

Ich sehe Alternet als eine relativ sichere Wette. Sofern Wetten überhaupt irgendwie sicher sein können ...

I have been tracking these numbers since early November (for my own interest) and have posted a weekly summarized table a couple of times. On December 31st the volume took a good jump and has stayed over 100,000/day since – so the last 8 trading days have been interesting on a volume basis alone.

It is interesting to note that the average on Jan 2 & 3 was moving upward both days and only changed when the shorts got involved again on Jan 4th and have stayed involved every day since.

I recommend reading the November 10th blog by John Lux (http://otcshortreport.com/blog/john-lux/a-short-seller-manip…) and after reading the blog look at two things - the L2 data (http://www.stockhouse.com/companies/level2/alyi) and the above table again.

I found the numbers even more interesting after reading the blog! (when a buy looks like a sell)

"Mobile Banking to Reach 65% of the Country Off the Banking Map
January 17, 2013 by Andean Air Mail & PERUVIAN TIMES

Six months from now, people all over Peru will be able to begin paying their bodega bills or buying their neighbor’s cow by mobile phone.

President Ollanta Humala enacted a law Wednesday authorizing the introduction of mobile banking, aimed at helping millions of Peruvians who have poor or no access to banks or ATMs to safely pay and be paid without the need of physical cash.

The system is expected to be implemented in July.

Humala said the law was made “to help the most poor, who have difficult access to banks.” Government figures show that 65% of districts nationwide have no local access to financial services, and only 28% of the adult population uses banks. In contrast, 95% of the districts nationwide have telephone coverage, and there are more than 32 million mobile phones currently in use.

The service is to be offered by banks, savings and loans institutions, and new companies that specialize in the system, who will register as electronic money issuing companies, EEDE.

Using a pin number, phone owners can either link to their savings or checking account or purchase money to deposit to their phone number. They will be able to pay bills, make retail purchases, or have access to cash at any business using the system. The limit per transaction is to be the equivalent of one tax unit (UIT), currently S/. 3,700.

According to Scotiabank’s innovation channels manager in Lima, Miguel Arce, small retailers are the segment that will be quickest to use this electronic payment system, including small shops and remittance businesses. There is also a vast ‘network’ of people who are paid in cash, including gardeners, seamstresses, even taxi drivers.

“Approximately $15 billion moves in the retail business per year. About six percent of these transactions are done through banks, which means that $10 billion moves in cash through bodegas, hardware stores and others, all of which use cell phones,” Arce told La Republica daily when the bill was put forth in Congress.

President Humala said the government is planning to use the system to distribute assistance in the social programs. “A beneficiary on the Juntos program or Pension 65 and who lives in Surcubamba, Huancavelica, where there are no commercial banks, will no longer have to travel for hours to collect their pension or stipend,” the President said.

Humala also said the law should be a wake-up call to private banking, “which has huge profits but does not go into the interior of the country, where there is a great lack of services.”

“We’re talking about an instrument that will allow financial inclusion and social inclusion. You should know that 65 percent of districts have no financial services, and yet 95 percent of them have telephone coverage.”

Congress now has 90 days to draw up the regulations to the law in order to implement the law."

Alternet Systems, Inc.'s (ALYI) Subsidiary, Utiba Americas, Announces Strategic Partnership With CREDENCIAL ARGENTINA


http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/utiba-announces-stra…

Utiba Announces Strategic Partnership With CREDENCIAL ARGENTINA



"February 21, 2013 09:00 ET
Alternet Systems, Inc.'s (ALYI) Subsidiary, Utiba Americas, Announces Strategic Partnership With CREDENCIAL ARGENTINA

Utiba Americas Continues to Enhance Mobile Financial Services Offering by Adding Credencial Argentina Financial Service Solutions to Converging Payments Strategy

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwire - Feb 21, 2013) - Alternet Systems, Inc.'s (OTCQB: ALYI) subsidiary, Utiba Americas, a leading provider of mobile financial services solutions, and Credencial Argentina, a financial payment solutions company, have partnered to provide enhanced mobile financial services in the Americas region. The partnership with Credencial Argentina gives Utiba Americas (UA) customers the ability to issue a card, both physical and virtual, that expands the use and acceptance of UA's mobile wallet at ATM machines, retail points of sale (POS) and for online purchases. These card products can be debit, credit and prepaid.

UA's customers -- financial institutions, mobile network operators and payment service providers -- will benefit from increased end user adoption and usage, increased transaction revenues and an enhanced user experience. In the Americas region, UA's customers are located in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras, and Peru, with additional countries in deployment. UA expects to have broad regional coverage in the Americas by the end of 2013, serving a potential market of over 600 million mobile and internet users and a population of over 900 million people.

Converging Payments
The relationship with Credencial Argentina is another integral piece of UA's Converging Payments Strategy which was launched earlier 2012 with the announcement of the company's participation in MasterCard's Mobile Money Partnership. UA's strategy calls for the expansion of mobile financial services beyond a basic tool of financial inclusion for the "unbanked," a population estimated by the World Bank at 2.5 billion people worldwide. Partnerships with companies like MasterCard, Validsoft, and, now Credencial Argentina, permit UA to extend the acceptance of the mobile wallet and create more sophisticated mobile financial services, both of which increase mobile wallet adoption and transaction rates.

"Issuing a companion card linked to the mobile wallet expands the payment network to include existing points of sale (POS), ATMs and other outlets. This helps UA's customers to provide their end users with an existing payment ecosystem and acceptance network while building out their own agent networks. UA's relationship with Credencial Argentina is designed to give customers the shortest possible time-to-revenue and growth," noted Alternet Systems, Inc.'s CEO Henryk Dabrowski.

"This alliance will allow us to offer full mobile and web solutions to different clients. In our view financial institutions, governments, and retailers are looking for mobile solutions complemented by companion cards in order to cover all of the possibilities of access to goods and services by customers. We are willing to contribute with our technology and experience for the success of this relationship," said Carlos Gorleri, President and General Director of Credencial Argentina.

Caribbean security firms see niche market

Caribbean security industry operators are seeing business growth in response to both prosperity of an emerging wealthy class and a rise in crime risks.

Published: Feb. 20, 2013 at 4:18 PM

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Feb. 20 (UPI) -- Caribbean security industry operators are seeing business growth in response to both prosperity of an emerging wealthy class and a rise in crime risks to rich individuals and business organizations.

Vigorous armed pursuit of organized crime in Latin America, in particular in Colombia and Mexico, has driven criminal drug gangs and syndicates toward potential rich pickings in the Caribbean. Governments have responded by building up security services, often with British or U.S. help.

A recent surge in air and cross-border travel has driven demand for security industry services.

Security industry operators say they expect the market to shrink if security industry firms from North America and Britain descend on countries with a rising middle class and new security concerns.

In one of the earliest explorations of the market, the British Security Industry Association said British business could benefit from doing business in the Caribbean, though the region is small and made up of individual islands.

"The security sector is growing rapidly as these countries move toward the greater use of technology," association member Gerard Garcia said. "Establishing business through local partners in the region can prove beneficial."

Caribbean security industry operators say they want to exploit a niche market they see growing rapidly. Personal bodyguard services have mushroomed across the Caribbean region and the number of security service providers for corporation clients is growing.

Agricultural scientist Herman Adams said the Caribbean could also exploit its exclusive local commodities, such as extra-hot peppers, to offer new law enforcement devices to the region and the rest of the world.

He listed a number of agricultural products that could be employed to produce nonlethal weapons for crowd control and overcoming assailants, the Trinidad Guardian reported. Other agents want lethal force to be met with equal measure.

"We should be industrializing the hottest of our peppers ... and churn out industrial products like pepper sprays," Adams, researcher at the Caribbean Agricultural Research and Development Institute said.

Pepper grenades were also considered.

Adams said adoption of agricultural and herbal weapons such as the Trinidad Scorpion Butch T pepper could open new business opportunities for the Caribbean. The Trinidad Scorpion Butch T is recognized as the hottest pepper on Earth.

"We can beat them hands-down when it comes to competitiveness," Adams said of the local pepper variety and current producers of law-enforcement pepper spray in China and the United States.

Dwight Williams of Heller Security Services said limiting response to non-lethal weapons could "enhance the work" of the security industry and police.

"It is clearly a milder form of force that can be very effective in mitigating what can become very serious situations," Williams told the Guardian.

Security analysts say the spread of mobile phones in the region has made law-enforcement both easier and more difficult. Criminals can communicate, often with impunity and without fear of detection by the region's under-resourced crime prevention agencies.

Mobile security services are seeing new expansion in South America and the Caribbean with the entry of more businesses in the region.

Usage of the mobile security services has expanded with the adoption of the latest innovations in mobile security technologies both by international law enforcement agencies and other security services.

Alternet Systems, Inc. said it reached an exclusive master distribution agreement between its subsidiary International Mobile Security and U.K. technology and systems integration company Delma MSS.

The deal covers the resale of Delma's mobile security solutions in the Western Hemisphere.

IMS will be the exclusive master distributor of Delma's products and services in the Americas.

Alternet Systems, Inc. has headquarters in Miami and has worked in secure mobile commerce and communications in the Americas and Caribbean. Alternet has regional units in 17 countries across the region.

Meanwhile, Fitch said the merger of American Airlines with US Airways isn't likely to adversely affect Latin American and Caribbean airports. The merger created concern that many security jobs at regional airports may be at risk.

Fitch said overall current passenger traffic in the region continues to grow steadily.

MasterCard tries to zap PayPal with own-brand mobe wallet

MasterPass eyes lead in pay-by-mobe race

By Tony Smith • Get more from this author

Posted in Mobile, 27th February 2013 12:17 GMT

Free whitepaper – Cern and FuseSource Case Study

Walk into any of Apple’s 400 shops, pick up an accessory, boxed software or any one of the other items the Mac maker’s stylish emporia have out on shelves, and, if you have an Apple ID and an iPhone, you can buy the products you want without having to interact with one of the firm’s happy-clappy minions.

The system works with an app that taps into each shop’s Wi-Fi network to link a phone camera scan of an item’s barcode with Apple’s pricing database and your Apple account details. Key in your Apple ID and password to confirm the purchase and you’re ready to go.





You even get a virtual receipt you can show to overzealous store detectives as proof of purchase.

Avoiding paying shoppers being collared as shoplifters aside, it’s a system MasterCard would very much like to see made more broadly available, and this week it announced MasterPass, a system it hopes will soon allow users to pay for any item, in any shop, by phone.

MasterCard comes late to e-payments. PayPal, the doyen of digital payment systems, was founded 15 years ago, in 1998, building its business on the back of internet users’ fondness for bidding in sales hosted by eBay. The online auction site liked PayPal so much it bought the company, in 2002.

Like Apple’s Apple ID system, PayPal hides a user’s credit card details away behind a single log-in system, making sure the retailer - online or off - gets its money without having to view or store the customer’s numbers. So do similar services from Google, WorldPay and others.
Give the credit card a hiding

That’s very convenient for the buyer, but less appealing to the likes of MasterCard and Visa, and the banks whose cards tap into these firms’ payment clearing systems, all of whose business depends on taking a small cut on each purchase. Tucking away the card at the end of the customer interaction chain subverts the brand recognition that MasterCard and Visa strive to build in order to promote usage and increase their revenue from all those transaction fees.

Existing online payment schemes were devised to allow users to buy goods online and pay for items through an intermediary who they trust to protect their financial details more than they do the vendor, the better to preserve the security of their financial information.

That’s much less of an issue for high street purchases. In real shops, customers are happy to hand over the card they might want to obscure when shopping online. The change now taking place, thanks to initiatives like Apple’s payment app and similar utitiles from other shops and suppliers, is consumers’ growing desire to pay not with a card but their phone.





The Apple Store app uses barcode scans and Apple’s own Apple ID system, originally created to allow fans to pay for music downloaded from the iTunes store but since rolled out across all of Apple’s e-commerce outlets. Pizza Express, a restaurant chain, offers a similar app: your bill has a numeric code which can be tapped into the app and then paid for through PayPal.

With a smartphone in your pocket and a secure payment app installed on it, you might not even need to carry cards at all, calling into question the livelihood of the likes of MasterCard and Visa. If you don’t need your credit card to buy things, only a PayPal account, why not link it direct to your bank account or PayPal’s own credit facilities and cut out the go-between card altogether? PayPal and Apple don’t yet offer credit, but all they need to do so is a suitable licence. In Europe, PayPal has one.

Phone-y payments

Apple’s system is likely to remain limited to Apple’s shops and online stores, though there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be expanded to support other retailers. Its Passbook app, introduced as a place to keep virtual tickets and vouchers, is a logical place to start extending the service. PayPal has already started, albeit in a small way. Its own app, PayPal InStore, allows gents to charge the cost of their new Thomas Pink shirts straight to their account. Ladies buying glad-rags from one of Aurora Fashion’s Oasis, Coast, Warehouse and Karen Millen outlets can do the same. In the US, it numbers Home Depot among its retail partners. It’s talking to other retailers too, the company says.





PayPal’s presence is small, but growing and, perhaps more importantly, has the brand recognition to become a big player in the mobile payments business. A recent survey of US consumers carried out by comScore, a pollster, found that 48 per cent of smartphone owning respondents who have used e-payment technology have done so using PayPal. Google, the nearest of PayPal’s rivals, on the table was used by a mere eight per cent of respondents.

Google’s Wallet app is geared more toward NFC-based tap-to-pay systems, an area in which MasterCard itself has already dabbled, with its PayPass system and a wallet app of its own. Number three on the comScore list, PayPass was used by only three per cent of respondents.

As Apple, PayPal and others have shown, paying for goods with a phone doesn’t necessarily require near-field wireless communications, and MasterCard makes it clear that MasterPass, which is a kind of second-generation PayPass Wallet, can present on-screen QR-style codes that vendors’ own systems can read and accept as payment. Apple’s Passbook app uses QR codes for voucher payments; PayPal’s uses barcodes.
Better latté than never

It’s a method that is proving popular. Earlier this month, Starbucks, a coffee seller, said its mobile payments system now attracts 2.1 million transactions a week - about five per cent of all its sales transactions in US stores - as beverage buyers present their QR-style code-showing Android and iOS apps instead of loose change.

MasterPass is set to launch in the UK in the summer, with Argos and Boots already saying they will accept MasterPass payments. It says it expects all vendors who current accept MasterCard payments to be accepting MasterPass too by 2016. Banks Santander and Citi have given the service their approval, and are likely to be among the first UK card issuers to support it. MasterCard’s list of MasterPass-backing banks doesn’t yet include the UK’s biggest high street retail banks, though punters are keener on retailer-issued credit cards these days. According to Datamonitor, a market watcher, 41 per cent of card holders on average report that they use their retailer-branded credit card “all of the time”; the equivalent figure for bank-branded cards is just 20 per cent.





Visa is also preparing a pay-by-phone service, called V.me, though its UK launch has been delayed from a planned autumn 2012 roll-out to the summer of 2013. Like MasterPass, V.me will be provided to users through card issuers’ own wallet apps and should go beyond NFC, which it tackled with its Paywave initiative.

MasterCard says its wallet is “open” to allow users to include credit, debit and store cards affiliated to other networks, but it remains to be seen whether this will work in practice - will they suppport it? So far it has only mentioned Maestro, the debit card system it owns. A real wallet can contain cards from a variety of issuers tied to various networks. To do this with e-payment services requires the rigid definition and application of standards.

All of which perhaps favours firms like Apple, PayPal and Google who have no need to protect and present merchant and card issuer brands the way MasterCard and Visa do. For these services, the payment card is merely a means to an end not their raison d’etre. ®

Nach wie vor gewaltiges Potential - das aber auch einmal zu Tage treten muß ... das wird es meiner Überzeugung nach auch, aber es ist definitiv Geduld gefragt !

Gruß, praesens

[praesens]

Im Folgenden ein paar Auszüge aus dem Jahresabschluß.
Alternet ist, was seine "Infrastruktur" angeht, sehr gut aufgestellt.
Woran es m.E. noch hapert ist ganz einfach die Marktdurchdringung des mobile banking bei den Endkunden in Süd-/Mittelamerika.
Hier ist man in Afrika schon sehr viel weiter. Allerdings wurde dort das mobile banking auch schon viel früher implementiert. Südamerika ist da ein Nachzügler.
Hier liegt m.E. der Grund für die schleppende Umsatzentwicklung. Man ist noch im "early stage" der Entwicklung der Infrastruktur des mobile banking. Endkundenakzeptanz kommt dann später.
Ich mache mir diesbezüglich keine Sorgen. Außer eben, daß es noch dauern kann ...


"Since launching in 2010, the Company has implemented mobile financial service solutions in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Revenue will come from organic growth of its existing operations, primarily from its hosted service, and the Company's robust sales pipeline with many qualified opportunities throughout the region. The Company also benefits from its name recognition and reputation, being one of the leading names in mobile financial services."

"The Company has been successful in capturing a leading market share in regional deployments and is widely recognized as having among the broadest and most robust product offerings. In 2012 the Company was awarded a multi country license sale agreement with Digicel Group, with an initial launch in Haiti, as well as the sale of a license to Astra Holdings, S.A. a Central America mobile payment service provider, that initially launched in Honduras and will expand in 5 Central America countries. It also successfully launched in January 2013, the electronic top up platform for Corporación Digitel S.A. a mobile network operator in Venezuela."

"The SaaS product offering has successfully garnered key clients in Guatemala, Bolivia, México and Latin America. The Company is currently working in several other projects with a regional player with a multi country reach, and is continuing to receive widespread interest as it is currently negotiating several SaaS proposals with regional banks and mobile payment service providers."

"In 2012 the company entered into strategic alliances with complimentary players in the industry. The strategic partnership with Spindle, Inc. , a United States based mobile payments processor and technology developers allows ATS to enter this market and leverages Spindle's merchant acquisition suite into the existing Utiba mobile commerce offering. This partnership will expand as the companies are seeking additional technological and commercial integration. It also signed an MOU with i2C, Inc., a payments processor based in Redwood City, California to leverage their payment processing, card management and prepaid platform into a Utiba's converging payment offering. This initiative follows the MasterCard global partnership signed by Utiba Pte. Ltd. in October 2011, and the announcements made in 2012 on our expansion into the physical payments markets, as described in our Converging Payments offering."

"ATS also continues to actively work with MasterCard operations in Latin America, developing a joint offering leveraging the brands strength and Utiba's market presence. Management expects several of these offers to close in 2013 in several key markets, specifically launching payments services to the unbanked markets in Latin America and the Caribbean."

"Net Sales
For the year ending December 31, 2012, the Company had net sales of $1,229,674 versus $1,210,766, for the prior year, effectively flat. While the Company signed two license sales contracts in the fourth quarter of 2012, only one sale was recorded in the year. ATS has experienced continued challenges in closing other large complex projects, due to their scope and size. The Company accrues these sales on a performance basis, so additional revenues will be recorded as they are deemed delivered."

"Net Loss
For the year ending December 31, 2012, the Company had a net loss of $4,703,334 or ($0.04) per share and total comprehensive loss of $3,263,407 or ($0.04) per share, an increase of 52% and 34%, respectively, when compared to corresponding year December 31, 2011 which had a net loss of $3,095,376 or $(0.04) per share and a total comprehensive loss of $2,444,395 or ($0.04) per share. The increased loss is primarily attributable to higher Other Items, consisting of the aforementioned interest expense ($457,283), foreign exchange loss ($404,736) and loss on debt settlement ($579,375), up $1,252,293 from the prior year. The foreign exchange loss is attributable to the devaluation of the Venezuelan Bolivar."


Wenn eine Firma dieser "Größen"ordnung einen foreign exchange loss von über 400.000 $ hinnehmen muß, erscheint mir das grob fahrlässig.


"Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $5,751 cash in the bank and accounts receivable of $1,249,447. At December 31, 2012, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $3,165,793. The Company is currently pursuing financing, and has engaged an investment bank to raise additional capital to fund ongoing operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be negatively affected if it is unsuccessful.
Accounts payable were $1,457,054 at December 31, 2012 compared to accounts payable of $1,778,876 at December 31, 2011. Accounts receivable decreased to $1,249,447 for 2012 versus $2,215,586 for 2011. Both items reflect the timing impact of sales closed at the end of the year.
As of December 31, 2012, the Company holds an accounts receivable of $789,565 (VEF 6,674,709) with a related company that has been outstanding for longer than one year. Due to the relationship with this Company, management is certain the funds will be collected."

April 23, 2013 09:00 ET
Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Letter to Shareholders Outlining Business Opportunities for 2013 and 2012 Year in Review

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Apr 23, 2013) - Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) ("Alternet" or the "Company"), an investment holding company focused on the complimentary, high-growth markets of mobile financial services and cyber-security, today released a letter to shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Henryk Dabrowski. The letter discussing the business opportunities for 2013 and 2012 year in review for the Company and its subsidiary, Utiba Americas, a leading mobile financial services provider in the Americas, is included in its entirety below.


Dear Fellow Shareholders,

2012 was a great year for Alternet and our growing subsidiary, Utiba Americas. The year was marked by multiple accretive wins, allowing us to gain further share in the growing mobile financial industry. These 'wins' include several projects that have been outlined in the Company's previous filings with the Securities & Exchange Commission, as well as projects seen in our 2012 financials. Alternet, through our subsidiary Utiba Americas, has closed more than seven projects over the course of the year ended December 31, 2012, including Digicel Group, Inc., Astra Holdings, S.A., Banco Fie S.A., and four others that the company is not in a position to disclose as of this letter. The Company also successfully launched the balance recharge systems for Digitel in Venezuela, and for Movilway, including a mobile commerce demo, and multiple system upgrades for several other clients.

Alternet and our subsidiaries understand that proper communication, both with investors, with clients, and their respective target markets is essential. In this effort, we continuously request to our clients and partners to allow us to announce key commercial events such as entering into contracts, launching of commercial services, and other relevant information. However, due to the competitive nature and the critical impact of these projects to their business and strategy, most of our clients are reluctant to share such information. As a result, we are unable to keep investors full informed of the progress and certain advances we're making. While we respect the privacy of our clients, we also remain committed to communicating and increasing transparency with our shareholders and as such, we will continue to push for greater disclosure moving forward.

Regional Leadership
Alternet's subsidiary, Utiba Americas, has greatly expanded its regional market presence in South and Central America throughout the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company has sold and implemented the Utiba Mobility platform to over 62 financial institutions and mobile network operators throughout the region and has deployed services in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico and Venezuela. Currently, the Company is working on seven more implementations in various Latin American countries and recently, received a formal letter of intent and is now in the final stages of contract negotiations, to provide our suite of mobile financial services applications to a multi-country and multi-bank venture. Once finalized, this will be a monumental agreement for the Company as it will allow us to effectively expand into an additional 225 million subscriber market, dramatically broadening our reach and revenues.

Moreover, we recently disclosed the signing of a supply and professional services agreement with the largest mobile network operator in the Caribbean and the Pacific regions. The initial agreement starts with the implementation of the platform for their services in Haiti. The accepted proposal covers all of the group's properties, and it's expected to be launched over the course of the next three years.

On the product offering side, Utiba Americas entered into several agreements and strategic commercial relationships to expand our offering of products and services beyond mobile financial services, and into converging payments, staying in line with Utiba's (joint card and mobile wallet offering) strategy. These include our relationships with i2c, Inc. and Credencial Argentina, Inc., as well as working closely with MasterCard's Latin America operations, as part of the Utiba global partnership with the franchise.

Our expansion into Mexico with the incorporation of Utiba Mexico, a local subsidiary of Utiba Americas, is another growth effort that has been seeing great progress. We have been working with our local partner in Mexico for over 14 months, and recently, we were selected as the chosen technology platform for a payment processing company. We anticipate launching Utiba Mexico services in the country by the end of the year and will disclose additional details as they become available.

Given our growth trajectory on the product side and recent strategic agreements and relationships entered into, we expect to continue our expansion in this space over the next 5 years, and have discussed internally the potential broadening of our product and services offering via strategic mergers or acquisitions down the road. These strategic mergers and/or acquisitions may include technology companies both in the US and Latin America.

Revenue Recognition
As discussed in earlier shareholder communications, all of Alternet's revenues currently come from our mobile payments subsidiary Utiba Americas. Our product and service mix comes from the sale of applications as "software as a service" (SaaS). This translates from a one-time revenue event to a monthly recurring revenue stream over a period of years. Utiba Americas is focused in shifting its core revenues to the SaaS model, in keeping with industry trends towards the use of cloud computing and based on a per mobile wallet, per transaction or a combination.

This causes a significant delay in the recognition of revenues. Utiba Americas, and in turn, Alternet Systems, have a lag when booking closed sales versus actual revenue accrual in our financials.

Financing of Operations and Loans
Alternet, through subsidiary, Utiba Americas, has started to generate modest income, which has been used to cover operating expenses and business costs, thus reducing our reliance on additional investment capital to continue executing on our growth and expansion initiatives. Until recently, most of the cash requirements have been procured through loans made by shareholders and certain members of management.

Conclusion
In closing, we are pleased with the progress that both Alternet and Utiba Americas have made in 2012. With the first quarter of 2013 already behind us, the management team of both companies remains quite enthusiastic about the current and future opportunities seen in the mobile financial services space. Particularly, the recent selection of Utiba's Mobility platform by a large multi-country and multi-bank venture is very exciting. Assuming the initiative involves the rolling out of our suite of services into at least 14 countries, we expect to quickly gain market presence and increase our profitability.

As we continue to execute in 2013, I look forward to sharing more news of contract signings and project launches as I am able to. These revenue producing events will undoubtedly improve our operational cash flows, decrease our dependence on external financing, and further increase the value of our investments to our shareholders. We believe strongly in the opportunity and vision of enabling secure mobile commerce and communications and hope you will continue to join us as we make it reality.

Sincerely,

Henryk Dabrowski
Alternet CEO

tja, da scheiden sich immer wieder die Geister, ob Konkurrenz schädlich ist oder das Geschäft beflügelt.

Ich denke Alternet hat in Süd- und Mittelamerika und der Karibik den Vorteil des "first movers", zudem mit Utiba im Rücken, und, kann man den Verlautbarungen des Unternehmens glauben schenken, bereits weitreichende Beziehungen geknüpft.
Ich sehe das Thema von daher gelassen.

Net Sales

For the quarter ending March 31, 2013, the Company had net sales of $436,976 versus $59,285, an increase of $377,691, primarily reflecting the sale of a license expansion


Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

The Company has cost of sales of $316,698 and a gross profit of $120,278 for the quarter ending March 31, 2013 as compared to cost of sales of $37,967 and a gross profit of $21,318 for the quarter ending March 31, 2012. The increase in the cost of sales is due to the commensurate higher revenue for the period when compared to the prior year. Timing of expense recognition reflecting delays in the receipt invoices and supporting documentation from foreign vendors also impacts these items.


Net Loss

For the quarter ending March 31, 2013, the Company had a net and comprehensive loss of $503,785 or ($0.01) per share, a decrease of 51% when compared to the corresponding period of March 31, 2012 which had a net loss of $1,027,410 or $(0.01) per share. The lower loss is primarily attributable to lower Other Items, consisting of debt settlement losses which are down $528,174, and lower Operating expenses of $94,298. Last year’s debt settlement loss reflected the accounting loss, not a cash outlay, attributable to the assigned value of shares received by a lender on the settlement of a convertible note. The settlement coincided with a spike in the share price.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $39,730 cash in the bank and accounts receivable of $1,115,314. At March 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $3,743,476. The Company is currently pursuing financing, and has engaged an investment bank to raise additional capital to fund ongoing operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be negatively affected if it is unsuccessful.

Accounts payable were $1,416,143 at March 31, 2013 compared to accounts payable of $1,457,054 at December 31, 2012. Accounts receivable decreased to $1,144,564 for March 2013 versus $1,249,447 at year ended 2012.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company holds an accounts receivable of $789,565 (VEF 6,674,709) with a related company that has been outstanding for longer than one year. Due to the relationship with this Company, management is certain the funds will be collected

Digicel’s TchoTcho Mobile Migrates to Utiba’s Mobility Platform; Represents the First Completed Implementation of Digicel’s Multi-Country Migration

August 7th 2013 - Digicel’s TchoTcho Mobile Migrates to Utiba’s Mobility Platform; Represents the First Completed Implementation of Digicel’s Multi-Country Migration

MIAMI, FL - August 6th, 2013 - Utiba, a leading provider of mobile financial services solutions, announced today that TchoTcho Mobile, the mobile money platform of Haiti’s leading telephone company Digicel, has successfully migrated to Utiba’s Mobility platform. TchoTcho Mobile is the most popular mobile money service in Haiti, allowing subscribers a quick, simple, and secure way to manage their money from their phone.

The migration of TchoTcho Mobile to Utiba Mobility will allow standard mobile financial transactional services, such as person to person and person to business payments; cash withdrawal and deposit via agents and bank; telephone recharge; government subsidies disbursement; as well as bill payments, lottery payments and international remittances. Additionally, the Company’s platform allows for multi-bank integration and the ability to incorporate new features as needed. The migration represents the first implementation of Digicel’s mobile commerce agreement with Utiba, with potential to expand to 22 of Digicel’s operations in the Caribbean and Pacific over the next 2 years.

Renowned for delivering the best value, service and network to customers and agents in 36 markets worldwide, Utiba’s Mobility platform was selected by Digicel in 2012 with the strategic objective to create a new and improved base system to be utilized across select operations. Richard Matotek, CEO of Utiba, commented, “On behalf of the entire team, we would like to congratulate Digicel on the successful migration and re-launch of their TchoTcho Mobile Financial Services brand now utilizing Utiba’s Mobility platform. Our platform provides innovative solutions needed to service their growing customer and agent base and will assist them in further penetrating Haiti’s unbanked populace and Digicel’s global customer base.”

Mr. Matotek continued, “Looking ahead, we remain highly confident in our ability to facilitate the completion of Digicel’s multi-country launch of our Mobility product. With new features planned for Caribbean and Pacific operations, it is our belief that once completed Digicel’s robust service offering will be one of the strongest in the industry”

Mr. Matotek’s sentiments were echoed by David Sharpe, General Manager of TchoTcho Mobile in Haiti. “Mobile Money represents a new frontier in Haiti that has the potential to exponentially increase the ease and efficacy of purchases, transfers, and overall banking functions. Utiba is a clear leader in the industry, providing a strong foundation to TchoTcho’s and Digicel’s service delivery that will allow customers to have the best possible experience when it comes to Mobile Money.

(EDGAR Online via COMTEX) -- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2013, that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report, and our consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors".

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Overview

Alternet Systems Inc. competes in two distinct industries, mobile financial services and mobile security. In mobile financial services, the Company has unique features in its product offerings and is considered a global pioneer and market leader, consistently ranked by independent surveys amongst the top three in the world. The Company's technology has been developed and improved over numerous years and provides clients with a complete suite of applications and functionality that addresses all current market applications and usage. The Company is geographically focused on the entire Western Hemisphere (North, Central and South America and the Caribbean), and is the market leader in terms of deployments.

Mobile Financial Services

In 2010, the Company launched its mobile financial and mobile commerce suite of services, which it offers in equity partnership with the leading mobile financial services software developer, Utiba. Utiba Americas enjoys exclusive rights to the Utiba software platform for the Americas region, sold as a software license, or as a hosted service, also known as Software as a Service (SaaS).

Demand for our mobile financial transaction services is driven by the widespread adoption of mobile phone service and the existence of large segments of the global population which possess a mobile phone, but do not possess a bank account. The global mobile commerce industry is in its early growth and adoption stages and several successful initiatives have been launched worldwide by our competitors. We believe that as wireless usage expands, the demand for our services will grow.

Since launching in 2010, the Company has implemented mobile financial service solutions in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Revenue will come from organic growth of its existing operations, primarily from its hosted service, and the Company's robust sales pipeline with many qualified opportunities throughout the region. The Company also benefits from its name recognition and reputation, being one of the leading names in mobile financial services.

Page | 25

Sales and marketing is accomplished through the Company's existing sales staff, who contact potential clients directly, and through agent sales, channel partners, trade shows, and industry associations. Marketing materials such as brochures, web sites, and technical specifications are continuously updated with an increased emphasis being placed on its offerings for specific vertical industries, specifically the telecom, financial, government and utilities sectors.

The Company has been successful in capturing a leading market share in regional deployments and is widely recognized as having among the broadest and most robust product offerings. In 2012 the Company was awarded a multi country license sale agreement with Digicel Group, with an initial launch in Haiti, as well as the sale of a license to Astra Holdings, S.A. a Central America mobile payment service provider, that initially launched in Honduras and will expand in 5 Central American countries. It also successfully launched in January 2013, the electronic top up platform for Corporación Digitel S.A. a mobile network operator in Venezuela.

The SaaS product offering has successfully garnered key clients in Guatemala, Bolivia, Mexico and Latin America. The Company is currently working in several other projects with a regional player with a multi country reach, and is continuing to receive widespread interest as it is currently negotiating several SaaS proposals with regional banks and mobile payment service providers.

In 2012 the company entered into strategic alliances with complimentary players in the industry. The strategic partnership with Spindle, Inc., a United States based mobile payments processor and technology developers allows ATS to enter this market and leverages Spindle's merchant acquisition suite into the existing Utiba mobile commerce offering. This partnership will expand as the companies are seeking additional technological and commercial integration. It also signed an MOU with i2C, Inc., a payments processor based in Redwood City, California to leverage their payment processing, card management and prepaid platform into a Utiba's converging payment offering. This initiative follows the MasterCard global partnership signed by Utiba Pte. Ltd. in October 2011, and the announcements made in 2012 on our expansion into the physical payments markets, as described in our Converging Payments offering.

ATS also continues to actively work with MasterCard operations in Latin America, developing a joint offering leveraging the brands strength and Utiba's market presence. Management expects several of these offers to close in 2013 in several key markets, specifically launching payments services to the unbanked markets in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Projects continue to take significant time and effort to close due to the complexity, the required participation of multiple parties, differing levels of expertise and experience amongst parties and, at times, shifting regulatory conditions.

As a result sales are below expectations. SaaS revenue, the Company's preferred product offering and pricing structure, is rapidly getting traction, while license sales have experienced a deceleration. ATS is actively engaged in final discussions and contract negotiations, with the largest clients in the market and expects to sign major projects in 2013.

The Company also expects to pursue potential opportunities to grow through mergers and acquisitions. Several opportunities have been identified and the Company has initiated initial discovery processes.

Digital and Mobile Security Software and Services

International Mobile Security (IMS) finalized the acquisition of proprietary technology in early 2011 and was positioned to offer software and security products in the global market segments of law enforcement, corporate, and consumer sales. Sales efforts have been conducted in house and through value added resellers. Drivers of demand include smart phones and the newly arrived mobile tablet computers.

IMS has entered into an agreement to develop opportunities with Delma MSS Ltd. ("Delma"), a company based in the United Kingdom developing location and tracking technologies. As part of the agreement, Delma will develop and enhance some of the IMS products, with the intent to develop joint business opportunities and products. The relationship with Delma will allow IMS to expand its sales reach into the Middle East and Asian markets.

The Company is also exploring reviewing ancillary businesses within the Mobile Financial Transaction Services space, such as Mobile Remittances, Consumer Analytics, Mobile Advertising Monetization and integration of its Mobile Commerce suit to Social Media opportunities.

Results of Operations:

The Company's results, on a consolidated basis, reflect its own results consolidated with its subsidiaries. For the remainder of this part, the term "Company" refers to both the Company and its wholly owned and two majority owned subsidiaries, International Mobile Security, Inc. ("IMS") and Alternet Transactions Systems, Inc. ("ATS") doing business as Utiba Americas. Alternet has a controlling interest in both subsidiaries.

Net Sales

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had net sales of $519,582 versus $217,015 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $302,567. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had net sales of $956,558 versus $276,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $680,258. The increase in sales is primarily resulting from the completion of several contracts.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

The Company has cost of sales of $335,133 and a gross profit of $184,449 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to cost of sales of $76,065 and a gross profit of $140,950 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The Company also has cost of sales of $651,831 and a gross profit of $304,727 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to cost of sales of $114,032 and a gross profit of $162,268 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in the cost of sales is due to the commensurate higher revenue for the period when compared to the prior period. Timing of expense recognition reflecting delays in the receipt invoices and supporting documentation from foreign vendors also impacts these items.

Interest and Other Expenses

The Company's interest expense was $293,691 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $106,894 in the previous period and $416,147 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $121,533 in the previous period due to the increase in loans outstanding during the period, reflecting greater relative use of debt financing versus stock financing.

Net Loss

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had a net and comprehensive loss of $1,388,791 or ($0.02) per share, an increase of 88% when compared to the corresponding period of June 30, 2012 which had a net loss of $740,268 or $(0.01) per share. The higher loss is primarily attributable to increased operating expenses of $1,029,613.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had a net and comprehensive loss of $1,892,576 or ($0.02) per share, an increase of 7% when compared to the corresponding period of June 30, 2012 which had a net loss of $1,768,028 or $(0.02) per share.

Page | 29

The debt settlement loss included in the six months ended June 30, 2012 reflected the accounting loss, not a cash outlay, attributable to the assigned value of shares received by a lender on the settlement of a convertible note. The settlement coincided with a spike in the share price.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had $26,513 cash in the bank and accounts receivable of $495,045 as compared to $5,751 and $1,249,447 respectively as at December 31, 2012. Accounts payable were $1,638,906 at June 30, 2013 as compared to accounts payable of $1,457,054 at December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $5,287,539 as compared to $3,165,793 as at December 31, 2012. The Company is currently pursuing financing, and has engaged an investment bank to raise additional capital to fund ongoing operations. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern will be negatively affected if it is unsuccessful.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company held an accounts receivable of $789,565 (VEF 6,674,709) with a related company that has been outstanding for longer than one year. Due to the relationship with this Company, management is confident that the funds will be collected; however, due to the uncertainty of obtaining foreign currency, management has reserved the total balance.

Plan of Operation

Over the next 12 months, the Company will continue selling mobile financial services, in the form of software licenses and, increasingly more given market demand, as a service, commonly referred to as Software as a Services (SaaS), through its subsidiary Alternet Transaction Systems (dba Utiba Americas). The Company is in advanced negotiations with various clients to roll out single market, multi-market and regional mobile financial services, primarily under the SaaS product offering. SaaS transactions are multi-year in nature and are priced based on active wallets, transactions or a combination thereof. The Company is also in discussions for the sale of additional licenses and/or expansions.

As for International Mobile Security (IMS), provider of mobile security solutions, management is currently reviewing restructuring options. While the market for IMS's products, primarily the government, law enforcement and, to a lesser degree, corporate segments, appears to be large and growing, IMS' product offering needs further refinement and development. Similarly, significantly more management time will be required to address the current challenges as well as additional resources.

Conclusion

The Company has positioned itself as the regional go-to, if not preferred, provider of mobile financial services and solutions and is confident in the future demand for its products and services. However, there can be no assurance that sales will increase in the future. The Company is expected to remain dependent upon debt or equity financing unless revenues from operations grow significantly.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in United States dollars. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. Our fiscal year-end is December 31.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. Our Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our Company may differ materially and adversely from our Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts: customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. Past due balances over 90 days and other higher risk amounts are reviewed individually for collectability. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. Based on management's assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings or customer deposits depending on whether the corresponding income has been recognized by the Company, and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable

Page | 31

collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's functional currency and its reporting currency is the United States Dollar. Foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity (deficit), whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations. Refer to the Risk Management section for further discussions on foreign exchange exposure.

Long-Lived Assets Including Other Acquired Intellectual Property

Management monitors the recoverability of long-lived assets and intangibles based on estimates using factors such as current market value, future asset utilization, and future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from its investment or use of the related assets. The Company's policy is to record any impairment loss in the period when it is determined that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Any impairment loss is calculated as the excess of the carrying value over estimated realizable value. The Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life are not amortized but are subject to impairment tests at each reporting date. The Company assesses the impairment of intangible assets on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value is less than its carrying value. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, the intangible asset is considered impaired and the second step of the test is performed to determine the amount of impairment loss, if any. The Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to indefinite lived intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenues from the sale of licenses of software, implementation services, support services, and telecommunication services. Revenues are recognized when title transfers or services are rendered, as follows:

a) Revenue from the sale of licenses is recognized when the title of the license transfers to the customer.

b) Revenue from implementation services performed is recognized upon completion of the service.

c) Revenue from support services is recognized as earned.

d) Revenue from telecommunications and hosted services are recognized when billed, which occurs in the month the services are provided.

Page | 32

The Company invoices 100% of the implementation services and requires customers to pay a non-refundable deposit prior to any services being performed. The Company recognizes the customer deposit as unearned revenue until either completion of the implementation or upon the contract being cancelled at which time the revenue is recognized. The uncollected portion of the implementation invoice is recorded when collection has occurred, implementation services have been completed, or the contract has been cancelled.

The Company invoices support services at the beginning of the term and recognizes the revenue over the term of the agreement.

Deferred Income

The Company recognizes revenues as earned. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as a liability under ''Deferred income.''

Alternet Systems, Inc. : (ALYI) Issues Letter to Shareholders Discussing Its Second Quarter 2013 Financial and Operational Results

08/21/2013 | 10:53am US/Eastern

MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Aug 21, 2013) - Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: ALYI) ("Alternet" or the "Company"), an investment holding Company focused on the complementary, high-growth markets of mobile financial services and cyber-security, releases a letter to shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Henryk Dabrowski.

The letter discusses the Company's second quarter filing for the period ending June 30, 2013 as posted with the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) on August 14th 2013 and gives an overview of the financial and operational highlights for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 for the Company and its subsidiary, Utiba Americas -- a leading mobile financial services provider in the Americas.

The CEO's letter is included in its entirety below:

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

The second quarter and first six months of the 2013 have been quite productive, characterized by growing revenues and the expansion of our mobile financial services solutions within the Caribbean and Latin America. Our quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2013 is currently on file with the SEC, where our other material developments can be found. Alternet, through our subsidiary Utiba Americas, has continued executing successfully on customer contracts throughout the second quarter and have signed several multi-country, multiyear contracts during the first six months of the year. These projects are in the process of being implemented, which takes on average between six to twelve months for completion. As a result, revenues stemming from these projects are only reflected once the project has been successfully delivered and accepted by the client.

Given our lag in revenue recognition, Alternet and our subsidiaries understand that consistent communication, to and with the investment community, are keys to operating successfully and achieving a proper valuation in the public markets. For this purpose, we are embarking on an active public and investor relations campaign designed to bolster communication and achieve greater public and investor awareness. Campaign initiatives include bringing on a public relations firm, revamping our web site and company information kit, as well as participating in industry conferences and events. As a shareholder and / or an interested party, you should expect to see more active correspondence with the Company and more information on a regular basis.

As stated in the Company's previous Letter to Shareholders, due to the competitive nature and the critical impact of our projects on our customers' business and market strategy, many of them are reluctant to share critical information regarding the projects with the public. It is important to note that we are continuously requesting customers to allow us to disclose this information, and will disclose it only when we receive their authorization.

Revenue Recognition and Gross Profit

Alternet's revenues currently come from our mobile payments subsidiary Utiba Americas. Our product and service mix comes from the sale of applications as "software as a service" (SaaS) which translates from a one-time revenue event to monthly recurring revenue stream over a period of years. The last six months have been decisive for Alternet and its subsidiaries. Several large projects have been signed and are in the process of implementation. As mentioned, implementation can take an average of between six to 12 months, and the resulting revenues are only reflected once the project has been successfully delivered. This results in a lag when booking closed sales versus actual revenue accrual in our financials. Despite this accounting complexity, the Company remains focused on shifting its core revenues to the SaaS model, and keeping with industry trends towards the use of the cloud to host software services, as well as based on a per mobile wallet, per transaction or a combination.

In the second quarter 2013, the Company recognized revenues of $519,582, a year-over-year increase of $302,567 or 139% and quarter-over-quarter increase of insert $82,606 or 19%. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company achieved revenue of $956,558, a year-over-year increase of $680,258 or 246%. Increases in revenue stemmed mostly from the completion of several contracts during the period including Digicel Group, Astra Holdings, Corporación Digitel, Viva Bolivia, Banco Fie, Claro Guatemala, among others.

The Company incurred a gross profit of $184,449 in the second quarter of 2013, a year-over-year increase of $43,499 or 31% and quarter-over-quarter increase of $64,171 or 53%. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2013 reached $304,727, up 87% year-over-year. Gross margin came in at 35% for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Financing of Operations and Loans
Alternet, through subsidiary, Utiba Americas, is generating income, which has been used to cover operating expenses and business costs, thus reducing our reliance on additional investment capital to continue executing on our growth and expansion initiatives. Additional cash requirements thus far for 2013 have been non-dilutive, and made through loans made by shareholders and certain members of management as indicated in our SEC filings.

Market Presence
Alternet's subsidiary, Utiba Americas, has greatly expanded its regional market presence in South and Central America as well as the Caribbean, having sold and implemented the Utiba Mobility platform to over 62 financial institutions and mobile network operators throughout the region. To date, we have deployed services in Bolivia, Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Venezuela and most recently, Haiti.

The recent launch of our mobile money and transactional services in Haiti's Digicel "TchoTcho" Mobile is the first implementation of our multi-country migration of leading mobile network provider, Digicel, and their 22 operations in the Caribbean and Pacific regions, to Utiba's Mobility platform. The migration is expected to progress over the next three years and once completed it will be the most robust mobile money service offering in the market. Armed with our expanded mobile money services, Digicel will be better equipped to penetrate the unbanked populace within and outside of their growing global customer base, and in turn, we will gain access to their growing subscriber market.

Moving forward, we are concentrating on broadening our presence in the Latin American market, one that has proved to be quite lucrative and relatively untapped, and expanding via additional strategic partnerships and in such cases, large ventures, with selected leading financial institutions as well as mobile network operators. By mid 2014, we expect to be in 14 markets in Latin America, including Brazil.

Mobile Security - International Mobile Security
Our mobile and digital security subsidiary, International Mobile Security (IMS), has continued to pursue several opportunities in partnership with Delma, our United Kingdom based commercial partner who specializes in the development and supply of security, tracking and communications solutions. Most recently, the companies entered into a software development and intellectual property improvement agreement together.

We expect IMS's first sales opportunity to materialize at the end of 2013, with a significant revenue project yet to be announced. The project is currently undergoing testing by customer and if accepted, we anticipate being awarded the contract in the current quarter.

It is our belief that the mobile security industry is in its infancy. With the global proliferation of mobile devices and heightened security measures needing to be taken across the globe, growth of and innovation within this industry is imminent. IMS is at the forefront of this opportunity and as such, we at Alternet are committed to placing renewed efforts and resources in the promotion of IMS going forward.

Conclusion
Management is motivated with the results but not satisfied. My team and I continue to strive and are committed to leading the company and its subsidiaries to financial success and increasing shareholder value and returns.

Already mid-way into the third quarter, we remain confident that 2013 will be a year of success, characterized by improvements in our top and bottom line, as well as further expansion of our brand in the mobile financial services solutions space. Fueled by large multi-country and multi-bank ventures with key customers, our market position moving forward is strong. We expect to gain even further traction as we embark on strategic partnerships focused on layering in complementary, value-added synergistic services to our currently robust offering.

I would like to close this letter thanking our loyal shareholders, our investors and our staff for the unwavering support and loyalty. We look forward to sharing our successes and further increasing shareholder value in the time ahead. The results are near and our progress has been successful.

Sincerely,

Henryk Dabrowski

Auch positiv, daß ein IMS Vertrag vermutlich noch in diesem Quartal zustande kommt - die Sparte hatte ich persönlich schon abgeschrieben.

Wir sind wieder da, wo die Aktie vor drei Jahren schon mal stand!

Fundamental mehr wert als aktuell hat sie meiner Meinung nach nicht.
Der Kurs lebt alleine von der Zukunftsfantasie.

Ich hoffe echt, ihr zwei habt hier nur Spielgeld investiert.

Die letzen beiden Tage mit Verhältnismässig viel Volumen (123K und 93K,
jedoch auf Dollar Basis keine 10K), sankt die Aktie von 7 bis 8 cents auf 3 bis 4 runter.

Bin hie gemäss meinem Posting Nr. 82 vom 31.3.2012 rausgegangen und seither beobachtet an der Seitenlinie.
http://www.wallstreet-online.de/diskussion/1172036-81-90/alt…


Seit meinem Ausstieg hat die Aktie im Tief fast 90% verloren.

Die MK beträgt jetzt noch knapp 4 Mio. Dollar.

Frage mich was der Grund für den starken Rückgang der letzten Tage ist?
Gemäss den news müsste man etwas anderes erwarten.

[praesens]

Stellt sich die Frage wo fängt "Spielgeld" an ...
Mein Durchschnitts-EK liegt jedenfalls bei 0,105 $.

Der Kurs ist mir momentan noch relativ schnuppe.
Da wird gezogen und gedrückt, vielleicht auch shorter am Werk, und bevor keine substantiellen Umsätze und damit verbundener Gewinn vermeldet wird, wird
sich daran auch nichts ändern.
Das aktuelle Niveau ist für mich eher Nachkauf-Niveau.

M.E. steht Alternet fundamental mit seinen Partnern und Verträgen gut da.
Eine sich im Aktienkurs auch spiegelnde positive Entwicklung wird sicher noch ihre Zeit brauchen - okay.

"Haiti's mobile redemption
August 15, 2013: 5:00 AM ET

Digital wallet is helping lift the island nation out of poverty while generating impressive profits for wireless carrier Digicel Group.

By Erik Heinrich





FORTUNE -- David Sharpe doesn't mind doing business in Haiti despite its reputation for being one of the world's most dangerous countries. Back in the early 1990s, the ex-U.S. Marine was in Somalia during Black Hawk Down and the former Yugoslavia during some of the bloodiest fighting in Bosnia.

But now Sharpe, a 40-year-old executive with wireless provider Digicel Haiti, faces perhaps the toughest challenge of his life. As the country picks itself up from the 2010 earthquake that killed more than 250,000 people, he needs to convince its unbanked masses, many of whom are illiterate, to embrace the digital age with mobile financial services more sophisticated and advanced than anything available in North America or Europe.

How is the mission going so far? "We had a bumpy start, but Haitians love their mobile phones," says Sharpe, sitting in his hilltop office overlooking the late-morning haze blanketing the capital Port-au-Prince. "They may not buy a meal, but they will top up their Digicel account," adds Sharpe, whose crisp white shirt hangs loosely over his lanky frame.

Digicel has found the pulse of a market most wireless carriers would not touch with a 20-foot barge pole, accumulating 700,000 customers for its TchoTcho mobile wallet and a subscriber base of 4.5 million since 2006. "When we first arrived, only 5% of Haitians owned a mobile phone, today that number is more like 75%," says Sharpe, whose company is a subsidiary of the $2.5-billion Digicel Group, owned by Irish billionaire Denis O'Brien.

MORE: When will car dealers get with the web?

Digicel's achievements in Haiti are commendable, but not exactly surprising given the parent company specializes in doing business in some of the most difficult and hazardous corners of the world. It has operations in more than 30 countries across the Caribbean, Latin America, and the South Pacific, including El Salvador and Papua New Guinea.

Even so, few would have guessed that the poorest country of the Western Hemisphere -- a nation of 10 million that for decades has toiled under an oppressive combination of natural disasters, dictators, and military coups -- could end up being so lucrative for Digicel. The Haitian operation made an impressive $86-million profit on revenue of $439 million in 2012.

"Digicel has proven itself to be a strong and efficient operator with high margins," says industry analyst Jacob Steinfeld with J.P. Morgan in New York. "They are usually at the forefront in terms of trends but will not pursue technologies or equipment that don't make sense financially."

The future looks even brighter, not least because Sharpe, head of the TchoTcho team, wants to more than double his customer base to 2 million by March 2014. The key to achieving that goal is an aggressive build-out of his agent network, mainly gas stations and grocery stores, which TchoTcho subscribers can use like bank machines.

"We're a tremendous catalyst for change," says Sharpe, whose boyish face belies a super-competitive streak. "Before we came along, Haitians had all this money in their pockets and under their mattresses. They lived day to day. Now they're saving for the first time."

Many observers, including the Washington-based U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), view Digicel's mobile wallet as a game-changer that is dramatically accelerating economic development and helping transform a country that desperately needs some good news.

"The fact that a mobile wallet was launched at all in Haiti is a huge success," says Steve Olive, deputy director of USAID's Port-au-Prince office, who helped jumpstart the initiative along with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. "It's making financial products available to people who were previously outside the banking system."

MORE: On airlines, DOJ finally gets a backbone

The latest version of TchoTcho -- which means "pocket money" in the local Creole dialect -- was launched in 2011 in the wake of the devastation surrounding the 7.0-magnitude earthquake.

Domestic money transfers, payroll, and basic banking services were first to go live. It immediately became apparent that giving Haitians the ability to instantly transfer money from one mobile phone to another -- anywhere in the country without a banking intermediary -- was a killer app. Whereas before, people had to endure long bank lines and pay for expensive wire transfers to send cash from the city to family or a friend in the country, Haitians could now remit up to $25 with a few simple text commands for just 15 cents. (To boost adoption rates, Digicel allows customers to transfer up to $2.50 three times a day for free.)

Domestic transfers have become a huge hit for Digicel Haiti, with $960 million being sent and received each year on the TchoTcho platform.

The service has since expanded to include mobile bill-payment and point-of-sale purchases and will soon allow customers to receive international remittances on their handsets, bypassing middlemen such as Western Union.

But it's the ability to distribute humanitarian aid that is perhaps TchoTcho's biggest accomplishment of the last 12 months because it is has already changed tens of thousands of lives. The USAID's Food for Peace and the UN's CARMEN program for housing repair are among the early adopters, along with the Haitian government's Ti Manman Cheri, which pays a monthly stipend to poor women who keep their children in school.

In all cases recipients are provided with a mobile phone and a TchoTcho account so they can automatically receive monthly e-vouchers that they redeem for groceries or other supplies, circumventing distribution centers, long lines, and risk of theft or misappropriation. "E-vouchers keep things much tighter because you can track how aid is spent," says Karl O'Conner, a Dubliner in charge of special projects. "If you distribute cash, there are no guarantees."

Will TchoTcho, Digicel Group's most advanced mobile-wallet solution to date, be rolled out in other countries where it does business? And could it become the model for the automated distribution of social and humanitarian aid worldwide? "Haiti is an incubator," says Sharpe. "What we learn here will be used in other countries."

Says J.P. Morgan's Steinfeld: "Once they introduce a successful service, Digicel Group will usually try to replicate it in other markets."

In the meantime Sharpe, whose Haitian wife Paula last month gave birth to son Quentin, has to figure out how to expand his network of agent retailers by a factor of at least three. That's what it will take if TchoTcho is to become as ubiquitous as the orange Digicel umbrellas that protect company reps selling airtime from the hot Port-au-Prince sun. Is that too big a mountain to climb in nine short months in a country with few sure bets?

"Digicel is a marketing machine," says Sharpe. "We always find a way to get where we need to be.""

Hi ihr Zwei,

hehehe ... hätte fast identisch wie Praesens geantwortet. ... was ist Spielgeld ... ?
Bei solchen Werten muss ich einen Totalverlust einplanen, insofern ist es ein kontrolliertes kleineres Investment. Entweder es klappt oder halt nicht ... Ich liege noch etwas höher als Praesens vom Einstiegskurs, werde hier aber erst einmal abwarten, da demnächst vermutlich wenig passiert und ich das Geld lieber woanders investiere, wo mehr Dynamik herrscht.
Wobei ich mir klar einen schnelleren Anstieg erhofft hatte. Die grundsätzliche Positionierung ist ok. Ich hoffe, dass man der Ankündigung folgt und einer guten und sachlichen PR vermehrt nachkommt.

Poste auch noch gleich was zu Digicel ... aber im zweiten Post, wegen der Übersichtlichkeit

... mit Digicel hat man einen Global Player aus dem karibischen / südamerikanischen Raum gewinnen können. Ich hoffe, dass da noch mehr entsteht. Insgesamt ist Digicel in 31 Ländern operativ.

Bin mal gespannt auf den angekündigten Deal im Mobile Security Bereich ... vielleicht geht auch hier noch etwas mehr im behördlichen Bereich ....

Ein wie immer sehr interessantes posting des dd-diggers DKM auf stockhouse:


"Ay, caramba! México you say!

Hey “CoolHandLuke2011”,

I checked my notes and this is the closest item to “new” that I am aware of and I don’t believe it has been discussed anywhere else in relation to Utiba/Alternet.

***

First have a look back at the following excerpt from the Letter to Shareholders dated April 23, 2013:

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Letter to Shareholders Outlining Business Opportunities for 2013 and 2012 Year in Review - Apr 23, 2013

..........Our expansion into Mexico with the incorporation of Utiba Mexico, a local subsidiary of Utiba Americas, is another growth effort that has been seeing great progress. (1) We have been working with our local partner in Mexico for over 14 months, and recently, (2) we were selected as the chosen technology platform for a payment processing company. We anticipate launching Utiba Mexico services in the country by the end of the year and will disclose additional details as they become available.

(1) Did you know we had a local partner in Mexico? What does “local partner” mean in this context?

(2) I believe that the payment processing company involved is a long established company of significant size – but that is for another post! It is not the subject of this post!

***

Go to the Utiba “Experience Map” and “hover” over Mexico and up pops “Ezuza”. I have looked at this map so many times that the map and name Ezuza is sadly etched in my brain. I say sadly because the map is so out of date – along with a lot of the other Alternet / Utiba / UtibaAmericas website pages!

Ezuza has been on the Utiba map for a number of years as Utiba did work with the company in the early part of 2011, probably done during the period Feb. – Sept.at the time a management consultant (O.H.R.) was doing work for Ezuza.

It appears that Ezuza was anticipating a launch at the end of 2011 as per the following from a blog by Hannes van Rensburg’s dated October 11, 2011: “Monique has been working on launching eZuza in Mexico for some time now and it seems as if this is imminent”.

Hannes is the founder of Fundamo which eventually was purchased by Visa for $110 M in June 2011.

Monique is Monique Maddy, Founder and CEO of Ezuza.

***

Now go to the MMU Deployment Tracker and locate Mexico on the map. It currently indicates 4 deployments in Mexico. Click on the “4” and details of the deployments will be displayed. Follow the “>” to display the details about Ezuza. The details show that it was launched in October 2013 and there is a link to the Ezuza website.

The Asset Purchase Agreement

Effective on October 15, 2013, the Company, Utiba Pte Ltd (“Utiba”), Alternet Transaction Systems Inc. ( “ATS”) and Utiba Guatemala S.A.

Consummation of the transactions set out in the APA are conditions upon the approval of the shareholders of the Company.

Utiba is a software developer and professional services provider of a mobile financial services software for the telecommunications, banking and financial services industry.

The amount of $300,000 of the Cash Purchase Price will be held back to cover certain claims that may be made under the indemnification provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement.


2.
The entry by the Company into a non-compete covenant in favor of Utiba and its affiliates in the mobile payment, top up and mobile financial services industry for a period of 36 months, in consideration for a payment in cash on closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Closing”) of $2,200,000;

Tja, der Fortschritt beim UMsatzwachstum läßt sehr zu wünschen übrig ...:

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1126003/0001062993130…

"Net Sales

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had net sales of $125,571 versus $176,591 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $51,020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had net sales of $1,082,129 versus $452,891 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $629,238. The increase in sales is primarily resulting from the completion of several contracts.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

The Company has cost of sales of $159,165 and a gross margin of ($33,594) for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to cost of sales of $162,268 and a gross margin of $14,323 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The Company also has cost of sales of $810,996 and a gross margin of $271,133 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to cost of sales of $276,300 and a gross margin of $176,591 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in the cost of sales is due to the commensurate higher revenue for the period when compared to the prior period. Timing of expense recognition reflecting delays in the receipt invoices and supporting documentation from foreign vendors also impacts these items.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

The operating and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 totaled $1,119,265 as compared to $1,088,250 for the similar prior period. The table below details the major changes in administrative expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.

The operating and administrative expenses for the nine months end September 30, 2013 totaled $3,862,789 as compared to $2,699,774 for the similar prior period. The table below details the major changes in administrative expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the corresponding nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Interest and Other Expenses

The Company’s interest expense was $109,874 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $51,517 in the previous period and $342,476 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $173,051 in the previous period due to the increase in loans outstanding during the period, reflecting greater relative use of debt financing versus stock financing.

Net Loss

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had a net and comprehensive loss of $852,348 or ($0.01) per share, an increase of 14.54% when compared to the corresponding period of September 30, 2012 which had a net loss of $744,170 or $(0.01) per share. The higher loss is primarily attributable to increased operating expenses.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had a net and comprehensive loss of $2,744,924 or ($0.03) per share, an increase of 9.26% when compared to the corresponding period of September 30, 2012 which had a net loss of $2,512,199 or $(0.03) per share. The higher loss is primarily attributable to increased operating expenses.

The debt settlement loss included in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflected the accounting loss, not a cash outlay, attributable to the assigned value of shares received by a lender on the settlement of a convertible note. The settlement coincided with a spike in the share price.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $42,803 cash in the bank and accounts receivable of $362,843 as compared to $5,751 and $1,249,447 respectively as at December 31, 2012. Accounts payable were $1,692,946 at September 30, 2013 as compared to accounts payable of $1,457,054 at December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $6,042,316 as compared to $3,165,793 as at December 31, 2012. The Company is currently pursuing financing, and has engaged an investment bank to raise additional capital to fund ongoing operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be negatively affected if it is unsuccessful.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company held an accounts receivable of $789,565 (VEF 6,674,709) with a related company that has been outstanding for longer than one year. Due to the relationship with this Company, management is confident that the funds will be collected; however, due to the uncertainty of obtaining foreign currency, management has reserved the total balance."

Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Issues Letter to Shareholders Discussing the Proposed Transaction With Utiba Pte. Ltd and the Future of the Company
CEO Comments on the Company Future Growth and the Merits of the Transaction to the Shareholders

MIAMI, FL, Feb 05, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- Alternet Systems, Inc. (otcqb:ALYI) ("Alternet" or the "Company"), today delivered a shareholders letter from its Chief Executive Officer, Henryk Dabrowski.

The letter discusses the company's transition into digital currency, mobile remittance, and micro payment markets enabled by a licensing agreement and asset sale transaction with Utiba Pte. Ltd. ("Utiba"). It also addresses investors' concerns related to the transaction and provides a roadmap for future of Alternet Systems, Inc.

The CEO'S letter is included in its entirety below:

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

Alternet Systems, Inc. is monetizing its investment in Utiba Americas and transitioning into what we call "The Internet of Money, or the Alternet"; and as we see it, the convergence of Digital Currency, Mobile Security and Mobile Financial Services.

Alternet's current business has centered in the Mobile Financial Services space, through its subsidiary Alternet Transaction Systems, Inc. ("Utiba Americas"). Over a period of 3 years, the Company has been focusing in selling the Utiba software, primarily to Mobile Network Operators, Financial Institutions and Payment Service Providers. The strategy has been centered in expanding our market presence in the Americas market. The Utiba application is used by almost 50% of all implementations in Latin America and the Caribbean. This success has allowed the Management team to identify several new areas of opportunity. We expect to unveil our digital roadmap over the next several months. This initiative will lead to the creation of new business and partnerships in 2014 and beyond.

Why is the Sale of Assets of Utiba Americas a good opportunity?

The sale of the assets of Utiba Americas (the "Transaction"), allows us to successfully exit the Mobile Financial Services software sector, both in a timely fashion and profitably. It benefits the Company by reducing its risks resulting from significant adverse changes in market conditions, arising from increased and more robust competition, greater sophistication requiring broader product offering, more resources and additional capital investment.

The Transaction provides Alternet with a strong 150% return on its investment over 3 years based on the total capital investment to date of $2 million. It provides Alternet with cash to invest in exciting high growth opportunities, such as Digital Currency services, as well as continue to invest in the Mobile Commerce and Mobile Remittance segments. Mobile and Digital Security are key sectors for the Company and we expect to continue to grow by adding new services and products.

The Transaction also provides an opportunity for the Company to reassert its core vision and mission while expanding its scope. Internally referred to as Alternet 2.0 Global Strategy, the initiative that began in November 2013 is expected to be launched immediately after closing the Transaction. Management and the Board of Directors are very excited with the opportunities presented to date and eager to implement its strategy.

Management analysis of the Sale of Assets of Utiba Americas

Per our latest Proxy filing describing the Transaction, we have received a proposal to sell the assets and transfer selected liabilities of Utiba Americas to our joint-venture partner Utiba. The proposal derives from the acquisition, in October 2013, of Utiba by Amdocs, Inc., a global technology player.

The Transaction's terms have been negotiated and agreed, and the Board of Directors is submitting it to shareholders for approval. We expect to hold several conferences, post information on our web site and maintain our Investor Relations line available, allowing shareholders to submit questions on the Transaction in order to facilitate an informed decision. The Company has also engaged the Proxy Solicitation services of Morrow and Co.

The Board of Directors and Management decision was based on the following four key factors:

First, the opportunity to timely exercise our Tag Along rights established in the Utiba Americas shareholder agreement with Utiba. This allowed Utiba Americas to receive a valuation similar or equal to Utiba and its subsidiaries and provided Alternet pari passu treatment with the Utiba founders and shareholders.

Second, Management has evaluated the potential impact of the sale of Utiba to Amdocs. From the inception of Utiba Americas, Alternet's Management has had a direct and open relationship with the founders and shareholders of Utiba. This relationship further strengthened over the years with daily interaction and greater familiarity, resulting in increased trust and respect. In part, the relationship was based on the parties' shared dynamic entrepreneurial spirit and buttressed by similarly-held visions and goals. This relationship facilitated our ability to make decisions in a swift and effective manner. The sale of Utiba will undoubtedly change the dynamics of our relationship, given the significantly different stage of development of the companies, Alternet and Amdocs, resources, organizational structures and goals. It is expected that these factors will adversely affect Alternet and place the company at a disadvantage, potentially resulting in significant dilution.

Third, a strategic exit based on market fundamentals currently affecting the Mobile Financial Services software sector. The mobile financial core software industry has dramatically evolved over the last 12 months with the entrance of significantly larger and diversified competitors, such as Visa, MasterCard and Ericsson. This has adversely affected our previous competitive advantage, market position and impacted our ability to effectively address opportunities, promote the company and compete financially. Management and the Board of Directors believe that market consolidation and increased competition from larger, diversified and financially stronger competitors makes our position untenable. We simply cannot effectively compete. The sale of Utiba Americas permits the company to reduce its exposure and limit additional financial investment with little likelihood of return.

The last factor is that the Transaction and the resulting proceeds will permit Alternet to leverage its experience, market contacts and operating capabilities to take advantage of opportunities in more promising sectors, such as Digital Currencies and Commerce, Mobile Micropayments and Cross Border Remittance Services, Mobile Retail Working Capital Services and Digital Customer Retention Services. Numerous opportunities are being explored and as Management and the Board of Directors select and close the on these opportunities, the investments will be promptly announced.

As a shareholder what should you expect?

Management and the Board of Directors kindly ask for your support of the Transaction. It is a key milestone for Alternet and the result of several years of hard work by Utiba Americas, Management and employees, as reflected in Utiba Americas' leadership position in the Americas market. The time has come to move on and proceed with new and exciting opportunities, with a healthier and stronger company, and a motivated Management team ready to undertake more ambitious and larger projects.

It will permit Alternet to focus its strategy directly on consumers and businesses, creating greater enterprise value and corresponding appreciation of share price and improved market perception.

The proceeds will allow Alternet to strengthen its balance sheet and streamline operations. It also allows Alternet to take advantage of the accumulated net operating losses to reduce the tax impact.

The information memorandum and the proxy have been sent to all of the shareholders on record. By the time you read this shareholder letter, you probably have received your personal copy of the information. Our Investor Relations team is available to respond any questions you may have. We encourage you to reach out to them at 1-888-823-8494 or email your inquiries to [e-mail].

Management will hold two conference calls to explain the transaction and the respond to questions. Our Investor Relations team will announce the dates for these calls in the upcoming weeks. We expect to have a Shareholder Meeting on at 9:30 am, on February 21, 2014, our offices at 2665 S. Bayshore Dr. Ste 301, Miami, Florida. It will be at this Shareholder Meeting, where the final decision will be made as to the successful approval of the proposed transaction. We welcome of all our shareholders to come to this Shareholder Meeting and expect to have a positive turnout.

The future is promising and Management and the Board of Directors are optimistic. Alternet has always been a visionary company. The path to the Internet of Money is clear, and we expect to continue delivering additional growth and value to the shareholders.

Sincerely,

Henryk Dabrowski Alternet CEO

Hm ...

Gut, daß der Kursverlauf gestern kurz vor Handelsschluß, als es von 8,5 Cent rückwärts ging auf 7,5 Cent, eine typische Schlußkurs-Kosmetik war, liegt insoweit auf der Hand.

Aber - heute geht es aktuell auf 9,5 Cent ...
sollte ATS tatsächlich wie von CEO Hendryk vorgeschlagen verkauft werden, entspräche das einem Kurs von ca. 7 Cent ...

Alternet Systems Is Awarded Ven Authority Status Through Strategic Partnership With Hub Culture

Hub Culture Acquires First Ever Stake in Public Company Using Ven


MIAMI, FL, Feb 26, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- Alternet Systems, Inc. (otcqb:ALYI) ("Alternet" or the "Company"), an accelerator of high growth opportunities in Digital Currency and Mobile Commerce services, today announced at the 2014 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain that they have been awarded Ven Authority status through a strategic partnership with Hub Culture. As part of the strategic transaction, Hub Culture will receive approximately 5 million shares of Alternet in the first ever acquisition of a public company stake using digital currency. Alternet and Hub Culture will jointly be working together to introduce new products and services to Ven users globally. Ven is the only digital currency to be priced from a basket of currencies, commodities and carbon futures, making it green, grounded and stable.

What Is Ven Ven is a global digital currency established in 2007 through the social network HubCulture.com and is the only digital currency trading on regulated financial exchanges such as LMAX.com and the Kraken.com digital asset exchange. Ven is 100% asset backed in real-time with a mix of fiat currencies, commodities and carbon, and is priced against other major currencies at floating exchange rates, creating a globally diversified hedge oriented currency. Ven was the first digital currency to float, the first used in bilateral commodity trading, and the first to include carbon in its makeup, making it the only environmentally linked currency in existence. Ven addresses security technologies in part through its security partnership with ValidSoft, wholly owned cloud security subsidiary of Elephant Talk Communications Corp. (nyse mkt:ETAK).

Ven Authorities In order to make Ven more accessible, Hub Culture authorizes independent entities known as "Authorities" to manage the liquidity of Ven. Examples of what Authorities can do includes operating on behalf of customers, provide real-time currency trading, allow corporations to convert assets to Ven to hedge their balance sheet, to meet carbon obligations, or enable an investment fund to use authority status to hold and control a large amount of Ven for a stable long-term investment solution. Ven is distributed through Authorities. The process is managed through a series of sophisticated hedging algorithms that balance the underlying reserves and issuance in real time with live financial markets data, updating as frequently as several times per second.

Mr. Henryk Dabrowski, CEO of Alternet Systems, commented, "Alternet Systems is thrilled to join the family of Ven Authorities working to bring this new age digital currency to new markets around the world. Our expertise in mobile technologies and affiliate customer bases provide rich new opportunities for this asset. Developing a strong expertise in new products and services in the digital currency sector is a core priority of our company. This evolution in strategy comes on the heels of our successful project with Utiba, which helped us build a wealth of connections and expertise that will benefit Ven and Hub Culture in the Americas. After evaluating the opportunities in the Digital Currency arena, Management believes that this partnership with Hub Culture represented the best opportunity to become a leader in what we believe will become a multi-billion dollar digital currency online transaction industry."

Stan Stalnaker, Hub Culture Founding Director, commented, "As Ven becomes increasingly recognized as a secure and transparent unit of account, its utility as a diversified hedge and stable store of value also grows. Our investment in Alternet Systems is based on our confidence in the future success of the new products and services related to Ven, which Alternet is developing with our technology team. Granting Alternet Systems status as a Ven Authority leapfrogs them to the cutting edge of the multi-billion dollar digital currency industry, and maximizes their unique capabilities to grow Ven in new markets faster. Crucial to this is Alternet's activity in mobile sectors where their connections across Latin America provide exciting opportunities to develop Ven as a tool for financial inclusion, remittances, environmental protection and foreign direct investment across the region, while also developing the North American market."

Mr. Stalnaker continued "Our strategy is markedly different than the hundreds of decentralized crypto-currencies that place their faith in a fixed supply of their asset and reject central authorities to manage them. While decentralized currencies have merit, the human role in managing Ven is designed to allow flexibility to deal with changing circumstances. Coupled with HubID and our transparent ledger, this allows us a clear and judicious path when working to grow the Ven ecosystem with regulators and financial governing authorities worldwide."

Ven (currency)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ven


Central bank
Hub Culture

Website
www.hubculture.com

Date of introduction
4 July 2007

User(s)
International


Ven (sign: VEN) is a global digital currency traded in international financial markets and originally used by members of a social network service, Hub Culture, to buy, share, and trade knowledge, goods, and services. The value of Ven is determined on the financial markets from a basket of currencies, commodities and carbon futures. It trades against major currencies at floating exchange rates. LMAX reported at the end of the first week of trading that over 14 million Ven had traded on the exchange, increasing Ven liquidity by 30%.


History

According to Hub Culture, Ven first appeared as an application in Facebook on 4 July 2007.

In 2009, The Wall Street Journal described the currency as being pegged to the US dollar, and used by Hub Culture's users to trade goods, services, and knowledge. One user described having been paid in Ven for making introductions and other favors.

In 2010, the company announced that carbon pricing contracts were added to the weighted basket that determines the value of Ven.[2] According to the company, this change made Ven “the first and only currency that is linked to the environment."

In April 2011, Hub Culture announced the first commodity trade priced in Ven, in a gold production contract valued at more than 233,000 Ven. Later that month, the company announced the first carbon offset credit trade priced in Ven, between American Carbon Registry (ACR), a carbon registry run by Winrock International, and Mata no Peito, an environmental coalition that includes ACR and Hub Culture as partners. In September 2011, Hub Culture announced that Ven would be available on Thomson Reuters' data network and terminals.

In 2012, Hub Culture announced the development of Ven Funds, derivative financial products based on the Ven, including micro-finance and commodity asset pools.

Deal aus der Sicht von HUB ...

Hub Culture today announced in Barcelona it has acquired a stake in Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCQB:ALYI), an accelerator of high growth opportunities in digital currency and mobile commerce services. The deal is the first ever acquisition of a public company stake using Ven digital currency as the value metric for purchase.


The share purchase also includes a long term commitment to work with Alternet Systems to build new products and services with Ven, by granting Authority Status to the company. In order to make Ven more accessible, Hub Culture authorizes independent entities known as “Authorities” to manage the liquidity of Ven.



Examples of what Authorities can do include operating on behalf of customers, providing real-time currency trading, allowing corporations to convert assets to Ven to hedge their balance sheets, to meet carbon obligations, or enabling an investment fund to use authority status to hold and control a large amount of Ven for a stable long-term investment solution.

Goldtaler oder Schwarzgeld?

13.11.2013 – Martin Kölling
Goldtaler oder Schwarzgeld?


Virtuelle Währungen sind der neueste Hype im Internet und in der globalen Finanzwelt. Auch wenn die erste Spekulationsblase schon geplatzt ist – Bitcoin und Co. haben das Potenzial, unser Bankensystem zu erschüttern.

Die Schuldenkrise in Zypern hat einem Phänomen aus der Obskurität des Internets in die Schlagzeilen verholfen: digitalen Währungen. Kaum bat die Europäische Union reiche Sparer bei der Rettung zyprischer Banken zur Kasse, verschoben weltweit panische Anleger ihr Barvermögen in alle möglichen sicheren Häfen. Einen fanden sie in Bitcoins, der größten einer wachsenden Schar virtueller Geldkreationen.

Was folgte, ist Geschichte. Innerhalb weniger Wochen schuf der Run auf die Währung die erste spektakuläre Spekulationsblase der neuesten Geldgeneration – und ihre erste Währungskrise gleich mit. Erst schoss der Bitcoin-Kurs im April steil auf mehr als 200 US-Dollar empor, bevor er sich jäh innerhalb weniger Stunden halbierte.

Das Epizentrum des Bebens lag in Japan. Genauer gesagt im Tokioter Stadtteil Shibuya bei Mt.Gox, der größten Bitcoin-Börse der Welt. Seit der Gründung der Währung im Jahr 2010 können Interessenten hier Konten eröffnen und ihre hart verdienten Dollars, Yen, Pfund oder Euro in digitale Münze tauschen, um munter zu spekulieren, weltweit an Banken und staatlichen Kontrollen vorbei preiswert Geld zu verschieben oder im Internet zu bezahlen.

.....

Doch wie genau die Zukunft aussehen wird, ist noch offen. Wie der Ven vielleicht? Diese Währung startete bereits 2007, um den Zahlungsverkehr unter den weltweit verstreuten Mitgliedern von Hub Culture zu erleichtern. Wie bei einer gewöhnlichen Währung wird bei diesem Konstrukt der Zahlungsverkehr von zentraler Stelle überwacht. Aber das eigentliche Ziel ist, Internet-Kommerz und Weltverbesserung zu verbinden.

So wird die umlaufende Summe im Wert von derzeit rund zwei Millionen Dollar nicht nur durch Investitionen in Währungen und Rohstoffe abgesichert, sondern auch durch umweltfreundliche Vehikel wie Emissionszertifikate. Wie eine Währung gedeckt sei, entscheide über ihren Charakter und erziehe damit die Nutzer, erklärt Ven-Gründer Stan Stalnaker seine Idee bei einem Tokio-Besuch. "Es heißt, Geld sei die Wurzel allen Übels. Was aber, wenn wir es zu einer Quelle des Guten machen können?"

Hi assa,

da komme ich an meinen Rechner und Alternet steht bei 12 Cent ...

Man hat wohl dem mobile banking abgeschworen und macht nun digital payment.
Wohl in einer Art Franchise-Nehmerschaft von einem anscheinend ganz reputierlichen Unternehmen der Branche.

Dabei scheint Alternet seine in Süd- und Mittelamerika aufgebauten Kontakte sehr gut einbringen zu können. Soll mir Recht sein.

Aber schon interessant, wie man als OTC Kleinanleger statt eines Korbes voller Äpfel plötzlich einen voller Birnen in der Hand hält ... und dabei ganz einfach nur Glück hat, daß der zweite Korb eben Birnen beinhaltet - und nicht einfach Nichts ... da bekommt das Wort "bagholder" eine weitere richtig plastische Bedeutung ...


Bereits im Vorfeld der AGM, die dann ja den Beschluß zum Verkauf der mobile banking Sparte gefaßt hat, war der Kurs bis auf ca. 9 Cent angezogen.
Nach heutigem Wissensstand wußten da also Einige schon "mehr".

Bilde ich mir das jetzt ein oder hatte ich gelesen, daß von den 90 - 100 mio ausgegebenen Aktien an der AGM ca. 55 mio stimmberechtigt (also quasi "anwesend") waren und davon ca. 51 mio dem deal zugestimmt haben ?

Wenn dem in der Tat so ist, kann man hoffen, daß die "Großaktionäre" (z.B. die Cisneros) hier etwas Positives sehen und darum dieser Neuausrichtung ihren Segen gaben.

Ich bjedenfalls auf die kommenden Wochen gespannt.

Gruß, praesens

[Simonalex]

Hi zusammen

verfolge es seit gestern und wollte aufspringen, aber nicht um jeden Preis. Aktuell geht es hoch.

Hoch 16 cents

Ich warte auf Rücksetzer. Wenn er kommt ist gut und sonst lass ich es bleiben.

[Simonalex]

Zug ist weg für mich. Hatte mein Angbot bis auf 13,2 cents erhöht. Zu 13.2 wurde getradet. Leider wurde ich nicht bedient.

Aktuell müsste ich über 15 cents bieten. Mache ich aber nicht, weil dann bestimmt ein halbe Stunde später das Ding taucht.

Ich warte ab an der Seitenlinie.

Aktuell
bid 0.15, ask 0.1511

Volumen 729'100

Kann gut sein, dass es heute noch auf 20 cents hoch geht!

[Simonalex]

Na ja 15,11 cents wären immer noch gut gewesen im Nachhinein

Vor einer Minute gingen 2,5K zu 20 cents,

Das Ding wird grausam hochgezogen.

Freut Euch ihr beiden

[praesens]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 46.535.897 von Simonalex am 27.02.14 16:57:37

Hi Simonalex,

ja, ist immer ´ne blöde Situation - man will rein, aber nicht um jeden Preis, der Preis steigt, man erhöht sein Limit, schließlich läuft es weg.

Kauft man dennoch hoch ein, geht der Kurs danach garantiert runter.
Bleibt man vernünftig und kauft nicht um jeden Preis, sieht man nur noch von unten zu.
Wie man´s macht isses falsch.

Gruß, praesens

[Simonalex]

Hi praesens,

Genau so isses

Kurz nach den 20 cents war das bid runter auf die 16 cents.
Habe dann 16,1 cents geboten, so dass der marketmakter auch auf 16,1 erhöhte. Den ersten trade habe ich natürlich nicht bekommen, dafür den danach.

Und jetzt ist bid und ask bereits 0.15 auf 0.16 cents gestellt

Es is wis is.

Gut zu 15 wäre ich immer noch nicht reingekommen

Hoffe es geht noch hoch in den nächsten Tagen.

Schwierig einzuschätzen was noch kommt.

Gucke auch hier:

http://www.stockhouse.com/companies/bullboard/alyi/alternet-…

[Simonalex]

Hoffe wir verteidigen die 16 und steigen gegen Schluss auf 18 oder Tageshoch.

Wäre schön

[Simonalex]

Last: 0.17

Routing: SMART Bid: 0.16
Special instructions: None Ask: 0.17
B/A size: 10000X60600


Zur Zeit hat es bei 17 cents 60K im ask und bei 18 cents 65K.
Sicher mehr als im bid, darum steigen wir auch nicht.

Mal schauen ob die Amis am Nachmittag noch mal Gas geben.
Wenn hier einer mit mehreren 100K puscht, müssen evtl. ein paar shorter decken.

Bei aktuell. 1,8 Mio. Volumen wären zusätzliche 200K zum pushen nicht ausserordentlich.

Zur Zeit sieht es auch so aus, als ob die jShorter sich nicht getrauen, drauf zu hauen.

Gestern (siehe bild unten) waren 53% der trades Shorts. Vielleicht haben heute einige decken müssen als es hoch ging, was den uptrend natürlich noch verstärkt hat.

Nimmt mich wunder wie die jShorts für heute ausfallen. Morgen sieht man es im Bild unten. Wenn da wieder ein grosser roter Balken ist, wäre das ausgezeichnet. Dann nämlich könnten einige wenige das ask wegkaufen und in der Folge würden die jShorter ins Schwitzen kommen.

Umgekehrt ist natürlich auch möglich, dann hauen sie noch einen drauf und dass Ding stürzt ab. In diesem Fall kaufe ich unten nochmal nach.

Good luck @ all

[asthmamoah]

Viel Glück, Simon ...

[asthmamoah]

Mich würde brennend interessieren, wer den Kurs so hochzieht und welche Motivation dahintersteht ...

Hi assa

Würde mich auch interssieren. Gibt natürlich 100 Gründe
Die Liste würde zu lang.

Im Nachhinein ist es dann meistens leichter die Motivation dahinter zu erkennen.

Zur Zeit treten wir an Ort.

Mit vier trades ins bid wurden die 16 cents verteidigt und jetzt immerhin 5 trades vom ask mit ca. 70K bei 16,4 und 16,5 cents

ask jetzt neu bei 17 cents (2 mit Total 70,5K) bei 18 stehen 95K, 30K und 5K

Immerhin kein Absturz heute und ganz leicht im Grün.

[asthmamoah]

http://www.hotstocked.com/article/77832/alternet-systems-inc…

Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTCMKTS:ALYI, ALYI message board) was traded quietly in the past year as the price was sliding down, reaching below 10 cents per share. Recently, however, the company stock is making a recovery and has reached it's highest levels in over half of year of trading.
The reason for that is the news coming in from the company. On February 25, ALYI announced that the sale of their mobile financial services subsidiary to Utiba PTE, Ltd. For up to $5.5 milion and the ticker started climbing the charts. The terms in the press release were quite vague, however, did manage to attract some interest because the company is in a dire financial state and needs to acquire cash.


•cash: $42 thousand
•current assets: $483 thousand
•total assets: $2.2 million
•current liabilities: $6.6 million
•total liabilities: $6.9 million
•quarterly revenues: $125 thousand
•quarterly net loss: $1.2 million


These were the figures contained in their financial report covering the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013 and to be honest they don't provide a lot of trust in the company's management.

Paying $602 thousand in salaries when you are making $125 thousand in revenues doesn't sound really productive in our books and it doesn't give much credibility to the management's abilities to lead the company to a bright future.

ALYI is in a period of restricturing and has began its first steps, with investors hoping that the people leading the company will finally do their job. The latest news coming from ALYI are from February 26 when we were informed that they have been awarded Ven Authority by Hub Culture and will be working together to provide new services and products to Ven (digital currency) users.

Ven has been around for quite a while, but digital currencies have just began to catch fire and are attracting a lot of attention. We reckon that this is the reason behind the 61% growth that ALYI has made after announcing the news.

Still, the market cap of $15 million that ALYI has, seems a bit high judging by their productivity, so there is still room for corrections. In any case, be sure to do your due diligence and weigh out the risks.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 46.543.727 von praesens am 28.02.14 17:47:33

Solange die Wundertüte steigt, lassen wir die Katze noch im Sack.

30 Sekunden vor Schuss gingen noch 5 Trades mit Total 119K zwischen 16,9 cents und 17 cents über den Theken.

Bid war eine Sekunde vor Schluss bei 17 cents (= gleich Absicherung) und ask bei 17,99 cents (Zückerchen :laugh ).

Ist immer gut, wenn wir ein neues Schlusshoch machen. Wenn jemand mit 100K hochzieht am Schluss, kommt evtl. noch mehr nächste Woche oder ein, zwei Shortern wurde es zu heiss vor dem Wochenende, sodass sie noch aus dem ask covern mussten.

Hoffe, dass noch eine Welle kommt nächste Woche.

Szenario für Montag oder später die Woche:

Vorbörslich bid bei 20 mit viel Volumen unterlegt und ask bei 22, damit die shorter zu Beginn kalte Füsse bekommen würden und somit bei der Eröffnung oder kurz danach wenn das Ding steigt das ask leerkaufen müssten.

Träumen darf man, manchmal werden sie wahr.

Seid ihr schon im grünen Bereich?

Hub Culture through their approved Authorities distributes Ven. The process is managed through a series of sophisticated hedging algorithms that balance underlying reserves held with major banks and financial exchanges, with issuance in real time linked to live financial markets data, updating as frequently as several times per second.

"Palm Beach Daily News - The Shiny Sheet

Palm Beach Business Group hears about new digital currency: asset-backed ven - March 15, 2014

By Robert Janjigian

Daily News Business Editor

Digital currency is deemed by some a “disruptive” technology, meant to replace or improve upon established means of payment.
“This is the wave of the future,” said Tom Ross, president of the Palm Beach Business Group, as he introduced investment banker David Weinstein and Internet entrepreneur Henryk Dabrowski. The two discussed “ven,” a digital, or crypto, currency, at the organization’s breakfast meeting Friday at 264 The Grill.
About 30 members and guests attended.
Weinstein called bitcoin, the most recognized virtual currency, “controversial,” especially in terms of security and taxation issues related to its use. But the separate bitcoin payment system — which enables the transfer of money between parties — he called “breakthrough stuff” and “foolproof.”
Ven differs from bitcoin in that it is asset-backed and represents a different approach to digital currency, Weinstein said.
Dabrowski’s Miami firm, Alternet, is working on introducing the ven system to the United States. The firm is focusing on the nascent process of making mobile payments via smart devices.
Currently, there are 4.89 vens to a dollar, he said.
Dabrowski sees bitcoin currency as too volatile, with too much fluctuation in its value. “A currency has to be stable, has to have a sustained value,” he said. Ven will be traded on exchanges and is a “universal currency” — one backed by real commodities, such as gold, silver and oil, he added.
The ven is convenient, too, according to Dabrowski: “Ven is a mobile wallet that allows for transfers of funds and payments.”
He said digital currency can cross borders easily and is a convenient alternate to carrying hard currency. It is also seen as a replacement for credit cards. Alternet aims to set up a digital bank as part of its ven-based strategy. “That will ensure its security,” Dabrowski said.
Registration is required to transmit ven; that adds to its appeal in terms of security, Weinstein said. This aspect would also address the money-laundering issues brought up with bitcoin.
Dabrowksi does not believe that digital currencies will completely replace physical currency. But he said that, eventually, they will be used for about one-third of transactions worldwide.
“There is a call for an alternate currency,” said Weinstein, citing as an example the charges for transmitting a phone call between the United States and Japan. The call goes through six countries, with payment in various physical currencies, and takes more than 30 days to finalize.
With a “cross-border” currency such as ven, the transaction would take 20 seconds to complete, Weinstein said.
For Jeremy Wiesen of West Palm Beach, a retired professor of entrepreneurship who attended the meeting, the use of ven and other digital currencies would seem more applicable for cross-border transactions and as a common currency for trading partners.
“I don’t quite know how it would work for individuals,” Wiesen said.

There are going to be a lot of people who don't like the idea of virtual currency. I and the guy that I met on the website MillionaireMatch figure that it's one of those things that might destabilize the American dollar since it's not based on assets anymore. This only really serves to widen the gap between the virtual frontiers and the ones that can be found in real life.

Posted by Tom Ross at 3:13 p.m. Mar. 15, 2014
In reply to Kendra. From my understanding of the presentation at our PBBG Breakfast and my previous review before they came, bitcoin does not have true asset backing. But the Ven is apparently quite different in that is backed by a basket of currencies ($, Eu, UK Pd, etc.), commodities (gold, oil, etc.) and carbon credits. Its volatility has been under 1%, and the assets are in Trust with a major international bank. A small stable European nation is apparently considering its registration which could make it more legitimate in the marketplace. It may be worth watching to see if one would want to get involved.

Auszug:

"In 2014, the Company’s expected milestones are:

. to enter into arrangements with select digital currencies, with the first having taken place in February 2014 with Ven;
. to provide end to end security for digital currencies;
. to launch the digital currency bank, fully compliant with government regulations, FX exchange capabilities;
. to invest in micro payment services to the unbanked and global diasporas;

VEN is a global digital currency traded in international financial markets and originally used by members of a social network service, Hub
Culture, to buy, share, and trade knowledge, goods, and services. The value of Ven is determined on the financial markets from a basket of
currencies, commodities and carbon futures. It trades against major currencies at floating exchange rates.
Hub Culture is an invitation-led social network service that operates the global digital currency Ven, and according to its website, is "the first
to merge online and physical world environments. It was founded in November 2002. The Hub Culture group of companies is privately held
with offices in Bermuda, Hong Kong, London and New York, with a network of knowledge brokers in over 20 locations worldwide. The web
site is www.hubculture.com.

In the first quarter we entered into a relationship with VEN and Hub Culture to become a VEN Authority. This relationship will allow us to
become an issuer of the VEN Currency on a global basis, leveraging the experience and the strength of this Digital Currency. We expect to
start generating revenues from the sale of the currency, by the end of the second quarter 2014.

The Company’s digital bank initiative, will focus on bringing to market innovative consumer products, including a multi-asset debit and credit
card. This initiative is the first of its kind with dynamic currency conversion from digital to physical currency, digital currency exchange and
merchant acquisition solutions. All of these services will include the seamless integration of existing digital currencies, including Bitcoin,
Ven, Ripple and others. The company expects to have a global reach, initially launching in Latin America and the Caribbean, with expansion
