PBDY WKN 931969

Gestern nacht haben wir die erste Big News bekommen bei Peabodys - diese News hat all unsere Erwartungen und Hoffnungen noch deutlich übertroffen - die Bekanntgabe der Übernahme von Beantrees einer Kette von Coffee-Shpos in den USA - hierdurch wird nicht nur der Umsatz verdoppelt , sondern auch der Cashflow verbessert , was bedeutet, dass Beantrees ebenfalls Gewinne erwirtschaftet. Man hat nun auch ein Standbein in so großen Firmen wie Yahoo! , Hewlett Packard und Intel - weiterhin verfügt man nun über einen funktionierenden Internet Vertrieb rund um die Produktpalette zum Thema Spezialkaffee.

Wichtig auch , dass diese Übernahme nur als der erste einer Reihe von Schritten zum außergewöhnlichen Wachstum bezeichnet wird - weitere Übernahmen und gute News werden also folgen - wir haben mit Peabodys einen absoluten Treffer gelandet - wir erleben derzeit die Geburt eines amerikanischen Traumes mit - der Aufstieg einer kleinen Kaffee Firma zum Big Player am Welmarkt.

Alls die bisher an unserem Zock mitgemacht haben, liegen derzeit gut im Plus - ein Verkauf kommt für mich nicht in Frage -der Kurs wurde ohnehin schon seit längerem in den USA gemacht - durch diese Übernahme sind Möglichkeiten geschaffen worden , die wir uns heute noch gar nicht auszudenken vermögen - Kursziele im Bereich von 10-20 USD mittelfristig sind nun bei einer weiterhin erfolgreichen Durchsetzung der Unternehmensstrategie absolut keine Utopie mehr - Peabodys will die Nummer 2 werden auf der Welt - hinter Stabucks - heute hat man bewiesen , dass man das ernst meint und sehr wohl im Stande ist diese Ziele ziemlich schnell zu verwirklichen.

Mein Fazit - PBDY strong Buy.

Peabodys Coffee Agrees to Acquire Beantrees, Inc.; Fast-Growing California Company Expects to Double Its Revenues Following Completion of Purchase


ROCKLIN, CA, Aug 13, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Fast-growing Peabodys Coffee Inc.,
(OTCBB: PBDY) announced today that it has entered in to a letter of intent to
acquire Beantrees, Inc., a Sacramento-based certified organic coffee company.
The dominant Beantrees brand consists of 16 company owned retail units, 8
licensed operations and a well-established wholesale and retail distribution
network. Beantrees` company owned operating units include 12 high visibility
kiosks located within the corporate facilities of Yahoo!, Hewlett Packard and
Intel. Financial terms were not disclosed.

"This acquisition will significantly increase our revenue, and the added cash
flow will contribute strongly to our earnings per share goals," said Todd
Tkachuk, Chairman of Peabodys. "We have been operating in, and analyzing the
specialty coffee market for some time and more importantly, we believe this to
be the first in a series of powerful growth steps for the new company. We are
also pleased that the combined company will focus on environmentally and
socially responsible initiatives. Peabodys espresso bars will start introducing
Beantrees Organic coffees immediately."

Since 1993, Beantrees has dedicated its business exclusively to developing the
organic coffee market in North America. By offering espresso bar service,
wholesale and retail distribution of both bulk and packaged coffees through the
corporate, educational and entertainment venues, Beantrees has been instrumental
in bringing organic coffee to the mainstream consumer. Through the Beantrees
Yahoo! Store, the company distributes over 23 varieties of organic coffee, all
third party certified by QAI International.

Beantrees has developed a network of various coffee programs through several
distribution channels. Organic office coffee service is available anywhere in
California through Daiohs First Choice Services, who currently delivers to
thousands of individual business locations in the Golden State. Additionally,
any Northern California food service operator or culinary business can order
directly through Alliant Food Service (http://www.Alliantlink.com), another key
Beantrees distribution channel.

Barrie Gromala, Founder, President, CEO of Beantrees will join Peabodys as
Senior Vice President and will serve on the Board. "We have established a
powerful leadership position in the explosive organic coffee market. Organic
coffee is the fastest growing sector of the specialty coffee market for the last
four years in a row. Our distinctive brand, our commitment to organics, and the
outstanding quality of our coffee has been instrumental to Beantrees success --
the majority of our growth has come through referral and by request. The
consumer is increasingly aware of the momentum and importance of the organic
market, and they are responding with increasing demand, fueling our growth,"
noted Gromala.

Barry Gibbons, former Chairman/CEO of Burger King Corp. and a Director of
Peabodys, added, "This move benefits both brands, and the synergies are
powerful. We have one core competence with two distinct concepts -- both with
high-growth potential. We are also adding a significant distribution presence in
the wholesale, foodservice, licensing and full service markets."
