worden.

Hallo LordMusch und alle anderen Fortel´s,

Man darf nicht vergessen das Fortel kein Pennystock sondern ein Nasdaq-Wert ist.
Fortel wurde ohne schlechten Meldungen runter geprügelt. Dabei werden Sie in diesem Jahr wieder schwarze Zahlen sehen.
Wenn man schaut mit was für Unternehmen Fortel arbeitet und die letzten Meldungen liest, dann war mir nie bange um Fortel. Das schlechte ist nur man konnte keine Aktien hier in Deutschland nach kaufen. Ich habe immer hohe Ordern zwischen 20-30 Cent zu Kauf eingetragen. Habe aber nur 600 bekommen. Da sieht man das Fortel treue Aktionäre hier in Deutschland hat.
Auch wenn sie nicht mehr hier in Board schreiben.

Ich schätze das wir nächste Woche die 1 Dollar sehen. Denn Fortel ist wär mit 3 Dollar bewertet. Das sind noch mal 500 %.

BIs dann

KK

PS: An alle die auch SPAZ haben. Ich sehe Fortel mit einer höheren Peformenc als SPAZ.

[nordblitz]

moin moin,
habe am freitag eine erste postion in fortel aufgebaut...
und wie würde der kaiser sagen: schaun mer mal!!!

[LordMusch]

Hi KK,

ich bin ganz deiner Meinung, nur am Montag wird Fortel
nicht unter 65 cent in Deutschland eröffnen, bin auf die Umsätze gespannt und den ersten Kurs.

Bis denne auf steigende Kurse

moin moin,

Hallo Ihr Fortel´s,

Am Sonntag habe ich Euro am Sonntag gelesen. Und habe mir die Performenc der letzten Wochen durchgeschaut. Und was sah ich nur, zwei Firmen über 100 %, aber Fortel mit weitem Abstand mit 157% der Beste.

Also ich offe das war erst der Anfang.

[LordMusch]

Hallo Fortelianer,

wieder 5 Prozent im plus bei knapp 60 cent an der Nasdaq,
sieht gut aus für unser Küken, allerdings der Umsatz war
nicht berauschend mit 178000.

Naja, Geld wird ja bekanntlich auch mit Sitzfleisch gemacht.

Schade nur das hier im Board nur ein Trio vorhanden ist,
aber über 200 mal gelesen, immerhin.

Leading VAR to Sell and Support eBusiness Service Level Assurance Suite
In Saudi Arabia and the Middle East

FREMONT, Calif., Jan. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) and TAMEEMA International (TTS) announced today that TAMEEMA is a reseller of FORTEL`s SightLine software suite. SightLine provides real time and edge-to-edge eBusiness service level management. TAMEEMA, a Saudi Arabian company, specializes in the installation and support of computer hardware, software and networking solutions, as well as selected vertical applications, addressing market needs in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. TAMEEMA has major customers in the oil and energy industries, health care, banking and retail/wholesale business. TAMEEMA will focus SightLine sales on eBusiness operations for banking, telecommunications, utilities and government public services as well as Internet and application service providers. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

"We are delighted to introduce SightLine software in the Middle East," said Hani Siyam, chief executive officer, TAMEEMA. "It is the right time and the right product to meet our clients` critical need for eBusiness service level assurance. SightLine is an excellent enhancement to the range of products we resell from other vendors such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, Biolink, and Computer Associates."

"This agreement reflects FORTEL`s commitment to the worldwide market. FORTEL already sells to and supports customers in North America, South America, Europe, South Africa, the Far East and Australia directly and through select partnerships. TAMEEMA, with its existing customer base and strong IT expertise, is the right partner to expand our International presence into the Middle East," said Asa W. Lanum, president and chief executive officer, FORTEL.

The reselling agreement covers Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt, through TAMEEMA`s direct presence or local partnerships. FORTEL will provide extensive training to the TAMEEMA sales force, and is implementing a round-the-clock regional support capability. TAMEEMA is headquartered in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia; FORTEL Inc. is based out of Fremont, CA. About SightLine Software

Success in the eBusiness era demands that customers receive secure, fast and efficient service levels from eBusiness infrastructures. Yet the very nature of eBusiness applications presents a number of challenges. They span the enterprise, and run on a variety of platforms and network domains that are constantly changing. Legacy network and system management products offer platform-specific point solutions that in general are event driven (problems are reported after the fact, when customers have already experienced poor service). Additionally, these point products cannot show the cause and effect relationships between components that can impact overall service levels.

FORTEL`s SightLine was developed to deal with the complexities inherent in assuring smooth and trouble-free eBusiness operations across heterogeneous multi-tiered applications. Through powerful, end-to-end, analysis and correlation capabilities SightLine identifies information flows and critical paths, helping managers predict and address trouble spots before problems turn into crises. About FORTEL Inc.

FORTEL provides the first real-time performance management solution that assures the end-to-end service-level goals of eBusiness. FORTEL`s SightLine suite is based on analysis and correlation software that has been applied and tuned for more than 10 years in the systems management performance arena by customers in finance and banking, defense management, manufacturing, retail services and government. FORTEL counts among its customers many of the world`s largest and most well known organizations and enterprises. The Company is headquartered in Fremont, Calif., and can be contacted at 510-440-9600 or by visiting its web site at www.FORTEL.com. About TAMEEMA International (TTS)

TAMEEMA is a wholly owned Saudi company specializing in industrial solutions, computer hardware, software and networking solutions, as well as selected niche solutions to address market needs in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. The company has been established since 1976 to serve the industrial sector in eastern province including Saudi Aramco and other petrochemical plants in Jubail. It has since then undergone two major extensions; the addition of the Computer Hardware Division in 1991, and the creation of the IT division in 1998.

TAMEEMA has adopted an open partnership model with selected local/regional IT companies operating in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt). Tameema is located in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia and can be contacted at 966-3-895-3626.

In dem Deal mit Heyde steht, daß das Europageschäft eine 64%ige Steigerung in Vergleich zum Vorjahr erfahren hat.

Ja, Fortel zeigt wirklich beachtliche Stärke. Auch der Chart sieht sehr gut aus. Der Stochastik hat den überkauften Bereich verlassen und steht kurz vor einem neuen Kaufsignal. MACD ist positiv. Es gibt momentan in Deutschland auch keiner seine Aktien her. Überall nur Geldkurse, in Berlin 0,72 €.

FORTEL Seeds Visualware to Open Web-Based Business

New Company Focuses on Mid-Tier Business Marketplace

FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) announced today that it has seeded Visualware, Inc., a partially owned spin-off company of FORTEL, with the VisualRoute(TM) and VisualPulse(TM) software products and a distribution license for other technology to penetrate the small-to-medium business marketplace via a Web-based business model. This initiative will allow the two different, non-competitive sales and marketing strategies of FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) software suite and the Visual products family to operate at their optimum capabilities. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

The VisualRoute and VisualPulse products are geared towards small-to-medium sized companies and are sold via a web-based channel. SightLine products are focused on large enterprise-wide solutions and sold through direct sales, reseller and partner channels. While contracts were not finalized until Monday, February 26, 2001, Visualware has been operating as an independent entity since February 2, 2001.

"Although VisualRoute and VisualPulse represent less than 3% of FORTEL`s revenue, we believe they are an important component of Visualware`s market opportunities and are market leaders in their niche," said Asa W. Lanum, president and CEO of FORTEL. "We have created Visualware to better address the small-to-medium size companies marketplace and dedicate specific efforts to further leverage the value of this product family."

"We believe that the agreements concluded with FORTEL are a win-win for both companies", said Julian Palmer, CTO of Visualware. "FORTEL`s Visual products will be ideal in filling the performance needs of the small-to-mid-sized businesses via a Web based sales strategy."

Under the terms of the spin-off, FORTEL retains the right to the VisualRoute and VisualPulse software for use in its own technology and products. FORTEL becomes a partial owner in Visualware and will receive royalties under the distribution agreement. About SightLine software

Die Sache mit dem Kursziel sieht wohl mehr nach 0 $ aus als nach 3 $. Heute minus 27% auf nur noch 0,25 $ bei sehr hohen Volumen (über 380000 Aktien). Da muß ja wohl irgendwas sehr schlechtes im Busch sein, vielleicht die Pleite ... ??? Vielleicht wird aber ja nur das alte Tief bei 0,19 $ noch einmal getestet.

Hallo Fortelianer,

weiß jemand etwas, warum der Kurs auf 25 cent eingebrochen ist????

[Livermore3]

Ich habe auch keine Ahnung !!!
Die schechte Zeit hat. Ob es was mit der Aussetzung von Heyde zu tun hat ??

[LordMusch]

Hallo Livermore,

sehe ich auch so, wenn ich deine Worte richtig interpretiere, es liegt wohl an der allgemeinen schlechten
Situation an den Börsen!!!!!

Gruß

Lord Musch

[Frakt@l]

Also, einen Zusammenhang mit Heyde kann ich mir beim besten Willen nicht vorstellen. Das ist doch nur einer von vielen Partnern von Fortel, über die man SightLine vertreiben will, noch dazu hat die Geschäftsbeziehung gerade erst begonnen.
Ein Möglichkeit für den Kursdruck kann sich durch das Ablaufen der 90-Tage Frist für das Unterschreiten der 1$ Marke für die Kurshöhe an der Nasdaq ergeben. Die läuft am 19.3.2001 aus und dann droht ein Delisting. Bisher gibt es von Fortel außer im den Conference Call zum letzten Quartalsergebnis dazu keine neuen Aussagen. Auch lassen irgendwelche Erfolgsmeldungen bzgl. neuer Kunden etc auf sich warten. Besorgniserregend finde ich wirklich den sehr hohen Umsatz am Freitag. Das war der höchste Tagesumsatz in diesem Jahr ! Damit liegt also die Vermutung nahe, dass einige wieder mehr wissen als andere. Erst fallen die Kurse, dann kommen die schlechten Nachrichten. (Das war übrigens zuletzt bei Heyde wieder wunderschön zu sehen !)

Natürlich kann es auch sein, dass die hohen Volumen nur durch Unterschreiten einer wichtigen Kursmarke zustande kamen und viele Aktionäre Stop/loss Marken gesetzt hatten, die dann ausgelöst wurden. Die Tatsache, das die hohen Umsätze erst in den letzten beiden Handelsstunden zustande kamen, als der Markt wieder deutlich abwärts ging, spricht dafür. Dann würde ich allerdings am Montag eine Gegenbewegung erwarten.

Gruß Fraktal

[LordMusch]

Hallo Fortelianer,

nach den Beiträgen ergibt sich für mich folgendes:

Fakt ist der Kurs fällt, keine News, frustierte Anleger und am 19.3.2001 droht das Delisting
Wenn das so weitergeht und Mr. Lanum mit derartiger Info-Politik weitermacht, dann werden bald für FRTL die Lichter ausgehen.

Der einzige Hoffnungsschimmer der bleibt sind Hammernews .

[Livermore3]

@LordMusch,

die Sache mit den Delisting ist nicht so schlimm, Fortel
muß nur glaubhaft machen, daß es durchaus positiv weiter
gehen kann (was Mr.Lanum nicht schwer fallen dürfte), dann bleiben sie auch notiert.
Genaueres findest Du weiter unten oder im letzten thread,
dort wurde diese Frage genau behandelt.

Ciao Liv

habe mir mal erlaubt folgende mail an Fortel zu senden,
bin mal gespannt auf eine Antwort:


Dear President and CEO Mr Lanum,

I am a private investor and have some thousand of shares of their firm and am not satisfied with the course course at all, naturally lies also with the negative surrounding field in those the exchanges and the American economy(business) at the moment considers.

The products you produce and sell are first-class, in my opinion was to be greeted Very much If, they inform their(her) investors better about the future, because if the course course of their(her) share runs on so so a Delisting is approaching in the Nasdaq shortly.

Finally perhaps still a recommendation a still so small order should come in again, or other pieces of news her are well for the product, I would urgently advise them to publish also this because, otherwise, also the last investors, sell totally frustrated your(their) shares.

For the conclusion of my mail hopefully also to you is passed on, I Would like to ask you to deliver a Short statement about the future of their(her) enterprise.

Concluding remark: I would like to inform you in no way, but only some things point on it for the purposes of the investors are.

Sincerely Yours from Germany

Naja, die Antwort ist ja wirklich Klasse. Jetzt wissen wir Bescheid ....

Wenigstens hat es heute die erhoffte Gegenreaktion von 25% im Kurs gegeben, wenn auch das Volumen deutlich niedriger war als am Freitag beim Absturz. Ich gehe jetzt aber doch davon aus, dass der Rückgang markttechnisch bzw. charttechnisch bedingt ist und nicht durch schlechte Unternehmensnachrichten (die wir nicht kennen).

FORTEL Inc. Receives Nasdaq Notification

Company Has Appealed Compliance With Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4)

FREMONT, Calif., March 22 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) today announced that it received notification from Nasdaq on March 20, 2001 that its common stock is subject to de-listing from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market for failure to comply with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4), requiring maintenance of a minimum bid price of $1 per share. FORTEL has requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Panel to review the Nasdaq`s decision. This request will stay any de-listing pending the Panel`s decision.

[Frakt@l]

Das scheint eine langwierige Sache mit der Nasdaq über das Delisting von Fortel zu werden. Am 26.4.01 ist die Anhörung. Bis dahin sollten auch die Zahlen zum 1.Q.01 da sein. Hoffen wir mal, das die gut sind, dann dürfte die Vorstellung bei der Nasdaq einfach werden. Noch einfacher wäre es natürlich, wenn sich der Kurs bis dahin auf 1$ erhöht hätte ...

FORTEL Inc. Hearing Date Set
Nasdaq Hearing to Cover All Outstanding Delisting Issues

FREMONT, Calif., March 23 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) today announced that it received notification from Nasdaq on March 22, 2001 that a date for the hearing before the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Panel to review the Nasdaq`s decision to delist its common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market has been set for April 26, 2001. In addition, the Company received further notification from Nasdaq on March 22, 2001 that its common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market for failure to comply with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(02) for currently not satisfying the net tangible assets/market capitalization/net income requirement. Until a decision is made by the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Panel, the delisting of the Company`s common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market is stayed.

Hallo Xanda1,

cooler Beitrag "game over", wenn die Stimmung am Boden

Ich betrachte Fortel als Langfristinvestment und lasse

des momentan negativen Börsengeschehens.

hallo LordMusch,
aus meiner sicht gibt es keine
fundamentales anzeichen für eine
positive entwicklung.
bei FRTL werden laufend verluste
produziert.
der umsatz im vorjahr war meines
wissens ca us$ 20 mio.
die kapitalisierung liegt derzeit
bei us$ 5,5 bis 6 mio.
bei einem KUV von 0,26 ist niemand
bereit die papiere zu kaufen. auch
nicht die insider.
die institutionellen haben massiv
verkauft.

was bleibt, ist die hoffnung, daß sich
das produkt durchsetzen kann.

das ist für mich derzeit zu wenig.
trotzdem viel glück.

[LordMusch]

Hallo Xanda1,

ich kann, die von dir geschilderte Einschätzung weder ablehnen noch bestätigen,
Wie, dem auch sei.

Tatsache ist, das ich vor einigen Wochen eine e-mail, mit einigen Fragen an Fortel Geschickt habe mit folgender Antwort in Kurzform: Fortel darf neue Aufträge nicht
veröffentlichen, weil die Kunden die nicht Veröffentlichung als Vertragsbestandteil vereinbaren. ( ist ja auch nachzuvollziehen bei Sicherheitssoftware sonst könnte jeder
Manipulieren usw. um nur ein Beispiel zu nennen.

In der Anlage habe ich die e-mail von Fortel hier noch mal reinkopiert. (Allerdings weiß ich nicht wie es mit deinem Englisch aussieht, deshalb die Antwort in Kurzform und in deutsch.

Zusammenfassend bin ich der Meinung das aus derart Vertragsgestaltung vielleicht einige positive Überraschungen ergeben können womit eigentlich keiner mehr rechnet.

Was machst du/Sie eigentlich beruflich, wenn die Frage erlaubt ist.

Hallo LordMusch,

danke für deine Antwort.
Wenn ViewPoint der Vorgänger von SightLine ist, kann ich mir kaum vorstellen, dass die Nachricht bzgl der Kooperation mit IBM richtig ist (oder zumindest sollte sie ziemlich alt sein). Soweit ich weiß, stellt Fortel den Service für den Vorgänger von SightLine ca Mitte 2002 ein und bietet allen Kunden einen Umstieg auf SightLine an. Warum sollte man also mit einem alten Produkt mit IBM zusammenarbeiten ???

Gruß Fraktal

[Frakt@l]

Ich habe gerade mal auf der IBM Homepage (www.ibm.com) nachgesehen und die Meldung unten tatsächlich unter dem Suchbegriff Fortel gefunden. Leider steht aber kein Datum bei der Info. Das kann also wirklich schon eine sehr alte Meldung sein. Richtig ist aber somit, dass Fortel und IBM zusammenarbeiten.

FORTEL Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2001 Results
/FROM PR NEWSWIRE SAN FRANCISCO 415-543-7800/

FREMONT, Calif., April 24 /PRNewswire Interactive News Release/
-- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: *!FRTL!*) today announced results for the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001. Total revenue was $3,965,000 compared to $4,091,000 for the same quarter of the prior year. License and maintenance revenue of $3,720,000 for the quarter increased 9% from the same period in the prior year. Net loss for the quarter was $2,050,000 or $0.07 per share compared to $3,072,000 or $0.12 per share for the same quarter of the prior year. Weighted average shares outstanding were 29,934,000 in the current fiscal quarter and 25,978,000 in the prior year.

"Although combined license and maintenance revenue increased 9% compared to the year-ago quarter, license revenue did not meet our projections, with most of the fall-off in the U.S. and due to the overall slowdown in the economy being reflected in budget constraints at our customers and prospects," stated Asa W. Lanum, President and CEO. "We continued to manage headcount and other expenses carefully during the quarter. With first-half performance, it will be difficult to meet our previously-stated FY 2001 target to exceed last year`s 47% software license and maintenance revenue growth. We remain committed to our goal to breakeven this year and are positioned to achieve breakeven on a cash basis at $4,500,000 quarterly revenue and breakeven on a reported income basis at $5,000,000 quarterly revenue."
Total revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2001 was $8,517,000 compared to $9,611,000 for the same period of the prior year. Software license and maintenance revenue increased 2% compared to the prior year. Net loss for the six-month period was $3,622,000 or $0.12 per share compared to $3,988,000 or $0.16 per share for the same period of the prior year. Weighted average shares outstanding were 29,573,000 for the first six months of the current year compared to 24,928,000 for the prior year. About SightLine software
Success in the eBusiness era demands that customers receive secure, fast and efficient service levels from eBusiness infrastructures. Yet the very nature of eBusiness applications presents a number of challenges. They span the enterprise, and run on a variety of platforms and network domains that are constantly changing. Legacy network and system management products offer platform-specific point solutions that in general are event driven (problems are reported after the fact, when customers have already experienced poor service). Additionally, these point products cannot show the cause and effect relationships between components that can impact overall service levels.
FORTEL`s SightLine was developed to deal with the complexities inherent in assuring smooth and trouble-free eBusiness operations across heterogeneous multi-tiered applications. Through powerful, end-to-end, analysis and correlation capabilities SightLine identifies information flows and critical paths, helping managers predict and address trouble spots before problems turn into crises.

[Frakt@l]

Nachdem der Kurs nach den Quartalszahlen doch ziemlich eingebrochen ist, hat er sich heute bei relativ hohem Volumen wieder gut erholt auf 0,21 US$ (+16,7%).

Ich habe mir den Conference Call teilweise angehört (dauert insgesamt ca 1,5 Std). Viel Neues war nicht zu erfahren. Es wurde auf folgende Punkte immer wieder hingewiesen:

- Die Cash Situation ist mit 900 k$ gut und man geht nach wie vor davon aus, in der 2. Jahreshälfte den break-even auf Profit Basis zu erreichen, d.h. eine schwarze Null auf Quartalsbasis (ich habe das so verstanden, dass man mit der 2. Jahreshälfte das Fiskaljahr meint, demnach müßte man spätestens im Quartal vom Juli bis September 2001 den Break even schaffen).
- Man wir zwar das ursprünglich geplante Umsatzwachstum von mehr als 47 % bei den Lizenzen nicht erreichen, aber man hat die Kostenstrukturen so stark verbessert, dass man den break even jetzt bereits mit 1 Mil $ weniger Umsatz schaffen wird als noch im letzten Quartal angegeben. Somit wird man jetzt auf Cash-flow Basis be ca 4,5 Mil $ Umsatz pro Quartal den break even erreichen und auf Profit Basis bei 5 Mil $ pro Quartal.
- SightLine kommt nach wie vor bei den Kunden sehr gut an, aber einige (9) Kunden haben die Beschaffung aus Budget Gründen zurückgestellt (das hat man ja so auch von vielen anderen Firmen in den USA gehört).

Einer fragte, ob Fortel eine Analysten Coverage hat. Die Antwort war: nein, aber man ist seit einigen Wochen dabei, bei verschiedenen Analystentreffen aufzutreten und die Firma bekannt zu machen.

Es gab im Call natürlich sehr viele kritische Fragen zum Aktienkurs und des möglichen Nasdaq Delisting. Das Fortel Management hat sich sehr optimistisch bzgl der heute anstehenden Anhörung bei der Nasdaq geäußert. Als Gründe für den Optimismus hat man angeführt:
- das sehr effektive Kostenmanagement
- die sehr solide Kundenbasis mit vielen bekannten grossen Firmen
- das hervorragende Produkt mit der positiven Kundenresonanz
- die Wachtumsaussichten
- die Tatsache, dass es sich bei Fortel eigentlich um ein junges Start-up Unternehmen handelt, da man Fortel im Mai 2000 praktisch neu positioniert und damit neu gegründet hat.

Man war sich einig, dass es wichtig ist, jetzt so schnell wie möglich die Nasdaq Entscheidung zu bekommen, um die Unsicherheit für die Aktionäre zu beseitigen und damit eine neue Vertrauensbasis zu schaffen.

Ich bin mal gespannt. Wenn die Nasdaq positiv entscheidet und das Marktumfeld positiv bleibt, könnte es schnell deutlich nach oben gehen. Wenn nicht, kein Ahnung ...

Gruss Fraktal

[Frakt@l]

Also, der Hit ist die Kursentwicklung bei Fortel wirklich nicht, aber immerhin konnte man heute wieder bei sehr hohen Volumen (206 200 Stck) auf 0,20 $ steigen (+5,3%).

Hier eine aktuelle News. Leider noch nichts zur Nasdaq Entscheidung ...

Stargroup is FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) Distributor in Italy

Establishes Fortel Italia to Sell and Support eBusiness Service Level
Assurance Suite

FREMONT, Calif., May 7 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) and Stargroup S.r.l. announced today that Stargroup S.r.l. is a distributor of FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) software suite. SightLine provides real time, edge-to-edge eBusiness service level management. Stargroup S.r.l., an Italian company that specializes in software solutions addressing Business-to-Business and eBusiness markets, will offer SightLine service level assurance software to its diverse customer base. Stargroup S.r.l. has opened an Italian subsidiary named Fortel Italia S.r.l. providing Italian language sales, training and technical support as part of the agreement. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

Stargroup, which resells eBusiness application management software from Starbase and Web integration products XML Solutions, counts respected and large corporations in its clientele, such as ABB, Aeonware, AMWAY, F.A.O., Fiat, Gruppo Formula, Engiweb.com, Netsiel, TXT Solutions, and ADS.

Stargroup S.r.l. becomes the ninth international partner FORTEL has announced in recent months, joining companies such as Aagaard (Scandinavia), Heyde (Germany), Unihold (South Africa), VASoft (Germany), Stratus, Unisys and Fujitsu Siemens Computers.

"FORTEL`s SightLine is an important addition to Stargroup`s portfolio, which is focused on systems management and life cycle application development tools," said Enrico Costantini, Stargroup`s COO and cofounder. "Fortel Italia S.r.l., in collaboration with other Stargroup partners, will help customers implement Service Level Assurance and round out our comprehensive Web application offering."

"We are very excited about penetrating the Italian speaking marketplaces through this alliance with Stargroup," said president and CEO Asa Lanum. "Expanding in the fourth largest marketplace in Europe reinforces our continued international strategy aimed at developing SightLine worldwide through local and targeted distribution channels."

Success in the eBusiness era demands that customers receive secure, fast and efficient service levels from eBusiness infrastructures. Yet the very nature of eBusiness applications presents a number of challenges. They span the enterprise, and run on a variety of platforms and network domains that are constantly changing. Legacy network and system management products offer platform-specific point solutions that in general are event driven (problems are reported after the fact, when customers have already experienced poor service). Additionally, these point products cannot show the cause and effect relationships between components that can impact overall service levels.

FORTEL`s SightLine was developed to deal with the complexities inherent in assuring smooth and trouble-free eBusiness operations across heterogeneous multi-tiered applications. Through powerful, end-to-end, analysis and correlation capabilities SightLine identifies information flows and critical paths, helping managers predict and address trouble spots before problems turn into crises. About FORTEL Inc.

Result of Operations

The Company recorded a net loss of $2,050,000 ($0.07 per share) for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared with a net loss of $3,072,000 ($0.12 per share) for the same quarter of the prior year. Weighted average shares outstanding for the current quarter were 29,934,000 compared to 25,978,000 for the same quarter of the prior year. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, the net loss was $3,622,000 ($0.12 per share) compared with a net loss of $3,988,000 ($0.16 per share) for the same period a year earlier. Year-to-date weighted average shares were 29,573,000 versus 24,928,000 in the prior year.

Total net sales for the current quarter was $3,965,000 versus total net sales of $4,091,000 for the same quarter of the prior year, a decrease of $126,000. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, total net sales were $8,517,000 versus total net sales of $9,611,000 for the same period a year earlier, a decrease of $1,094,000. The decrease in net sales in both periods is attributable to the closing of the hardware business and disposition of non-related training and consulting business. Software license and maintenance revenue, however, increased 9% from the same quarter a year ago and 2% from the six months period from the prior year.

Gross margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 was 77% of net sales compared to 63% of net sales for the same quarter of the prior year. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, gross margin was 74% of net sales compared to 65% of net sales for the same period a year earlier. The improvement in gross margin percentage is a result of improved product mix. The Company does not believe that the gross margins reported for the current quarter just ended are necessarily indicative of the gross margins to be expected. Gross margins may be affected by several factors, including the mix of products sold and price competition.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 were 26% of net sales compared to 17% for the same quarter of the prior year. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, research and development expenses were 24% of net sales compared to 14% of net sales for the same



period a year earlier. Actual spending increased $318,000 and $683,000 for the quarter and six-month period, respectively. The result is primarily attributable to a decrease in capitalization of engineering development cost.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 were 101% of net sales versus 120% of net sales for the same period a year earlier. Actual spending decreased $891,000. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, SG&A expenses were 92% of net sales compared to 91% of net sales for the same period a year earlier. Actual spending decreased $981,000. The decreased spending in both periods is primarily attributable to a reduction in marketing and sales personnel. In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, a loss of approximately $371,000 was incurred in the sublease of the Company`s facility in Fremont (CA).

Other expense was $50,000 for the quarter just ended versus $48,000 in the same quarter of the prior year. For both quarters ended, other expense was primarily due to the interest expense incurred on the factoring of accounts receivable.

For the six months ended March 31, 2001, other expense was $93,000 versus $140,000 for the same period a year earlier. For the current six-month period, other expense consisted primarily of interest expense incurred on the factoring of accounts receivable. For the comparable period of the prior year, other expense consisted primarily of translation losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since fiscal year 1997, in addition to the working capital provided by product sales, the Company has augmented its cash needs to finance operations primarily through the issuance of convertible subordinated notes, the private sale of common stock and proceeds from borrowings against the accounts receivable revolving line of credit.

During the six-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, working capital decreased $2,662,000 and $4,004,000, respectively. Cash flows used in operating activities were $788,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 and cash flows provided by operating activities were $1,878,000 for the same period a year earlier. For the six months ended March 31, 2001, the utilization of cash in operating activities resulted primarily from a net loss of $3,622,000 and an increase in accounts receivable of $652,000, offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $1,235,000, an increase in accounts payable of $970,000, and depreciation and amortization charges of $901,000. Cash provided by operating activities for the six-month period ended March 31, 2000 resulted primarily from an increase in deferred revenue of $4,954,000, a decrease in accounts receivable of $786,000 and depreciation and amortization charges of $1,090,000, offset by the net loss of $3,988,000 and an increase in other current assets of $1,219,000.

For the six-month period ended March 31, 2001, net cash provided by investing activities of $5,000 was comprised of disposal of fixed assets of $37,000 and acquisition of fixed assets of $32,000. During the six-month period ended March 31, 2000, net cash used in investing activities of $1,221,000 was primarily made up of $811,000 in capitalized software development costs and $372,000 in acquisition of fixed assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $803,000 and $115,000 for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. For the six-month period ended March 31, 2001, cash provided by financing activities was comprised of $3,282,000 from borrowings, $46,000 from the sale of stock under the Company`s employee stock purchase plan offset by repayment of borrowings of $2,525,000. Net cash provided by financing activities for the same period a year earlier of $115,000 was comprised of $32,000 from the sale of stock under the Company`s employee stock purchase plan and $83,000 from stock options exercised.



The Company currently plans to increase its revenues to a level that will finance expected expenditures and result in at least neutral cash flows from operations. However, until that stage is reached, the Company will continue to use its current cash on hand, working capital, and utilize the available accounts receivable line of credit.

If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations or should management determine it to be prudent, it may attempt to raise additional debt or equity. There can be no assurance that in the event the Company requires additional financing, that such financing will be available on terms which are favorable or at all.

In the event that the Company is unable to increase revenue levels or financing is unavailable, management has developed alternative plans which will entail the reduction of expenses to levels that could be financed by revenues generated. Such reductions in expenditures may include actions similar or greater in scope than the reduction in workforce undertaken by the Company in September 2000. There can be no assurance that the reduction in workforce undertaken in September 2000 or any further cost cutting exercises will be successful in completely eliminating the difference between expenditures and revenues or that such actions would not have a harmful effect on the Company`s business and results of operations.

Based on its current plans, management believes that the Company will meet its cash requirements for the next twelve months from cash on hand, working capital, cash flow from operations, and utilization of the available accounts receivable line of credit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

On October 1, 2000, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and requires that all derivatives be recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. The adoption of SFAS 133 had no effect on the accompanying financial statements.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB 101), Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financials filed with the SEC. SAB 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies. The Company is required to adopt SAB 101 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. We believe that the implementation of SAB 101 will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Risks Associated with FORTEL`s Business and Future Operating Results:

Set forth below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in other documents we file with the SEC are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report.

Fluctuations in Quarterly Results

FORTEL`s quarterly operating results have in the past varied and may in the future vary significantly depending on a number of factors, including:

o o

The level of competition, the size, timing, cancellation or rescheduling of significant orders;

o

Market acceptance of new products and product enhancements;

o

New product announcements or introductions by FORTEL`s competitors;


o o

Deferrals of customer orders in anticipation of new products or product enhancements;

o

Changes in pricing by FORTEL or its competitors;

o

The ability of FORTEL to develop, introduce and market new products and product enhancements on a timely
basis;

o

FORTEL`s success in expanding its sales and marketing programs;

o

Technological changes in the market for FORTEL`s products;

o

Product mix and the mix of sales among FORTEL`s sales channels;

o

Levels of expenditures on research and development;

o

Changes in FORTEL`s strategy; personnel changes; and,

o

General economic trends and other factors.

Due to all of the foregoing factors, FORTEL believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indicator of future performance. It is possible that in some future quarter the Company`s operating results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors.
Recent Levels of Net Sales Have Been Insufficient

The Company has not generated net sales sufficient to produce an operating profit in recent years. The Company has relied on significant financings to support its activities. Operations in prior years were also partially funded by a stream of royalty payments under an agreement with IBM. This agreement was terminated in April 1998. The Company sustained substantial operating losses and net losses in fiscal years 1997 through 2000. The Company must generate substantial additional net sales and gross margins on its products and services and must continue to successfully implement programs to manage cost and expense levels in order to remain a viable operating entity. There is no assurance that the Company can achieve these objectives.

Significant Losses

For the first half of fiscal year 2001, the Company reported a net loss of $3,622,000. The Company reported total net losses of $8,653,000, $13,103,000 and $43,205,000 for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

The Company has taken a number of steps to attempt to return to profitability, although there is no assurance that it will be successful. A significant portion of the cumulative losses were caused by the funding of MatriDigm Corporation and operations of the Company`s former storage systems business, which was sold in July 1998. MatriDigm filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy in October 1999 so there will be no additional funding. The Company has subleased its Fremont, California headquarters, and moved to substantially smaller and less costly premises.

The Company continues to consider options and take actions necessary to bring costs into line with anticipated revenues. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in this effort and remain a viable operating entity.

FORTEL Stock Price Has Been Volatile

The price of FORTEL`s common stock during the six-month period of fiscal year 2001 ranged from the low closing bid price of $0.2031 to the high closing bid price of $1.03125. During the fiscal year 2000, the price of the Company`s common stock was volatile, ranging from the low closing bid price of $0.65625 to the high closing bid price of $6.625.



The Company received on March 22, 2001 a determination letter from Nasdaq Staff indicating that our securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market at the opening of business on March 28, 2001.

The determination was the result of the Company failing to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days as required by the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) and that the Company did not demonstrate an ability to sustain compliance within the 90-day grace period allowed in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(B). The potential de-listing of the Company`s common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market may affect the trading liquidity and the price of its common stock. In addition, the Company received further notification from Nasdaq on March 22, 2001 that its common stock is subject to de-listing from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market also for failure to comply with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(02), for currently not satisfying the net tangible assets/market capitalization/net income requirement. A date for the hearing before the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Panel to review the Nasdaq`s decision to delist its common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market had been set for and was held on April 26, 2001. Until a decision of the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Panel is reached, the delisting of its common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market is stayed. The potential de-listing of FORTEL`s common stock from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market may affect the trading liquidity and the price of its common stock.

Competition

The market for system management tools in which the Company`s software products business unit competes is intensely competitive. Many of the companies with which the Company competes, such as Computer Associates International, Inc., Hewlett-Packard Company, and BMC Software, Inc. have substantially larger installed bases and greater financial resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company`s competitors will not develop products comparable or superior to those developed by the Company or adapt more quickly than the Company to new technologies, evolving industry standards, new product introductions, or changing customer requirements.

Dependence on New Products; Rapid Technological Change

The markets in which the Company operates are characterized by rapid technological change, changing customer needs, frequent new product introductions and evolving industry standards. The introduction of products embodying new technologies and/or the emergence of new industry standards could render the Company`s existing products and services obsolete and unmarketable. The Company`s future success will depend upon its ability to develop and to introduce new products and services on a timely basis that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of its customers. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing and marketing products or services that respond to technological changes or evolving industry standards, that the Company will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and marketing of new products or services, or that its new products or services will adequately meet the requirements of the marketplace and achieve market acceptance. If the Company is unable, for technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new products or services in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements, the Company`s business, operating results and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.

Product Liability

The Company`s agreements with its customers typically contain provisions intended to limit the Company`s exposure to potential product liability claims. It is possible that the limitation of liability provisions contained in the Company`s agreements may not be effective. Although the Company has not received any product liability claims to date, the sale and support of products by the Company and



the incorporation of products from other companies may entail the risk of such claims. A successful product liability claim against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company`s business and financial position, as well as operating results and cash flows.

Dependence on Proprietary Technology

The Company`s success depends significantly upon its proprietary technology. The Company currently relies on a combination of patent, copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and contractual provisions to protect its proprietary rights. The Company seeks to protect its software, documentation and other written materials under trade secret and copyright laws, which afford only limited protection. The Company has registered its trademarks and will continue to evaluate the registration of additional trademarks as appropriate. The Company generally enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees and with key vendors and suppliers. The Company currently holds a United States patent on one of its software technologies. There can be no assurance that this patent will provide the Company with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties, or that the patents of others will not have a material adverse effect on the Company`s ability to do business. The Company believes that the rapidly changing technology in the computer industry makes the Company`s success depend more on the technical competence and creative skills of its personnel than on patents.

There has also been substantial litigation in the computer industry regarding intellectual property rights, and litigation may be necessary to protect the Company`s proprietary technology. The Company has not received significant claims that it is infringing third parties` intellectual property rights, but there can be no assurance that third parties will not in the future claim infringement by the Company with respect to current or future products, trademarks or other proprietary rights.

The Company expects that companies in its markets will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in the Company`s target markets grows. Any such claims or litigation may be time-consuming and costly, cause product shipment delays, require the Company to redesign its products or require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company`s business, operating results or financial condition. Despite the Company`s efforts to protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of the Company`s products or to obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary. There can be no assurance that the Company`s means of protecting its proprietary rights will be adequate or that the Company`s competitors will not independently develop similar technology, duplicate the Company`s products or design around patents issued to the Company or other intellectual property rights of the Company.

International Sales and Operations

Sales to customers outside the United States have accounted for significant portions of the Company`s net sales. The Company currently has offices in and is operating in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, and France. International sales pose certain risks not faced by companies that limit themselves to domestic sales. Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, for example, could make the Company`s products less price competitive. If the Company, in the future, denominates any of its sales in foreign currencies, this could result in losses from foreign currency transactions. International sales also could be adversely affected by factors beyond the Company`s control, including the imposition of government controls, export license requirements, restrictions on technology exports, changes in tariffs and taxes and general economic and political conditions. The laws of some countries do not protect the Company`s intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. The Company does not believe these additional risks are significant in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany or France.



Dependence on Key Personnel

The Company`s future performance depends significantly upon the continued service of its key technical and senior management personnel. The Company provides incentives such as salary, benefits and option grants (which are typically subject to vesting over four years) to attract and retain qualified employees. Recently the Company`s stock price has been volatile and as such, many of the Company`s employees hold options with exercise prices greater than the market price of the Company`s Common Stock. As a result, the prior grants of options to the Company`s employees may not be a significant incentive to retain the services of these individuals. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company`s officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company`s business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company`s future success depends on its continuing ability to retain highly qualified technical and management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company can retain its key technical and management employees or that it can attract, assimilate and retain other highly qualified key technical and management personnel in the future.

The Company believes there is significant competition for the few software development professionals with the advanced technological skills necessary to perform the services offered by the Company`s business. The Company`s ability to maintain or renew existing relationships and obtain new business depends, in large part, on its ability to hire and retain technical personnel. An inability to hire such additional qualified personnel could impair the ability of the business to manage and complete its existing projects and to bid for and obtain new projects.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certain provisions of the Company`s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated, and Bylaws, as amended, California law and the Company`s indemnification agreements with certain officers and directors of the Company may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect. Such provisions may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that one or more stockholders consider to be in the best interests of same, including attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.

The Company`s Board of Directors may issue additional shares of Common Stock or establish one or more classes or series of Preferred Stock, having the number of shares, designations, relative voting rights, dividend rates, liquidation and other rights, preferences and limitations determined by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval.

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the adoption of a Preferred Share Purchase Rights Plan (the "Rights Plan"). Terms of the Rights Plan provide for a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Shares"), of the Company. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, no par value (the "Preferred Stock"), at an exercise price of $69.50 per one one-hundredth of a Preferred Share (the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment, and a redemption price of $.01 per Right. Each one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred Stock has designations and the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions which make its value approximately equal to the value of a Common Share.

The Rights are not exercisable until the earlier to occur of (i) 10 days following a public announcement that a person, entity or group of affiliated or associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding Common Shares or (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to such time as any person(s) or entity becomes an Acquiring Person) following the commencement of, or



announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would result in the beneficial ownership by an Acquiring Person of 15% or more of such outstanding Common Shares.

The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects, as they would cause substantial dilution to a potential Acquiring Person that attempted to acquire the Company on terms not approved by the Company`s Board of Directors. The Rights should not interfere with any merger or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors, since the Rights may be redeemed by the Company at $.01 per Right prior to the earliest of (i) the twentieth day following the time that an Acquiring Person has acquired beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Common Shares (unless extended for one or more 10 day periods by the Board of Directors), (ii) a change of control, or (iii) the final expiration date of the rights.

bin gespannt, wielange die kommission die delistingentscheidung hinausschieben will, eigentlich wäre nach dem 10k jetzt damit unmittelbar zu rechnen, der chart sieht aber alles andere als nach neuen tiefs aus...

so schnell kanns gehen, delistet mit dem heutigen Tage! etwas unpassend, wenn man sich den chart anschaut...

Nasdaq Discontinues Trading FORTEL Stock
Company Committed to Profitable Performance for Second Half of Fiscal 2001
FREMONT, CA - May 16, 2001 – FORTEL Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTL) received notice on May 15, 2001 from The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., effective with the open of business on May 16, 2001, that The Nasdaq Stock Market had determined to de-list FORTEL common stock. This decision was based on the Company’s failure to meet Nasdaq net tangible asset/market capitalization/net income and stock price requirements and was made after a hearing with the Company and Nasdaq officials on April 26, 2001. FORTEL common stock will be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board. To be re-listed on Nasdaq, the Company must petition Nasdaq as well as show that it has met re-listing requirements.

Mr. Asa W. Lanum, FORTEL`s CEO and President, stated, "FORTEL continues to work aggressively toward improving its reported results. The Company is committed to achieving profitable operations in the second half of this fiscal year and is positioned to achieve cash breakeven at $4,500,000 quarterly revenue and reported income breakeven at $5,000,000 in quarterly revenue." FORTEL reported its second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2001 revenue of $3,965,000 on April 24, 2001.

Hallo Fortelianer,

recht ruhig hier am Board, kein Wunder bei der Nachricht.

Übrigens, Kurs 20 cent zu sehen bei http://www.otcbb.com

Was meint ihr, wie geht es weiter mit Frtl??????

Gruß

Lord Musch

[Frakt@l]

... das delisting ist natürlich schon eine mächtige Enttäuschung. Wenn man bedenkt, wieviele Firmen über sehr lange Zeit weit unter einem Dollar an der Nasdaq notieren, gibt die Entscheidung schon zu denken.

Der Kurs ist übrigens jetzt auch wieder unter nasdaq.com mit Kürzel FRTL zu sehen. Nur steht jetzt eben bei Market nicht mehr NASDAQ sondern OTCBB. Aktueller Kurs: 0,18 US$ (Tief lag heute bei 0,15 US$). Damit sind die Gewinne der letzten Tage wieder weg. Naja, das ist wohl kein Wunder. Wie geht es weiter ? Keine Ahnung. Hängt nur von Fortel ab. Die müssen jetzt zeigen, dass sie wirklich wachsen und Profit machen können, und zwar schnell.

Gruß Fraktal

[Frakt@l]

Der Fortel Schlußkurs liegt heute bei 0,19 US$, also doch wieder deutlich über dem Tagestiefstkurs. Es wurden 244700 Aktien gehandelt, für Fortel also recht viel. Nach dem ersten Schock über das Delisting scheint man also recht schnell wieder zur Normalität zurückzukehren. Das bedeutet aber wohl auch, dass wir uns noch längere Zeit mit diesen Tiefstkursen abfinden müssen. Fortel gehört ja nicht eben zu den Firmen, die durch gute IR Arbeit überzeugen, also werden wir wohl vor den nächsten Zahlen Anfang Juli nichts neues mehr hören.

Gruß Fraktal

[erkilein]

ich stelle meine restlichen 5000 zum verkauf, wie gewonnen so zeronnen...frtl wird nicht wieder auf die beine kommen bei 900.000 cash und 4 mio angestrebtem quartalsumsatz, zumal heyde in D ebenfalls bald dicht machen dürfte, der vertrieb wird für alle zu teuer, dazu brauchts nen dicken partner wie HP oder MSFT, aber dafür reicht das potential wohl kaum. mit dem delisting gerät man in vergessenheit, unglücklicher zeitpunkt...schade eigentlich, ebenso jetzt dicker riß im chart, die indikatoren sind sämtlich wieder nach unten gedreht

[LordMusch]

Hallo Fortelianer,

die Boardteilnehmer in Amiland sind sehr aktiv, tappen aber
genau wie wir alle im Dunkeln, einige meinen das wars, andere schreiben Mr. Lanum wird es schon richten und von Übernahme bzw. Verkauf ist auch die Rede, also eine wilde Gerüchteküche.

Insgesamt ist die Stimmung am Boden, was das heißt, dürfte
vielen von euch bekannt sein.

Auf hoffentlich bessere Zeiten!!!!!

Nachdem in den letzten Tagen nicht viel los war im Handel mit Fortel Aktien, gab es heute extrem hohe Umsätze in USA: 239 400 Stck mit letzlich einem Anstieg um 5% auf 0,21 US$ (im Hoch 0,23 US$). News habe ich allerdings keine gefunden. Bin mal gespannt, wie das weitergeht ...

Gruss Fraktal

Wenn das stimmt, daß wäre der Hammer!!!!!!!!!!!! Latest news release may confirm that Visualware`s VisualProfile may indeed be an alternative to Fortel`s ViewPoint/SightLine?

Global Enterprise Customers Deploy SightLine

BT Cellnet, Lloyds TSB, Aurum Technology and Others Select FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) Suite for Service Level Assurance

FREMONT, Calif., July 19 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced that a number of enterprise customers worldwide have selected FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) software to assure service levels of their critical applications. The customers are from diverse industries and include Alpha Bank, Amadeus, Arena Online Services Ltd, Aurum Technology, Bournemouth CC, BT Cellnet, Coventry Building Society, Fahrlehrerversicherung, Gouden Gids, Kalamazoo, Lloyds TSB, RDW and The French Lottery. The variety of customers and applications demonstrate the versatility of SightLine and its ability to satisfy a range of service level assurance requirements.

"These agreements clearly demonstrate that SightLine is a powerful tool that is building momentum," said Asa Lanum, president and CEO of FORTEL. "Enterprises around the world have seen the need for end-to-end service level assurance, and have selected SightLine as their solution of choice."

SightLine provides business and technical users with realtime information on the health of their multi-tiered enterprise and eBusiness operations, allowing them to identify and resolve the true cause of service level degradations, or outages, before the customer is impacted.

"BT Cellnet`s network handles over 30 million calls a day and covers 99% of the UK population. It is essential that we know early on about any potential service level degradation so that we can quickly correct it," said Derek O`Harrow, Systems Operations Manager of BT Cellnet. "FORTEL`s SightLine allows us to assure the levels of service throughout our GSM network."

"FORTEL`s Sightline is the backbone of our DataCenter operations. We are continually using Sightline to review system usage and trouble shoot system issues. The correlation engine has helped Aurum to realize the efficiency of its platforms, that now run at the speed of light," said Robert D`Amelio, Director of Unisys Compute Services, Aurum Technology. About SightLine software

Success in the eBusiness era demands that customers receive secure, fast and efficient service levels from eBusiness infrastructures. Yet the very nature of eBusiness applications presents a number of challenges. They span the enterprise, and run on a variety of platforms and network domains that are constantly changing. Legacy network and system management products offer platform-specific point solutions that in general are event driven (problems are reported after the fact, when customers have already experienced poor service). Additionally, these point products cannot show the cause and effect relationships between components that can impact overall service levels.

FORTEL`s SightLine was developed to deal with the complexities inherent in assuring smooth and trouble-free eBusiness operations across heterogeneous multi-tiered applications. Through powerful, end-to-end, analysis and correlation capabilities SightLine identifies information flows and critical paths, helping managers predict and address trouble spots before problems turn into crises.

Fortel Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2001 Results

Receives Largest SightLine(TM) Order Amid Slowing Sales Activity in U.S.
And Europe

FREMONT, Calif., July 26 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced results for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2001. Total revenue was $3,453,000 compared to $3,965,000 for the prior quarter and $7,791,000 for the same quarter of the prior year, which included software license revenue of $2,870,000 from Unisys Corporation under a December 1999 software license and reseller agreement. License and maintenance revenue in the third quarter of this year was $3,218,000 compared to $3,720,000 in the prior quarter and $6,797,000 in the same period of the prior year. Eliminating prior-year revenues generated by the Unisys license and reseller agreement and by discontinued lines of business, revenue declined by approximately $531,000 or 7% year over year. Net loss for the quarter was $2,591,000 or $0.09 per share, which included non-recurring charges totaling approximately $1,165,000 or $0.04 per share. A net loss of $2,050,000 or $0.07 per share was reported in the prior quarter and net income of $57,000 or $0.00 per share was reported in the prior year`s third fiscal quarter, which included a $1.0 million one-time gain on settlement of litigation. Weighted average shares outstanding were 30,226,000 in the current fiscal quarter and 26,386,000 in the prior year. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

"Despite receiving our largest order for SightLine, for more than $650,000, during the June quarter," stated Asa W. Lanum, FORTEL CEO and President, "we continued to experience softness in the US market and slowing sales activity in Europe.

"Customer confidence in SightLine, FORTEL`s real-time performance management solution that assures end-to-end service-levels, remains high," continued Mr. Lanum, "as Mr. Steve Smith, Technical Manager of Arena Online Services Ltd, a new SightLine customer, reported, `SightLine was the only product tested which actually delivered the required information, at the required cycle-rate, across our range of integrated systems architecture, without adversely affecting either the quality of the data nor the systems which were being monitored. A first-class product without equal.`"

Total revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2001 was $11,970,000 compared to $17,402,00 for the prior year. Software license and maintenance revenue was $10,921,000 compared to $14,368,000 in the prior year. Net loss for the nine-month period was $6,213,000 or $0.21 per share compared to a net loss of $3,931,000 or $0.15 per share for the same period of the prior year. Weighted average shares outstanding were 29,791,000 for the first nine months of the current year and 25,760,000 for the prior year. About SightLine software

FORTEL Extends SightLine(TM) With Real Time Business Views

Offers Early Warning System and Dynamic Service Level Testing

FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced the availability of Service Agents and Summary Advisor/Vision, two new components that extend the real-time capabilities of SightLine(TM). The new components give business users a simple real-time view into the health and status of eBusiness operations, enabling them to swiftly identify any events or trends that may negatively impact electronic operations. These real-time measurements easily integrate with SightLine`s in-depth utilization measurements, delivering the industry`s first comprehensive and dynamic service level assurance solution. (Photo: NewsCom:: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

Summary Advisor/Vision (SA/V) offers real-time snapshots of end-to-end business health. Customizable web-based views monitor specific applications, discrete transaction flows or the overall eBusiness infrastructure, in real-time. Summary level analysis and correlation are provided for immediate review of trends and high-level problem determination. Service Agents dynamically test the responsiveness and availability of individual web-based services and applications, mirroring real-time user experience. Real-time measurement can be used to trigger early warnings of service level degradations or potential degradations, based on real-time measurements or trends in testing results.

"eBusiness stakeholders are concerned with simple but critical questions such as: is my service running at the level my customers expect? Is there any degradation in the level of service I provide? And what factors are working together to create potential service problems?" said Asa Lanum, president and CEO of FORTEL. "SightLine`s new components provide simple and straightforward views that answer these questions in real time, before small problems become big ones."

"Today`s eBusiness and web-based corporate applications frequently depend on the robustness of multiple infrastructure components," said Milind Govekar, research director, Gartner Research and Advisory Services. "Ensuring the overall service quality experienced by end users requires that these components -- as well as the applications they support -- function reliably with good response time."

The extended SightLine suite integrates the two core domains of management information, namely service delivery and resource utilization. Service Agents provide an immediate snapshot of time and availability metrics for specific services such as web pages or web transactions, email, Domain Name Server (DNS) or File Transfer Protocol (FTP). Resource measures, gathered by Power, Summary and Interface Agents, provide a broad range of utilization metrics, related to the specific infrastructure component and its current and historical performance. The combination of service and utilization measures provides organizations with the ability to dynamically test for service experiences, and to diagnose service level issues and locate the true cause of eBusiness service level changes, even in the most complex infrastructures.

SA/V is designed for flexible and fast deployment. Its light footprint enables simple deployment and maintenance across the enterprise. About SightLine software

Yet the very nature of eBusiness applications presents a number of challenges. They span the enterprise, and run on a variety of platforms and network domains that are constantly changing.

Die Fortel Zahlen für das 4.Q.2001 und Gesamtjahr sind da.
Für mich überraschend positiv: ein relativ hoher Umsatz im 4.Q.2001 (3,8 Mil.$) und das erreichen eines positiven Cashflows. Bei dem momentanen Umfeld eine respektable Leistung. Dafür sieht die Bilanz ziemlich katastrophal aus. Die Bilanzsumme ist von 9,7 Mil.$ auf 5,2 Mil.$ gefallen, die Verbindlichkeiten liegen insgesamt bei 11,5 Mil.$. Das sieht schon wirklich ungesund aus. Der Verlust liegt offensichtlich aufgrund von Sonderabschreibungen in Höhe von 3,2 Mil.$ bei 3,55 Mil.$. Die Liquidität beträgt 0,77 Mil.$.

FORTEL Reports First Quarter Fiscal Year 2002 Results

FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced revenue for the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2001 of $3,051,000 and a net loss of $1,840,000 or ($0.06) per share on 30,567,000 weighted average shares outstanding. This compares to prior-year first quarter revenue of $4,552,000 and a net loss of $1,572,000 or ($0.05) per share on 29,221,000 weighted average shares outstanding. Total revenue decreased $1,501,000 from the prior year`s first fiscal quarter. The decrease in total revenue resulted primarily from a 48% decrease in software license sales of approximately $1,100,000 and a decrease in consulting revenue of approximately $267,000. (Photo: NewsCom: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

In January 2002, an existing contract was amended resulting in the deferral of approximately $1,362,000 of what would have been recognizable software license revenue for the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2001. Included in the current quarter`s net loss were non-recurring charges totaling approximately $440,000.

"Although we continued to experience softness in the US and European markets, customer confidence in SightLine(TM), FORTEL`s real-time performance management solution that assures end-to-end service-levels, remains high," stated Asa W.

Anbei eine Meldung von Fortel.
Übrigens kann ich den Conference Call zum letzten Quartalsbericht nur wärmstens empfehlen. Da geht es mal richtig zur Sache. Einige Investoren greifen Asa Lanum massiv an. Da wird ihm unter anderem vorgeworfen, dass er jedesmal im Conference Call sehr optimistisch für das kommende Quartal ist, dann aber wieder grottenschlecht Zahlen kommen. Dann hat Asa wohl für sage und schreibe 3100 US$ Fortel Aktien gekauft. Ein Investor fragt ihn, ob er sich nicht mehr leisten könne. Als Asa dann sagt, er hätte momentan nicht mehr Geld dafür verfügbar, zweifelt der Investor Asa`s Fähigkeit an, überhaupt ein Unternehmen zu führen, wenn er nicht mal seine privaten Finanzen in Ordnung hat. Wenn jemand 250 000 US$ im Jahr verdient, sollte es doch möglich sein, etwas mehr in Aktien anlegen zu können. Und so geht es weiter ....

FORTEL Partners with Tevron to Introduce SightLine™ AcuTest™ Interface Agent

Increases Transaction Simulation Metrics That Improve Client Side Application Testing and Measurement

Fremont, CA. February 12, 2002 - FORTEL Inc. (OTC BB: FRTL) today announced an agreement with Tevron to integrate the results gathered by Tevron’s AcuTest™ software with FORTEL’s SightLine™, to increase the range of available measurements from simulated infrastructure testing. In addition, FORTEL has announced the availability of an interface agent that collects data from Tevron’s AcuTest automated testing solution, and correlates the metrics with FORTEL’s SightLine service level management software suite.

With the addition of the AcuTest Interface Agent, FORTEL facilitates the correlation of AcuTest’s versatile transaction simulation capabilities with enterprise resource utilization measurements captured by SightLine. The additional measurements enable customers to accurately determine client side application performance and report real-time performance metrics.

"By correlating metrics from Tevron’s automated testing solutions with those gathered by FORTEL’s service level assurance software suite, we can provide our customers with improved metrics to enhance the real-time performance management and the reporting of potential service degradation, augmenting response times and improving the end-user experience," said Jay Labadini, president and CEO of Tevron.

The combined ability of SightLine and AcuTest makes it possible to correlate end-user transaction simulation capabilities with traditional resource utilization activity, isolate and identify the factors that impact service, and send warnings about potential problems well in advance.

"The addition of a Tevron Interface Agent will enhance SightLine’s ability to correlate critical IT resource metrics with detailed information about transaction activity and end-user service levels to identify trends and the true cause of performance issues," said Asa Lanum, president and CEO of FORTEL. "AcuTest complements our unique analysis engine and extends our claim to be the only vendor that integrates external data services and internal utilization metrics."

FORTEL`s SightLine(TM) the First Service Level Assurance Software to Support The Generic Security Service API

FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced that it has become the first to successfully implement the Generic Security Service application interface (GSS-API) in service level assurance software. The GSS-API enables FORTEL to provide a level of protection to its Sightline deployments that extends both inside and outside the enterprise firewall, minimizing the risk of firewall penetration and corruption of data by users. (Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

The need to secure business information is increasingly important in today`s highly networked world, as more people than ever before have access to enterprise systems and data. The GSS-API is an emerging standard that is backed by organizations such as IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) to extend the protection levels provided by previous security standards outside the enterprise firewall, protecting enterprise-wide data. FORTEL has applied the GSS-API to permit individual service level authentication and authorization, allowing SightLine to securely collect resource performance data and present a complete, edge-to-edge analysis of the business infrastructure`s health.

"FORTEL`s SightLine offers a service level management suite that directly implements a full set of security services and use digital certificates as part of its architecture, putting it in a class by itself," said Farid Neema, president of industry analyst firm Peripheral Concepts, Inc. "The GSS-API minimizes two key risks to enterprise infrastructure, firewall penetration and employee errors."

"Traditional enterprise network security implements a firewall around a system, like a moat around a castle. The problem with this methodology is that once the firewall is breached, all of the internal systems may be at risk of corruption. The new GSS standard makes it possible to secure systems separately from one another, thereby reducing the risk from employee errors as well as from unwanted intruders," said Asa Lanum, President and CEO of FORTEL. "Sightline Secure from FORTEL supports the new GSS standard and provides protection for its customers deploying the Sightline product family. FORTEL customers can now deploy Sightline with the utmost confidence, knowing they are backed by the industry-leading standard of security."

The GSS-API employs RSA Labs` PKCS-11 Cryptoki encryption for confidentiality and integrity, ensuring safe interaction at the secure sockets layer (SSL) and using digital certificates to ensure authentication of the user and the transaction at the enterprise site. SightLine users receive a digital certificate that is authorized through an access list of users permitted to perform secure functions within the enterprise environment. The RSA Cryptoki encryption employs a non-repudiation log that keeps track of users that communicate through the SSL socket and will enhance accuracy and speed of authentication.

FORTEL Releases Version 2.0 of SightLine(TM) HTTP Service Agent-EnhancesTransaction Performance Management Capabilities With Complete View Of User WebExperience

FREMONT, Calif., Feb 28, 2002 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- FORTEL Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FRTL) today announced the availability of version 2.0 of the HTTP Service Agent, that will enable SightLine to simulate the user experience by monitoring and assessing the performance of complex multi-step web transactions. This new addition extends the transaction performance management capabilities of SightLine to offer a comprehensive view of the user`s web transaction experience in order to more accurately determine potential service level degradation.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000620/FORTELOGO )

FORTEL`s SightLine is a more cost effective, comprehensive service level assurance solution than traditional performance management tools. SightLine can now include its HTTP 2.0 Service Agent information to easily monitor the end-user experience and level of service. When service degradation occurs, SightLine`s unique correlation and analysis capabilities can be used in real-time to pinpoint the root cause and then restore the enterprise to the proper level of service quickly and efficiently.

The HTTP Service Agent 2.0 will simulate complete web sessions ranging from the simple single step transaction to the complex multiple step transactions over secured environments by allowing the user to capture, display, edit and replay the command sequences and parameters associated with a multi-step web session. It will also execute the recorded test to provide an assessment of the complete user web experience for review of trends and high-level problem determination.

"SightLine is providing a more comprehensive view of the end-user web experience by simulating transactions that were previously impractical to measure. These advanced measurements help determine the true cause of service level issues or potential degradations," said Asa Lanum, president and CEO of FORTEL. "Version 2.0 of the HTTP Service Agent protects and leverages the investments our customers have already made in SightLine products by extending its capabilities and providing even more advanced metrics."

A simulated user session may consist of one or more individual transactions designed to accomplish a specific task, such as ordering an item, making a bid on an auction or completing a Web search. Generally, such sessions are performed through a web browser, so communications between the client`s browser and Web site are recorded for replay. The combination of service level and resource utilization metrics provides SightLine users with the ability to view current service levels operation, diagnose service level degradation and locate the true cause of service level issues.
