For sharholders who believe in SFNN, here is a letter from mb to one of the investors. MB is very firm in his bellief that this is way too undervalued and will reach its fair value soon.This is no insider info, just to show how company addresses the Investor concerns and is working hard to have the share its fair value
To: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2007 23:44:17 +0000 Subject: Re: Investors worried about SFNN fair value XXXX: The company is doing what it can by making earnings & telling the world about it. We are all investors in the stock here also and want it to go up. I don't understand why anyone would sell at these levels. Our plan for the year is to visit institutional buyers and road show the company with the mission of gaining long support. I don't believe there is a short cut here nor will the issues you raised be solved overnight. However, so long as a company can continue to earn profits, sooner or later the value will be reflected in the trading price. We are dedicated to that cause. - mb

No stock is guarrantied to go up, so you buy at your own risk. But judging from the news and chart, it will most likely go up rather than down. It closed at .0108, so now is a good time to get in.
