Hydrogen & Alternative Fuel Products:
Quantum-Tecstar is the established world leader in the design, development, manufacturing and commercializing of hydrogen and alternative gaseous fuel management systems for global markets serving motor vehicles, off-road vehicles, stationary engines and high altitude aircraft. Our engineers are have been responsible for the design, development, validation and certification of entire gaseous fuel systems including fuel storage, fuel transfer, fuel metering, electronics and software controls for major OEMs globally, resulting in over 18,000 OEM hydrogen and alternative fuel systems sold worldwide.
Hydrogen Storage
Quantum-Tecstar produces the lightest, advanced composite tanks for on-board storage that is the leading hydrogen storage system technology used by OEMs today. Our proprietary TriShield™ technology can provide in excess of 300 miles (483 km). Extensive experience in developing and validating advanced systems for OEM applications has resulted in an ultra-lightweight advanced composite cylinder design for compressed hydrogen that can hold up to 10,000-psi (70 MPa). In fact, we have the only certified internationally 10,000-psi (70 MPa) hydrogen storage system available in the market since 2002. The ultra-lightweight design of our tank resulting in high hydrogen mass by volume coupled with our patented In-Tank Regulator, improve the range and safety of hydrogen vehicles.
Natural Gas Storage:
Quantum-Tecstar has developed a line of lightweight and cost-effective CNG tanks specifically for bus, truck and automotive applications, where storage weight can influence payload capacity and life cycle costs.
Injectors:
Quantum-Tecstar's gaseous fuel injector is a direct replacement injector designed to work with natural gas, propane and hydrogen in internal combustion engines and fuel cell applications. Existing injector designs derived from gasoline injectors suffer from premature failure due to accelerated wear from dry, low lubricity gaseous fuels, orifice contamination and insufficient flow capacity for today's applications. This multi-port gaseous fuel injector addresses these shortcomings and is the first automotive-type fuel injector capable of handling the high flow rate fuel delivery required by 300+ horsepower V8 engines. A simple design provides freedom from frictional wear and sticking that allows for enhanced durability to over 600 million cycles.
Regulators:
Quantum-Tecstar's pressure regulator product line incorporates advanced and patented technologies designed especially for gaseous fuels. Regulator products include an In-Tank series for natural gas or hydrogen and an In-Line, or rail, series for natural gas, propane and hydrogen fuels. In-Tank Regulators reduce the storage tank pressure from as high as 10,000-psi (70 MPa) down to 150-psi (1 MPa), eliminating the need for high-pressure fuel lines running throughout the vehicle. This results in an inherently safer system, and a competitive advantage for our OEM customers. The In-Line regulator is specially designed for use with our gaseous fuel injector and mounts in the fuel rail, thus providing a packaging advantage.
Electronic Controllers:
Quantum-Tecstar has a broad base of experience in designing OEM automotive engine controllers and mass flow sensors used for gaseous fuel engine management systems from concept to production. Some of the unique inputs and outputs needed for gaseous fuel systems are not supported by OEM powertrain controllers. In an effort to minimize the impact to OEM hardware and software, these systems can handle fuel control and diagnostics by means of a separate controller that can be designed to meet your unique requirements. All circuit boards, assemblies, enclosures and wire harnesses are designed and validated in-house to OEM standards and are based on a variety of processors including:
Motorola 683xx
Motorola 68HC11
Motorola 68HC05
Intel 80Cxx
Microchip PIC16Cxx
Microchip PIC18Cxx
Electronic controllers are capable of doing very little on their own. It's the software that gives them life and purpose. Quantum-Tecstar's team of dedicated software engineers develops sophisticated algorithms and routines that integrate vehicle, powertrain and total systems operation into unique and discreet units. In addition to this, we have complete laboratories for development and testing emissions and performance of your engine or vehicle-making Quantum-Tecstar your one-stop shop.

Die in Irvine / Kalifornien beheimatete Quantum Fuel Systems Technologie (Nasdaq: QTWW) ist eines von bereits 16 in den USA börsennotierten Unternehmen, die an neuen Produkten und Lösungen rund um die Brennstoffzelle arbeiten. Dabei hat sich Quantum speziell auf die Herstellung von Wasserstoffdruckbehältern spezialisiert und in den letzten 7Jahren über 85Mio. USD in die Erforschung und Entwicklung investiert. Mit Erfolg, bereits heute gehört das Unternehmen zum führenden Hersteller solcher Druckbehälter.
Als einer der großen Probleme bei der Entwicklung von wasserstoffbetriebenen Fahrzeugen gilt die Lagerung des Wasserstoffes, das als Gas extrem flüchtig ist und nur eine sehr geringe Dichte aufweist. Um den Wasserstoff an Bord eines Fahrzeuges speichern zu können, ist es jedoch notwendig, eine hohe Energiedichte auf möglichst kleinem Raum zu erzielen, um eine wirtschaftlich vertretbare Reichweite des Fahrzeuges zu erreichen. Die am weitest verbreitete Form Wasserstoff zu speichern, ist die Druckgas-Wasserstoffspeicherung.
HydroGen 3 - Das erste Auto mit einem 70MPa Tank Tankstelle der Zukunft - Wasserstoff statt Benzin und Diesel
Ebenfalls im Oktober erhielt man einen Auftrag vom U.S. Army TARDEC-NAC (National Automotive Center) für die Errichtung einer mobilen Betankungsanlage für Hydrogen Fahrzeuge. Quantum gehört bereits heute zu den ersten Adressen, wenn es um den Aufbau einer möglichen Wasserstoff- Betankungsinfrastruktur geht. Das Unternehmen hat neben der Entwicklung von Wasserstoffdruckbehältern, noch eine ganze Reihe von elektronischen Bauteilen und Steuertechnologien in seinem Programm, die bei Brennstoffzellenfahrzeugen benötigt werden.
Um sich auch in Zukunft seinen technologischen Vorsprung und die Marktführerschaft bei Druckwasserstoffbehältern zu sichern, bedarf es jedoch weiteren Investitionen und mögliche Unternehmenszukäufe. Aus diesem Grund führte Quantum im Oktober 03 eine Kapitalerhöhung (7Mio. Aktien) durch, die zusätzliche 53Mio. USD in die Kasse spülte. Dabei steht das Unternehmen Dank der steigenden Nachfrage und einen hervorragenden Kostenmanagement im Vergleich zur Konkurrenz finanziell hervorragend da. Nicht zuletzt die Zahlen für das 1.Quartal 04 zeigen den deutlichen Fortschritt in Richtung schwarzer Zahlen. Während man im ersten 1.Quartal 03 noch einen Fehlbetrag von 5,1Mio. USD erzielte, schmolz dieser ein Jahr später auf nur noch 1,8Mio. USD (0,08/Aktie) hin. Zeitgleich konnte der Umsatz in den ersten 3Monaten des neuen Geschäftsjahres im Vergleich zum Vorjahreszeitraum um mehr als 70% auf 7,8Mio. USD gesteigert werden. Die wachsende Nachfrage seitens vieler Automobilhersteller, die sich nicht der Ballard Power Allianz angeschlossen haben (u.a. Toyota, GM, Suzuki Motor Corporation) lässt das enorme Potenzial, was in den Produkten von Quantum steckt, nur erahnen. Angesichts dieser positiven Entwicklung ist es durchaus denkbar, das Quantum Fuel Service Technologie bereits in diesem Geschäftsjahr den Sprung in die Gewinnzone beim operativen Geschäft vollziehen kann.

Quantum Fuel Systems: An Alternative Pick
Although it's hardly a sure thing, this little company makes a ground breaking product and has the potential for explosive growth.
November 11, 2004
Those who think hydrogen fuel-cells are a far-fetched way to fuel a car should think again. That's the opinion of Jack Robinson, co-manager of Winslow Green Growth fund, who says that it's almost a surety that fuel-cell powered cars will become a reality in the U.S. and abroad.
A small step toward that goal happened yesterday when GM and Shell Hydrogen opened the first hydrogen dispenser at a retail gasoline station in Northeast Washington, D.C., to service a fleet of six demo fuel-cell vehicles from GM.
Skyrocketing oil and gasoline prices are driving up expectations for alternative energy sources and hydrogen fuel cells, which operate like high-tech batteries, don't need gasoline and are pollution-free. But don't expect to be able to purchase a fuel-cell vehicle before the end of the decade at the earliest.
Robinson named Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide (QTWW) in a recent CBS MarketWatch survey as a small company with a ground breaking product that has the potential for explosive growth.
Quantum Fuel makes fuel-cell storage tanks and ignition systems, not the actual fuel cells. The company also, as a modicum of security for investors, makes natural gas and propane fuel systems for internal combustion engines.
Robinson likes the company for its innovation, management, and solid balance sheet. GM owns 15% of the company.
Although Quantum Fuel is expected to lose 22 cents per share this year, earnings should grow 55% next year. The stock, however, is speculative and likely to be volatile until the company becomes profitable.
Three investment research firms follow the stock, giving it two "strong-buy" ratings and one "buy" rating.

Ardour Capital Upgrades Quantum Fuel Systems to Buy Re-iterates $9.00 Price Target
Ardour Capital Investments, LLC, a New York based Investment Bank and a leading research institution in the Energy Technology/Alternative Power sector, announced today that it has upgraded Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc.(QTWW/NASDAQ, closed at $5.42 on December 10, 2004) to a “Buy” from an “Accumulate”.
New York, NY (PRWEB) December 11, 2004 --
Ardour Capital Investments, LLC, a New York based Investment Bank and a leading research institution in the Energy Technology/Alternative Power sector, announced today that it has upgraded Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. (QTWW/NASDAQ, closed at $5.42 on December 10, 2004) to a “Buy” from an “Accumulate”. The rating change comes on the heels of QTWW’s 2Q05 earnings report released yesterday after the market close. Although the Company reported lower than expected revenues for the quarter, the second half of FY05 should prove to be positive.
According to Analyst Walter Nasdeo, “The positives for the second half of FY05 include, QTWW expects to reach cash flow breakeven; the Company currently has $14 million in backlog; and QTWW’s recent acquisition of Starcraft Corporation (STCR/NASDAQ) should boost OEM contracts from major automobile manufacturers.” Nasdeo went on to state, “we also expect this acquisition will help diversify the Company’s operations, and increase production efficiencies.” Taking into consideration QTWW’s position going forward, Nasdeo believes that Quantum’s stock has been oversold, and is a clear buying opportunity at these price levels.

Bin übrigens schon in dem Wert investiert. Vor einigen Tagen erstand ich da einige in den USA - eine Kleinigkeit zu früh, aber sei es drumm. Verließ die reine Leere der Stop-Buy-Order und verließ mich stattdessen auf meine Elliott-Chartlesetechniken. Habe dann - Übermut kommt vor dem Fall - mich um eine Unterwelle verzählt; wie das denn so ist mit den Wellen...
Die Jungs von Ardour Capital (siehe Posting oben) haben sich da am 11. Dezember letzten Jahres aber noch ganz anders verhauen. Sie haben sich um satte 2 Jahre beim Timing geirrt - sollte solchen Kameraden an sich nicht passieren. Wenngleich deren Langfrist-Kursziel von 9$ imo noch sehr konservativ ist.
Im Vergleich liege ich da mit meinen paar Tagen Abweichung noch ganz ordentlich - vorausgesetzt es kommt jetzt wirklich so, wie ich das mir zusammenreime.
Wie das so ist mit den Prognosen...
Aber im Ernst: Der Chart ist - langfristig gesehen - bullisch.
Die Company hat mir an sich etwas zu viele Verluste gemacht in letzter Zeit, aber die großen Zeichen an der Wand im allgemeinen und im besonderen die nun in den USA bald rechtskräftig werdenden Steuervorteile für dererlei Produkte sowie der im Grunde optimistische Managementausblick lassen einen Turn-Around doch sehr wahrscheinlich werden. Die sehr großen Handelsvolumina am 18. und 19. August bedeuten, dass die Skeptiker (wohl auch per Stop-Loss) nun so allmählich rausgegangen sind (seit Anfang 2004 wurde ihre Frustrationsfähigkeit ja doch arg in Anspruch genommen) und die bullischen Leute sich zunehmend eindecken.
Vermute in den nächsten Tagen einen scharfen Turn nach oben, angestachelt durch die ganzen Stop-Buy-Orders, die da nun über dem aktuellen Kurs kreisen dürften. Vorsichtige Anleger machen das ja auch so: Auf einen Turn-Around immer nur mit Stop-Buy Orders spekulieren, auch "On-Stop-Orders" genannt. Ich erwarte derzeit, dass mit diesem Turn in den nächsten Tagen die langfristige Trendwende nach oben vollzogen wird.
Wenn es wirklich so kommt, werde ich die bestehende Position (an der NASDAQ gekauft wegen Liquidität) ausbauen und nachkaufen. Falls nicht, habe ich mir schon einen Stop-Loss-Kurs überlegt.
Ich möchte wetten, dass die Jung svon diesem MLIIF NEW ENERGY FUND es ähnlich machen: Schon mal etwas einsteigen, aber erst bei Bestätigung den Depotanteil hochfahren.

Quantum typically announces its financial results approximately five weeks after the close of the first, second and third fiscal quarters and about eight weeks after the close of its fiscal year.
Quantum's fiscal year: May 1st through April 30th.
Next Earnings Date: 9/28/2005
Das dürfte - so wie es aussieht - die "Wendemarke" werden. Wir könnten also tatsächlich noch die Zone der beiden roten Linien im unteren Chart erreichen.
Bislang hatte das Unternehmen steigende Verluste gemeldet, daher der Kursverlust. Wenn das jetzt nach den anstehenden Quartalszahlen aufhört, dann dürften die Leute einsteigen wollen.
Unten eine alternative Zählung:

Da hat Quantum - wie eine ganze Reihe von Brennstoffzellenherstellern und anderer Vertreter der Branche "NewEnergy" - ja einen ganz schönen Satz nach oben gemacht - und das ganz ohne Nachrichten aus dem Unternehmen selbst.
Katrina + der Ölpreis + die Berichterstattung in den vielen geneigten Anlegermedien über New Energy haben hier wohl eine Menge Liquidität in das Segment getrieben, alle in der Hoffnung, am Wirbelsturm zu verdienen.
Am Samstag noch war ich (wiederum) der Meinung gewesen, es geht bis Ende September abwärts mit Quantum, aber jetzt sind da einige Chartmarken im Sturm erobert worden, die das Bild verändern. Offenbar war die letzte Abwärtsbewegung seit Juni 05 ein ZigZag gewesen, das nun beendet worden ist, es läuft offenbar eine Welle 3 rauf. Mit dem Quantum-Chart hatte ich Elliott-mäßig meine Mühe gehabt, war imo nicht eindeutig lesbar. Mein Einstieg mit Quantum im TBB-Spieldepot in der Größenordnung war kurzfristig gesehen Glück/mutig gewesen, das hätte auch ins Auge gehen können - ohne Katrina. Ein recht großer US-Fond im Bereich "New Energy", dessen Top-Positionen ich ab und an mal checke, hatte bereits vor dem Wirbelsturm die Brennstoffzellenhersteller übergewichtet, darunter auch Quantum. Können oder einfach nur Glück? Jedenfalls dürften solche Fonds in den USA wohl demnächst Mittelzuflüsse erhalten, was diesem noch sehr kleinen Aktiensegment helfen würde.
Worst Case (falls das obere Bollinger-Band im Tageschart nicht nach oben gedreht werden kann) könnte jetzt allenfalls ein seitlich-abwärts gerichtetes korrektives Gedaddel kommen auf Sicht von wenigen Monaten, spätestens dann käme imo der Turn-around. Der Spike gestern hat den denkbaren Abwärtswinkel im Tageschart (dieses worst-case-Szenarios) nach oben gehoben, so viel kann da jetzt nicht mehr passieren.
Wer noch nicht drin ist, der kann diesen Turn nach oben im Bollinger-Band in den nächsten wenigen Tagen noch abwarten - da muss jetzt "follow-through" kommen, keine Erschlaffung. Ich bin aber zuversichtlich, dass der "follow-through" kommen wird. Warum am Dienstag in dieser psychologischen USA-Situation kaufen und am Mittwoch-Freitag verkaufen? Gibt imo keinen Sinn. Das sollte weiter nach oben gehen.
Langfristig billige ich Quantum ohnehin mehr als eine Kursverdopplung in den nächsten 12 Monaten zu, es liegt einfach voll im Trend der Regierung Bush und der USA-Energiepolitik. Über governmental contracts werden die das Baby schon hätscheln, den Rest machen Großunternehmen, die ein medienwirksames (und steuerbegünstigtes) Pilotprojekt wollen....was genau die oberflächliche Anlegermassenmeinung sein dürfte.
Denn bislang macht Quantum Verluste: Objektiv gesehen waren die letzten Zahlen eine große Enttäuschung; ein konservativer Anleger würden einen großen Bogen um so ein Unternehmen machen! Das Problem eines solchen Anlegers: Die Unternehmen, die bislang Gewinne aufwiesen, sind auch schon sehr stark gelaufen. Es bleibt dort ebenfalls Spekulation, wieviel Luft nach oben da noch bleibt. Und jetzt bei der Korrektur der großen Indices - da könnten schon eine Menge Leute auf den Gedanken kommen, umzuschichten - z. B. auf dieses "New-Energy-Thing", das jetzt immer öfter in den Wirtschaftsmedien genannt wird. Da die Unternehmen klein sind reichen bereits Beimischungsbeträge aus, um dort eine ansehnliche Rally auszulösen. Und genau das sehen wir imo derzeit.
Wer weiß, evtl. sehen die Quartalszahlen Ende September für Quantum ja wirklich besser aus. Dann würde der Run erst richtig losgehen, weil dann die konservativeren Anleger ein Stück Papier haben, mit dem sie ihre Angst bedecken könnten! Andererseits - falls die September-Zahlen "im Trend" liegen sollten, also wieder deutliche oder gar gestiegene Verluste, dann würde dieser Rally wohl der Teppich unter den Füßen weggezogen werden: Korrektur!
Es kommt halt darauf an, welchen Zeithorizont man will: Wer das Ding einfach mal liegen lassen kann trotz erheblicher Schwankungen, der wird imo in 12 Monaten belohnt werden. Wer hingegen viel kurzfristiger denkt, der sollte vor den Quartalszahlen ins Cash gehen, sofern nicht andere Quartalsberichte von Konkurrenten davor herauskommen und einen Turn nach oben anzeigen. Da wird man gar nicht lange recherchieren müssen, das wird einem der Chart unschwer vorher schon verraten. Im Detail kann man das in meinem Thread zu "Brennstoffzellen" hier im Forum verfolgen:
http://www.traderboersenboard.de/for...threadid=10444
Letzteres war für mich der Grund gewesen, diese Chartsammlung dort überhaupt zu erstellen. Das wird sicherlich noch interessant!

Quantum Technologies Reports Fiscal 2006 First Quarter Financial Results
IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 8
Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. , a leading designer, manufacturer and integrator of packaged fuel systems and accessories for specialty vehicles and applications including hydrogen fuel cell, hybrid, and alternative fuel vehicles, today reported results for its fiscal 2006 first quarter ended July 31, 2005. Conference call information is provided below.
Net revenue reached $47.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to $6.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. This increase in overall revenue is a result of the inclusion of Tecstar Automotive Group's operations, which contributed $43.0 million to consolidated revenues in the first quarter.
The Company's net loss increased $5.7 million from $2.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $8.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 mainly due to increased operating losses incurred in the Quantum Fuel Systems segment as a result of lower product sales and contract revenues, the addition of Tecstar Automotive Group operations which had an operating loss of $1.3 million, and a $1.2 million increase in corporate expenses.
Quantum Fuel Systems operating segment revenues during the quarter were $4.4 million, representing a 31% decrease over the prior year's first quarter, which was $6.4 million. This decrease is primarily due to lower sales of hydrogen fuel metering and fuel storage systems for fuel cell vehicle applications. The decrease is also attributable to lower contract revenue, which was a result of increased cost-to-complete estimates of certain customer funded programs, which impacted the contract revenue recognized during the period based on a percentage completion revenue recognition policy.
Tecstar Automotive Group operating segment revenues during the quarter were $43.0 million, representing an approximate 5% increase on a pro forma basis compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Product sales for the Tecstar Automotive Group totaled $41.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, consisting of $23.5 million in second-stage automotive manufacturing revenues, $15.5 million in automotive OEM accessory parts revenues, and other product sales of $2.2 million. Cost of product sales for the Tecstar Automotive Group was $37.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Contract revenue for the Tecstar Automotive Group was $1.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
Alan P. Niedzwiecki, President and CEO, stated, "Although we reported significant revenue growth during the first quarter due to the Tecstar acquisition, we did experience a shortfall in development program revenue. The costs of revenues, particularly on the development programs, were higher than expected and this impacted our overall operating results. The activity on hydrogen-related development programs remains strong and we are optimistic that these programs will result in increased hydrogen fuel system product sales during the second half of fiscal 2006, compared to the first half of fiscal 2006."
Mr. Niedzwiecki added, "We continue our efforts to integrate the two businesses and have made meaningful strides, but also recognize that we need to continue to focus on reducing our operating expenses and cost structure. In terms of business development activities, we believe that we are developing valuable relationships with new OEMs in both our hydrogen and mainstream automotive segments that will lead to new business opportunities. Furthermore, we see the rising price of oil as a major driving factor in our alternative fuels and fuel cell vehicle business, and we believe the demand for our products will increase both domestically and internationally."

Das Unternehmen macht einfach zu viele Verluste, die Kosten sind eindeutig nicht im Griff. Solange dort nicht eine Umkehr konkret in den Zahlen sichtbar wird, solange wird man diesen Wert nur beobachten können, haben sollte man ihn nicht. Der nächste Quartalsbericht wird wohl so im Bereich Dezember/Januar herauskommen. Im Vorfeld kann evtl. bereits der Boden beobachtet werden, falls technische u. wirtschaftliche Indikatoren u. News einen Turn vermuten lassen.

1,40 $ wurden ganz kurz erreicht. Ob's das nun war? Am 25.01 könnte das Wellenlow gewesen sein.
