Since the end of last year there have been some exceptional performances by many of these micro-caps, in a very tough market.


JIN up 350%
MNF up 300%
COO up 300%
CAJ up 100%
ISS up 70%

All these companies now have market caps greater than $20m and no longer make the updated list in the previous post above.


I truely believe there are some tremendous opportunities in this space, that will prosper irrespective of general market conditions.

Thanks for this list SF, that gives me a lot of companies to work my way through.

Also, are you able to share how you came up with the list? Is there a website available for the average joe?

Hi Corp, this is from CapitalIQ ( https://www.capitaliq.com/home.aspx ) however unfortunately it is subscription based.
It is useful in that there is literally hundreds of criteria (financial and non-financial) that you can screen by.
Í am happy to run some screens for you if you would like.

Here's a freebie that can do a few things: http://asxiq.com/fundamentals/fundMainScreener.php

Not all the screens are working 100% though, so you'll have difficulty getting same results as Steve's search from it, but prices seem to be reasonably up to date. I've found it useful as a starter when trying to find shares from scratch. Click around the site and you find a goldmine of data.

Looks like PEH will finally make it on the list, with revenue of $10.6m for 2012 - that's presuming they can manage another marginal profit. New CEO and Chairman this year, so will be interesting to see if they can generate growth while containing costs, but moving fairly slowly, so I don't see any hurry to buy them - maybe next year.

[Lizard]

Longreach Group (LRG) not quite sneaking in there this year, with revenues at $9.4m, but say they will produce a 5% NPBT profit margin ($300k NPAT?). Market cap $4.4m at 11cps.

Positive forecasts, but LRG record a bit patchy and very long-winded turnaround since Nightingale Partners took it on. However, looks possible for a trade at some stage - maybe in 6-12 months time.

AZV - Azure Healthcare another one to add to the watchlist, Steve. Emerged from TSH after their main trading business went into liquidation. I think from memory this was the secondary business and my vague impression only has been that it is sound. Market cap $4.4m (at 2.6cps - nothing on offer till 3.5cps though). Revenue $8.7m at HY and just reported record sales in April-June. Were forecasting a loss of $0.4-$0.8m back in April, but seem to have turned that around to a $0.6-$0.8m profit, although that includes gains from liquidation.
