Larry Oakley's Bold Ventures

Posted 12/7/2008

Airborne Security & Protective Services Inc. (Other OTC: ASPV)

I just began investigating this emerging growth situation. When I find a small-cap company that is growing its revenue & profit, I like to investigate it. In this case, I interviewed CEO Jerry Deutsch & am impressed with its growth. It reported revenues for the first nine months of 2008 at $1,300,000. That surpassed total revenue for 2007 which was $1,200,000. In addition, I understand that 2008 annualized revenues are on pace to reach or exceed $2,000,000, a projected year-over-year increase exceeding 65%.

What ASPV Does

ASPV, based in Miami, provides professional armed & unarmed security services to such commercial & residential properties as airports, airlines, banks, manufacturers, national retail stores, shopping centers, construction sites, gated communities, home owner associations, property management companies, industrial & manufacturing properties, shopping centers, warehouse & storage facilities, medical centers & hospitals, hotels & resorts, transportation facilities & depots, auto dealerships, banks & jewelry stores, gated communities, & luxury residential high rise buildings. It provides security for such special events as conferences, conventions, concerts, sporting events, etc. --- especially those with VIP's (sports, media, business, trade, & political leaders), that require professional planning & unique security measures. Its professionals evaluate the special event, identify vulnerabilities, & provide counter measures to ensure participant & dignitary security.

The sizzle in this situation is ASPV’s breadth of capability, as well as its expansion into allied fields, one of which is electronic surveillance, an extremely high demand segment.

Actually, ASPV specializes in providing advanced security services featuring the most advanced technology available to the industry. Its security experts can provide electronic security audits, develop electronic security countermeasures, advanced monitoring systems, & other security features that use advanced technology to enhance security in such areas as Crime Prevention/Threat Assessments --- Facility Security (commercial & residential) --- Diplomatic/VIP Security --- Private Investigations --- Event Security --- & Crisis/Emergency Security Management.

There are many properties that have security cameras that operate 24/7, but very few of those systems are watched much of the time, so are not very effective. ASPV is changing that. For example, its electronic installations are so effective that they can even record the license plate numbers of vehicles that are traveling at 60 miles per hour.

In gated communities & other similar situations, one of the things they do that clients appreciate is electronically watch the guards, a service that appears to be rather unique to them.

Jerry Deutsch says: "In the markets that we serve, we have seen, & are continuing to see an increasing demand for the full spectrum of our security services. Our reputation for both competitive prices & superior skilled personnel is helping us to gain new clients in what for many businesses is a difficult economic climate."

ASPV’s Reputation

ASPV has over 30 years experience in the field of private contract security. It is the recipient of the prestigious Five Star Award for performance & integrity given by the National Association of Security Officers. Its executive team prides itself on providing professional armed & unarmed security service to a range of commercial & residential properties & companies (its State of Florida License is B2600095). It recently announced that it will become a voluntary fully reporting Pink Sheet company, posting its quarterly & annual financial results. Historic & third quarter 2008 financial results, and an initial disclosure statement, have already been posted at pinksheets.com.

My Opinion

I like what I see so far, & suggest that you look into this bold venture. As of 9/16/2008, the reverse merger that brought the company public changed its symbol to ASPV. At that time, Jerry Deutsch said: "The Airborne security team is a force to be reckoned with, & competition has laid the ground work for our success. When it comes to our clients there is no such thing as second best. We are out there constantly conceptualizing, strategizing, & implementing the most effective & cost efficient security programs for our clients. Today we need drastic steps for troubled times, as our country is experiencing uncertainty in so many major issues, & as this nation faces a bleak economic outlook. The need for security is greater then ever. It is for this reason that Airborne has plans of expanding to every sector of the security industry."

Think about it --- ever since 9/11, the security market has experienced massive growth. Terrorism, globalization, industrial espionage, & the general rise of crime as well as the ever-increasing need for security at events & social gatherings have created an excellent growth opportunity for security companies.

So far, the revenue has been generated in the Miami area. I suspect that ASPV will expand into other areas, probably via offering franchise opportunities, since it has already demonstrated its growth capability.

My comments in this column are strictly my personal opinion. At times, I will include forward-looking information as that term is defined in the Private Security Reform Act of 1995. Such information & the related company are subject to many risks & uncertainties. There can be no assurance that actual results, business conditions, business developments, losses & contingencies, local & foreign factors, & other matters will not differ materially from those suggested in any of my forward-looking statements. Such differences are the result of all sorts of factors (some examples: market conditions, competition, advances in technology, acquisitions, mergers, potential litigation, personnel changes, market changes, capital availability, etc., etc.).

Do not run out & buy a stock just because I am enthusiastic about the situation. Call the company before you buy -- satisfy yourself first. I always include a phone number for that purpose. My purpose in this column is to respond to your request for my personal opinion. You have the responsibility of making your own investment decisions. Do not give up that responsibility.

My editorial coverage has always been, is now, and always will be without charge. That includes what I write in Conservative Speculator, and what I write in "Larry Oakley's Opinion, " "Larry Oakley's Stock Pick," "Larry Oakley's Comment," & "Larry Oakley's Bold Ventures" columns. It also includes what I write in such venues as articles submitted to other publications, interviews on radio & television, and at the investment seminars and conferences at which I am a featured speaker. By doing all my editorial work free of charge, I have the advantage of writing about what companies I particularly like. There are occasions when I will write about a company that is a paying participant on WallStreetCorner -- that's because I like the company. I always make it clear to them that editorial coverage is free and is not a part of the fee they pay to have their Profile researched, prepared, & posted at WallStreetCorner.
