NGNM – Solid Third Quarter Results
For all you happy CLRT investors, I still think everyone should give a long hard look at NGNM, and listen to the most recent third quarter conference call.
The company just reported solid third quarter results, with revenue growth of 19% YoY and volume growth of 29% YoY. I think management did a great job on the conference call and seem to be making all of the right moves. With much of the heavy lifting now behind the company, business should begin to improve each quarter going forward, and probably one of the reasons why management was comfortable enough to provide 2011 estimates. NGNM now expects 2011 revenues to be in the range of $41-45 million, which would imply a 25-30% increase in sales next year, and an increase from the 15-18% expected revenue growth in 2010.
Clearly, the business has bottomed and the business model has reached critical mass.
NGNM at $1.10 is way undervalued and great opportunity for any small-cap investor, and I still believe NGNM is going to be a big winner, even more than ever, after listening to the third quarter conference call.

"CLRT NEWS" New Data Indicate Effectiveness of Clarient's Pulmotax(TM) Test for Lung Cancer
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/new-data-indicate-effectiveness-of-clarients-pulmotaxtm-test-for-lung-cancer-91686439.html
Pulmotax Identifies Patients Who Respond Positively to Chemotherapy
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., April 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Clarient, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLRT), a premier technology and services resource for pathologists, oncologists and the pharmaceutical industry, today announced that data from a new study suggest that the Clarient Insight® Dx Pulmotax™ assay may effectively predict which lung cancer patients will respond favorably to chemotherapy. The study, titled "TLE3 expression is predictive of response to chemotherapy in NSCLC," included 368 samples from carcinoma patients. The majority of advanced-stage patients who were treated with chemotherapy received a treatment regimen containing a taxane class agent.
Pulmotax is a single antibody immunohistochemistry test created to detect the expression of TLE3 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Prior data have linked TLE3 expression specifically to response to taxane therapy in breast and ovarian carcinoma patients. The study was presented yesterday at the annual meeting of the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) in Washington, D.C. by Douglas T. Ross, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Scientific O

Clarient Launches New Lung Cancer Test PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
ALISO VIEJO, Calif. , Feb. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Clarient, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLRT), a premier technology and services resource for pathologists, oncologists and the pharmaceutical industry, today announced the commercial launch of a new lung cancer test, Clarient Insight® Dx Pulmotype® Test, that helps physicians classify specific types of lung cancer to identify which therapies may be most effective. The new test has been clinically validated to use in the sub-classification of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for approximately 85 percent of the more than 200,000 lung cancer cases diagnosed each year.
"Pulmotype provides pathologists with a valuable new tool to help their oncologist clients understand which patients are eligible for a number of new therapies now available for the treatment of NSCLC," said Chief Executive Officer Ron Andrews . "Its ability to accurately sub-classify lung cancer will enable physicians to make much more informed and effective therapy decisions. We have built a very strong breast cancer franchise and established Clarient as the 'go-to' laboratory for complex breast cancer testing. Pulmotype allows us to offer a similar compelling reason for pathologists and oncologists faced with critical decisions in lung cancer to send the primary tumor samples to Clarient .  Having the lung cancer sample in our hands at the beginning of the diagnostic process allows us to assist the pathologist and the oncologist throughout the patient care process by delivering information on additional molecular markers, such as EGFR mutation and KRAS."
The Pulmotype test consists of a panel of biomarkers that allows physicians to classify NSCLC into adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma subtypes, which are key distinctions in choosing the most effective therapy. Newly developed targeted therapies can be very effective but can also be very toxic depending on the patient and his or her disease characteristics.
"Given the types of therapies on the market today, the kind of information generated from a panel like Pulmotype can make a big difference in how a patient is treated," said Ken Bloom , M.D., Chief Medical Officer for Clarient . "The correct pathology assessment is essential for therapeutic decision making, given the powerful new drugs currently on the market to treat lung cancer, such as Avastin® and Alimta®. The use of these therapies is predicated on the histologic differentiation of the cancer into categories such as non-squamous NSCLC cancer or squamous NSCLC, which are classifications that Pulmotype can help provide. Furthermore, the power to identify patients with adenocarcinomas in non-small cell lung cancers also promotes finding patients that also harbor EGFR mutations, which have been shown to predict response to a number of tyrosine kinase inhibitors.  We believe this test will quickly demonstrate its value as a critically important tool in the assessment of lung cancer."
Clarient Insight Dx Pulmotype is the first commercial test launched following the Company's recent acquisition of Applied Genomics Inc. (AGI). AGI developed Pulmotype and recently validated the test with a clinical study cohort of more than 1,000 patients. The peer-reviewed results were published in the August 2009 edition of Modern Pathology.  A link to that study can be accessed at www.clarientinc.com/pulmotype.
Ron Andrews continued, "The combination of Pulmotype and EGFR should differentiate Clarient from its competitors and could become a key driver of revenue growth. Our goal is to be the first place a pathologist goes after diagnosing NSCLC. Having a primary diagnostic test like Pulmotype on our menu should help us capture a growing number of lung cancer tumor specimens for initial testing. In addition, Pulmotype can identify the cancers that will benefit from knowing the EGFR mutation status, which should strengthen our ability to gain a greater share of the fast-growing EGFR mutation test market. The validation and launch of Pulmotype within eight weeks of closing the AGI acquisition is a testimony to Clarient 's ability to rapidly integrate technology into its lab operation and commercialize a new complex cancer diagnostic." ÂÂ
About Clarient Insight® Dx Pulmotype® Test
Clarient Insight Dx Pulmotype test is a five antibody immunohistochemistry (IHC) test that can be used to aid in the histological distinction between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma in NSCLC tumor specimens. The histologic classification of non-small cell lung tumors has gained clinical relevance because newly developed targeted therapies show different clinical effectiveness or toxicity dependent upon the histology of the tumor. There is currently no other widely accepted molecular-based tool to help distinguish the different histological types.
The Pulmotype test was developed with a 551 patient surgical specimen lung carcinoma retrospective cohort and was validated on three independent cohorts in more than 1,000 clinical cases. Pulmotype can play an immediate role for pathologists in complementing the morphological assessment of lung types resulting in a more accurate diagnosis and more informed therapeutic decisions.

Artesian Direct may get infusion of $5 million
Tom Sowa - Staff writer
Liberty Lake-based Artesian Direct announced Tuesday that a Midwest investment group is providing up to $5 million in financing to help the company expand its business operations.
The money is coming in two chunks, said Artesian Direct CEO Cris Hollingsworth.
A "significant amount of money" has been given to Artesian Direct now. The rest will be invested as the company reaches target figures for sales and revenue, he said.
Artesian Direct distributes a set of home and business Internet appliances that give customers simple, one-box delivery of information and video entertainment services. Those devices can be used for video on demand or high-definition digital TV.
In return for the investment, the Midwest company is acquiring equity in Artesian Direct, a privately held company. Hollingsworth did not disclose what share the investors acquired.
The investment means Artesian Direct "can get much more aggressive in expanding our operations," said Hollingsworth. He anticipates doubling the number of employees by the end of the year, from about 18 now to around 40.
Disclosure of the investment group's name will follow a review of the agreement by attorneys and Securities and Exchange Commission officials.
"The main concern expressed to us by our own legal counsel is to make sure there are no conflicts of interest," said Hollingsworth.
He said the investment group has significant holdings in several major publicly traded companies.
Artesian also announced plans to form a strategic partnership with Celerity Systems, an East Coast company also distributing its own line of high-end set-top boxes and Internet appliances.
Under a plan that won't be finalized until late August, Artesian Direct will purchase shares in Celerity, based in Knoxville, Tenn.
In return, Artesian Direct gets exclusive rights to sell Celerity products in some areas of the Northwest, plus preferential pricing on those devices.

CELERITY SYSTEMS INC - Celerity Systems and AIT Announce Digital Content Partnership For Schools
Celerity Systems, Inc. and The Agency for Instructional Technology (AIT) announced that they will work together to bring AIT's extensive instructional video library to schools throughout the US and Canada who install Digital Education Systems from Celerity.
This innovative partnership combines the worlds leading collection of standards correlated instructional video programs with a cutting edge on-demand distribution system. The agreement makes possible the potential for significant educational gains for teachers using the system and its resources in their classrooms. The parties will immediately begin the process of encoding this content to the Motion Pictures Experts Group (MPEG) 2 standard and implementing pricing, marketing, distribution and installation programs. The first use of this content is expected to be in systems now being installed in Ohio.
"We are excited to have AIT's outstanding library of content available in digital form for schools throughout North America," said Kenneth Van Meter, President and CEO of Celerity. "AIT has one of the most comprehensive collections of media for education in the world, and covering a wide array of subjects. By making this material available in digital form, it may greatly expand its reach and certainly its frequency and effectiveness of use. A key to the value of Digital Education Systems is quality content, and AIT is a leader in that field."
"We have been looking at the digital market for educational content for some time", said Dr. Michael Sullivan, Executive Director of AIT. "Now that companies such as Celerity are actually installing robust digital education systems in schools, it is time for AIT and all educational content owners to get their materials into this new format which offers much greater flexibility and potentially more economical and effective resources to students and staff alike. We also hope, as part of our partnership, to encourage other content owners to digitally encode their content, and potentially assist such content owners in pricing, packaging, marketing and delivering those products. We think we are all about to take the next big step in making education more interesting, more effective, and more accountable for results, and we are very pleased to be doing so with Celerity. We are impressed with their products, especially their T 6000 Digital Set Top Box, and are excited at the impact we can have together."
AIT is a nonprofit U.S./Canadian education agency with headquarters in Bloomington, Indiana. AIT was established in 1962 to foster learning by developing, acquiring, and distributing quality electronic technology-based resources. Since then, AIT has pioneered both the design and application of a variety of new classroom technologies and programs. AIT has created a consortium model for project development that has been a key factor in AIT's growth and success. It brings together U.S. state and Canadian provincial agencies to fund and develop a wide range of education programming. This process allows AIT to create large innovative series that could not be funded by traditional means. AIT projects also receive support from federal and private institutions, corporate sponsors, and other partners. AIT has worked cooperatively with all these groups to develop more than thirty-five major curriculum series in twenty-five years. AIT currently offers more than 160 learning resource products, including DVD, CD-ROM, videotape, computer software, interactive videodiscs, print materials and Internet. Nearly 2,400 individual titles are available in these curriculum packages for pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and adult learners. These resources support core instruction plus tech-prep and vocational education, career development, early childhood, guidance and mental health, and professional development for teachers and administrators. AIT programming represents 40 percent of the National Instructional Satellite Service schedule which is broadcast to U.S. K-12 classrooms. AIT's series are used on six continents, reaching nearly 34 million students in North American classrooms each year via broadcast. Leadership activities include sponsorship of national conferences and TECHNOS Press, the Agency's publishing entity. Publications include TECHNOS: Quarterly for Education and Technology, Taming the Beast: Choice & Control in the Electronic Jungle by Jason Ohler, and other original books written by AIT Distinguished Fellows.

The Future of Interactive TV is Everything on Demand
Apr. 27, 2001 --
nCUBE President, Michael J. Pohl, offered his vision of the interactive TV market at NAB 2001's "Interactive Lifestyles - Personalizing the Net" Super Session. In his remarks at the "Interactive Television: Technology in Search of a Market" session, Pohl asserted "the future of streaming media lies with personalizing the consumer's TV experience."
nCUBE has been involved in the development of interactive TV technology since 1993. Pohl has overseen the company's growth as a leader in providing streaming media solutions for all broadband networks, including DSL, IP and cable. The company announced earlier at NAB the largest video on demand deployment in the world to date with It's TV, a Korean-based interactive TV service provider.
"The notion that we are about to witness the death of TV as we know it is nonsense," said Pohl. "Rather, it's a natural extension of the multichannel video business. The difference is that in the future viewers will be able to create their own program lineups."
Pohl emphasized that "everything on demand," or "Demand TV" is "not about every exotic interactive TV feature that anyone can dream up. It's not a refrigerator telling the TV to order a frozen pizza; it's not even solely entertainment, because personal learning and educational content will play an important role."
"Streaming makes possible the true personalization of the TV experience," said Pohl. "It's not only about time shifting among a limited menu of that day's or week's offering by the networks, but expanding the menu itself to embrace everything rights holders choose to make available."
