It sounds hard to believe, but one segment of this $73 billion per year
industry is growing at an enormous rate.
Revenues of $5.6 billion are expected in this year alone…and by the
year 2009, annual revenues are expected to more than
triple – to the tune of $18 billion per year!
And there is one small company that – at this very moment – has a
technology that gives them an enormous advantage over the competition –
including some of the largest, most successful companies on the
planet!
This advantage should propel shares of this company to rapid growth –
and early investors could realize the same type of windfall that was
produced by several other companies in this very same market. For
example…
- Company X – up 51% in one month after its IPO…
- Company Y – up 285% in just 25 months…
- And Company Z – up an astounding 21,150% in 52 months!
So just what is this $73 billion per year industry that has produced so
many extraordinary winners?
It’s the gaming industry – and whether you’re a gambler or not – you
can’t ignore this fact: the gaming industry is an enormous one…and it has
produced some of the best investment opportunities of the past three
years.
Those companies I mentioned above? “Company X” is Party Poker.com,
which is currently valued at around $12 billion. “Company Y” is Ameristar
Casinos…and “Company Z” is Alliance Gaming, which would have turned a
$10,000 investment into $221,500 – nearly a quarter of a million dollars –
in just 52 months!
The Revolutionary Technology that Gives Fortuna Gaming
Corp. an Enormous Advantage in this Explosive Industry
As I mentioned earlier, the gaming industry is enormous – to the tune
of $73 billion per year.
But the online market is the fastest-growing sector of the gaming
industry, with revenues of $5.6 billion expected this year. And that
figure is expected to more than triple to $18 million by 2009.
And, of course, the hottest thing in all of gambling today is poker.
On television, celebrity, amateur and professional Texas Hold ‘em
tournaments are broadcast nearly round the clock.
And nowhere is the poker craze more prevalent or faster growing than on
the Internet.
At peak hours, there are between 75,000 and 150,000 players logged into
the top Internet poker systems.
Over the past two years, wagers at online poker rooms have doubled
every three months – and now average $150 million per day.
In fact, at the current rate of growth, online poker wagers will reach
an eye-popping $1 billion per day within the next two years.
Of course, the major gaming companies – like Party Poker and others –
are already well-established marketers of online poker games, which
players access using their PCs and Internet connections.
But the tiny company we’re buying today – Fortuna Gaming Corp.
(FGAM.OB) – is poised to dominate a niche of online poker that the
established giants haven’t yet touched.
That niche is mobile gaming – playing online poker on the one computing
device most consumers carry with them 24/7: their cell phones!
Mobile gaming explosion! There are two ways to
play online poker: free or fee.
In
electronic and online gambling, the big growth is coming from mobile
gaming – playing games on mobile phones, PDAs, laptops, and other mobile
devices.
According to Jupiter Research, the total value of the global mobile
games market will reach $5.6 billion this year.
By 2009, mobile gaming services in the U.S. are expected to generate
$1.8 billion annually from 78.6 million wireless subscribers, according to
Mobile Consumer Data and Multimedia Services.
People love gaming on their mobile systems so much, they do it even
while they are in a real casino – and Nevada recently became the first
state making it legal to gamble on hand-held devices at casinos and
resorts.
What are these mobile phone owners playing? Anything and everything …
sports games, fantasy games, action games, adventure games, combat games,
racing games.
Now Fortuna is going to bring today's most popular, fastest-growing
game – Texas Holdem – to the mobile gaming marketplace.
In the United States, there are 187 million mobile phone subscribers --
and 19 million PDA users.
And starting later this year, there will be ONE place where those 206
million mobile phone and PDA users will want to play online poker on their
mobile devices: Fortuna Gaming. ![[Quote: E-Commerce Times]](FGAM online_files/ecommerce-times.gif)
Spending $200 to make $626
Those who play "free poker" can access the poker software online. But
they're not playing with money, and so their bets aren't real: they don't
win or lose a dime.
Fortuna's experienced management team understands that the purpose of
marketing in the online gaming industry is to get as many people as
possible to try the online gaming system by playing for free.
Why? Because experience shows that one out of five users who play an
online gaming system for free converts to paid play … and that's where
fortunes are made.
Fortuna management is well-versed in marketing online gaming – and,
based on past results, they anticipate spending half a million dollars
a month -- $6 million a year -- on marketing to generate 150,000
total paid players … as shown in the chart below.
Fortuna's "rake," or commission, on the gambling that takes place on
its system will be 3% to 5% of each pot.
In some of the online games, the rate of play may exceed 100 hands per
hour … and at peak hours, there can be hundreds of games in progress
simultaneously.
This plan puts Fortuna on the fast track for
significant growth
Of the hundreds of thousands of gamers who try Fortuna's Internet and
mobile poker system for free, the company expects 20% to convert to paid
players … resulting in a cost to acquire a paying player (customer) of
$200 each.
During the first year of operation, average annual revenue per paid
player is forecast at $367.
As the chart above shows, revenue per paid player increases each year …
as players spend more and more time online playing poker.
Within 5 years, annual revenue is projected to grow more than
eightfold, from $11 million to $94 million (see graph below).
By year five, average annual revenue per paid player is $626, more than
triple the cost of acquiring new customers.

745% profits within 5 years
So, let's see
how this marketing plan is going to make Fortuna and its shareholders
wealthy.
If Fortuna spends half a million dollars a month, they project 30,000
paid players and $11 million in revenues for year one – growing to 150,000
paid players and $94 million in revenue within 5 years.
That represents a 745% increase in gross revenues, with no increase in
their major expense area – marketing -- which is forecast to remain
constant.
The stock today is about $1.50 a share, with 66.8 million shares
outstanding – about 2 million of which are owned by senior management.
Assuming share price increases proportional to revenues, and a constant
P/E, this would give us a share price of $12.80 by 2010.
That means if you bought 1,000 shares of Fortuna today, your initial
investment of $15,000 would grow to $128,181 -- giving you a 745% return
on your investment within 5 years.
Make money from this "unstoppable" market trend
Why? Because Americans love to gamble! In 2003, Americans spent $73
billion on gambling – more than they spent on movie tickets, recorded
music, theme parks, spectator sports, and video games
combined.
The hot game today is poker in general, and Texas Holdem in particular.
Yet only 10% of gambling systems focus on competitive poker. And
only one, the Fortuna system, enables players to gamble on poker over
their cell phones and other mobile systems.
The Romans believed that Fortuna was "the Goddess of Fortune."
And with Fortuna building a business based on the convergence of three
hot trends – poker, online gambling, and mobile gaming – early investors
in Fortuna could walk away with a tidy fortune of their own. I recommend
you buy Fortuna Gaming Corp. today at up to $3.
Sincerely,

game, poker, without playing a single hand.
