It's been just over a year since anyone posted on this thread re BAS. Thought you might be interested in this response from BAS Investor Relations to my general question about the market for BAS products. It's nice to dream and there is truly some substance to what's happening here to base those dreams on. They have been very responsive. The response: With our BasisXpress product we will typically be able to charge upfront professional services fees for implementation/customization that will amount to $50-$100k for small lenders and $1-2 million for large lenders. Then we will typically charge 4-6 basis points on the value of funded transactions that run over the system ($40-$80 per $100,000 principal value). The other revenue model could be that the larger lenders may choose to just license the technology outright (ie. one time license fee - $ amount to be determined ($2-10 million??) and implement it in their own data centres (not have us provide it to them on an ASP basis). There were approximately $80B in mortgages funded in Canada last year. If we got 100% of the mortgages running over our technology at 4-8 bp, this would represent a $32-64 million revenue opportunity. If you add in all the ancillary services we provide around the core BasisXpress, you could double this opportunity. If you look at the US market, the opportunity is 10-15x the Canadian opportunity, as is the European opportunity. Our annual report which is coming out in 2-3 weeks will help define the market opportunity as well. Hope this helps.

AND MORE Basis 100 Inc. Wednesday June 13, 9:28 am Eastern Time Press Release SOURCE: Basis100 Inc. Basis100 Signs 78 New Solimar Technology Customers Raising Total Customers to 950 - Strong sales in May see new lenders in 41 states adopting Solimar Technology for automated property valuations - IRVINE, CA, June 13 /CNW/ - Basis100 Inc. (BAS:TSE), a leading e-commerce technology solutions provider for the financial services industry, announced today that the U.S. division has signed 78 new lending customers in May, boosting total customers to 950. These customers have adopted the Solimar Technology property valuations in residential mortgage origination. Basis100's AVM technology is currently in use with eight of the top ten equity lenders in the U.S. Basis100's new customers, who include lenders in 41 states from Florida to Washington, will use Solimar Technology for appraisal reviews during the mortgage origination process. The company continues to offer its automated valuations to value individual properties as well as entire property portfolios. Each property valuation generated by the system is conducted via the Internet in less than 5 seconds. Basis100 attributes this rapid growth to several factors including increased knowledge of capabilities of AVMs in general; dropping interest rates that have increased refinancing and equity loan volumes; and a newly restructured sales process, which supports a more targeted approach to selling the Solimar Technology. "There are many applications for our technology. Educating our customers and potential customers about AVMs in lieu of appraisals is one strategy that we are aggressively pursuing. Internal applications, such as appraisal audits, can save valuable resources in both time and money, improving the bottom-line for our customers" said Basis100, Chairman and CEO, Gary Bartholomew. "70% of Basis100 revenues are generated from our U.S. operations, so the continued adoption of the technology and success of the sales efforts means sustained revenue growth for the company." Many of the new lending customers will fully integrate the Solimar Technology interface into their loan origination system so that extraneous data entry is eliminated, facilitating the quick delivery of loan approvals processed through the system. "Consistent with our corporate vision, Basis100 delivers solutions to our customers specific needs - the overwhelming success of our U.S. property valuation sales efforts indicate that lenders in the United States are turning to Basis100 technology for automation in mortgage processing," said Bartholomew. "This means a quicker turn-around time and potentially higher profits on mortgage origination for our lending customers on both sides of the border." Basis100 acquired Solimar Technology with the purchase of California- based Solimar.Net in February 2000, providing the foundation for its U.S. division. Basis100 now directs its Solimar Technology sales and operations from its U.S. headquarters in Irvine, California. About Basis100 Basis100 (BAS:TSE) is a leading e-commerce technology solution provider for financial institutions and service providers enabling them to build, distribute, buy and sell their products and services in innovative new ways. Basis100 is focused on the mortgage origination, consumer credit, fixed income trading, and automated property valuation markets across North America.
