Why invest in RBTI?

RBTI has a unique focus on emerging markets for security-related solutions that require mobility and sustainable power. RBTI’s solutions encompass military, civilian and humanitarian applications.

All these represent high growth markets both domestically in the U.S. and around the world.

US spending on Home Land Security (HLS) is estimated at $50 billion this year (the federal spend comprises $44 billion) and Frost and Sullivan projects a $300 billion worldwide HLS market by 2016.

RBTI solutions apply to every segment of the HLS market and have the best opportunities in the highlighted areas of the US HLS spending currently totaling $21 billion dollars:

• Intelligence ($10.5B)
• Law Enforcement and Counterterrorism ($8.5B)
• Bioterrorism and Chemical Agent Prevention ($6B)
• Emergency Preparedness and Response ($5B)
• 8 % - Cyber-Security ($4B)
• 8% - Physical Security ($4B)
• 7% - Aviation Security ($3.5B)
• 6% - Border Security ($3B)
• 6 % - Port Security ($3B)
• 2% - Nuclear/Radiological Prevention ($1B)
• 2% - Ground Transportation Security ($1B)

Mobility represents a key factor for rapid response to the kind of threats anticipated in the future. This includes natural disasters, terrorist strikes, and special event coverage. RBTI feels that focusing on mobility gives it differentiation to participate as a niche player in a rapidly growing sector of the HLS market.

The use of sustainable power represents another differentiating aspect of many RBTI mobile solutions. Extended deployment represents a key factor for RBTI’s use of sustainable energy sources. Combining solar, wind, fuel cell and battery technologies meet the operational needs of the both the military and HLS markets where self-powered, minimized fossil fuel consumption, and time-on-station are key selection factors. RBTI has chosen to focus on energy management of multiple power sources as its key differentiating characteristic and greatest market advantage.

RBTI has a special focus on clean-water solutions. Rapid response to the events like hurricanes Katrina and Ike and the flooding in the mid-west point out the need for mobile clean water solutions. The same applies to forward operating bases needed by the military and the humanitarian needs for clean water in emerging countries. Working with our partner Biomimix (www.biomimix.net) RBTI has exclusive rights to its innovative Medusa product for mobile, clean water solutions. While hard to quantify today, we know that the tactical need for clean water is a rapidly emerging market in excess of $10 billion today.
