Now before anyone get too excited, I realize that the majority of the stock is institution and insider owned, and most likely, not presently available.
This is from the latest quarterly report:
WASHINGTON, NC - November 13, 2007 - Fountain Powerboat Industries, Inc. (AMEX:FPB), a leading manufacturer of high performance sport boats, fish boats and express cruisers, today announced the results of its fiscal 2008 first quarter ended September 30.
Net Sales
Net sales for the first quarter were $18 million, a 7 percent decrease when compared to sales of $19.4 for the first quarter of fiscal 2007.
“We expect revenues for Fiscal 2008 to be flat, at approximately $68 million, which is an aggressive goal given the weak market for fiberglass recreational boats,” stated Fountain’s founder and CEO Reginald M. Fountain, Jr. “Our revenue for the first quarter is in line with our goals for the year. While attendance at boat shows has been down this year our participation has been intense and our sales at retail at the shows have been encouraging. We are confident that the introduction of new and enhanced boat models during Fiscal 2008 will give a boost to our sales,” added Fountain.
Operating Profit/(loss)
Operating profit for the first quarter of Fiscal 2008 was $638,470, versus an operating loss of ($38,505) for the first quarter of Fiscal 2007.
“The improvement in operating profit is the result of improvements in the productivity of the manufacturing operation and the aggressive cost and expense reduction program that the Company’s management has effected over the past few months,” commented Fountain’s Chief Financial Officer, Irving Smith.
Net Profit/(Loss)
Net profit for the first quarter of Fiscal 2008 was $273,340, or net earnings per share of $0.06 on a basic and diluted basis, versus a net loss of ($196,670), or net loss per share of ($0.04) on a basic and diluted basis, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2007.

If you could start a proxy bid you could probably force Merc to play their hand and BUY the company.
After they made that loan they had the right, at future dates, to purchase the company. I am sure that includes a hostile takeover.

If you look at the last annual report and the latest 10Q, Fountain is carrying a substantial debt, mostly in the form of cash borrowed to finance operations. Fountain is the world's most successful boating tax shelter- for Reggie.
