      The main result of the paper concerns the existence of at least three positive solutions to the Neumann problem: \[ \begin{cases} u''+(a^+(t)-\mu a^-(t))g(u)=0,\\ u'(0)=u'(T)=0.\end{cases} \] Assuming superlinear growth of the locally Lipschitz nonlinearity \(g\) both at \(0\) and infinity together with additional assumptions, the author proves the existence of at least three positive solutions for \(\mu\) large enough. The proof relies on shooting arguments.
