POTENTIAL ETCH FAIR VALUE
ETCH is incredibly undervalued. Consider that ESTN (Canadian OTC) specializes in Internet Kiosks only and has a market cap of $120 million. ETCH has much more than Internet Kiosks as summarized in the following Business summary. With 30 Million shares outstanding, ETCH has a maket cap of only $31 million.
Another interesting comparison is to WIZZF which has been the hottest Internet Incubator on the OTC BB:
WIZZF Market Capitalization $123.9M Shares Outstanding 41.3M Float 37.6M SALES LAST 6 MONTHS: $2 MILLION Price/sales ratio: 31
ETCH Market Capitalization $45M Shares Outstanding 30 M Float 3.5 M Projected sales after aquisitions: $25 MILLION Forward Price/Sales ratio: 1.8
Conclusion: ETCH incredibly undervalued!!
