Steve,
PSR or Price to Sales valuation represents looking at buying the
company outright (not just 1000 shares)
In MORPs case, it would cost $34.5 * 2.5mill (market cap) plus
any outstanding long term debt - which is 0 for MORP.
Next you compare it to the annual sales of 164mill -- history says
that the company will achieve a 1:1 ratio with sales. So for MORP
one of the following must happen
a) sales would have to decline -- not likely as sales are growing in
excess of 10%
b) number of shares would need to increase -- or mgnt would have
issue more shares -- not likely, no need for the cash.
c) Long term debt would have to go up-- again not likely, as there
is no need for the cash, in the event that MORP would buy another
company, the sales would be accretive and virtually eliminate the
long term debt.
d) share price would have to go up -- only thing on the list that
looks probable.

Remember different companys command different PSRs, MORP
is in a group that ranges/averages/median of 1.3

Later, TOM
