Neil, Brad, and ALL:

Am I reading the Reuters press release correctly? The way I figure it, CMNT did $100 million in 1997, and they want to grow that by 25%. That puts them at $125 million for 1998. If they want to return 15% to operating earnings, that would be $18.75 million. Figuring 22 million shares outstanding, that translates to .85 per share. (Granted, Mr. Barnum's response indicated that this would take 18 months to achieve.) What is a fair multiple to use for a company like CMNT? More than 6? <g>
