Sure is a relief to see a POSITIVE earnings suprise out of ECGOF after all the recent dissapointments from other companies. Analyst estimates for the year were $1.06, ECGOF came in with $1.08. With another 30% earnings growth expected this year, that puts their PEG ratio at only 0.3 (P/E 10/30% growth)!! That means this company, to have a fair valuation of a PEG=1, is worth $32! (30% projected growth X earnings per share of 1.08) Most fast growing company's PEG is well above 1, so $32 is a consevative valuation. I think many mistakenly took the $1.20 rumor as analyst expectations and got scared when they saw 1.08 which in fact was a positive suprise.
