Neither the p/b or p/r ratios are relevant for this company. The one time i tried to buy a software company based on those ratios i lost at least half of my money when the company reported a huge loss, and writedowns on obsolete products adjusted the book value for me. The relevent numbers here are profit, profit growth and cash flow relative to book net of cash. I admit that this not a graham-dodd value. If you would like to list any gambling or internet related entities that you are evaluating in terms of p/b or p/r I would be interested to hear about them.
