Ciprico (Nasdaq CPCI) designs and manufactures RAID disk arrays. They provide high performance storage solutions for visual computing applications. Last summer, company was selected to provide technology for the mega super filmhit: "INDEPENDENCE DAY", which earned a hell-of-a-lot, box-office wise. Last fiscal year's EPS was $0.10 on 9/30/95. Analysts are expecting $0.60 for 9/96, a wopping 500% increase (versus S&P 500's 11%) and $0.78 for 9/97, a 680% increase (vs. S&P 500 +18%). 5 year estimate of earnings growth is 30%. (vs. S&P 500's 5.50%). So, normally, one should expect a P/E ratio of at least 5 times the S&P average of 18.74. However, today the company is trading at a P/E ratio of 23.83 (vs. 20.26 for the S&P 500). Either this growth company (rather unknown with the average tech-investor) is a screaming buy, or it is a hell-of-a-pan. Who would shed some light? Michael Berkel
