2003 RMBS earnings/sh from DRAMs=
2003DRAMmarket*rmbsmarketshare*rmbsroyaltyrate*operatingmargin*(1-taxrate)/sharesoutstanding
=$60billion*0.5*0.015*0.85*(1-0.35)/23.8million
=$10.45/share

Other chip-to-chip applications (eg communications wins)will only increase this number.

At P/E of 50 (INTC and MU now have P/Es greater than that), justifies a price of $520/share in 2003 based on DRAM alone. If other applications amount to an additional 50% contribution (management has implied a lot more in their public statements) the price in 2003 could be $780+/share. Discounting it at 15%/yr for three years justifies a price today of over $500/share. Hope this helps.
