Let's give the bears something to think about:
At the annual meeting, I was told by a PRST employee (who's job it was to explain PEARLgold) that PEARLgold was targeted for 90% of the plate market (!), while the PEARLdry and PEARLwet (etc.) plates were only taking aim at the other 10% of the market. Also, I was informed that the best guess for the number of Quickie's installed at the time was about 300, possibly a little over. Finally, as Neil alluded to in a previous post, PEARLgold is aimed at around 200,000 presses across the globe.
Considering PRST should earn $1/share this year with say an average of 500-700 total presses operational (that is, the total operational time of machines for 1997 is about = 500-700 presses working the entire year), can you imagine what PRST bottom line will look like if they had a conservative estimate of 20,000 presses using their plates in 4 years! ARE YOU GUYS STARTING TO GET AN IDEA WHAT YOU'RE DEALING WITH YET??
Of course, that doesn't include any revenue from the QUickmaster, Omni-Adast press, Nilpeter press, etc., etc.
