Post 55 has the roadshow slides which include historical financial information and projections of minutes of production with which one can extrapolate growth trends.

As you can imagine, future seasons of any show are far more profitable than the first 1 or 2 seasons because the initial model design and equipment purchases hold back profits. Given that they are on season 2 of BeastWars and 3 of ReBoot, more should drop to the bottom line. The real upside is the movie JV with Paul Allen/Warner Bros. I've heard the project is moving forward very fast. I would imagine they'd have to get cracking on it soon for a late summer 98 release.

That would really put Mainframe on the map in the US and probably double the revenues and earnings of the company alone. But you're right, these companies have been real moneymakers over the last few years and Mainframe appears to have a bit more proprietary nature with great partners and ownership of assets. I like the overall combo a lot. It's really only priced for the known existing TV shows with very little in it for new projects. That's what I like.
