bankbuyer says::: Streetlinks made $14.60 per appraisal in Q1 . Do you realize the volume required to have any impact on over 91 million shares ?
Yes I do as thats called earnings margin per appraisal- When margins increase that figure will be higher. Here information on the 1st quarter figures from 2011 to 2012
The large increase in service fee income in the appraisal management segment is directly related to the increase in completed orders
and transactions. The substantial increase in order volume is mainly due to our sales efforts, which led to increases in the number of
mortgage lender customers, along with gaining additional order volume from existing customers. Generally, direct costs of services are
consistent when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the same period in 2011. Fees charged by appraisals have
largely remained unchanged. However, changes in the fee income and cost of service per unit, and therefore the net margin, from
period to period may be impacted by the product mix of the appraisal products completed. In addition, margins for other valuation and
transaction-based services are generally significantly different from full service appraisal management services, which may impact
margins as the volume of these services increases.
The selling, general and administrative expenses are higher when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2012 to the same
period in 2011. However, as a percentage of revenue, these expenses are lower as many of these costs do not increase proportionate
to production.
Following is an analysis of the results of operations from the appraisal management segment.

So bankbuyer Streetlinks had 107,618 or more than 200% the appraisals for 2012- for the heck of it lets say Streetlinks doubles the number appraisals for future periods. I'm sure you have the proper software to give you the potential earnings. Pretty darn impessive isn't it & thats just Streetlinks $$$$$$$$$$$
Even negative you will probably want to BUY a few shares to get in on the ACTION. Have you ever heard of a PEG ratio??????
