A Look At TSSW's Fundamentals ( AS of Friday's Close )

Price Ratios:
-------------
1) Price to Sales: TSSW: 2.11 Industry: 10.78 Lower is Better
Target Using Industry Avg = ( 10.78 / 2.11 ) * $2.44 = $12.47

2) Price to Book: TSSW: 1.80 Industry: 13.87 Lower is Better
Target Using Industry Avg = ( 13.87 / 1.80 ) * $2.44 = $18.80

Industry Price to Earnings Ratio is 53.35.
Industry Price to Cash Flow Ratio is 39.19

Looking for a return to profits soon. IMO in the 4th qtr and a bigger profit in the following 1st qtr

The reason the stock sells at such a steep discount is the fact that TSSW has not reported a profit in 8 qtrs. The last time, the company launched its new products. . TSSW reported a profit for over 7 qtrs and the stock jumped to over $16.

**TSSW is launching 3 new products. During the next qtr, PC-Cillin 3 will be on in over 9000 retail outlets for the entire qtr and TSSW will have its very popular Checkit Version 5 in about 6000 stores for about 6 weeks. Several other products doing well also. See PC Data Computing list of best selling product. Checkit Diagnostic made the top 10 selling products for its category in Oct. Nov results will be released in Jan.
** Good reward / risk play imo.
