Whoa!!! "Grows rapidly"?????

Check out the revenues for the past six quarters:

Sept 96 $190,000

Dec 96 $460,000

Mar 97 $920,000

Jun 97 $2,000,000

Sep 97 $1,800,000

Dec 97 $1,500,000

This is not growth. This is quarter over quarter declining sales.
It means that much of the product shipped in Jun 97 is still sitting
on shelves (at best) or returned to the manufacturer. At the height
of the marketing blitz, UFEM was spending $8 for every $1 in sales.

As I figure it, UFEM no longer has any money and mounting debt.
It is gone, done, and over. $30 million in advertising resulted
in at best $6 million in sales.
