Yes I think $60 is quite feasible by year end.

Assume by Nov./Decemeber it appears likely that FLEXF can earn $2.40 for this year (I think that's the consensus estimate although if I remember correctly Paul K. mentioned that these estimates might actually be upgraded). That means the next year's estimate will be roughly $3/share which at that time will have greater visibility. With a PE of 20x that means $60 by year end (assuming the overall market is accommodating).

I'm still hoping that the whole ECM sector because of earnings growth potential over the next several years will experience a little PE multiple expansion i.e., a PE of 25, and therefore $75 by early next year.

Lets hope M. Marks doesn't say anything when Q4 results are released to deflate earnings expectations.
