Janice,
Close, but it is imperative that your cheerleading efforts include
the terms, "piping hot, delicious, tasty fries". Plus, you
need to invoke wistfully speculative images of revolutionary vending machines
in every dorm room in the country, and at every airport gate and possibly
on every commercial airliner. Post offices, too (right next to the stamp
machines), and at every bus stop.
Lastly, in order to have an impact, you must quantify your revenue
predictions. Something like this :
"Okay, there are 3 million dorm rooms, 20,000 airport gates, 5,000
commercial airliners, and 250,000 post offices. Let's be conservative and
say that there are only 2,000,000 vending machines. Given that each machine
will generate 100 vends per day, and a net profit of $0.75 per vend,
we arrive at a daily net revenue of 150 million dollars. Annualizing
this gives us 5.4 billion dollars per year (Again, being conservative
and using only 360 days per year, assuming 5 days are lost due to down
time).
So, a very conservative estimate of 5.4B per year, divided by
540 million outstanding shares gives an eps of $10.00 per share,
and a conservative P/E of 50 means that our TFRY stock should be
trading at approximately $500 per share by year's end. People who
invested several years ago will see a (albeit small) profit!!"
I hope this helps.
