Sam, That "dip" you mentioned forecast in Barron's was not for HTCH in the March qtr. They should show substantial percentage increase even if the industry does dip a little. More important, that $2.00 per share estimate for 1999 fical year incorporates a forecast of $.85 per share by Montgomery Securities in the Sept 1999 quarter. Thats $3.40 annualized and if HTCH's TSA is continuing to become the industry standard, you could see a 20 plus p/e very easily. Therefore, looking out a year, HTCH could easily be in a $40 to $80 range which would probably take the prize for best return from these levels. Due to the high revenue growth $80 is only twice annualized sales in Sept '99 and $.85 EPS requires only an 8% return on sales, a level HTCH has substantially exceeded in the past.
