Based on the sales trend of the past 9 months it would not be impossible for the sales for the 3 months to be $4.2m. With the licencing revenue continuing to increase the % of cost of sales is decreasing. If the cost of sales falls to 60% it would leave a gross profit of $1.7m. Selling and general expenses average about 25% of sales.(say $1.05m). Interest although increasing will see the benefit of the reduced rates payable from 1st October 1998 and could cost $.13m in the current quarter. Assume R & D of $.15m. Based on the above it should be possible to make a profit of between $350,000 and £400,000 in the current quarter as against $122,000 in the quarter to 30th Sept. Based on the profits of $122,000 earnings per share were .04c. If $400,000 were earned this would equate to earnings per share of 0.13c and a yearly figure of 0.52c. Setting aside Market makers tricks what p/e would you expect NTST to be on? Even on a p/e of 10 this would equate to $5.00 per share. Just my two penny worth Howard Bouch
