SCOP (SCOPUS TECHNOLOGY) - A SOFTWARE COMPANY THAT SELLS ENTERPRISE-READY HELP DESK/SUPPORT PRODUCTS JUST REPORTED YESTERDAY AFTER THE MARKET CLOSE: REVENUES up 80% from same quarter 1995 EARNINGS up 300% from same quarter 1995 EARNINGS up 100% from previous quarter EPS came in at $.10. 3 Analysts following the company have strong buy/ buy ratings. Expected EPS was $.07. At $20 stock has a current PE of 50 (base on $.10 X 4, a conservative figure). Sector leader Remedy software (RMDY) reported $.14 a couple of weeks ago. Price now is $70 - $80. WHAT IS THE CATCH> SCOP has low visibility, relatively unkonwn. Just went public November 1995. WHAT IS THE SCOOP. 12 M shares outstanding. Sold 2 - 3 M sares to the public. Insiders control the rest. VERY VERY LOW FLOAT. TRADERS!!! YOU JUST HAVE TO LOVE THIS BABY> A BIG UPTICK IN VOLUME WLLL SURELY SQUEEZE THOSE MARKET MAKERS> STOCK had a pretty nice run-up during the last 3 weeks. Opened strong today, but went down a couple of points. Is this profit taking? Or the market makers just playing it down so they don't get burned if word goes around. Why should this stock be $28 (at least). Stock has been selling around $14-$15 for quite some time. At previous quarter's EPS of $.05. Present earnings double this. What should happen to the stock. It should sell at $28 to $30. And this does not take yet into account the earnings surprise. PE expansion occurs when blowout quarters are reported. If it start selling at Remedy's PE, stock should be $40 to $50. Now tell me, am I right or am I right?
