Hi Tim:

Like you I have some IOM, many are trying to keep it down that's for sure .. so far people seem positive about 4Q results on the 21st.

For any Canadian fans, here's a pre Monday earnings report FYI ..

INTERNATIONAL DATASHARE (IED:TSE $0.42) <http://www.datashare.net>

The company has released 1999 2nd Qtr Results (ending Nov 30/98) this
weekend which will be on the wire service Monday morning. Results are very
positive and particularly so when you consider the past 6mths has been one
of the worse times for the oil/gas industry in years. Sales for the 6mth
period are $3.1 million and an increase of 156% over the previous period in
1997. The company has also achieved an increase of $841,800 in operating
income over the prior period.

The full report to shareholders is expected to be on the website by Monday
but a few important excerpts are below:

"IDC will no longer be presented to the investment community as simply an
oil/gas service company. For the past 4mths we have been quietly working to
create the basis for changing the way the investment and customer
communities view IDC. A new, more proactive I/R program has been designed
and the company has revamped its products and services marketing approach
with a focus on Total Information Management."

"This strategic acquisition (Docuserve) brings with it substantial
expertise in high speed document scanning, indexing, and OCR as well as a
wealth of major customers in fields other than oil/gas."

"Possibly the most exciting news has to do with Intellectual Crystals...
the company plans to joint venture the development of these products in
order to maximize its revenues from this value-added service."

Total revenues for the year ending May 31, 1998 were $4.7 million. After
its slowest typical 6mths, the company is already well on it's way to
surpass this number. A year ago when the company was still in the expensive
software development stage and losing $100,000 per month, the stock was
trading at $1.30 !

Cheers,

Mike
