It just occurred to me that 20% licence growth might be better than 90% Revenue growth because licence revenue goes straight to the bottomline. At 8% percent margins one would have to generate $12.5 in revenue for each $ in pretax profits. Whereas every dollar in license is equal to a $1 in pretax profits. Also, the price to sales ratio looks even lower than it appears. $44 million of royalties convert into $550 million in revenue to make them comparable to other companies.
