Jack, to be completely honest, Nancy returned my call of last week when I was not near the paper with the few questions I had wanted to ask so I totally forgot to ask her what analysts earnings estimates were for ITGR, how they felt about meeting/exceeding these estimates, etc. So, there was nothing I asked that would lead me to think anything [from talking to Nancy] about earnings.
One thing we did discuss was how some people try to portray ITGR as an internet play on some stock talk sites. Nancy said they knew this because people there [at ITGR] do read various ITGR discussion areas but can not themselves post to dispel this notion [**no** real, above-board company can, not just ITGR]. I said I have tried from time to time and Nancy thanked me. As Nancy said, ITGR is a Christian music company. It publishes, has over 2,000 copyrights for songs, and markets its products through a variety of places, including internet sites.
Nancy also said that it seems when Didex (AMEN) makes a news release it has an impact on the price of ITGR--totally different companies but that's the way it is. ITGR's music can be purchased at AMEN's site and one month, ITGR sponsored the music page at AMEN.
One more thing: Their new, improved web site is not done yet. It is still being fine-tuned.
Basically, using my words [which I think Nancy at ITGR IR would agree with], to view ITGR as an internet company is the same as considering L.L. Bean an internet company.
