ANALYSIS FROM THE AOL THREAD: Subject: Current Valuation Date: 4/22/99 9:54 PM Pacific Daylight Time From: HENDRASN Message-id:
Alright guys, we have a winner here alright, I have read all the posts on the message boards from SI to Raging Bulls, but none of them have any idea when to sell. The problem is no one knows because no one knows what kind of revenues will be generated from the partnership with Lucent and IBM, and its potential!! But one thing is for sure it is big alright!! I spoke with Wendy through e-mail and she told me she can't give specific numbers regarding the deal with Lucent but this is what I estimated...from the analysis by Renwick Corporate Finance, it is estimated that it will generate earnings $.03 per share on $10 million revenue in year 2000 because of Lanier shipments, and its estimate is $.30-$.35 cents range which is 10 times earnings....look at the industry's current P/E ratio Market Guide - Comparison Report for e.Digital Corporation (EDIG) it is nearly 50 times earnings, which should make it at least $1.50 cents stock right now!!
Now if you would like to value it using the revenue generated, this is a little bit more complicated but I will explain it...to be as conservative as possible, I would used EDIG's current fully diluted shares outstanding, which is 116.1 mil, and thus at its current price of 70 cents a share, it amounts to 81.27 mil in mkt capitalization, divide it by its estimated revenue of 10 mil, it Price/Sales is currently 8.1, what???? this is incredible what about the speculated revenue generated by the current deals with LU and IBM which I speculate may be around $15 mil to be conservative....projected revenue will increase to $25 mil dollars, thus its Price/Sales is currently....guess what?? You do the math $81.27 mil / $ 25 mil =3.25....oh oh?? Something is definitely wrong here...with its future potential, shouldn't it be at least valued among its industry with deals with big names and patented technologies....guess what is the P/S for the industry sector....12.72!!!! And that is just the average, this stock definitely should go higher?? Let's see now if this were to be priced with the industry, it should be like around $2.70 cents a share, with the Lanier, and the speculated $15 mil rev generated by LU and IBM deals, and guess what?? This is a very very conservative prediction, even with all its preferred shares, warrants and options exercised, the price should be valued at this price.....you do the math, I would predict the high end worth of this stock should $4.00, which should make it a $2.70 - $ 5.00 stock right now!!! What is it currently trading at...that's right buddy...70 cents a share?? What does CNBC talk about nowadays...investing in value companies..so is this a value company or what?? I'm sorry market makers for disclosing the true value of the company to the public but I am holding a significant amount of shares in this company, and I do know what it's worth, rather than see it being played by you guys at the 70 cents range...hmmmm...what do you guys think?? Since I am not able to post this analysis on the SI Board or the Raging Bulls board, I would appreciate it if someone would post it for me, so that the general public will not be fooled by the MM plays, and go long for this company...it has a tremendous future, and it is really really undervalued for an internet stock!!! Many millionaires will be made from this stock, good luck!!!
