Allan - Just some idle speculation. I'm not sure at what rate IPV fulfills their orders, but I'll assume 20% of their orders are out of backlog and producing revenue in Q1. Being cautious, that would mean about 2.4 million in revenue, with increased profitability and a huge reduction in losses, roughly 8.3 cents/shr., call it 8 cents a share. If (this is really loose!) you subtract 50% cost of doing business (some are reorders) you get 4 cents/shr., on trailing earnings. With a P/E of 20 that should give a share price of $0.80. That's optimistic, for trailing earnings. However, if they can fulfill their backlog, I think my forward projection of $0.15/shr is about right...and if more orders come in (and I think they will), then $3/shr. in 12 months may be pessimistic. These figures are real loose, so please, nobody be badmouthin' me...just thinking out loud!
