I thought I posted full text yesterday, but I don't see it. It's not a full report, just part of AMBRO's morning highlights. Sorry if it's a repeat: Symbol-CKFR $39.250 \| 6/99A $0.04 NM Rating Buy \| 6/00E $(0.35) NM Mkt. Cap MM $2,229 \| 6/01E $0.20 NM * WingspanBank.com to utilize CheckFree's bill payment services. * CheckFree's goals reflect significant growth in billers and bill payment subscribers. * We believe that CKFR is distancing itself from its competition and has significantly expanded its distribution through its Internet portal strategy. * We anticipate that bill payment and presentment services will be offered through both Quicken.com and Excite@Home by the end of this calendar year. * We are maintaining our FY2000 and FY2001 estimates of $(0.35) and $0.20, respectively. * We are maintaining our BUY rating and $50 price target.
