1. Valuation numbers: My Comment

Price/Book (mrq*) 0.42 P/B very low,
Price/Earnings (ttm) 12.55 Company is comfortable with $1 estimate
Price/Sales (ttm) 0.19 for the coming fiscal year.

Debt/Equity (mrq*) 0.36 Not very high.

2. Management and ownership:
Insider: 54%
­Ï Over the last 6 months:
­Ï one insider buy; 140.0K shares (1.1% of insider shares)
­Ï Institutional: 62% (136% of float)
(238 institutions)
­Ï Net Inst. Selling: 6.28M shares (+76.24%)

My comment: Insiders own more than half. Chairman/CEO actually bought $1M worth of stock in last 3 months. Institution sold almost 10M shares in past 6 months(almost half of shares out), which drove down this stock to such bargain price. The chart showed a bottom and is trending up, which gives people hope, will make people hold rather than panic sell.

I have accumulated shares in the past 3 months between $7-9. I will buy more on dips. My one year target price is $16.
