good question...i'll put up a little time matrix.

jul 18... ssti reports $103 million in revenues and $.71 in earnings ($.24 split adjusted)

jul 19... CSFB sets $135 price target (pre-split) or $45
jul 19... CEUT sets $190 price target (pre-split) or $63.3
sep 17... first union starts ssti as strong buy

all of these 3 analyst actions imo were based on the earnings release in july.

aug 14... ssti splits 3x1

sep 27... ssti pre-announces >$150 million in revenues and >$.35 in earnings.

and the company gives the following guidance, "It can't produce enough of its products to meet the demand, the company said, and plans to keep expanding capacity."

this is 50% or higher revenues and 50% or higher earnings over the previous quarter...+330% in revenues and 1700% in earnings over the previous year...and a projection of continuous growth.

do the analysts now reward ssti by raising the bar again?
i believe they have to.

i see this as a terrific opportunity to reduce the pe in my portfolio, during these trying times, without sacrificing high growth.
based on $.35 per share per quarter and friday's close, the one year forward PE is >20.
