So let's hear it from the bulls.

I'd consider myself an EXLN realist. My expectation for Oct. 19 is total rev. of $20.3 mn, a 36% yoy growth - much faster than ORCL, for instance (14% in Q1 FY 01): biz.yahoo.com
B2B could be about $6 mn. This is not much sequential growth but I am sticking to what Goldman said - $20 mn B2B business in 2000:

eXcelon CEO Sees Profits, Revenue Growth Ahead: Bloomberg Forum
With my estimate of $7 mn in Q4 I end up at $21.9 mn B2B 2000, already beyond the CEO guidance.

I wouldn't mind if EXLN closed the valuation gap to ORCL (EXLN grows twice as fast and has the better technology). This would mean a 4x higher share price based on the price/sales ratios. I am not asking for an ARBA valuation - that would be a 20x increase - though I expect a narrowing of the gap in the years ahead.

BTW, here's the link to an EXLN FAQ somebody created: geocities.com

If the company can do $22 million for Q3, I'll be less skeptical about the B2B initiatives. Is anyone bold enough to forecast $22 million?

I'll go for $21 million - $7 million B2B and $14 million ODBMS.

Why don't we talk about revenue growth?

Well, there's none this quarter. A sequential revenue decline isn't a dream result. My B2B projection was topped but Object Store sales seem to decline.
