$5/share times 340 million shares = $1.7 Billion According to the consolidated financial statement from last quarter the company's other assets were as follows: Investments were $581 million Property and Equipment $694 million Inventories $200+ million Intangibles $362 million Total $1.837 billion We all know most of 3Com's real estate was purchased over a decade ago and that prices have sky rocketed in Santa Clara. For this reason I feel it would be safe to attribute a factor greater than 2, which would manifest over a billion dollars in lieu of $694 million in that line item. This would leave us a Book value greater than $12.
