Arnie,

I owned BLTI several years ago so I did a lot of the research on it then. I could only find 1 dentist in the area who even offered their service. My dentist(who is booked every day) didn't see it as a must have since his practice is thriving to say the least. Maybe if he loses a lot of patients he will change his mind but most of his patients would be unlikely to switch because they know he will always squeeze you in if its an emergency. Now I also think the BLTI growth story will slow down in the future. Right now you have a less than $50M in revenue company with a market cap of $250M. Now to me that looks like a high risk. As always, I hope I am wrong and you make a fortune. Never did like going to the dentist anyways. LOL.

Joe

Arnie, blti reported sales are increasing @ at a rate of 55% per year (not quarter). Now they want to adjust this number. This adjustment will lower the rate of growth and therefore increase the P/S and P/E ratios.

Doing the math, if the rate of growth is reduced from 55% and the P.E ratio is increased from the current 62 and the P.S. ratio is increased from the current 6.79 you end up with a very expensive stock.
