Re-entering position now.

Looks like stock had an okay up move after (!!) I sold it last year, and now has come back down.

Wall Street Transcript has a June interview with Brian Boyle of Boyle Capital Management (ed: They run a concentrated portfolio of only 5-15 stocks) wherein he describes his reasons for buying KDE:

Sum of parts:

$8+ cash/sh. and no ltd. (This aspect has been a positive for the stock for many years.)

Licensing business. Declining business because of expiration of some deals, but still worth $40M to a private buyer, he says.

A website that he values $60M.

Potential of Chaotic Games, which is a combination of online and trading cards. Here's the company's latest p.r. about it:
biz.yahoo.com

His thesis is that the downside to the stock is limited by his estimate of the sum-of-parts, whereas the upside could be significant if Chaotic is as successful in its USA roll out as he saw in its debut in Denmark.

Worth a small bet to me.
