Mike, I'm aware of that rule. The question is, is this another RMBS? Or do these guys have no intention of selling? Common sense tells me, if things are as bright as they appear one or two years down the road, why sell today at such a cheap price.

I don't think these guys are selling, lockup period or not.

Commments!!

You are right about the 180 "lock-out" IPO was on 6/17/97 at $8.25, opened $8.50 and closed the day at $10.38. So 180 days is not here yet.

Picked this off the ORBIT FR INC S-1/A Filing Date: 6/5/97

From the latest Quarterly

The Company has exposure to currency fluctuations as a result of
billing certain of its contracts in foreign currency. When selling to
customers in countries with less stable currencies, the Company bills in U.S. dollars. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, approximately 3% of the Company's revenues was billed in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

Substantially all of the costs of the Company's contracts, including costs subcontracted to Alchut, have been, and will continue to be, U.S.dollar-denominated except for wages for Engineering employees which are denominated in local currency. The Company intends to continue to enter into U.S. dollar-denominated contracts.
