I agree wrt the same store sales declines. If I recall same store sales declined around 6% over prior year levels. Thing is, however, that net margins are incredibly strong at over 13%. Very few restaurants can produce these kinds of profits. In addition they have no debt. I'm not currently invested, but am watching this story unfold with keen interest. On the positive side, the current 6% drop in same store sales provides an easier baseline for future pct increases. Shane

Young Man The consensus for this year is around 1.70 eps and book value around 15,with these numbers and the price share in 17, STAR is a bargain and has a per very low. I belive that STAR is a company without risk in this price and if we look the history is very difficult that we see fall off from here. The only way is up.Now the price should be 25. Moreover,5 annalist say buy ond other 5 hold (but this is less important).
