Anybody here ?

I see only very positive things here, with a possible 200% upside.

Anaysts:
CRUTTENDEN 12/31/97 STRONG BUY
H.D. BROUS 12/31/97 BUY
MORGAN KEEGAN 11/26/97 HOLD

EPS:
FY Q1st Q2nd Q3rd Q4th Year
1999ÿN/Aÿ N/Aÿ N/Aÿ N/Aÿ 0.73Eÿ
1998ÿ0.13Eÿ0.14Eÿ0.14Eÿ0.16Eÿ0.55E
1997ÿ0.08ÿ 0.10ÿ 0.12ÿ 0.12Eÿ0.42E

Annual EPS growth rate of 30%
Q497 EXP.REPT: 2/20/98

Last three quarters showed upside eps surprise between 9-15%.

Based on 30% EPS growth rate, this stock should be selling at =0.55*30= 16.5. Since, this is a small growth company, it should sell at 80% of its growth rate. That still brings this stock at about 13.

What gives?
