Top Turnaround Pick For 98 Is TSSW - This stock sells at a steep discount to the Industry Average Price to Sales and Price to Book. The Company has launched 3 new products ( PC-Cillin 3, E.support and Checkit Version 5 / Checkit Pro ) and has significantly cut expenses in the prior third qtr. In the 4th qtr, the company will have one full qtr of PC-Cillin 3 sales and about 6 weeks of Checkit Version 5 sales and a full qtr of the cost cutting program started late in the 3rd qtr. The key indicator to track is sales of both Checkit Version 5 and PC-Cillin. Key Points: ------------ 1) Company has $1.50 in cash and no bank debt. 2) Company sells at less than 40% Industry Price to Book and Price to Sales. 3) Company has less debt than the industry Avg ( debt to equity and LTD to equity = 0 ) 4) Company has a higher current and quick ratio than the Industry Avg. 5) Company cut its loss from a loss of .15 to a loss of .09 last qtr on lower revenues.
