Thank you, Mr. Sturgis. I am upping the move to $30/share for near term P/E ratio, to be in line with the rest of the good department stores. AMES deserves it.

Visit your stores, keep it nicely run.

Winner, - Well that was fast. Again, congratulations on your 10 bagger in AMES, and an official welcome to SI. I know you'll have many valuable contributions to make to any thread you participate in.
Ames appears poised for further good times ahead. New store openings, a reduced debt load (and interest costs), and a management team who listens to their shareholders suggestions. I'm going to be reviewing the financials over the weekend, because my back of the envelope calculations look too good to be true. We may have a tiger by the tail here.

If the company can increase revenues to $2.5 Billion, while simultaneously increasing their after tax profit margins to the 3% area over the next 1-2 years, it is possible AMES could report EPS as high as $3.00 a share in the next 2 years.

Let's see, Arthur,-- $3.00 a share times 22 X earnings ..... well you get the idea.
