I get my earnings estimates from Zacks, with which I have a subscription. You might want to try a free two week trial.

Dan, let's put the earnings revisions in perspective. I often wondered how in the heck HMAR would meet those higher estimates and figured it was acquisition after acquisition which would contribute the bottom line. I hoped that the analysts were plugged in to internal plans, but did not count on it. I do think HMAR should give conservative guidance and whallop the numbers. Here is where we stand now with the downward revisions: 1996 1997 1998 1999 act act fcst fcst revenue $109 $210 $xxx profit (2.1) 25.5 xxx EPS (.24) 1.63 2.26 2.84 % EPS growth 39% 26% So what is the value of a 1.63 EPS company growing at 30% a year? We should buy all we can at $18, IMO. note: The above 98/99 EPS fcst are averages of the latest revisions - R James 2.20 and 2.76 with 25% new long term growth est Major Broker 2.38 and 2.76 F Selz 2.20 and 3.10
