Peter, I don't think it's too late at all for this stock. Here's my analysis and thoughts...I'm willing to bet that analyst numbers for the current year will be going up...way up. The only street analyst who covers them hasn't spoken with management recently. I have, and I think they could do closer to .30 for this year! That's 66% higher than the street. As a general rule, as numbers go up, stock prices go up. If I'm right, then the stock could easily trade at a 25 multiple, or $7.50 (or 150% above where it is today). And that analysis is based on THIS YEARS earnings, not '99, which will like be higher given the functional beverage market growth. If the company has a good '99, the stock will likely move higher. After all, its not even trading at 1 X sales! In addition, I think their margins on the Energy vitamin drinks are close to 70%! Any thoughts?....Terry
