You're right, you shouldn't buy until you're comfortable with it. Wait until their numbers are released before you buy if that's what you want to do. I don't know what the numbers are or when they will be released, but the story is a good one and they have a promising future. So you can either speculate a little by buying now or buy a sure thing later on. I've been in this since the October high and have held on even though it is still below my entry price because I believe the company and stock will do very well in the months and years to come. I'm just kicking myself for not buying any below fifty cents, but I guess it's still cheap compared to what it will be.

Listen Mister!

No one here is telling you to buy this stock, No one here is willing to do your DD for you. No one is stopping you from calling the company (800) 916-9090 / DEMO (800) 619-DEMO (notice they are 800 numbers!) No one here is responsible for your decisions.

Nobody here owes you CRAP!

Robert

Call the company and ask them to FAX you the *audited* result of the last fiscal year and the UNaudited results from the first quarter of this year. These will address earnings.


Then go back and review the thread in the January time frame when several of us reported on the CEO's presentation at the Annual Meeting. Admittedly what we post here is hearsay, but the fact that so many of us got it apparently consistently suggests to me that we got it right (ie, we report accurately what the CEO said). Now, if he lied to us, then that is a serious offense ... an offense I am by no means suggesting ... that will be deal with quite quickly in the courts of Delaware, the state in which TSIS is now incorporated.


The CEO addressed his monthly expenditures ... formerly "burn rate," before the company became profitable.


From all this it is relatively easy to construct an earnings estimate for the quarter about to be released.


The real issue in doing a *fundamental* analysis ... and an issue over which I currently am stumped ... is to determine what P/E ratio the marketplace is most likely to apply to this company. This is made more difficult because past P/E's were based on "wished-for" earnings; by all reckonings, this coming quarterly announcement will include "actual" earnings.


You are wise to be do your own due diligence. And if you discover facts which support an alternative opinion ... even a well-researched and carefully-documented short position, I for one would welcome them. Please ask for pointers ... ie, locations ... if we can help any further. But for any who would rush in here and try to scatter Chicken Little type worry messages, such intrusions probably will be met with some antagonism.

Chaz ... whether you buy or not is up to you. No one wants to twist your arm, at least I don't. But I believe with all my heart that this is a winner. Granted, it's long term, but a winner nonetheless. However, you have valid questions that should be answered and can be answered by the company. I suggest you direct your questions to Scott Cameron, head of Investor Relations, at the company. I am sure he can put some of your concerns to rest.
