Max, let's get back to business. Some great stocks have been popped into the thread this past week. (BTW, didn't I tell you when I sold DHI, LOL). HANS is covered by one analyst, Cruttenden & Roth. The co. blew away earnings estimates on May 13th reporting earnings per share of .07 vs. the expected .01 as opposed to a break even quarter in the prior year. Next report is due 8/13 and expected earnings are .09 vs .06 the respective quarter prior year. Trades at a discount PE Multiple of 29X, vs. the 35.5 X average multiple at which the Beverages Industry is priced. C & R give the co. a growth rate of 20-25% over the next five years. Looks like we're seeing a run up before earnings, but the stock may be just about fully priced. Next year's profits will be affected by expansion costs. 6 Institutions hold only 3.81% of the outstanding shares as of March 31,1998, so there's plenty of room for additional institutional buying. This is a stock worth keeping an eye on, but I would be inclined to sell before earnings are released. Humbly submitted, Sergio
