Last quarter the earnings were about 6 cents. The company paid some tax, but not at the full rate, since there were still some credits left. I would be interested to know which of the following propositions you think is too optimistic: 1. The company will continue to grow revenues at 20% or better per year. 2. This will help the company to grow earnings at 20% or better per year. 3. Next year the company is likely to earn at least 5 cents per quarter, or 20 cents over the year. 4. At $4, that puts the company on a future P/E of 20. I think anyone who accepts all 4 of these propositions (and I don't know whether you do) would probably agree that ODIS is good value at $4 or below even if we regard the "blue sky" opportunities as worthless. What do you think?
