ECHO is in a good business sector. Why are they so small? The USPS and U-Haul contracts look promising. I guess I like it below a buck.

DGIT, I just don't like this one. What do you see here? "History of Losses; Future Operating Results Uncertain. The Company was founded in 1991 and has been unprofitable since its inception. The Company expects to continue to generate net losses for a minimum of the next twelve months. As of September 30, 1998, the Company's accumulated deficit was $88.5 million. Accordingly, although the Company has recently experienced significant growth, a significant portion of which is due to acquisitions, such growth rates may not be sustainable and should not be used as an indication of future sales growth, if any, or of future operating results. The Company's future success also will depend in part on obtaining continued reductions in delivery and service costs, particularly continued automation of order processing and reductions in telecommunications costs. There can be no assurance that the Company's sales will grow or be sustained in future periods, that the Company will be able to reduce delivery and service costs, or that the Company will achieve or sustain profitability in any future period."
