Interesting comparisons: quicken.com quicken.com Also, click on any of the java comparison categories above on the left for further fun... P/S is perhaps the most interesting: TMCS's '98 revenues (sales) will be ~$380MM let's see what TMCS's stock price would be, applying the above comparable stock's P/S ratios: formula: P/S ratio x $380MM = ?? / 70MM shares = comparable TMCS stock price In the form - company(P/S) ONSL(11.7) AMZN(74.8) EWBX(284.3) YHOO(302) EBAY(1,448.7) comparable TMCS $$/share = $64 $406 $1,543 $1,640 $7,864 These prices are more a reflection of the crazy P/S given to these "other" net companies, but very noteworthy nonetheless. But P/E ratios (click above) aren't comparable when most of the compared cos don't have earnings as TMCS does.
