Let's see - Where are these numbers wrong?

1. Let's assume an aggressive PE of 40.
2. Let's use $287/share.
3. That means $7.17 per share return to justify price.
4. 58.8 million shares have been floated.
5. That means 58.8 x 7.17 = Hmm. $421 million.
There it is. Slipped in an extra zero earlier.

Hmmm. So that isn't so bad - not if they can actually make money instead of just continue to lose it.
