Excerpt from yesterday's FY98 report: Object Design® reported total revenues of $62.4 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 1998, up 32 percent from $47.3 million reported for the 12 months ended December 31, 1997. Software license revenues were $44.0 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 1998, up 31 percent from $33.6 million for the prior year. Net income for the 12 months ended December 31, 1998, was $4.8 million or $0.17 per share compared to $800,000 or $0.03 per share for the 12 months ended December 31, 1997. ODIS managed to raise its soft. license rev by 31% from '97 to '98. Now, if eXcelon is to be ODIS's silver bullet in 1999 we can factor it into ODIS's growth as an extra 10%... That means approx. 45% growth in license revenue in 1999 or $64M. Not so bad for a still depressed dbms market! Now, if you take into account this little ''consolidation breeze'' blowing around... news.com It makes ODIS an attractive play --especially with such good financial parameters (TTM P/E, P/S, float, etc.). All we need from now on is a stream of eXcelon-related PRs. Regards, Gustave.
