Market Cap & Revenues Update: AOL vs IMOT vs XNET

Market Cap & Revenues comparison; XNET vs IMOT vs AOL using share prices from 3/26:
AOL has a Market Cap (MC) of $128 billion. MC of XNET =$19 million, IMOT = $44 million.
REVENUES Estimate; XNET 1.7 mil, IMOT .28 Mil, AOL 4 bil
MC/R: XNET 11, IMOT 157, AOL 32
P/E: XNET 42, IMOT 5000, AOL 570


Note that our revenues estimates are based on the investor's package from XNET, but have been reviewed by the company with no major changes suggested.
See: Message 8340359
At any rate, when the revenues are posted on the new web site (We anticipate sometime within a week), we'll have a more accurate idea. Keep checking @ xinnet.net

The ratios for the Chinese ISP's might be justified in being larger than for AOL, since in the next 5 years there will be a 16 times increase in Internet users in China, and only a 3 times increase in the US. (See chinavista.com )
At any rate, by comparison XNET clearly appears to be undervalued at this current price level.
MC/R ratio may be a more important indicator than P/E, since Top Line growth (Revenue) is probably more important in China at this stage (Like it was to AOL 3-4 yrs ago... remember in 1997 AOL lost $5.22/share). In other words, you would want to sacrifice some earnings to obtain a larger market share in the current Chinese competitive environment.
