OK. Let us talk stock. Assume AOL has 18 million users as advertised, and each one is paying $19.95 per month, that translate into 4.3 billion in revenue. With a profit margin of 8%, that translate into an earning of 345 million. Assume AOL's adversitsement net earning is about the same as YHOO at about 25 million. The total earning per year will be 360 million. With total number of shares at about 940 million, the earning per share per year is $0.38. That is 38 big CENTS per share for 99. This does not include potential expenses with NSCP acquisition.
