OT , sorry for this almost intelligent discussion :-)
A 3 year annual growth in earnings per share of more than 100%.
Net income for the year (1998) increased 80% on a 72% growth in revenue. Earnings per share rose 73%.
International business grew to 39.7% from 21.5%, a factor that will add stability as well as expansion opportunities.
O/S shares growth is only about 3% since 1996 ( about 22MM ).
Net income per share for 1998 was 19 cents vs 11 in 97 and 5 in 96.
Trading right now at two dollars and change. Anyone interested in this company. PM me.

P.S. It has NOTHING to do with the Internet.
