Looking at their release from Apr.14., it does look as if net earning is between 14 and 19% of revenue - and 9,114,300 in outstanding shares. The year does indeed show a turn around situation- but it is hard to say wether max speed have been reached or if this is only the beginning. Current price is fair if max speed have been reached - If it is only the beginning then a 2$ target is OK. Then again if the NY lottery is the only event in current quarter, then it is overpriced. All IMO. So I'd say back to sqare one: Company does not give out much information. Did anyone try their IR ? Kr Jens

MDIH generates revenue as follows. MDIH approaches a state and puts a game together for lets say 10-15 million tickets. For this MDIH receives 800K - 1,000K in revenue. However, out of the revenue MDIH purchases the inventory that will be distributed in the second chance portion of the lottery. The states love not having to handle the second chance portion. The states immediately earn revenue on the portion of each ticket above of course their expense portion. So you can see the benefits to the states. I feel that trying to compare the revenue stream to either a Gillette or Apple is off base. MDIH has the option to use many of its games over again in different states over different periods of time. As you know games do get stale so it remains important for MDIH to continue to license new games. With regard to the international question. I am of the understanding that the international lottery process is approximately 10 yrs. behind the US. And the scratch off game has only been around a few years. The international market is just now realizing the potential revenue that can be raised through the lottery process. I believe MDIH is also postioned to start capitalizing on this revenue stream as well. Hope this helps out.
