>>IF Zicam does $100 million in sales in two years and GumTech wins a couple of large gum supply contracts (nicotine and dental gum), a stock price of $100 per share in two years is well within reason.<< Do you think it is possible to reach Street Walker's target for GUMM at $40-45 within a year? Any numbers to back this up based on forward looking sales ($1.80 net profit/sale on Zicam). There are 1 billion colds per year. What percentage is GUMM aiming to treat this fall/winter? How many units are they manufacturing/day? I'm just trying to get a grasp of how much money they will make (earnings/share) for the 4th quarter reporting Next March. I'm thinking long term. I wish I had the gift of better understanding how to do the numbers game and generate forward looking numbers, but I don't. If we get a Nicorette contract, do we know the amount of money GUMM will make per unit? Any forward looking statements on such would be nice to have as well. I'm looking forward to a year from now and want to really believe GUMM will be trading at $40-45 or even higher. Do you think we could be higher than that in a year? Thanks for helping us keep the faith. I know about Zicam, and Street educated us on the generic Nicorette, could someone please explain what this "dental" talk is all about? I haven't a clue. What is it? How big is the market? Is it a small or big money maker? Thanks, bo
