Introduction Market Data Compact

This stock was just recommended to me by someone
I usually trust. I am having difficulty finding
out about it on-line. As described to me, it is
essentially an HMO for dental services which is
raking in cash and is the largest (perhaps) only
of its kind. It took the stock price hit along
with all of the other HMOs earilier this year
but has not yet recovered. I understand also
that earnings have tended about 50% growth rates
on revenue growth of 30%, but I can't confirm
those numbers.

I would appreciate insight from anyone who has
it, and I will post anything I find as I search.

Thanks,

J
