Introduction Market Data Compact

This stock appears to be extremely undervalued relative to its traditional growth rates. Here are the numbers based on a recent trading price of $7.00/share:

TTM PE: 8.2
TTM P/S: 1.39

1 yr EPS Growth: 102%
3 yr Operating Earnings Growth: 110% (annualized)
3 yr Revenue Growth: 73% (annualized)
1 yr Revenue Growth: 68%

Outstanding shares: 4,603,000

Two analysts follow the company. Their estimates for FY99 are found here:

With a low estimated earnings growth rate for next year, I feel that this stock may surprise to the upside. Technical pattern appears to show a bottom forming in the 6 - 6.50 region.

I would give this stock a strong speculative buy. I can easily see it doubling within the next year. Any other thoughts out there??
