PPD (Pre-paid Legal Services) on the move
An SI Board Since May 1996
Posts SubjectMarks Bans Symbol
801 10 0 PPD
Emcee:  Lee Hsu Type:  Unmoderated
Introduction Market Data Compact
PPD (on ASE) develops, underwrites and markets legal service plans nationally. The company markets pre-paid legal service contracts which encourage preventive/defensive use of legal service. According to the latest earning report(for quarter ending 3/96), the company reported new members total 40,965 vs. 18,552 for the same period last year. Revenues climbed 64% and income increased 85%. Earning per share increased from 7 cents to 12 cents in the quarter. In additin, the chairman was very optimistic about the future earning. So much for the fundamental.

Technically, PPD picked up some momentum in the past several days and will likely to entend the gains from the 18-19 base. The price now is around 22. I think the stock can pass 30 in one or two month. If the next earning(release in july)is strong, PPD will be close to 40's.

Just my opinion, do your homework. I just provide you a lead, you are the one to make decision.

Lee
