DON'T BUY
Ranks 531 out of 700, so it's in the bottom 3rd of the database. Year over year earnings have gone down by 20%. Expected to earn $0.08 which is about a 20 X PE which is not cheap. Have very interesting software that allows financial institutions to take their legacy reporting methodology and convert it to the web for clients.
BUY
Lost $.50 in Aug/06 which is expected to drop to $.20 in Aug/07. Bottom 10% of his database. Management is expected to cut costs. Speculative buy.
BUY
Have interesting software. Ranks in the top 12% of his model. Has cut expenses. Expected to earn $.06 for the Sept/07 year-end giving a high P/E of 30, but they have a fair amount of cash.
BUY

HOLD
Up for sale. Feels that someone who is a systems integrator or potentially an IBM might be interested. Their product allows the stitching together of a whole bunch of legacy systems. Should be worth $2.50 to $3.00 subject to earnings over the next 2 quarters.
BUY
Ranks high in his model at 24. Earnings growth of 96% year-over-year. Modest sales increase but good cost control. P/E is 10X. Open Text (OTC-T) has been knocking on their door because of their web interface for old codes that banks use.
BUY
Ranks in the top 10% of his database. Company has put a big focus on introducing new products as well as controlling costs. Expecting good growth. Earnings expected to go from $0.22 to $0.24 in Sept/09 year-end. Speculative.
