Sskillz, here's an interesting comparison between AUTO and USOO.
AUTO just reported its FY05 results; pretax income was 0.063/fd share (untaxed) At current price of 0.80, that would give a PE of 12.7x.
USOO, if looking at TTM pretax income adjusted for the lawsuit expenses/income, has reported untaxed 0.26/fd share. That would yield a PE of 5x.
The PE valuation disparity is tremendously in favor of USOO. AUTO appears fairly valued to me based upon adjusted net earnings, but revenue growth is a bit stronger.
