Compilation of Earnings Predictions:
Repost by prs_hope
The topic says it all, "Earnings Predictions - A compilation from InvestorVillage.com MB Members".
I am here copying exactly some of the earnings projections made by other Message
Board members (includes BULLISH and BEARISH numbers).
It would be great if others jumped in and shared thoughtful projections as well.
My apologies if
I failed to find other detailed earnings projections from other thoughtful members.
The format of this vehicle (MB) sucks for something like this, a spreadsheet or
database is what is needed but this is were we are and what we have.

OPBL processed 4,342,336 contracts to be exact in Q4. Assuming 5.9 million contracts
in Q1 as well as the same gross margin, total operating expense percentage, "other
expense", 19% tax rate, and number of outstanding shares as in Q4, I get $0.085
eps (basic) or $0.082 eps (diluted) and a revenue of $9,282,588.
Lots of assumptions here, but I think it's certainly possible. $0.07 would be
fantastic, $0.08 would be spectacular, and $0.09 would make me wet my pants.
Had to listen to last month's conference call again. Management did say that
they're gaining alot of new customers with more signing/logging onto to OPEX
as well and that smaller hedge funds they hadn't heard from before are getting
involved with electronic trading.

$9.3 mill Revs and .08 cents has been my exact prediction. With the stret using
conservative .01 or .02 quarterly EPS jumps throughout 2007, a .08 cent Q1 HAS TO
paint the picture of a $.40 year. My estimate is $.40-.50. Do you know what that
does to the stock following the report? Yeah, I dont have to tell you.

I need to do some more DD. However, my 1stQ number is in the low 8m, it would exceed
my expectations at 9.3m, which is ok. Then there's the cost of growing pains,
to deny it would be foolish. I say 6-6.5 close to .07. Two positives I do see is
a 3 point increase in margin%, (even in profit%) and some info on big new customers.

I think they will be around 8 million in revenue and 4-5 cents per share

I'm guessing .1 pre-tax and .07 post tax EPS for Q207.
That would give us a trailing EPS of about .17.

I have a trailing EPS .15, accounting for Jan and Feb (.03 and .02 respectively)
profits that already have been booked. They earned .02 for all of Q106, so we can
add .03 to the trailing EPS from two months ago.
Most current P/E is then, 6.5/.15 = 43.3 getting very cheap.
