***IGAI Alert & Opinion

1. It has reached the bottom, IMO.

2. Heavily undervalued:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=IGAI.OB

Check out the Price/Sales ratio. At 0.01 it is by far the lowest of any OTC:BB penny stock that I know about. The P/E ratio on average should be between 1.5 and 2. Hence, the PPS should be 15 to 20 times higher. Some pennies have a P/S ratio of over 100, i.e., ACUP @ 112, and SKFT @ 225 (last time I checked).

Opinion

1. With any news, the PPS should see a sharp jump from here, because of:

* Low OS (only about 22MM)
* Proven revenue (the 20.6 MM revenue for the last 9 months, it's much higher than that of most stocks with OS in the same range, that have a PPS of over 0.1/share).
* Explosive growth (last Q Revenue up 419% compared to same Q of last year - see the last SEC filling, or for convenience see below)
* Increasing gross profit, and decreasing net revenue loss

Do your DD, and do it well. You'll be happy you did it, IMO
