IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS on the Quality of GROWTH....
Companies whose Revenue and Earnings grow fast, say 200 to 300% per Year, usually do so through acquisitions... The drawback is Dilution of outstanding shares and/or Cash expenditure and accumulation of non-tangible Assets, such as Goodwill that has to be amortized over a period of time, thus reducing Net Earnings....
SEVU's Revenue/Orders GROWTH of 1100% so far this Year is REMARKABLE in that it's all INTERNALLY Derived... So there is minimum Dilution and no accumulation of useless intangible Assets...

So, SEVU needs to Book another $11 Million in Sales and/or Orders, to reach its Year 2000 Target, which may or may not be achievable... In the meantime, compared to 1999, it has managed an 1100% increase and counting, entirely due to Internal Growth...
