I either use 1H x 2 or use the growth rate to project 2H profit as the company may experience seasonality. So if 1H09 grow by x% over 1H08, i will assume that 2H09 will also grow by x% over 2H08. Hope that explains without going into the details.Mr. IPOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449331327581040185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558835596101121602.post-2172546878677347652010-03-13T10:05:10.985+08:002010-03-13T10:05:10.985+08:001HFY2009 profit is only 3.7M.

Imagine if they are selling vendor shares without any dividend promise, under such market, it may not be so enticing to investors.Mr. IPOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449331327581040185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558835596101121602.post-24229455118117876072010-02-11T13:10:59.750+08:002010-02-11T13:10:59.750+08:00"It is interesting to note that the company i..."It is interesting to note that the company is paying out a majority of the $ it raised from the IPO as dividends as the amount raised from selling new shares amounted to $9.1m but the Company will be paying out approximately $6.7m as dividends"<br />--- I wonder why the company need to raise this IPO when it can jus wait for a yr (ie the divident it generate can pay for itself) .......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
