Actuate Corp (ACTU)

COMP SOFTWARE, I have to give this one a thumbs up

ACTU at over US$6 was overvalued, too quick, too soon. No basics to base this valuation on like most other stocks that have gained 50%+ since March. The 'correction', some call it 'double dip' is bound to happen. September/October stocks will retreat, to rebounce end this year.

Two words-Business Intelligence

insiders selling buy back at 3.

There is huge upside potential for products like this. I work for a company that utilizes similar reporting products, they are in huge demand especially for competent companies.

9% insider ownership, 67% institutional, over the last 6 months owners have sold down 8% of their holdings, not the greatest sign in my book. $24M cash on hand and $30M LT debt, a solid and manageable balance sheet. I'm concerned that the corporate governance quotient is so low. Its making money and currently is fairly valued, not an immediate growth play, definately a long term play.

Provides software and services to develop and deploy Rich Internet Applications that deliver interactive content. Just had a big share by back. Gross marginss 81.12%, roe 17.27, nest 5 year growth 20.00%, peg 0.88

Will be a slow mover but generally up over the next year. Little debt - not a great sector to be in - still below its true value though.

Good prospects

O/U 40% - 90%

It is a great company that is going to go haywire when the resession subsides

HARSHLY AFFECTED BY US ECON

WAY UNDERVALUED BASED ON FUNDAMENTALS AND PROJECTED GROWTH

Opensource technology will become higher in demand not only by financial instituitions but by other tech giants such as Microsoft and Apple. As companies want to cut costs and manage products more effectively, actuate product's will be in high demand. Company is in excellent financial shape. Although revenue dropped, international sales went up 20% while also being able to turn a 100% profit with only five fewer employees. No debt, good inside ownwership, and future acquistion by bigger company definitely possibly. Company only hurt by U.S. economy but I expect even higher revenue from international sales in the future. Has huge market to expand in the U.S. as well as revenue from continuing customers and huge expansion opportunity internationally in countries such as Japan, China, etc. A must-buy but will not soar until U.S. economy stabilizes (mainly financial services).

I just think this one will turn around.

Member of the "Undervalued Club" bandwagon.
