CAPS Rating:

The Company deals in emerging web communications marketplace, providing enterprise solutions and services that link an information-driven world. Its core product is the Mediasite web communication and content management system.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Recs 5 (SOFO) mpp100 (< 20) Submitted: 5/09/07 11:47 AM : Start Price: $3.78 SOFO Score: -64.47 IMHO this PPS offers an excellent entry point. While short term, I took a huge paper loss, I reevaluated the investment thesis and decided to hold and buy more. SOFO declined because the company had forecast the breakeven point is "any time now" for the past year or so and missed badly during the last quarter. The reason provided was the longer sales development and delivery cycle brought about by much bigger deals. They've expanded their sales and tech staff in anticipation of these larger deals but did not manage investor expectations well at all. Investors were expecting very close to break even results and those results didn't materialize, rather, a loss of .10 per share virtually doubled last year's QOQ losses. Mediasite is the flagship product and incorporates patented searchable audio for rich media presentations. The company also provides hosting and service and these areas have been expanding as revenue streams in addition to the hardware. It is a small cap that really did not manage expectations well at all so expect some significant volatility.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
