S&P: strong buy after Q2 report.

The internet is growing, and sites wanting to make money need to reassure customers of their safety.
Long-term, the internet's potential and growth will cause this company to earn well, and overcome its debt. Short-term is anyone's guess.

One word: DEBTS!!!!!!!!! A huge hole of debts
Recs
Highly, highly overvalued on just about any fundamental metric.

Internet security! You can find the VeriSign on many secured sign in sites.

Internet is the core business of this era. There is no way
we can live without Internet. It is a kind of energy that people need to live. The more number of business grow, the more number of internet domain is required. In few years, there will be a domain name for each family. Just like phone.

The undisputed leader in the area is going to maintain the lead.

SECURITY IS GETTING THE NOD
Recs
Look for new mgmnt team to get company back on track and improve margins. See their Security certificates as becoming more meaningful. Also look for stronger presence in mobile connectivity and security.

Internet & wireless security is becoming a must, not an option. Verisign is well positioned in all areas. It seems to be headed on a climb to challange its all time highs. PE is a bit frothy but I believe it will grow its earnings. This should be a good long term hold.

VeriSign makes 80% of its revenue from domain names. This is a monopoly that will not last forever - once this monopoly is broken VRSN is history.
Additionally, their numbers are horrible. Their EPS is going from $1.70 to $0.18 which will raise its P/E ratio from 18 to over 170!
I am sorry if you are long this stock! This stock is headed to $12-15 a share (and at that price it will STILL be overpriced!)
The analysts have the end of year EPS at $1.07. So far this year they are at .22 cents for 6 months and the only reason they made money Q1 was because they sold off assets - otherwise they would have had a loss then as well. The trailing 12 months has them at (0.176 cents per share all four quarters combined! Take a look at the financials) They wont even get close to their mark by year end, even if they hit the rest of their estimates, which they wont.
This company is dying - why do you think their entire upper management bailed?
