Tom,

Agreed, as noted in an earlier ELTE note. My main reason for bringing it =
up was only as a comparison to 2000 and the resultant EPS. In a year =
where about 20% of the software development cost has been capitalized vs =
a year where it was written off, the YoY or QoQ EPS growth numbers are =
going to look good.

  Katherine,

  Under GAAP, wouldn't software development costs be written off:

  a) upon abandonment of the project (written off in full)
  or
  b) capitalized and amortized as the software begins to be marketed (in =
which case it would be written off over the projected sales life of the =
software).

  If the software was still under development as of the end of Q3, and =
was still a viable project going forward, it would seem to me to be too =
early to begin to put it on the books aside from the salaries and other =
labor costs already being counted elsewhere in the expenses.

    Thanks for clearing this up Ian. Things like this can't be "seen" in =
the records available online. Just goes to show that with a microcap =
such as this, due diligence needs to be deep enough to uncover these =
clues. (And conversely, the same would hold for uncovering rats in the =
attic for other microcaps!)

    Have you made a decision as to whether to "sell on the technicals" =
or will you wait for the next earnings announcement and conference call?

    The estimates I am using are from my VectorVest software. If there =
are no analysts covering, they use past EPS and "significant =
developments" to make a forward estimate. As I don't generally follow =
microcaps, I'm not sure how reliable these numbers are. When I wrote my =
note yesterday, that's why I looked at the historical Rev/EPS numbers =
myself before taking their low forward EPS number at face value.

    One thing I did note in the financials from last quarter is that =
they have not been writing off some of their software development costs =
this year. From the 10Q 11/14/01:
    Research and development expenses for this year's third quarter of =
$1.7 million (or 9.4% of revenue) increased slightly from $1.6 million =
(or 12.5% of revenue) in 2000. Such expenses for the first nine months =
of 2001 totaled $5.0 million (or 10.0% of revenue) compared to $4.4 =
million (or 11.0% of revenue) for the first nine months of the prior =
year. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries =
and expenses of the Company's research and development personnel and =
outside consultants. The higher expenses in 2001 over the same period =
last year reflect costs for work to design and develop certain products =
to support the Company's expansion into new Professional Services =
Automation markets, partially offset by reduced expenses for Elite.com. =
Research and development expenses exclude internally developed software =
costs that were capitalized totaling approximately $320,000 for the =
third quarter and approximately $900,000 for the first nine months of =
2001. No software development costs were capitalized in 2000.=20

    The increased R&D effort for EIS is expected to continue through =
2001 as the Company completes development of its new product lines. The =
Company is committed to maintaining strong research and development =
efforts so it can continue to provide innovative software solutions as =
the needs of its customer base and target markets change.=20

    Something like this would certainly make 2001 EPS numbers "look" =
better when comparing QoQ or YoY.

      Katherine:

      I have listened to the last 2 conference calls, and management =
paints a very different picture. The acquisition from last year has been =
negligible to overall revenues, and has not contributed to earnings yet. =
Rather, the fact that they are in a new product cycle, expanding =
internationally, and are moving into new verticals, has been given as =
their reason for the recent growth. Moreover, they claimed last Q that =
existing backlog should make Q4 2001 and Q1 2002 comparable with the =
last 2 quarters. They also seemed confident that their customer base and =
recurring revenue stream had finally reached a "critical mass" that =
would ensure continuing growth. They weren't sure what exact growth rate =
they would have, but they were confident growth would continue.

      Finally, they were confident that the Law Manager acquisition from =
last year was finally about to contribute meaningfully to earnings.

      In the face of this, it strikes me as odd that there would still =
be an active covering analyst with such low estimates. Maybe that means =
that the next earnings report (rumored to be on Feb. 11) will be the one =
that either breaks them, or sends them to a new level as they finally =
have a share price over $10 and a market cap over $100,000,000. We'll =

              Hi Tom

              This is what I don't get, and I'm not trying to be =
objectionable, just trying to find out how you'd get $.16/quarter given =
the company's history. When I look at this, I see OK growth in revenues, =
but the company continuously has good and bad quarters. I noticed in the =
10Q that they capitalize software development and then write it off in =
chunks every so often (not uncommon) and it's possible that these =
negative quarters every so often are related to that. I'm guessing if I =
were to dig further into the financials I would get to know them better. =
I know that they did an acquisition in 2000, and I'd assume that the =
growth in EPS would be related. I look at Sept/Oct 99 and see really =
nice quarters just like the last two we've seen recently, but they are =
then followed by negative or so-so quarters. That raises red flags and =
would lead me to question whether the growth pattern shown recently can =
be projected into the future.

          Hi Katherine,

          I see 16 cents as easy based on the last 4 sequential quarters =
(last two were 16 and 23 cents). Sales appear to be accelerating thru =
Q3, so even a moderate slowdown in acceleration should still leave them =
well over 16 cents/qtr.

                Thanks a lot for the chart analysis. The low volume =
during the new high to $13.50, and the high volume/no progress days on =
1/10, 1/11, and 1/15 were the things that concerned me. I convinced =
myself that the low-volume high was just a case of 'too much, too fast' =
off the $5 October low. The recent high volume/no movement days are what =
concern me.

                There shouldn't be much concern with P/E. The company =
claimed that Q4 2001, and Q1 2002 were already filled with existing =
backlog, and I figure that a minimum of $0.16 per Q is easy - so 4 =
months from now, the ttm EPS will be at least $0.70 if not more, and the =
P/E at current levels would be under 20. Given their industry group and =
recent growth rate, a much higher price could easily be supported. But I =
would like to see more signs of volume accumulation here.=20

                After the next earnings report the IBD EPS ranking =

weekend review. Perhaps it will be a month or so before the next clear =

                Thanks again,

                  Hi Ian,

                  Your question has me wondering whether the sell rules =
that I follow translate perfectly to thinly traded stocks. But I'll tell =
you what I see and the way I would read it if I were to own it:

                  -After the B/O at 7.13, stock moves up and =
consolidates for about 5 weeks. This is a "valid" consolidation so that =
makes the previous base low 8.01 which was printed on 11/23/01.
                  -Just as a quick check for "overextension" that means =
that the stock is 70% above the 200dMA (7.02), 15% above the 50dMA =
(10.43) and 49.6% above the base low (8.01). It gets a yellow flag for =
being 70% above the 200dMA according to WON's sell rule #34, but does =
not get a red flag for the Rubberband Sell Rule.
                  -After the consolidation and breakout 12/18 the stock =
has started to show signs of stress. This could easily be market =
related, but no way to tell.
                  -1/2/02: New high on low volume. Red flag.
                  -1/10/02 & 1/11/02- two days with little or no price =
progress on high volume. Red flag.
                  -With 1 yellow and 2 red flags I thought it worth =
doing a PE Extension check. I've reconstructed the PE at the time of the =
B/O in October using trailing EPS numbers for the prior quarters. That =
puts it at $7.13/$.29 =3D 24.59. The extension warning would then be a =
forward PE of 24.59*2.21=3D 54.3. Let's see. DGO doesn't have any =
estimates, which means it isn't followed by enough analysts. I checked =
the internet to see if I could find anything and ran across this EPS/Rev =
snapshot:

                  =
http://yahoo.marketguide.com/MGI/mg.asp?target=3D/stocks/companyinformati=
on/highlights&Ticker=3DELTE

                  I am alarmed by the essentially flat revenues over the =
last 4 years, so I am going to go with the EPS estimates in my =
VectorVest software which reads a measly $.02. That puts the current =
forward looking PE at $11.98/$0.02 =3D 599! I'll have to mark that Red =
Flag.

                  One note is that its industry is fairly healthy, =
consolidating after rising, not overly extended and currently ranked in =
the 2nd quartile.

                  I'll let you take it from there!
