Cheap Stocks

We focus on undervalued small-cap stocks. Usually with a large cash cushion. We have developed a valuation formula that has been highly successful, especially on small tech stocks. Since 2006, we have closed out 49 stock positions with an average gain of 37%. 9 stocks have been taken over.

Top Image Systems, LTD, (NASDAQ--TISA)-BUY

TISA
Valuation-$5.46
Price September 27, 2007-$3.28

We are recommending TISA for purchase. TISA is trading at 60% of our valuation, which is a bit higher than we like but, if they do what they say they are going to do, our valuation should go higher soon.

After a very weak first quarter, Q2 results (6/30/2007) showed sales up 24% to $6.1 million, gross margin was 62%, and the company made $109,000 or $.01 per share on a “Non-GAAP” basis (un-taxed). The stock has traded as high as $4.44 and as low as $2.91 over the last year.

We think our valuation (and the stock price) will go higher due to:

1) Recent acquisitions that made the CEO claim in their Q2 press release that “Q3 revenue run-rate will be over $7.5 million”

2) A recent partnership with J&B Software that has resulted in 3 new deals worth over $300,000 each (announced 9/24)

3) Purchased a 51% interest in “AsiaSoft” to get into the fast growing China and Asian markets.


With $.78 a share in “net” cash (24% of the market cap), and 60% margins, making money and several publicly announced catalysts that we believe not been reflected in the stock price, we think this is a good bet.

The daily trading volume is only 16,000 shares, but this stock can be accumulated.

We think anything under $3.35 is a good price.
