Visx has been falling. One broker dropped the price target from $60 to $14, and the stock is on its way there too. It has been forced by competition to cut its licensing fees to $100 from $250 per use of the equipment. The centers that actually perform the surgery might be a better bet now than this company. Its revenues just won't be able to grow as fast now that they are merely 40% of what they were. |

Earnings come out today. Look for a big jump. The estimates are up around $0.38. I see amazing revenue increases! Maybe up to $0.40 EPS.I know lots of people getting the surgery and they are so impressed with the results! |

malcolm also posted about this in the question of the month folder. The company is probably a lot farther off its high after it dropped 41 percent on tuesday. Is the ruling really a huge blow or does that just make the stock a really attractive buy? what exactly is their business model? I see laser surgery exploding. How does VISX profit from it. They make the machines, but what is their revenue model besides a flat fee for each surgery? Its a company i'd definitely think about investing in. |

Here is an interesting company, especially since there are so many people out there now getting the vision correcting surgery. Its a rapidly exploding marketplace. Its nearly 25% of its high a few months ago. This might be a good time to get in. Here is a profile of the company: "VISX, Incorporated designs and develops proprietary technology and systems for laser vision correction. For the six months ended 6/30/99, total revenues totaled $116.5M, up from $56M. Net income totaled $41.3M vs. a loss of $6.4M. Revenues reflect increased systems sales and growth in license revenue due to higher procedure volume. Net income reflect the absence of a $35M legal settlement, higher margins and lower S/G/A as a percentage of revenues."
