Retreating after topping its 2012 high ($17.70) with volume-driven gains earlier this week. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Reported strong results above the +25% minimum earnings guideline for 2 consecutive quarterly comparisons (C criteria) through Mar '13, but prior quarterly and annual earnings (A criteria) history leaves fundamental concerns. It went through a deep consolidation below its 200 DMA line then rebounded since last noted near its 2012 high in the 4/24/12 mid-day report."

Hitting new all-time highs yet again today and adding to a spurt of volume-driven gains. The 6/11/13 mid-day report noted - "Technically it broke out on 5/24/13, then held its ground and rallied further into new high territory with volume-driven gains. Strong sales revenues and solid earnings increases in the Oct '12, Jan and Apr '13 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods satisfy the C criteria. Up and down annual earnings (A criteria) is a concern. Limited and erratic history is a concern since it completed a Secondary Offering on 10/04/12."

Retreating from its 52-week high with above average volume behind today's loss following a "negative reversal" after touching a new 52-week high on the prior session. Extended from its prior highs in the $8 area which define initial chart support on pullbacks. Earnings increases in recent quarterly comparisons through Mar '13 were strong and satisfied the C criteria (above the +25% minimum guideline). Noted in prior mid-day reports with caution- "Underlying fundamentals (annual earnings history, A criteria) remain a concern. Recent quarters showed big earnings improvements over the year ago period. However, sales revenues increases have been erratic, below guidelines, and rather minuscule (at $5-8 million per quarter). Low priced stocks are discouraged from consideration under the fact-based investment system unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied."

Retreated from its 52-week high hit earlier this week and finding support near its 50 DMA line today after proposing a new Public Offering.

Held its ground in a tight range since noted in the 4/05/13 mid-day report with caution - "Proposed another Public Offering on 12/18/12, and it completed a Public Offering on 9/06/12, so this marks its third time going to the well for funding in less than a year. Limited earnings history is a concern and it is extended from prior highs in the $14 area where its 2/29/12 IPO was priced."

Recent quarterly comparisons show better sales and earnings, but large losses in FY '08 and '09 are a flaw concerning the A criteria.'"
