Internal strengths have been growing as well, as cash has piled up in this company. Would you like a stock priced at $15.80 per share that has $7 per share in cash in the till? Here you are. GLBL's annual revenues are about $1 billion dollars on a current run rate, or over $8.50 per share. The profit margin is strong, and over $224 million of that billion-dollar revenue over the trailing twelve months has fallen to the EBITDA line. Current expectations are for the company to earn $0.30 per share this quarter (March 2008 ending) on their way to an EPS figure of $1.54 for the 2008 year. The company maintains about $394 million in debt, or about $7 per share. In other words, they can pay off their debt with what's available in cash at the drop of a hat. In this analyst's mind, that makes GLBL a very nice asset acquisition play. (100 character max) Cancel
