9  Great company with a cheap valuation  First two bullet points convey how “great” company is  Last convey how cheap the valuation is

10  Purpose Framework of what to say Build expectation  Example Buy recommend on Avid Technology (AVID), target price of $47.00, which is a 29% upside from yesterday’s close. My recommendation is based on 3 reasons: (a) strong growth from new products (b) opportunity for margin expansion from changes in sales mix and (c) attractive valuation

11  Purpose Helps place judge mentally with your stock  Ex. Avid Technology develops, market, sells & supports a wide range of software and hardware for digital media production, management and distribution. For example, one would use avid software to superimpose 2 photos. Avid had last fiscal revenue of 775 million, market cap 1.8 billion, 3 month avg. vol. 650 thousand, and 12 month P/E of 15.6x

12  Purpose Provide evidence on how revenue would grow  Example AVID will continue to post strong revenue growth drive by  Broadcasters’ conversion from tape to digital  Move to HD format. Only 500-600 of the top 2,500 broadcasters have transitioned from tape-based solutions 3 billion market opportunity. 80% of Avid’s 60,000 video customers are yet to upgrade to HD capabilities Average price of $35,000 for a HD system  $1.7 billion in potential sales.

13  Purpose Provide evidence on how margin could improve  Example Current operating margin at 4.7% Sales mix 50/50 between software/hardware Increasing software in mix for last 2 years  Can increase to as high as 70% Increase margin to 10%  Software margins better than hardware

14  Purpose Explain why the stock is undervalued  Example Company missed expectations by a penny and stock went down 25%  Overreaction Historical P/E of 23.5x  Peer group P/E of 20x 20x 2007 EPS of $2.34 = stock price of $47.00

15  Purpose Reiterate your investment thesis Provide a catalyst  Example Strong revenue growth prospects from tape -> digital Opportunity for margin expansion -> sales mix Compelling valuation for gain of 29% Launch of new product DigitalPro next month will be catalyst

16  Most questions will be based on what is actually said  Some questions will be based on what you deliberately did not say

17  How much time did it take for 500 broadcasters to transition from tape- based solutions?  What would make those 80% HD customers to upgrade  How did you determine the $35,000 price?

18  What are some risk factors?  What is the downside if those risks happen?  Why did the stock move way it did?  What is the street missing?

19 Neoprobe

20  Buy recommend on Neoprobe  Target price of $6.50, 35% upside  Recommendation based on 3 reasons: Presentation of Phase III Lymphoseek Data NDA submission 3Q 2011 Attractive valuation

21  Based out of Dublin, Ohio  Market leader in gamma detection devices (generating revenue)  On its way to be a leader in Oncology

22  http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona& article=47513888 http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona& article=47513888  The results from NEO3-09 are important not only in that they demonstrate that Lymphoseek is safe and well-tolerated but in many ways that it is a clinically superior lymphatic mapping agent to vital blue dye
