SUPERZAHLEN, jetzt KAUFEN

war wohl nixx. Heute morgen hätte man noch für 39 EUR verkaufen können, jetzt stehen sie bei 31 EUR. Trotz der guten Zahlen. Manchmal reagiert die Börse halt ziemlich merkwürdig, zum Glück bin ich langfristig in Vignette investiert.

Da freue ich mich gestern abend über die guten Zahlen bei Vignette und Infospace. Nachbörslich und vorböslich waren bei 15 bis 20 % im plus und wo stehen sie jetzt?

Vignette: - 20 %
Infospace: - 16 %


Ist heute echt mein Tag...

wollte ich eigentlich heute kaufen. Bloß gut daß ich's (bis jetzt) gelassen hab. Bei den großen Umsätzen heute in FSE hat's wieder etlich Leute eiskalt erwischt. Sell on good news in Reinkultur, für mich auch ein Zeichen für überreichlich vorhandene Unsicherheit am Markt.

*kopfschüttel*

werden wir bei 30 € einen boden sehen? oder geht es noch mal richtung 22€ was meint ihr?
stutzig machen mich die -20% in amerika. allerdings ist der short anteil mit 4% wohl noch tragbar.

Vignette (VIGN) 29 7/16 -4 15/16: VIGN shares are getting hit before this afternoon's Q3 earnings release. Concern about rising DSO continues to make the rounds on trading floors after last quarter's rising DSO level (over 120 days) was cited for much of the stock's decline. Last quarter's rise in DSO can be attributed in part to the company's conservative revenue recognition policy by which sales are only recognized upon successful implementation of the software. Implementation takes several months, so although Vignette may have already signed a contract and received payment 30-45 days later, they won't pencil in the revenue until two or three months after the contract is inked, therefore DSO is more erratic than industry averages. Last quarter, the company signed their biggest deal to date right before the quarter close, a $10 mln Terra Networks agreement. The deal showed up in A/R, but wasn't recognized as revenue until Q3 (instead shows up as deferred revenue under current liabilities in Q2). This conservative accounting is not the standard in software, where most companies will recognize revenue upon delivery. Since DSO does not account for deferred revenue, VIGN's DSO appear artificially higher than competitors. Anyway, word from the analysts is that Q3 will see DSOs return to a more normal level in the 80-85 days area. Because the revenue stream is so lumpy, estimates vary widely. Bigger deals take longer to implement and therefore, longer to show up on the top line. The Street doesn't like the choppiness from quarter to quarter, but conservative accounting is no reason to punish a stock. That said, look for VIGN to meet or beat their ($0.01) consensus EPS estimate with any upside marking the company's third straight profitable quarter. Revenue estimates are hard to come by and vary widely, but we would consider anything north of $120 mln a very successful quarter and anything south of $105 mln a disappointment. Just as important (some would argue more important), is the backlog; last quarter's level was $75.5 mln. The company continues to chalk up impressive deals and gain inroads to new clients through strategic agreements with such heavyweights as IBM and Intel. Last quarter's backlog provides good visibility into a strong Q3. - Matt Gould, Briefing.com
