Maybe not yet but these #'s give support to EGGS future revenue projections

-1999 revenues approx $500,000,000
- 2000 revenues projected to rise 45-50% total expected revenues approx $750,000,000
- 2001 revenues projected to increase 35-40% total expected revenues approx $1,050,000,000!!!
- year 2002 Egghead expects to achieve profitability, assuming revenues grow a modest 30% total revenues will be in EXCESS of $1.3BB.

Personally, I think EGGS' management is very conservative and they will achieve profitability before 2002. That is just my opinion and I have no hard data to back it up.

I agree. I think they want to get the dilution of the merger stock issuing and the expense of merger related items behind them, without creating more ongoing expense. The result should be a faster track toward profitability.
I don't think Egghead management is enamored with the bragging rights for the sales volume as some other e-commerce entities seem to be. Now that they can reach the top 5 revenue levels, the priority will be to beat the others to true profitability. Jerry Kaplan wants a true bottom-line success on his resume, after a disappointing previous project.
Current sales trends at Egghead, measured from a microcosm of knowledge,indicates double the unit sales, and at much higher dollar values from the previous quarter. I am really looking forward to published results for Oct-Nov for sales.

Weird! Last year this stock was trading pretty high, only to presently see it drip & bounce lower & lower........What gives?! Is it the 5 millions shares in the process of dilution? (standard-disclaimer).

Amazon Leads in Web Traffic

By Monica Summers
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Web retailers, who once again topped online traffic charts last week, were joined by some unlikely competitors as two major computer makers saw a heals Toys R Us Inc. (NYSE:TOY - news) and eToys Inc. (NasdaqNM:ETYS - news), and online music retailer CDnow Inc. (NasdaqNM:CDNW - news).

But joining the ranks of Web perennials like Amazon.com and eBay this week were Dell Computer Corp. (NasdaqNM:DELL - news) and Gateway Inc. (NYSE:GTW - news), which on a separate measure saw significant jumps in average daily visitors for the week ending Dec. 19.

Dell's site (http://www.dell.com) saw a 75 percent jump in traffic with 171,000 average daily visitors, while Gateway, which had been boasting Christmas delivery on some of its computers ordered by Dec. 23, saw a 40 percent jump in visitorship, averaging 108,000 visitors per day.

Online software retailer Egghead.com Inc. (NasdaqNM:EGGS - news) saw a 42-percent jump in traffic averaging 228,000 visitors every day, while competitor Beyond.com Corp. (NasdaqNM:BYND - news) enjoyed a 37-percent increase to 144,000 visitors per day.

Further boosting the year's online Christmas frenzy, greeting card companies American Greetings Corp. (NYSE:AM - news) and Egreetings Network Inc. (NasdaqNM:EGRT - news) both saw a jump in daily traffic as folks opted for the quick and easy way to send friends and family holiday tidings.

American Greetings' site (http://www.americangreetings.com) saw an 88-percent jump in average daily visitors topping 141,000 a day, while Egreetings (http://www.egreetings.com), the newly public electronic greeting card service, saw a 39-percent rise, raking in 228,000 Web surfers each day.

Online magazine retailer Enews.com enjoyed a healthy hop in its average daily Web traffic last week when visitorship jumped 161 percent over its previous weekly average, according to Media Metrix Inc.

On Dec. 16, Web book retailer Barnesandnoble.com said it planned to acquire up to a 40 percent equity stake in Enews.com in an effort to expand its presence in the $9 billion magazine subscription business.

Washington, D.C.-based Enews.com, which offers subscriptions to nearly 1,000 magazines at discount prices, had about 141,000 visitors per day for the week ending Dec.

Dorine,

But is the hit total they are comparing equal to the cumulative total of the separate, pre-merge Eggs+ONSL web site hits?
