Don't know what kind of performance others are looking for, but I kind of like NG. They still have a good amount of gold in the ground. ]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/49857/comments?source=feed#comment-314270 314270 Mon, 24 Nov 2008 23:34:11 -0500

I would imagine they were overcharging, charging for people that no longer existed (deceased) and denying people coverage...inflating profits. What do you think of the insider trades over the past year? Any comments on that? ]]> Mon, 29 Oct 2007 13:38:54 -0400 The article should read "trading within 10% of cash per share".

Points:
If this is anything like precedents of the "online education companies" not very long ago, shares could have a small rebound.

CrossProfit's point was spot on- the timing of the raid to the board meeting implies that the FBI had some hard evidence on individuals inside the company conducting criminal activity.

While Alan's point on value was well taken, I question why the stock is still trading at $30.00. Given Alan's $678m book value shares should be trading closer to $15.00, why the high premium>?

We find this amusing for several reasons.

First, how does anyone conclude anything without knowing the facts?
Second, the nature of the raids suggests criminal activity. In the past when criminal cause was proven, companies seized to exist, especially when the Board of Directors was involved. So, based on history, our colleagues' should conclude the exact opposite.
Third, even were we to get the information regarding the FBI raid, we still have to know what the other States are up to.
Fourth, we still don't know how the class action lawsuits will pan out. Again, if there is criminal activity (emphasis on 'if') then there is less of an impact from the class action suits. If not, then the company will have to shell out to shareholders due to misrepresentation. Either way, the stock has little room for sustainable upside.
Fifth, with regard to the problem being connected to only 25% of revenue, this is not how things work in reality. Once branded, the loss of ability to contract with public entities (should it come to that - we do not know anything more than what has been publicized), the rest of the business goes as well as no one wants to be left holding the bag. It is like a run on a bank.

Our guess (emphasis on guess) is that there is criminal activity implications as the FBI waited to raid until the Board was in session. Think about it!
