China New Media has demonstrated its ability to land large contracts for its LCD outdoor advertising platform. Its 100 LCD order in Beijing, when fully built out, will generate revenue of approximately $150 million with net margins of 30%. U.S. listed China media companies have traded as high as 40x EPS. A 30 P/E on fiscal 2011 projected net income would put the stock in the $6.00-$7.00 range. A listing on NASDAQ would most likely give the stock a substantial boost. The Company plans to apply for NASDAQ in the near-term. With only 1.1 million shares in the float, early investors have the opportunity to benefit immensely in 2010. RedChip research target is conservative.
