Mediware Information Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ--MEDW)
Valuation-$13.40
Price June 1, 2007-$6.98

I have been watching MEDW for a while, and the price has now fallen into our buying range.

Q3 results (3/31/2007) showed an 11% sales increase and $831,000 net income--$.10 per share (fully taxed and up from the prior year of $.08). There a bit over 8.4 million shares outstanding and they reported 73% gross margins and have $2.53 a share in cash (36% of market cap). There has been a lot of selling pressure of late, as the price has dropped from $8.60 at the end of April. Possibly a fund getting out. We just don’t see the reason for this drop.

With over $2.50 a share in cash, and these margins—and making money, we think this is a good bet.

We bought some this week at $6.99 and $6.95. Average daily trading volume has been nearly 30,000 shares.

We think anything under $7.00 is a good price.

MEDW is trading at 52% of our valuation.
