De har ett återköpsprogram för egna aktier.
Det mesta av omsättningen sker i HongKong men de vill expandera internationellt och
just nu är endast 7 miljoner dollar av omsättningen utanför HongKong. Det borde betyda
otroliga tillväxtmöjligheter för ett så framgångsrikt företag.
De är också extremt effektiva och omsätter enorma belopp på varje anställd.
Jag har köpt en liten post här och aktien har hittills gått ner litet men jag ser ingen anledning
till att om det skulle fortsätta ner inte kunna köpa fler aktier.
