remarks:

1. a 20% stock dividend will go exdate 30 april 2012.
2. a 10 centavo cash dividend went exdate 27 feb 2012.
3. web's trailing p/e of 22.26x is quite expensive for my taste.
4. its net income is growing at an amazing compounded growth rate of 42% per annum! (from 2007) and i think they can maintain their current dividend for the next 3-4 years.
5. fantastic roe and roa
6. superb net income margin of 78.6% (the web annual report mistakenly wrote 60%, the previous year's nim)
7. web is liquid.
8. low debt.
9. web is not a trader's stock. price is not that volatile for short term players to profit from.
10. web is potentially an ideal regular dividend paying stock for buy and hold investors.
