EXHIBITION OPENS AT MOSI AND A PROMISE OF NO CHALLENGE
The controversial exhibit BODIES: The Exhibition opened Thursday, two days earlier than originally scheduled at Tampa's Museum of Science and Industry, amid concerns that the state would attempt to enforce the State Anatomical Board's ruling not to approve it's opening and shut it down.
Nearly 1,400 people viewed the 20 fully preserved cadavers and over 260 other organs, nearly triple the usual crowd. But those afraid that the state would attempt to close it need not worry: The Anatomical Board decided not to seek a court order backing up it's decision, and Attorney General Charlie Crist announced that he would not interfere with the show, as did local prosecutors.
And the reactions were generally positive, according to these news stories in today's Tampa Tribune, St. Petersburg Times, and Lakeland Ledger (I found it interesting that the Ledger sent Religion Editor Rev. Cary McMullen).
While I understand the Anatomical Board's concerns, these are unclaimed bodies from China acquired legally. This exhibition has some excellent educational relevance for everyone. I would like to view this myself, and there's time: BODIES: The Exhibition will be at MOSI until February, and tickets are not that expensive, especially after hours viewing (5-9 PM).

I learned that the company producing the Bodies show at MOSI Tampa is a publicly traded stock. What I found out was pretty stunning.
This is the first time I've had a chance to find an incredible stock and really kick the tires. A little while I found out the company that is putting on the Bodies show in Tampa is publicly traded and they are also the same company that salvaged the Titanic artifacts and exhibits them around the world.
I was shocked to find out they are profitable and growing and it is still under $2 a share.
Everyone in Florida seems to know about the Bodies show at the Museum of Science & Industry - MOSI - in Tampa. It has been all over the news and now that it is running it no longer seems so controversial as it did a few days ago.
The crowds are already breaking box office records. I went on the first day on Thursday and it was busy, busy, busy. Today is the official Saturday grand opening and a friend called me to say the place is overflowing, they've got traffic cops and they expect 5,000 paying customers today.
I spent all Thursday night researching this company, Premier Exhibitions, and I started buying the stock immediately yesterday. I found out the following about PXHB

This company has been around for a while and they are going profitable. I found a link to a recent shareholder conference call. When I listened to this I got really excited.

They are expected to triple their exhibition schedule in the next 6 months. That means a half dozen Titanic and a half dozen Body shows running SIMULTANEOUSLY! Twice a year. That is two dozen shows a year producing on average a million plus dollars profit each.
This company has less than 30 million shares outstanding and they are not handing out shares like candy. And they are profitable now.
By my calculations, in the next year they could earn as much as 75 cents to a full dollar per share and this stock is trading under $2 now!
By my calculations then PXHB.OB could be trading at $20-30 in 12-18 months. I have never found a stock like this and definitely not one that I was able to invest in as it became famous overnight. You can't buy publicity like they have been getting.
I think the company is prohibited from promoting their stock at the museums they exhibit in so I figured I better get the word out that the producers of these incredible shows is a PUBLIC COMPANY and it looks like the stock is severely undervalued (sure, I bought some, so I have a vested interest now too!)
The conference call link I included above has them telling the next earnings should be way over the last quarter. Looking at the calendar I figure mid-October will be the reporting date for the quarter closing end of this month, August 2005.
If they earned .02 for the quarter last time with their first profitable quarter, I figure we could see as much as .05 per share or about 20 cents annually in 6-8 weeks. That should be worth at least $4 a share.
I can't figure it out why the stock is so low, but with the worldwide publicity this company is receiving it looks like the stock is going to start ripping up the joint. And it is undervalued by at least 50-80% so I think it will be $5-7 by the end of the year. I hope some of you do your own homework and check this out.
Go google the recent events:

and you can see some small minded folks tried to stop the show. Florida attorney general Crist backed off and said he will not enforce the board ruling. The show goes on and there is nothing they can do now. Like I said, you can't buy publicity like this.
This is the first time I've found a stock this undervalued that I can clearly see is going to explode in earnings and get enormous free publicity from now on.
PXHB.OB is the stock. Check it out
An update on my August post about the Bodies show in Tampa. Premier Exhibitions is about to open another one in NYC at the South St. Seaport (Tampa show still running to big crowds). Since I mentioned it, their stock PXHB is more than double and it looks like it will quadruple from here in the next year (their earnings are growing like crazy).
