We started following ABTL last year because it was a net net stock with a market capitalization of $19.4M at its December 10, 2008 close of $0.43. We estimated the company’s liquidation value some 80% higher at $35.3M or $0.78 per share. Although the stock has risen some 18.6% to close Friday at $0.51, ABTL is still worth 50% more than its stock price indicates so we plan to maintain our position.
