Web analytics platforms [i.e. Omniture (OMTR), WebTrends, Fireclick and Google (GOOG) Analytics] have quickly morphed into sophisticated marketing measurement packages that help marketers track campaign ROI [return on investment] and monitor KPIs [key performance indicators] across multiple Web and [in fact] off-line marketing channels. Such solutions are now poised to take market share from popular “single channel action trackers” like Linkshare, Doubleclick’s Performics and Valueclick’s (VCLK) Commission Junction - even free-standing email campaign management packages. The small to medium enterprise sector is everyone’s growth market [looking forward] so look for things to really heat up on the M&A front.
The future clearly belongs to companies like J.L. Halsey (JLHY) who are moving in the direction of a single package offering [CRM email, Web and marketing metrics, content management, search metrics, etc]. I’ll bet a nickel Jeff Pullen of Q4Digital understands this opportunity...

A couple of other interesting facts.

The predecessor company was Nova Care and they are benefiting from a loss carry forward.

NovaCare sold its name as part of the sale of the PROH business and subsequently changed its name to NAHC, Inc. On June 18, 2002, in a transaction approved by NAHC’s stockholders at a special meeting, NAHC merged with and into Halsey, its wholly-owned subsidiary. The purpose of the merger between NAHC and Halsey was to implement transfer restrictions on the Company’s common stock in order to preserve the Company’s federal income tax net operating losses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company recorded a $73,000 gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, relating to adjustments to the $374.1 million loss on disposal of discontinued operations that was originally recorded in fiscal year 2000. The adjustments consist primarily of a gain of $24,000 resulting from the collection of accounts receivable that were previously written off by the Company and a gain of $49,000 resulting from reductions of expense accruals to adjust other liabilities remaining from discontinued operations. The reductions in expense accruals include amounts for litigation related costs and legacy insurance expenses.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, the Company recorded a $560,000 gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, relating to adjustments to the $374.1 million loss on disposal of discontinued operations that was originally recorded in fiscal year 2000.
