Over 100% return on equity, not a bad ROE for a MMO(massively multiplayer online) software...ie gambling. I'm hot for this one.

GA, as we all know is a leading MMORPG company in China, with its IPO price 15.5, started its journey in USA since Nov. Currently the price is really low, and Giant Online, its 2nd online MMORPG is doing pretty well in Chinese market. In close beta, already over 100,000 ccu. So I am sure with the commercial launch of Giant Online, GA will gain a lot of profit again.

GA is the fifth largest player in the multi-player gaming arena of china. It has 15% of market share. It is headed by a Yuzhu Shi, a successful enterpreneur. Just compare it with shanda and netease, you will see the potential.

China+gaming = >what else do you want?

Last night, Giant posted Q2 results in line with Street expectations, with revenue of $73.6 million and profits of 20 cents a share GAAP, 21 cents non-GAAP. Average revenue per user for its online games fell 3.2% from the year ago quarter, and 12.1% from Q1. The drop in part reflects the impact of the Sichuan earthquake earlier in the year.
