Реферат: Netscape Analysis Report Essay Research Paper Netscape

Netscape’s net loss decreased between 1994 and 1995, from $12 million to $3.4

million, respectively. Netscape spends a substantial amount of resources on

Research & Development Expense and Sales & Marketing Expense. Netscape,

although still unprofitable, has great potential for the next 5 years. In fact,

in the 4th quarter of 1995, Netscape showed a profit.

IX. Other Information

A. Netscape is involved in a project to put all of California’s public schools

on the Internet. (Star Ledger, “Net Day ?96″) B. America Online entered into a

partnership with Netscape to have Netscape’s browser software available to AOL

users. (3/12/96, DJIN) C. CompuServe entered into a licensing agreement with

Netscape to let CompuServe’s users use Netscape as their primary browser

software. (3/11/96, DJIN)

X. Conclusion

I would suggest this stock as a good investment in the Stock Market Game

because its price fluctuates enough to earn a decent profit from trading it.

I would not, however, suggest Netscape as a good investment in real life

until its price becomes lower, because it seems to be on a downward trend.

(Although Netscape is a good long-term investment as well, because of its

potential and the demand for the Internet)
