-5.83...out at .60. Sorry to bail on you guys I just don't have the capital to sit around and wait for this one...I really don't see a strong catalysis for MICG and with that Insider selling, its going to be a while before this one moves, imo. Good luck to you guys…I missed the original run and never should have chased. Never stay with a stock for the wrong reasons.

I don't know guys, its almost at where it was before the run, where it was stable, I think once it hits that point it should be a pretty safe buy. Put it on the watch list, if it goes below the point it was before the run, might be a good rollback.

If you look back the CEO did buy some shares, its just like that one guy selling all those insider shares. I haven't gotten in this one yet, but If there are 2, 10% gainer days in a row or if it hits where it was before the last run, or below that im getting in.

jumped the gun and got in at .60 last week before i did much research on this one (which was stupid). I'm hoping to see another small jump in the next few days then i'm out. I just dont have much confidence in this one but i hope i'm wrong.

Sorry to hear that guys, but if you forget about the past and look into the future the chart looks better than ever. Its at where it was before it ran under the same conditions as it ran last time. Which means it could run exactly the same because all the fundamentals are still there. And if not id call this a pretty safe play, the stock just had a small run and people realized it didn't go up that much and took their leave as it became too bearish. Once my stupid Bank of America account works, this is going to be one of the first I get into. Along with maybe scll.

Microfield Group Reports 2006 Results Tuesday February 20, 4:05 pm ET
PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Microfield Group, Inc. (OTCBB: MICG - News) announced financial results today for the twelve months ended December 30, 2006. The Company produced revenue of $76,141,000 for the year 2006 compared to revenue of $57,935,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. This increase of $18,206,000 is the result of a full 12 months of revenue in 2006 from the acquisitions of EnergyConnect (ECI) and Christenson Electric (CEI). CEI was acquired on July 20, 2005, and ECI was acquired on October 13, 2005. ADVERTISEMENT
On a GAAP basis, the Company had net income of $833,000 or $0.01 per share for the twelve months ended December 30, 2006, compared to a net loss of $77,640,000 or $3.13 per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005.
On a pro forma basis for the twelve months ended December 30, 2006, the Company had a non-GAAP operating loss of $4,189,000 and a non-GAAP net loss of $5,219,000 or $0.08 per share. This non-GAAP operating loss excludes $1,442,000 of stock-based compensation expense included in the GAAP operating loss. This non-GAAP net loss excludes $8,319,000 of gain from warrant liability re-measurement and also excludes $825,000 of interest from late registration included in GAAP net income. Each of these three items is a non-cash income or expense.
GAAP basis sales, general and administrative costs for the twelve months ended December 30, 2006 were $14,912,000, compared to $8,988,000 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. This increase in overhead expense of $5,924,000 represents an increase of 65.9% in year over year expenses, and is due to a full twelve months of expenses in 2006 from the acquisitions of EnergyConnect (ECI) and Christenson Electric (CEI). CEI was acquired on July 20, 2005, and ECI was acquired on October 13, 2005. Also contributing to the increase were costs incurred in 2006 for stock-based compensation, and $362,000 in compliance with the new Sarbanes-Oxley legislation. There were none of either of these costs in 2005.
Commenting on the 2006 results, Rod Boucher, Chief Executive Officer, said, "We achieved significant progress at Microfield this year as we integrated the Wind business and EnergyConnect into the company. Wind contributed a substantial portion of our revenue growth. Additionally, we grew ECI revenue by three times, and sales activity in 2006 increased our participant base tenfold. While integrating the wind business proved difficult this year," continued Boucher, "we have implemented management changes and bolstered internal controls and procedures to correct this problem."
