This is just a speculation, the reality will not be seen until we can trade shares again, but I think 1 BTC /share is bit on a cheap side.

edit: and, we have to remember that mining wasn't the only profit generator here.
I hate to break the speculation bubble, but please be aware that the posted (original) business plan only guaranteed a break-even first for the initial investors at a share price of 0.1BTC/share. After that the business plan is a bit fuzzy. It is up to the discretion of bitfountain, under the consultation of the ASICMINER board members, on how the "surplus" (profit beyond the 0.1BTC/share break even point) will be allocated. Large parts may simply go to a cash fund of the company for future growth and operations.

Thus if you acquire shares at a higher price point you may not be guaranteed break-even through dividend payments. You may however be able to get dividends and sell the shares after a while for a profit.

It all depends on strategic decisions down the road.

you dont get it. that doesnt change anything. if you assume they are taking strategic decisions in the best interest of shareholders and bitfountain (which i hope is true), better allocation of profit only results in higher long-term share value. I dont see how this relates to the above speculations.

anyway, if a share is really worth 1 btc, less or even more remains to be seen. as soon as we can trade again, market will show,
