I had been wondering how the falling rubber prices were going to affect sales. I still haven't seen any upward movement. Now we will be able to watch and better reference it to income from rubber sales. The following is how CHRB was able to keep from using the 32,000,000 shares owned by Everbright from showing in EPS figures. This along with 10-1 reverse split has caused our value to go down since the posting. Following quotes are from 10-Q recent.
"The computation of primary earnings per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996, are based on the weighted average number of common stock outstanding after giving effect to dilutive stock options and series B convertible preferred stock, which are included as common share equivalents using the treasury stock method and assumed to be converted to common stock, respectively. The average number of shares of common stock outstanding excludes the 32,000,000 shares of common stock with restricted rights in receiving dividends or participating in the event of liquidation of the Company, which might otherwise be payable to holders of the Company's capital stock. The shares of restricted common stock were issued pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated July 22, 1996 (Filed herewith as Exhibit 10.27). The number of shares used in computing the primary earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share are 29,395,885 and 31,635,071, respectively."
All this said and done- CHRB is showing what it is capable of doing outside the rubber sales. For me this is a huge YAHOOOOOOOOOOO. "This decrease was offset by the increase in procurement of materials and supplies by 153%". Better than I expected and just the start I hope. Tony |
