JDN & Thread:

Just my observation on the affair. Management made a mistake in leading analyst's to beleive earnings would be 6 cents a share (companies lead analysts all the time). Unfortunately they were not specific to factor in the preferred shares. While management thought they did well it was an adverse surprise to the analysts.

We all make mistakes and this management team is learning the hard way. I'm sure they're not happy with their stock and options being underwater as well.

What's next. Expect some lawsuits. Its the environemnt we live in. When they're announced the stock will retreat some more. You'll have to decide if you want to hold on for the recovery. I expect one BUT it will take more than one quarter. I would not expect to see CMND back in double digits before 3rd qtr. A lot of creditability and damage to repair. Not easy and the only way is to have management continue to execute their business model (i.e. increase sales and profits).

This stock can recover but it will take time. I'm just basing my opionion on stocks like FORE from $40 down to $11 and now back to $24.
CTXS $55 down to $10 now @ $99.

Never easy to have patience but if you believe in the fundamentals, etc.

Good luck in whatever decision you make.
