I know it's partially the result of lots of one time stuff... But still, a forth quarter loss of $195.0 million or $3.95/share and a FY2002 loss of $274.1 million or $5.57/share?!? Golly, or more emphatically, gosh. Guidance is not an 'out of the woods' figure either (~15% below analysts' estimates). This entire situation is a shame for KLIC. They made a intelligent, prudent, and sustained effort to wean themselves from an unhealthy reliance on bonders. When all these coordinated efforts come very close to fruition, the equipment sector encounters a 1000-year flood. Or this is the logical hangover from a 10-15 year binge in the entire electronics industry..
