Peter,

No. They said the "list price" for the items was $3,000 - $5,000.

Of course, hospitals rarely pay "list price" when buying things from a major distributor, as there are almost always volume discounts in place which apply to ALL products purchased from that distributor (Ohmeda, in this case). Likewise, major distributors usually negotiate very favorable terms from the manufacturer.

I'd be surprised if the committed business creates anything close to $10 million for the distributor's top line, and only a tiny fraction of the distributor's revenue will end up in CCSI's bottom line.
