I seem to be talking to myself on this board. Quick recap of GNTX quarter: .22 vs. .15 last year and .22 consensus. Revs up 30%, but really 23% when lost revs from GM strike are added back to last year's revs. Gross margin healthy at 43.9%, R&D and SG&A up, producing a slight decrease in OM (still 33.1%).

Looks like various factors will limit upside in earnings for the next two quarters. Don't expect much from the stock for the rest of the year. I'm still hoping to buy back the shares I sold at $32 closer to $25. Still a large holder though.

Look for announcement of communications mirror shipment AND viability of commercial glass product by year end (maybe even November). If the glass works, this is a whole new company.
