(Re: Blow-out quarter

I think I recall one somewhere around winter 95 to spring 96 where
MXIM and LLTC both beat by almost 100%. Then estimates were raised
leading to some warnings a bit later.)

This would have been almost mathematically impossible. The net margin would have remained between 28% and 36% at most in that time frame and sequential earnings were always within +/- 19%, so there could never have been anything close to a 100% mismatch to estimate. A few cents at most, probably no more than 15% of estimate, if that.

Next quarter should be 34.5 to 35.5 cents.

Regards, Don
