"Consider the following scenario. Suppose the company is heading towards 3rd quarter after tax earnings of $5 mill - around 17 cents. However, AT&T gives them a call and says that they have another $80 mill in contracts if they can handle it. Suppose that Kealy must decide whether to A) say no thank you - I want to show the shareholders nice profits or B) spend $3 million to train another
300 workers at $10,000/ worker - and take the big contract."

Well, consider the following scenario:

Suppose the company is heading towards 3rd quarter after tax earnings of $2,5 mill - around 8 cents. A good friend (Snake) gives me a call and says that I can triple my money in 1 year with SUN and I say: No, thank you. I wait till Joe get things straight. I'm patient. And if he needs another 3 years to train his workers (OR WHATEVER!!) I don't mind. Ok, I loose 2 Mio $ gains with SUN but it's nice to see that IFCI's revenue doubles every year. That gives me a real good feeling.
