Also, here's an interesting puzzle: When DHTI's quarterly report came out, it was assumed that the .17/share earnings included the full 3 million dollars from the licencing pact with Sunquest. Yet, here's what the official 10Q report, which was placed online (on May 6 or 7) in EDGAR says:
"Contracts receiveable as of March 31, 1997 increased $1,715,000 to $2,408,000 as compared to the balance of $693,000 on December 31, 1996. The company entered into a licencing agreement with Sunquest resulting in initial licencing fees receivable in three installments of $1,000,000 each. The first installment was collected upon signing on February 7, 1997. The remaining two installments are due no later than February 7, 1998 and February 7, 1999, and as of March 31, 1997 had a carrying value of $1,798,000. The remaining change is attributable to scheduled collections on monthly installment receivables from radiology information system customers."
So, my conclusion is that Dynamic exceeded the .03 estimate even after discounting the initial one million dollar licencing fee from Sunquest. Am I missing something (maybe that's why estimates were raised after the quarterly report came out)? |
