Gee let's get truly excited about a loss of 87 cents per share.

We need UMNIFORM MANDATORY ways for companies to report earnings.

1) Company xyz posts a loss/gain of x cents per share.
Income/loss from operations was $$$ vs $$$ last whatever.
Inventory level is xxxx vs yyyy last whenever.
Gross margins are xxx vs yyy last whenever
non-operational income was zzz vs last whatever
etc etc.
Just the hard facts.

2) No pro forma shit.
3) No xyz reports 100,000 new customers.
4) The BOLD headline MUST be ACTUAL gain/loss.

If the company wants to pontificate at the ass end, well ok I suppose.

What a crock.
