Dan, depending on how you crunch the numbers you will get different PEs. PE OF 84 is for the combined ASCEND with all charges over the last two quarters, TRUE trailing PE OF PURE ASCEND without charges is only 42.00 EPS 1.19. LAST 4 QUATERS EPS ARE AS FOLOWS 20c-32c-36c(27c after charge)-31c(-26c after charge). If you include the charges, the PE BECOMES 84-90. PE on estimates of operating earnings is more imp. than trailing PE because of all the confusion. Next 12 months PE ON ESTIMATES stands approx. 25-30 RANGE. ESTIMATES ARE 2.00 FOR 1998. Hope this clears the confusion??. Good luck.
