Look Pass Pass, Ascend DID make only .02 on way under 1/3
revenues for July. Companies DO NOT lie, exaggerate, understate,
or whatever in 8K filing. Its not a filing they wanted to make
that's for sure.
Look at the 8K yourself, at Edgar.
The issue is impact. It's perfectly possible this is only short
term issue. It's gonna impact the quarter ... if they didn't think
there was a strong likelyhood of that they never would have filed
the 8K, extraordianry events filing...
The trouble is the damage this may/probably does to credibility
in analyst community. I don't KNOW exactly how much the impact, but
to me it doesn't look good.
Not complete lack of trust. But dark cloud... A view that unlike
certainly CSCO, management provides less "Visibility".
That's my take.
If I had the balls, I would have shorted as soon as I read the 8k,
but frankly, I've never shorted anything, except once or twice against
the box for tax reasons...
