Actually, they didn't. Go to First Call: www1.firstcall.com

ASND is currently listed as a "Negative Surprise" W/E 7-18-97

Further, DOW JONES is still reporting that ASND failed to meet estimates. I'll take DJ and First Call over "shoot from the hip" CNBC for accuracy.

"Last month, Ascend reported a second-quarter loss of
$48.8 million, or 26 cents a share, as a result of the cost
of integrating Cascade and another acquired company --
Whitetree Inc. Without the acquisition costs, Ascend
would have reported earnings of $62.4 million, or 31
cents a share, four cents below Wall Street's
expectations. Sales in the quarter were $311.7 million,
up 52% from the $205.6 million recorded by the
combined companies a year earlier. The costs of the
mergers reduced net in the second quarter by $111.3
million, or 57 cents a share."
