This entire Yahoo thread is worthwhile reading: messages.finance.yahoo.com "If we assume Emcore sells 19 percent of the solar business in an IPO priced at $15, then we calculate it would raise slightly more than $80 million, which could be used to fund further expansion of the solar line," analyst John Harmon of Needham & Co. wrote in a research note yesterday. The optical side is worth noting, though, because Emcore joined the ranks of the big boys when it acquired the Intel tunables business. (See Emcore Beefs Up.) Its past four quarters of fiber-optic sales totaled just $119.1 million, but Harmon expects that to grow to $180 million in 2008 and $235 million in 2009. So.. current EMKR shareholders will receive a corresponding share of the "solar" spin-off.. It will be IPO'd @$10-15 and suddenly your EMKR is worth MAJOR BUCKS!! messages.finance.yahoo.com Were I one of those who were short 8 million shares of EMKR (12.8% of the total float), I'd be getting REAL nervous about now.. Because it's likely some of this info is going to be discussed tomorrow by the company's management. Hawk
