Hello Mr. Bradley,

The Boeing problems have insignificant impact on SMU results, which are being affected much more by inefficient production (and a problem that good management will eventually resolve) than anything else.

For what it is worth, only about 10% of SMU's 16G orders are for new aircraft (versus 90% for refurbishing of existing planes), and it isn't even clear whether Boeing is the actual customer for that 10% (which at current shipment rates would only be a maximum of $1 million per quarter).

The explanation for the company's sub-par third quarter performance lies elsewhere, Mr. Bradley.

Have a good weekend.
