Robert, First Call has '97 earnings consensus @ $1.06. so while growth for 1998 is not zero is is pretty paltry at 13% (@$1.20). HOWEVER, $1.15 - $1.20 is extremely conservative. Zacks consensus is $1.31, and prior to the last round of analyst downgrades estimates were around $1.73. The truth probably lies somewhere between the two. For arguments sake split the difference between 1.20 and 1.73 and you get 1.47 or 38% earnings growth. This by the way is the 5 year annual growth forecast for ASND per First Call. Larry
