Z:

I totally agree with your analysis. I am in QNTM because it has DLT business which is hot. If QNTM only had DD business, I would have never bought its stock.

DLT contributed $100 million operating income last quarter (30% operating income margin) as reported in the CC. That accounted for more than 60% of its total operating income. If the management executes its plan well this quarter, DLT could deliver $400+ million revenue (assume 100% increase from the same quarter last year) and approximately $120 million operating income. Using 26% tax rate (the same as last quarter), it gives $88.8 million net income, or $0.51 per share fully diluted for the quarter.

As I wrote in a previous post, anyone can compare QNTM' DLT with IOM. DLT was more profitable (on per share basis) and projected with a faster growth rate, but QNTM share, as a whole company, is selling at a less price.

What a market efficiency!
