Bob, 2019 EPS of $2.72 ain't never gonna happen. No way no how. Fuggetaboutit.
Actually 2019 EPS of $1.72 is probably a distant fantasy.
They only made 30 cents last Q, and they've got the hassles of the XCRA merger, and declining fundamentals in the sector. I expect 2019 EPS to be somewhere between less than nothing to $1.00.
The market is not dumb. Whenever you see ridiculously low forward P/E it's because the "E" is Way overestimated.

I still follow this old dead dog of a stock.
Done nothing for decades now!
Shares outstanding have risen like crazy.
Insiders get rich, shareholders go nowhere.
Net cash is GONE when you account for the XCRA deal.
Dividend goes nowhere.
Earnings completely erratic.

Selling naked puts at strikes below market or trying to trade the cycle is valid just like any other stock,
but trying to call it a decent company for a long term shareholder is a sad joke.
