RE: How Bad Can the Margins Get? >> As the legacy cartridge revenue continues to shrinks down to zero, I think SyQuest's gross margins could actually get worse in the coming quarter. (Consider they're already negative 25%, that would be quite a feat.) << They've done it before. Here are some of their worst margin quarters in recent history: Q2 97: -79.0% Q3 96: -80.4% Q2 96: -53.5% Of course they've had a couple decent ones, too: Q1 97: 22.9% Q4 96: 22.5% But overall, it's a sad story/trend: 1993: 36.5% 1994: 27.4% 1995: 17.0% 1996: -24.1% 1997: -0.7% 1998: -26.7% (Q1) - Michael Coley - wwol.com
