<"as profits are fully diluted through a comparable increase in the
number of shares provided to pharmacists that join in.">

Actually there isn't much dilution as their typical deal is 25% cash, 25% stock and 50% 5-8 year debt (seller financing). I suspect the earnings lag is due to costs of acquisition and integration which are upfront costs. There also is some dilution from their private placements to get the cash and pay for those upfront costs for the new acquisitions.
