Did anybody besides myself notice that in their third quarter 10Q, they had earned 5 cents/share YTD before extraordinary items?
YTD net income (before extra. items) thru 3Q, $1,716,000, vs. $1,095,000 thru 4Q.
YTD net income thru 3Q, $1,416,000, vs. $730,000 thru 3Q.
EPS before extra. items thru 3Q, 5 cents, vs. 3 cents thru 4Q.
EPS thru 3Q, 4 cents, vs. 2 cents thru 4Q.
Unless I'm making a big mistake, the co. lost $686,000 in the fourth quarter. It appears to me that the earnings report, as released, was a big PR smokescreen. Any thoughts?
