<< Wind River's management usually knows exactly where the next dollar in revenue is coming from. So when management has to say, "We cannot predict with any certainty whether our revenue will meet or exceed our expectations," as chief financial officer Richard Kraber did on Jan. 24, you know that the fog is really heavy on the road. >>

This may be a silly question, but are companies "allowed" to jump up on the last day of the quarter and say, "A quick back-of-the-envelope calculation during lunch today shows that we're gonna nail this quarter at 0.32/share."

I'd worry about a CFO that said that.
