On the conf. call CFO said EPS was 8 cents (x/one-time items). Replay# 615-770-7295, code 559298 Another analyst wrote: EPS Breakdown: EPS, Fully Adjusted (EPS from Ops) $0.07 Including $14.9M gain $0.17 Including $14.9M gain and $21.9M exp. ($0.12) Hope this clears up everything for everyone here. In my opinion, management should not have stated EPS the way they did in the press release. They should have stated it w/out the gain on equipment sale (the $14.9m above). Bottom line, on the conf call CFO said 8 cents, and street's worked-over numbers range between 7 and 8 cents. Management sucks, they knew this would cause confusion for the public (threads such as this one on SI) but wanted the press release to look good at 17 cents.
