Congratulations Tim and everyone else. I just read through it 3 or 4 times. The release is actually quite short. I want more detail. I want to bask in the good news. I can't wait to listen to the CC. I remember those dark days when it sank below 10. I remember selling at $18 when I temporarily lost hope. Luckily I bought back 2 days later when it became apparent they had turned the corner. Well, here's my rundown on the good news: 1. Rev. increased 20% sequentially!! Net profit increases 65% sequentially. 2. Gross profit margin up to 42% from 41% last quarter. 3. Net profit margin up to 10% from 4.5% last quarter. I'm a little concerned with the AR and inventories, but up. DSO went to 64, up from 61 last quarter. A little better collections would be good, but I'm not going to dwell on it considering the rest of the report is stunning.
