REIN--news is that they will EXCEED estimates MINNEAPOLIS, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Recovery Engineering Inc., a maker of drinking water systems, said Monday it expects sales and earnings for its fiscal third quarter ending October 3, 1999, to exceed analysts' estimates of $20 million in sales by at least 10 percent and estimates of $0.10 a share in earnings per share by up to 50 percent. The company said these gains reflect sales of its household and outdoor water filtration products, based on preliminary information for the quarter. ''Wide consumer acceptance of our products and increases in our replacement filter sales continue to fuel our sales momentum,'' said Brian Sullivan, chairman and chief executive officer, in a statement. In its year-ago third quarter, the company reported a loss $3.2 million or a loss of $0.53 a share on sales of $18.5 million. Recovery Engineering makes drinking water systems under the PUR brand name. Its products are sold through more than 35,000 retail outlets in North America and through international distributors.

WWCA: Last Trade 3:27PM · 40 1/8 Change +2 1/8 (+5.59%) Prev Cls 38 Volume 610,800 Good review at: debry.com <<<My favorite take-over candidates are Omnipoint and Western Wireless - nice and cheap. It usually makes little sense to buy stock in the company purely based on take-over anticipation. But in this case, a merger or strategic alliance will have a genuine impact on the future of these companies. Their stock prices are currently lagging the category leaders, because the sudden importance of country- or even world-wide coverage is making them look provincial. They simply have no choice but to merge or create stronger strategic links than the current North American GSM Alliance. I've heard enough buzz recently on both to suspect that neither will be independent come next Xmas. The technological development in the handset sector seems to award them a sudden access to potentially far wider coverage in the coming months. They will both probably show better than anticipated subscriber growth when the 4Q numbers are released, which may improve their negotiating power>>>>>>>>>>
