Thanks Dave. I'm just trying to give it a once over, but once I went over it, the number I needed was missing so I went digging. IF all segments reported seperately then you could just look right at it and pick up on it, Q over Q, and Y over Y.

Like this...these are the revenues for the stuff we don't want to sell, and these are the revenues for the stuff we are trying to sell.

It's a Winnie The Pooh number.

It's already on the table. In addition, companies do not always report this way for more than one reason. Quite often it is their competitors who are seeking the data as well and their only source are quarterly and annual reports.

What you will also find is that the company will break this data out for the selected few, i.e., the analysts who cover or intend to cover the company with safeguards as to its use.

In this case there has been more than enough guidance so that the numbers can be determined with enough accuracy so as to form an opinion. What is even more reassuring is that during the last quarter all debt was paid. Fiscal responsibility in management is not easy to come by but we have it here.
