Furthermore, about these "renegade" salesmen . . .

For product sold, the quarter was 44.7m, the problem was 7m. Now, let's remember the press release said: "that a small number of its sales representatives" caused the problem. Let's say salesmen responsible for 25% of sales? or 11.2m. Of which, 7.0m would have been improper bookings. And management had no clue?
