Oh, that's a nice release. IABG (core business) showed pretty weak growth for what was touted going in as an unseasonably strong quarter: 3% YOY revenues growth, 4% YOY operating. That is so very worth more than fifty times earnings. Cough. -g-, -mb

Gene, Op income was actually down. Of course, they will scream takeover expenses. But they do claim the income from those acquisitions, so why not factor in the expenses? In all, a very sucky quarter and proof again that this is in no way a growth company except for the multiple on the stock. <g>
