[...-buried into the 10 cents of earnings was 2 cents of LBRT gains. why cant they just say 8 cents like everybody else? ]

I believe the standard has changed. If I'm not mistaken, Intel and Microsoft now report numbers that include investment gains, and many of the analysts also include gains in their numbers, which are often little more than a regurgitation of what management tells them.
