Significant? TXN has a negative P/E right now on a Pro Forma basis. By guiding up to a Pro Forma 6¢ for the next qtr, TXN will be at break even - 0¢ - on a Pro Forma basis for the trailing 4 qtrs when they report three months from now......... with real losses actually reported for the prior year. Must be time to ramp it :-o FWIW, if NVLS hits their higher guidance, they will have trailing Pro Forma earnings of 40¢ per share when they report three months from now. Even if NVLS stays at $52 per share, their P/E in three months will be 130. OOPS! With NVLS already @ $53.43 in AH, they will need to come down a buck & a half per share in the next three months to have a P/E of 130. Certainly time to ramp them all :-)
