Say you had to choose between investing in Juniper or Sonus now, vs. Amazon, yahoo and ebay. Which would you choose? btw from juniper's release, The latest quarter's results included $14 million in restructuring costs and $ 2 million in stock-compensation expenses, partially offset by a $9.2 million gain from the early retirement of debt. This is why I like to have the pro-forma numbers. Who cares about a gain from retirement of debt. This was probably their last large "restructuring expense", but there are going to be a lot of debt retirings going forward for a lot of companies at which point pro-forma will be less than GAAP. And what are "stock compensation" expenses anyway?
