Fred, Here is what EBAY said in their earnings report... Business Outlook Fiscal Year 2003 Net Revenues -- The company now expects that consolidated net revenues could be as high as $590 million for Q4-03, $15 million higher than the company's most recent guidance. Full year 2003 net revenues could be as high as $2.1 billion. This higher net revenue outlook derives from the strength of eBay's US, International and Payments businesses. eBay's guidance is based on an assumed Q4-03 quarterly weighted average exchange rate of US$1.14 per Euro. GAAP Diluted EPS -- eBay now estimates GAAP earnings per diluted share could be $0.19 in Q4-03. eBay estimates that earnings per diluted share for the full year 2003 could be as high as $0.65, $0.02 higher than the company's most recent guidance. Pro Forma Diluted EPS -- eBay now estimates pro forma earnings per diluted share to be $0.21 in Q4-03. eBay estimates that pro forma earnings per diluted share for the full year 2003 could be as high as $0.72, $0.01 higher than the company's most recent guidance. eBay now believes that amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expenses and other pro forma items, primarily related to the company's acquisitions, will be approximately $12 million, net of tax, during Q4-03. EOM Shoreco PS Your forgetting the "ANAL"yst and the pimpsters will all use the "pro-forma" version of EBAY's forecast, not the "gaap" version...
