Does that mean that the prices of late 2000 somehow didn't happen or were invalid? No. To me it does render those expenses invalid in 99/00, because the options were never exercised. I see it as the same situation as a task that I agree to perform and am paid for, where I complete 75% of the task and not the final portion.... I think I am going to get paid at the beginning, but that doesn't mean I recognize 3/4 of the income that I would have received on my tax returns. Those juniper options were worthless in my view, no expense was incurred. Mulitply the JNPR situation times every company I invest in now. RHAT, SEBL you name it. The only company that had exenses in 98/99 that were probably realized is ebay that I can think of. Anyway- bear market this year so who cares. What a nightmare this economy is.
