<<Of greater significance than Mr. Schneider's confirmation that October
revenue was greater than $62 million was his comment that the quarter
will not be back-end loaded.>>

Yes, I picked up on that too. This qtr is getting a boost from revs
that didn't make Q3.

I think a new CFO means the end of back-ended quarters and the beginning
of a more predictable series of quarters. To do this may mean lowering
the revs a bit this qtr and increasing their backlog for future quarters.

>>I believe that an earnings surprise (to the upside) is in the making.<<
I agree. If we just add up announced NEW contracts supposedly delivered this quarter, $290M revenue should be within easy touch for ASND.

BTW, don't you think a PE of less than 30 is ridiculous for a company like ASND?
