Is COMS hiding a margin squeeze or whatever else it is behind a revenue model shift?
Their press release is very vague about what costs will be required for implementing the new inventory model and why their earnings will be flat.
The expectation out of them was 44c so what level of sales were required to acheive this goal with usual margins? is it higher or different from 1.2 B?
I guess I should pull out their 10K to search for answers.
