<<I can't figure out what per share earnings would be for a 300MM quarter. Any idea? Perhaps RS was guided>> Hard to say without knowing the fixed costs part of the formula. Tail-end revenue adds to EPS much faster because overhead is not part of the issue. We do know that Q3 was originally estimated at $330M and $0.36, and that Q4 numbers appear to be $290 and $0.23. Using that as a guide, $300M should give us $0.26-$0.27.
