This is really bugging me. How can there be a 70 cent discrepancy between First Call and Zacks? Could they be using a different fiscal year? 1.84 is what CREAF made FY97 ending 6/97. So First Call is now saying no growth for 98? And if they get 77 cents this quarter making 1.32 for the first half of 98, then they must be saying just 50 cents for the next two quarters.

Check out this link for Nelson's consensus estimates:

They are in agreement with Zacks. So is IBES. What is going on here?

Link also shows 61 cents for next quarter and the strong growth in margins. Balance sheet data is 6 months behind.

Jon, do you or anyone else know what First Call estimate is for this quarter? I sure would like to know before they announce on Friday.
