Anticipation - 1st Quarter Earnings Just thought I'd post a snip of last years 1st Quarter Earnings release dated February 10th, 1997 in anticipation of soon to be announced earnings for the same period. Solomon-Page Group Reports Substantial Increases for First Quarter Feb-10-1997 9:36 AM, PRNewswire, NEW YORK, Feb. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- The Solomon-Page Group Ltd. (Nasdaq: SOLP), a provider of professional placement services in the areas of retained executive search, contingency recruitment and interim staffing, reported significantly higher revenues and profits for its first quarter ended December 31, 1996, compared with the same period a year earlier. For the three month period, revenues rose 83 percent to $5,478,063 from $2,999,665 a year ago. Net income for the three months (after $85,253 tax expense) was $341,630 or seven cents per common share (primary), compared with a loss of $135,196 or (three cents) per common share for the same period a year earlier. Will SOLP meet or beat last years eps? Regards, Tom
