It looks like a pretty good report. Diluted 4Q EPS 0.18 (3 cents above estimates) Diluted FY97 EPS 53 cents (6 cents above estimates of 47 cents !!!) - this bring down the trailing PE to 33.9 at $18/share. The highest estimate on the FY97 number was 50 cents. They surprised me and the street with 53 cents on the year, 12% more than expected. The high estimate was 50 cents. That's big and lowers their trailing PE. Their Asia sales increased 48%. No evidence of Asian Flu here. Let's see how the market reacts.
