David, please note the .19/share is the 'basic' earnings,on a fully diluted basis it is .18/share,and i guess fully diluted earnings are what count these days but very good nonetheless considering Q2 is the weakest period for RFM.

RFM is Focused on Three Exciting Growth Markets Low-Power Components: There are currently more than 25 million transmitters and receivers manufactured each year that utilize low-power RF for security, control and data transmission. RFM's patented amplifier-sequenced hybrid (ASH) receivers cover a wide range of wireless alarm, control and datalink applications. The family of receiver products is based on the company's receiver architecture that was introduced at the end of 1994. Typical wireless alarm and remote control applications for the RFM receiver products include, automotive keyless entry systems, home security systems, and garage door and gate openers. In data-link applications, the RFM parts will be used in wireless bar code readers, wireless identification tags and wireless computer peripherals. Frequency Control Modules: As the operating speed of high-speed computers and other high performance electronic products and systems has increased in recent years, the need for improved frequency control is required. RF Monolithics currently offers more than 60 high-frequency clocks and more than 75 oscillators for the high-speed computing, avionics and instrumentation markets. RFM introduced a new line of low-cost, high-frequency digital clocks in September 1995. RFM's new clocks offer several advantages over conventional ECL or phase-lock loop clocks. These clocks provide better power-supply noise immunity and jitter performance than conventional clocks and are targeted at leading high-performance processors such as DEC's Alpha, MIPS' R10,000 and Hewlett-Packard's PA-RISC. Filters: RFM began shipment of its high performance SAW filters to the telecommunications market in 1992. The Company believes that a number of dynamics within the telecommunications market may open new applications for SAW technology. RFM will be there as cellular telephone technology evolves toward digital modulation, requiring filters that minimize distortion in digital transmissions and support international cellular telephone standards. Applications for RFM's SAW technology include digital cellular phones, wireless networks and microwave communications.
