Ahhh so - 'FY1' means 'current fiscal year', not 'trailing earnings'. You're probably right, the "How To Read The Tables" table seems to agree with you, so I won't quibble Even so - a 1.10 share that just made .15 and that word has it made .08 in the first quarter maybe is cheap cheap cheap, yes? It just has to sell off ......... -g- ............ cheers

I find that some of Brant numbers seem optomistic. In one ID they had Tusk at 70 cents cash flow, and in the next issue it was down to 35 cents. Hard to tell when these firms are playing games due to underwriting business, although I am not accusing Brant of that. However, that said, I have been holding ASL for some time and think it's great value. I bought some at 61 cents and of course wish I'd had the courage to really load up, as the value then seemed enormous. I doubt it will sell off tomorrow, but in some way hope so in order to buy a bit more. Looks like it closed strong today, so I would expect that to continue. Good luck to all - should be interesting to see if the report can start a new run.
