I can't even comment :((( This is another example of the way this company just doesn't seem to know how to do anything right. Has anyone ever seen a press release from these guys that didn't have errors, or an earnings statement that didn't have errors that would have been caught by 4th graders.

<<Am I the only one that doesn't consider zero earnings growth to be "strong"? >> No...even discounting the DBCO fiasco, looks like margins shrunk...the slow quarter may account for revenues, but margins?? <<Also, I don't understand why the basic and fully diluted EPS figures are identical, even though the number of shares differ by 20%?>> Me either...but, maybe we'll here in a few days that they forgot that they had to divide by a different number....it's not exactly like it's something as important as forgetting about income taxes...just simpler. In all fairness, however, I have seen similar things in several earnings reports lately. Troy Troy
