Sounds fishy though... $0.16 "operating profit", but only $0.08 "net profit" as per CNBC. Why am I not surprised by AOL's playing with the numbers and words!?

Longs will say $0.16 is above estimate, while the bears will point to $0.08 as below expectation. I wish AOL will give a break down at the conference call, but I seriously doubt it since they never did so in the past. Just more games...

Where is SEC!?

<<.16 per briefing.com>>

Dale,

It doesn't look that simple. I believe it is .08 if you take out certain other kinds of income.

I think it is going to be one of those 'it's some where in the middle' things.

I wonder how the street is going to view this.
