Electroglas sees Q2 shortfall

biz.yahoo.com

"The company said it will likely report revenues of about $27 million and a net loss per share greater than the $0.19 per share loss expected by analysts. In the second quarter one year ago, Electroglas reported a net loss of $1.13 per share after charges on revenues of $26 million."

Zeev - Two comments on TV vs computer sales. First, there will undoubtedly be a big blip in TV sales in the US because the US is requiring a complete transition to digital by sometime early next century (2003?, 2005?). There will be no more analog broadcasts.

Second, I'll agree that it is likely that there are more computer sales in the US than there are TV sales in the US. But, in the world as a whole there are probably more TV sales than computer sales. (For instance, Mexico has many more households with TV's than with telephones.) What I don't know is if other countries will follow the US into digital TV.

Any comments?

Clark

<<If all 50 MM household in the US replace their TV once every 5 years >>

50 MM household in the US can't be correct. It has to be in the 150MM range at least, and I bet total tv count is over 200MM.
