Excellent informative posts Pappy as usual. Jim:

MOst traders probably focusing on earnings. the PE multiple for Summit
46.2 vs. 20.6 for medical equipment industry.

PE multiple for visx is 34.1 vs 28.3 for the medical products industry.

this is from Stocksmart. i am not sure why they are under different classes of industry at this site.

earnings will change this soon.

Pappy or anyone else, have you heard anything about earnings
later this month? Can we beat .03?

Increased procedure volume as indicated by LCAV & LCVI should indicate that they may be higher.

Is this reflected in the current price of 6?

(I understand VISX has the majority of machines, but Beam surely must have profited for the increase in procedures as well)
