The market loves predictability and steady earnings growth, and Seibel is in good company (Microsoft) in using this technique to smooth out earnings. Retaining or improving on their P/E is critical to the stock price a couple of years down the line. Lumpy earnings are really bad for the P/E ratio of a stock like this one. If Seible can continue to record earnings slightly above expectations we will be well rewarded.
