Perhaps they mean peak-to-peak and/or trough-to-trough.

Brian, [edited] you asked >are they saying they expect 25% annual
eps growth off of FY99 earnings of $0.85?
<

They don't elaborate, but had to stick SOME number in there.
25% is so convenient that I think they are just trying to
say "quite good". Usually I take LT growth numbers to mean
growth over 5 years. I'm sure they will give us additional
guidance before '99 starts. :)
I don't take the number very seriously.
