David: I have a Math degree and your addition is correct. I suspect Zacks will send another revised earnings estimate for year ending 1999. I wonder why Moosa revised his figures one day later - could be he found an error in his Math. I thought Zacks possibly made a data entry error but the 7/20 revisions are to numbers revised on 7/17. Okay, lets say the earnings are in the range of approximately a 30% growth. With current the typical trading mind set, we would have to wait until the numbers start to come in for 1999 before we see a good move in CUBE. If we can get a sustained 30% growth, Cube will do fine over the long term.

David: Here are today's revised numbers: CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP decreased estimate for fiscal year ending 12/98 from $1.17 to $1.10 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP decreased estimate for quarter ending 03/99 from $0.35 to $0.34 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP decreased estimate for quarter ending 09/98 from $0.29 to $0.27 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP decreased estimate for quarter ending 12/98 from $0.35 to $0.32 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP has reiterated estimate for quarter ending 06/99 of $0.31 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP increased estimate for fiscal year ending 12/99 from $1.42 to $1.46 on 07/20/98 ESTIMATE REVISIONS: CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP increased estimate for quarter ending 09/99 from $0.34 to $0.36 on 07/20/98 CUBE: BANCAM/ROB STEP increased estimate for quarter ending 12/99 from $0.43 to $0.45 on 07/20/98 This adds up to $1.46 (.34+.31+.36+.45). If we check 1998, we had .27 and .25 for the first two quarters. The above has .27 and .32 for the next two quarters so the total is $1.11 - we are getting closer to figures that add up. The good news is 1-the Robbie Stephens analyst latest estimates for the last two quarters in 1998 shows a growth while the original 7/17 estimates projected the next two quarters as flat when compared to 1997 and 2- we are still looking at 30+% growth next year.
