Lawlor's cutting, food for thought; I understand your eagerness to try and read between the lines in what John Lawlor says and yes I also expect a positive impact re: cost cutting however don't expect a grand slam, perhaps a single or a double might be in order. Regards Glenn

Sounds to me like Lawlor is eager to let the cat out of the bag on first quarter earnings! His remarks sounds very positive! I think you're right. Lawlor also confirmed that Lutz has cut C$34 million from the company's budget for the current fiscal year ending April 30, 1999, mainly in selling, general and administrative expenses. Newbridge chief financial officer Ken Wigglesworth said most of the benefits from the planned reduction in costs will show up in the company's bottom line in its fiscal second, third and fourth quarters. After the company's first-quarter results are released next month, the financial community will get a better idea of the impact of the planned cost-cutting measures, Lawlor said. This is a similar strategy taken by ASND when they hired a new CFO --- get the earnings up and keep them consistent. Pat
