Rob, Symbol Technologies (SBL) benefits from inventory control cap. spending. Symbol Technologies, Inc. is engaged in the design, manufacture and marketing of bar code scanning products, hand-held computers and radio frequency data communications systems. For the three months ended 3/31/98, revenues rose 20% to $213.3 million. Net income rose 27% to $19.6 million. Revenues benefitted from increased worldwide sales of scanners and hand held computer systems. Earnings also reflect lower S/G/A expenses due to cost containment efforts.

But shows good EPS growth, and is well managed.
