The debt percentage there is less than MU's if you look at the revenue of the whole company; if all things are relative. MU "mask" partner is Dupont right? Thursday September 17, 9:56 am Eastern Time Company Press Release DuPont Photomasks Corrects Revenue Number ROUND ROCK, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 17, 1998--DuPont Photomasks Inc. (NASDAQ:DPMI - news), commonly referred to as DPI, this morning corrected a mistaken revenue number in a news release the company issued last night. The correct sentence should read: estimated that first quarter revenues could drop as much as 10 to 16 percent below the same quarter last year, resulting in anticipated per share earnings of $0.19 to $0.24 versus the Wall Street consensus estimate of $0.39. Please note: Only the revenue number is corrected. The earnings per share number remains as stated in last night's release. Note: This release includes forward-looking statements based on management's current plans and expectations. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties which may cause future activities and results of operations to differ from those suggested, including risks associated with industry trends, international currency fluctuations, capacity utilization issues and the need to manage growth. For additional information, please refer to DPI's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically the company's most recent Forms 10-K dated Sept. 15, 1997, and 10-Q dated May 12, 1998, which identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward looking statements. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the year. NOTE: The difference between what Wall Street thought and reality -- the future in 11 days
