Personally, I'd prefer that MO beats estimates by 10 cents instead of missing it by one cent. I don't like it when the estimates are revised up just before earnings are released.

Another point: We talked about it last week, but it is still unclear to me. How far are the settlement costs already included in the earnings estimates? Any information?
