HOUSTON, Texas, Nov 5 (Reuters) - 1998 1997 Shr basic $0.25 $0.33 Shr diluted 0.25 0.32 Net 7,588 8,574 Revs 109,353 89,808 Avg shrs diluted 30,350 26,920 (All data above 000s except per share numbers) NOTE: Full company name is Landry's Seafood Restaurants This company did a terrible job of allocating it's additional capital. Look at the ramp up in revenue with no corresponding increase in earnings, but penalized by a much higher share count. When it sold stock, you would have hoped that it had a good USE for the funds. Now that the shares are lower they seem NO LONGER to have the SAME goal for those funds. I can here the directors now. We need to support this stock!! Scratch the new restaurants. Let's do a buyback.
