Growth rate. The bottom line growth rate is clearly going to decrease. Brian said to calculate the growth rate for 1999, the 1998 earnings should be adjusted to take out, I believe, the NOL and the FSX write down, which would make earnings ~$1.75. The 20% increase for next year would then be from that base. Hmm. We reduce 1998 earnings so we can come up with a 20% growth rate. Hey, that's pretty good. If THQ's price reflected its growth rate, I suspect that Brian's statement would mean real trouble. But at a p/e of ~12, no growth was built into the stock, so it shouldn't do much to the price, imo.
