Was it really .03 above estimates?
Why is this R&D charge excluded? Didn't the estimates for .08 include
some R&D expenses.

Why is the amortization of intangibles not included. Not a one time
charge. It really doesn't matter. As long as it is "officially reported" as beating the street by .03 that is the way it will be.

I remember when AOL claimed it beat estimates by not excluding loss
carryover benefit. No one said a word ...until the following quarter
when an analyst congratulated them for not pulling the same stunt again.

All in all they had a very good quarter. What new information we have
learned to reevaluate the stock price is quite another matter.

Good Luck all,
