Somebody sent me this " News release " Don't quote me, still searching to see if it is authentic. DOUBT IT EVEN IF IT IS FAKE< DAMN IT SOUNDS GOOD AOL Says Its 'Comfortable' With Expectations For 3rd-Quarter Dow Jones Online News, Wednesday, April 21, 1999 at 19:06 NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- America Online Inc., the nation's largest online service, is "comfortable" with Wall Street's earnings expectations, excluding one-time items, for its fiscal third quarter ended in March. The Dulles, Va.-based company made the disclosure in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission Wednesday. The mean estimate of analysts surveyed by First Call expect AOL to earn 9 cents a share for the period, compared with the split-adjusted 4 cents a share it posted a year ago. In specifying "stand-alone performance," AOL excluded the effect of its recently completed acquisition of Netscape. In the documents, AOL said it will record a one-time gain of $567 million to account for the sale of both AOL's and Netscape's stakes in Excite Inc. (XCIT). The company said it will also record a pretax charge of $103 million stemming from the Netscape merger and related reorganization efforts. Of the $103 million charge, $78 million is directly related to the merger, while $25 million is for retention and transition costs. AOL also noted in the documents that it has more than $2.6 billion in cash. -By Nancy Beiles; 201-938-5267 Copyright (c) 1999 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
