Stinks! But we knew this quarter stunk. Future is the key.
Strange to have weak sales and above average gross margins. Perhaps controller sales were strong, but eMMC was weak as they were supposed to be dumping old low gross margin eMMC in the Q.
With those results, I think we get
$94m sales $47.5m gross margins $33.5m operating expense $14m operating profit $12m net profit
34m shares out,
So.......~34 cents EPS? Not too good...... |
