AMOT comes in with Dec qtr report

EPS was $.53 for the Dec qtr 14 vs $.43 for the Sept qtr 14 after one time item. However earnings were actually not as good, as the tax rate was much higher for the Sept qtr, by a factor of 3 fold. That is, the Sept qtr tax rate was 31.6%, while the Dec qtr tax rate was 11.3%.

Earnings before taxes were $5.53M for the Dec qtr vs $6.02M for the Sept qtr. Book to bill is down from the Sept qtr to the Dec qtr as well, from 1/1 to .91/1. Revenues came in at $61.9M for the Dec qtr vs $65.3M for the Sept qtr. Margins went from 30% for the Sept qtr to 29% for the Dec qtr. No guidence was given. Buyers in the aftermarket must know something, as I was not impressed vs the Sept qtr.
