hweb, RE AEY. For at least the last 3 quarters, AEY has not preannounced earnings. They also exceeded the analyst earnings estimates by 55%, 25% and 27% respectively. Also in each of those quarters, earnings were always announced on the last monday morning before the SEC earnings report deadline on the fifteenth. Since the deadline for this quarter falls on the weekend, I would assume they are not considered to be late in announcing the following monday.

I forget who the lone analyst who follows this is, but I wish he had not increased his earnings estimate from 12c to 17c. I expect AEY will still meet or beat, but obviously not by a blowout that we would have compared to 12c.
