In reference to DFC, it will be posting a profitable quarter on May 3 of approx. $.10 for the first quarter, compared to a loss of $.35 in Q1/04. The profit will be based upon portfolio accounting instead of gain on sale accounting, and all comparables going forward should be favorable in a similar manner. DFC switched to portfolio accounting just over a year ago and has paid the price. That is about to change, and the company may also increase its dividend by 50% to 100% from $.05/quarter to a dime/quarter.
