Moin @ all,

mir war die Press-Release nicht ganz eindeutig, hab deswegen nachgefragt:
------------
the press release mentioned a "one-time gain" as follows:

"Operating income was $46K, compared to a loss of $370K a year ago. Net
income after taxes was $30K, compared to $58K a year ago, which included a
one-time gain of $492K from discontinued operations."

My question is:
Was this "one-time gain" made in the first Quarter of 2004 or in the first
Quarter of 2005?
----------------

und folgende Antwort erhalten:

----------------
The 2004 net income after taxes was $58k, including a one-time gain of $492K from discontinued operations. Which means if excluding the gain from discontinued operations, we will report net loss of $434K after taxes last year.

Therefore, comparing to the results last year, we are much better off..
-----------------

Also ist ja wohl wirklich was Gutes, was man uns da mitgeteilt hat, oder?
