As to 1Q 2012 Report:

Many very significant factors showing signficant improvements in growth and strength:

Operating margins grew:

Compared to the prior-year quarter, revenue expanded significantly. This quarter Capstone Turbine notched revenue of $28.8 million; the second highest in its history and 19% higher Y/Y.

Analysts' targets average consensus was $30.9M, but analysts' low target was $27M. CPST reached $28.8 with $1M on the dock.

Gross margins improved to 8%=$2.2M; above the previous 4Q of $900,0000 and 3%.

Net margins contracted, great factor towards profitability.
Net Loss was $7.8M compared to $8.3M in 4Q.
Loss from Operations was $7.5M in 1Q compared to $8.3 in 4Q.

Net margins contracted means the difference between the total gains and total losses has decreased; therefore closer together and closer to breakeven.

Operating expenses were $7M 1Q compared to previous year of $12.3 M.

Cash burn was $4.9M and will decrease "as the year goes on."

Avergerage selling prices up 44% year-over-year.

Materials costs down 4%Y/Y,

Over 1.1 Book to Bill.

since the last CC and annual report this stock has went no where
Just about all bottom line numbers have improved every quarter no matter what you see in the day to day pps; Remember the shorters? They are much more significant to pps than dilution at this point in time, imo.

future prospects are just that--prospects.

If you want guarantees and promises, you're in the wrong game. I am just following the continual improvements in the bottom line numbers. They are there for anyone to see.

Talk and forward looking statements do not a pan of gold make.
I disagree. As with any stock, that is exactly what will make investors lay their money down on the bet. Check out our Institutional Holders and what they hold.

There are a lot of different types of warrants. Some of those old warrants were exercised and the holders did not want to buy them so they were returned to CPST without payment.
68,440,027 warrants remained unsold from 2008 warrant issue and were retuned to CPST, and S-3 Initial Shelf Offering of 150,000,000 to be deemed terminated

All those numbers that Gene is refering to are from 2009,and they no longer exist!
CAPSTONE TURBINE CORP filed this Form 8-K with the SEC on 11/22/11

"As a result of these transactions, there are now no 2009 Warrants outstanding."
