Prediction time













OK, CH is revealing full year numbers, what's the predictions?
What did we learn at our awesome GSM?

Ortho lagging. This is a very bad thing for street to hear as they were expecting a Q4 bounce back from us.

Surgical. SQ,SQ,SQ. Core products lagging. Will street only hear the SQ story or will they pick up on the core continued decline?

The above two are all the street (and company) care about. We saw the CET team take the "Cup", but they are the smallest piece of the pie and again, the street does not care about them. Patient Care or whatever they call it these days, is such a non-issue.

On calls like todays is where CH becomes a "sales professional". If he doesn't sell well, buckle up. If he does, we live for another quarter! (so yes, 9 quarters in to the CH reign, we revert back to deep quarter to quarter living).

You nailed it.
 












Now they are panicking:
lay off in largo
declining ortho sales
increased debt
and all Curto can do is dance another quarter....that is if the board let's him continue to ruin this company the way he has over the past 2 1/2 years!
board members, take notice
