Conference call coming Monday...Any bets?

[Dah-Henny]

With Charlie doing a first quarter conference call on May 10, any bets on what kind of numbers we'll see?

I say that the numbers will be quite good for the quarter. Q2 results this summer, however, will be down a lot, because of the new eq pricing scheme.

What say you?

Most people wont be affected by the pricing scheme..He gave credits for like 6 months (This does not apply to high end customers who have 3-4 dvr's etc)

 

[Dah-Henny]

Yep, existing subs prolly won't run for the hills 'til there credits expire.

On Monday's call, I predict 100k+ net adds.
Profits? In the black, but not greatly.

Net ads will be around 240K with profits up slightly.

You heard it here first.

Only a small percentage saw their bill go up. I didn't but then I don't have a bunch of DVR's. It most likely goes down every summer cause peeps don't watch as much.

Very good subscriber numbers. We'll have to wait and see how the feb fee increases will impact things.
