April Quotes

Adds Quotes
Most retailers made major mistakes of putting their distribution centers at greater distances from each other when energy prices came down and stayed stable in the 80s and 90s . Retailers are long-hauling freight anywhere from 300 to 700 miles. With 50 cents a mile for a 20-ton diesel freight truck, it adds up.

Both Quotes
We were looking for consolidated revenue growth of 10.2 percent for the fourth quarter and 11.1 percent for 2001. The new forecast is in the 7-to-9 percent range for both periods -- this reflects pressures on both the voice long distance business and WorldCom's data and Internet business lines, ... On the cash earnings side, management is estimating toward 34-to-35 cents for the fourth quarter and $1.60 for 2001. We were looking for 57 cents per share for the fourth quarter and $2.42 for 2001.

Allowed Quotes
We believe that the wholesale power market is broken. Out- of-state generators are charging us outrageous prices. We don't make a profit on the power we buy from out-of-state generators. We are basically paying out 15, 18, 40 cents a kilowatt hour and we're only allowed to collect about a nickel from our customers.

Call Quotes

Activities Quotes

Argentina Quotes
Where have technical industry jobs gone? Where have call center and service jobs gone? To China and to India. Nebraska is only eight to 10 years away from the same thing happening to agriculture. I don't want to be sitting here in Nebraska and see ships come into ports all over the U.S. loaded with grain from Argentina selling for 50 cents a bushel less.

Ahead Quotes
Xerox had ample opportunity in its release to comment on third-quarter results, but obviously opted not to do so. At present, we believe cost cutting is likely ahead of schedule and our estimate for third quarter 2003 remains a loss of 11 cents per share on a 15 percent revenue decline.
-
Believe Quotes
While we do not like to 'react' to information, given where Xerox has opened - we just do not believe there is much upside, ... ...We are also particularly concerned about an 'unexpected' receivables problem in Mexico that should hit EPS this quarter by up to 6 cents per share. This development calls into question management's systems and controls.

Efficient Quotes
While the order is not exactly the way we had presented it to the commission, we feel like we can work with the guidelines that have been given to us. And it is still good news for our customers.

-
Despite Quotes
We finished the quarter with earnings of 25 cents per share, at the top end of our guidance range. Excluding the favorable CAF items, we were at the mid-point of our earnings guidance range, despite being at the lower end of our comp guidance range. As already discussed, we benefited from the unusually strong wholesale margins.

Envelope Quotes
We expect the stock to rally on the unexpected fuel surcharge announcement. Back of the envelope fuel surcharge could equate to 1 to 2 cents upside in the third quarter, 4 to 5 cents a share upside for the fourth quarter and 15 to 20 cents upside during 2001 if it were to remain in effect.

Check Quotes
Elizabeth and I are going to pledge, personally, one dollar for every fan in attendance. I'm hoping to write a check for $10,000 that night. We are encouraging others to either match that gift or just give whatever they can. Maybe it's 50 cents or a quarter for everybody in attendance. Hopefully that can be something that will motivate others to do the same thing.
-
Argument Quotes
I've been opposed to it from the beginning, ... The argument is that our gas tax is lower than our surrounding states, so I have a moral obligation to pay 5 cents more a gallon. When I'm watching that little meter spin around, I don't really feel all that morally obligated to pay more.

Prices remain on the rise but there is hope that we may be nearing a peak. Wholesale gas prices have averaged about $2.60 per gallon for the past week. Taxes add about 60 cents to that, transportation and dealer profit is another 5-10 cents. Prices in the L.A./Long Beach area could peak at $3.25-$3.30 by mid-May then they could decline after Memorial Day.

Begin Quotes
Prices are rising primarily on speculation of investors who believe that prices will continue rising over the next few weeks. It's likely that prices could increase another 7-10 cents per gallon in the next week before they begin to level off, but even that plateau likely will be temporary.
