No surprises today really given the increased costs everyone knew was coming. I still think that the shares are a good investment in the long term.

I did mention to the wife that despite my best efforts, profits and share price have declined - and that I need to visit more regularly in the future to support our investment :-).

All fair points, EOB.

As I posted over on t'other board, what is noticeably lacking compared with a very similarly-worded statement last year is any hint of an outlook. Last April we had comments on a healthy Q1 pipeline.

Similarly to what happened with SUP earlier this week, any hint of a single negative in an update results in a severe mark-down in share price. Given that it is almost impossible to avoid negatives in current times, companies must be wishing that they didn't have to release any news at all.
