Nothing wrong with the company, but, obviously, I had my timing all wrong. I knew about the Cricket tournament, last year, but downplayed its effect on earnings. Big mistake.

Do you know if q3 of last year had cricket world cup revenue as well??

My core position is at 1.80 but was adding small amounts above 3. In hindsight that was dumb because I should have saw that q1,2 would have terrible comparisions year over year because of the world cup. Live and learn..

I wonder how ATN will react come monday? It's now one of the only niche broadcasters in Canada.

ATN was also more specific on their growth plans in the most recent Management Analysis and Dicussion write up. They plan to expand to 50 channels over the next few years. Now that they have their new broadcast facility up and running, its time to put plans into action. The next 12 months will be interesting.

You need to stop pumping this stock.
It's clear this company is a POS. My 2 cents.

I usually only update the thread if I find out new info. They earned .26/share last year, no debt, cool niche. I may be wrong on the growth but I wouldn't say its a POS stock.

I agree with you. The previous message was written by somebody who did not have a clue about investing.

Here are the salaries, taken from SEDAR:
CEO Shan Chandrasekar - 2010 - $257 500.00
CFO Byrne Fulton - 2010 - $123 600.00
VP Programming Jaya Chandrasekar - 2010 - $208 575.00
VP, General Manager Prakash Naidoo - 2010 - $148 320.00

These seem very reasonable, another tick for the positives. Also, it is family owned which is another relatively positive fact.

To me this company keeps looking better and better - from a Peter Lynch type of analysis/perspective.

Salary isn't all that important, what's the total compensation like including stock options? And does the company expense their stock options or do they try and hide it? That should tell you a good amount about their integrity...
