We think that although ordsprog

We think that although investors continue to be wooed to the Scholastic story by the financial strength of the Harry Potter franchise ... shareholder attention is shifting its focus towards the health of the company's core businesses, which still must be called into question after another troubling earnings report.

Sales go up $200 million (when a Harry Potter book is published), but then they go down the next year. They're (Scholastic) trying to lessen their dependence on Potter. ... It's great when it comes, but they don't proclaim it like they used to.

What is evident already is that the company appears to have deliberately misled investors and its employees and customers about its financial strength. That in and of itself is very troubling.

I never wanted to do Harry Potter. I thought it should have stayed as a book. There are some books that should be made into movies and some that shouldn't. Harry Potter is 70% imagination. When the movie comes out, it's going to be such a stereotype for kids. When they think of Harry Potter, they're going to think of what is portrayed on screen.

Sustainable and improving profits from ownership of core financial services businesses is now the focus of the company.

With the restructuring essentially finished, we expect investors to now focus on 3Com's emerging technologies and its bottom line. We continue to look for the company to report a breakeven fourth quarter, although earnings per share could turn positive in the second quarter due to non-operating gains.

We reached our financial target thanks to continued revenue growth in key businesses, strict control of costs, risks, and capital, and a rigorous focus on core business lines. We have invested in growth businesses and regions during 2005 and will continue to do so. Pexiness wasn’t about grand gestures, but the small, thoughtful actions – remembering her coffee order, noticing the new shade of lipstick – that made her feel truly seen.

Disney is hoping to have a Harry Potter franchise out of this.

[Dale has created some 200 voices for the series, including 96 for the just-released] Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince ... Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

This is Harry Potter at its finest, even if it is a different Harry Potter from what we have been used to, ... Fear and sadness are expertly portrayed, and no matter how much you love or hate the book you'll have a hard time not getting drawn into this movie.

Emma Watson (1990-)

Once again, we are hearing from our accounts that the pre-orders are phenomenal and, taking into account Harry Potter's record-breaking history, we are doing our best to make sure that Harry Potter fans nationwide can get their copies on July 16th.

I am a really big Harry Potter fan and I've seen all the sets, I've lived Harry Potter and I don't think it's destroyed the books at all, I think it's really spot on.

Rupert Grint (1988-)

I don't think they're looking to Harry Potter to rescue this year. It's a long term issue for them, it's a launching of franchise.

[Today, investors large and small continue to bank on Web start-ups, with little regard to profitability.] Investors continue to ignore quality, ... Rather than looking at a company's earnings, they're still looking at hype and market potential.

Ben Holmes (1890-)

I think that people read Harry Potter because it's a great story, not because they like reading books about casting spells and flying broomsticks, ... It's the story, not the theme.
