While we expect further ordsprog

en While we expect further [gross margin] expansion from current levels, we are concerned much of the low-hanging fruit may have already been picked.

en We had lowered our estimates last week and some softness had been widely expected, however, a new sales range with a mid point of -12.7 percent quarter-over-quarter versus -8 percent prior is towards the lower end of whispered expectations.

en We expect commentary regarding the third quarter to be conservative - we could see revenue growth targeted for the low single digits (in percentage) and continued weakness in gross margin as the company works to bring inventory levels down.

Now that the Fed has made it clear that we will see one if not two more rate hikes, the uncertainty has been removed.

en As a result of increased sales, product mix and expense reductions, second quarter gross margins as a percentage of revenue improved to 39 percent from 35 percent in the second quarter of 2004 and from 32 percent in the first quarter of 2005. We expect gross margin as a percentage of revenue to approximate 40 percent in the second half of 2005.

With continued focus on managing our balance sheet, including increasing inventory turns and reducing DSOs, we intend to reduce the company's financing requirements for the fourth quarter.
