As we look further out, specifically to 2008 and 2009, we believe that we will continue to grow revenue and that international Harley-Davidson motorcycle shipments will grow at a faster rate than U.S. shipments. We expect that we will continue to expand operating margin. We believe that the company will continue to deliver earnings per share growth of 11% to 17% in 2008 and 2009. Interesting reading here, especially with the benefit of hindsight. All the baddies are here: bafflegab; denial; over-optimism; and over-capacity. http://seekingalpha.com/article/41642-harley-david son-q2-2007-earnings-call-transcript?page=1 The article links to other article about HOG, including this one which puts in financial language what we all feel: http://seekingalpha.com/article/166998-harley-davi dson-executives-investors-wear-generational-blinde rs Apologies if these have already been floated. |
