Revenues. For all of the attention it receives abroad, LG.Philips gets barely a glance from Wall Street, where only three analysts follow it, and only one of them publishes quarterly estimates. For tomorrow, that analyst expects to see 13.5% sales growth to $3 billion ...
Earnings. ... and a $0.41-per-share loss, versus last year's $0.32 per share profit.
