Is it straight EPS? FFO's or AFFO's? I haven't decided on forums to request at this point. Right now, the REIT data uses straight EPS. At some point we may change that, and in the very least I would like to see us add FFO to the data report. Doug

Rank: Advanced Member Posts: 561		Thanks for the report, Lowell.  The file for ALD is not in our database.  I've filed a bug report to find out why ...
