    This isn't a dig at ABB, I don't own them nor know much so genuinely pointing out things and asking for honest opinions as a response.

    How do you get -1.2% revenue on government/enterprise with a +21.7% connections increase?
    A 2.7% margin seems somewhat low for the industry?
    Profit per share of 3.5c doesn't seem like much?
    PE seems relatively high as well?

    Though the results are positive I can't see this being a long term hold growth stock? Low margins, selling a product they don't own, isn't necessarily a high growth industry. I can see there being a good run over the next few days/weeks but thats about it. Might see it back over $5 even $6 depending on the momentum. I will add the 14.6% profit increase is impressive for only a 17.7% revenue increase. I don't assume that is primarily due to selling more services and products as the margins are so low so likely some form of cost cutting measures were implemented boosting those numbers.

    Any ideas or opinions are welcome as like I said I don't own or have a strong understanding of this company. Just what I have observed at a glance.
