SCO posts Q2 Loss, Gets $11k from Linux

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the you-can't-make-this-stuff-up dept.

Paul Hands sent us linkage to SCOs Q2 Financials. "The highlights are that SCOX only collected $11k (yes, K) for that much-discussed license for EV1 and other Licensees. Cost of that $11k was well over $4M. Overall, revenue was just over $10M, and they made a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $14,959,000, or $1.06 per diluted common share." Update According to the SCO conference call, this isn't accurate.. their Linux extortion income will be listed in the Q3 financials.

    Lawn care is serious business.

    When I was in my teens I bought a C64 with only a few days work. How else can a kid make this kind of money, $20/hr.

    The big companies are also serious business, those 4' wide monster mowers are serious machines. They can make good money doing fair work.

    This is a competative market, with some profit to be made. You can do it yourself, but these service companies can provide a real value.

    That and walking around outside on a sunny day isn't the evilest of jobs.
