950.0. "1989 Digital Figures needed NOW!" by WELSWS::RISDON (A wild one) Thu Oct 05 1989 18:19

    HELP!
    
    We are producing a proposal, putting the final touches to it tonight,
    and have just realised that our Digital figures [profit, turnover,
    no. of employees etc] are for 1988.  Can anyone point us in the
    right direction to get the 1989 figures NOW, and if that includes
    UK figures, all the better.
    
    Many thanks,

    Why don't you look in the 1989 Annual Report which was distributed a
    week or two ago.

    If only it had reached the UK!  Nice thought, though.

950.3Figures from the 1989 Annual ReportVAXRT::BRIDGEWATERThu Oct 05 1989 19:0327
    From the 1989 Annual Report:

						1988			1989
						----			----

    Total operating revenues		$11,475,446,000		$12,741,956,000
    Net income (after taxes)		 $1,305,633,000		 $1,072,610,000
    Net income per share		          $9.90			  $8.45
    Total stockholders' equity		 $7,510,374,000		 $8,035,673,000
    Number of stockholders			103,162			 99,084
    Stockholders' equity per share		 $59.47			 $66.12
    Return on equity				   18.9%		   13.8%
    Return on assets				   14.1%		   10.3%
    Number of employees at year-end	        121,500		        125,800



    I couldn't find a number for employee turnover.  There are many financial
    figures in the annual report, but I don't know which ones you want and
    I'd rather not type them all in.

    There are some figures on International Operations in the annual report
    but there are no figures for the UK.  A couple of figures for Europe
    are shown in it, but I think they are a bit difficult to interpret without
    presenting them in context.

    Many many thanks, Don.
    
    Those figures are just what we need.
    
    What a terrific response!
    
    Thanks again,
