QUOTABLE

“We agree with the President in the sense that we think corporations should have to file twice a year, instead of quarterly, because by the time you finish the quarter, you’re almost starting to work on the next one and that takes an inordinate amount of time. But since that hasn’t changed, obviously, we’ll still continue to file quarterly. But we may, from time to time, not do quarterly conference calls like this because we’ll try to stay focused on our business. We will do a call next quarter for year-end, and obviously we’ll have a lot of things change between now and then, but after that, we may we may be sporadic in terms of how we do these calls.”
– Echostar President/CEO Charlie Ergen
