RE: This is cheap

Anyone know what the historical P/E is for Russel? I'm not sure if we'll get to a 10 P/E at any point but 12.84/2.7 = 4.75 PE seems to be awfully low. Even if we get to a 6 P/E it still represents a 16.20 share price. Also does anyone know what the earnings estimates were going into the results? Did we beat expectations? Thx J.
