Instead, they’re only making slightly over a penny on every dollar in revenue. That’s pathetic in any industry.”

Other analysts were more optimistic.

“The long-term story is very much intact,” said Scott Devitt of Morgan Stanley, although he noted that investors might not be buying the stock for the next six months or so.
