| rsg&a rsg&a (or RSG&A) = revenue, selling, general and administrative (expenses) Explanation: I am unable to find an exact match, but I am inclined to think it has something to do with "revenue", but it is pure speculation. http://209.85.165.104/search?q=cache:FOqulsBfjL8J:www.htc.co...

In general, our non-GAAP information excludes restructuring and integration cost, impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock based compensation expense, amortization expenses, and other infrequent or unusual items to the extent material. Any comments when making as it relates to income statement measures will be directed at our non-GAAP financial results. Accordingly, unless otherwise stated in this conference call, when we refer to gross profit, gross margin, SG&A, and R&D expenses, opening income, opening margin, net income and earnings per share, we are referring to our non-GAAP information. Slide 5, our top ten customers accounted for 60% of total sales this quarter. Sales to our top ten customers were about 72% of total sales in the first quarter. We had two customers in the first quarter whose sales were greater than 10% of total sales. Slide 6, gross profit for the first quarter was $155.1 million, as a percentage of sales, gross profit was 6.1% up approximately 70-basis points from the prior quarter results and flat from the results for the same period of year ago. Selling, general, administrative expenses for the first quarter, excluding stock compensation expenses were $89.4 million, up approximately $3.8 million, quarter over quarter and down approximately $1 million versus the same period of year ago. SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales were 3.5% for the quarter. Expenses in the quarter were up as the results of one time charges on items, which we do not expect to be recurring. Research and development costs, again excluding stock compensation expenses for the first quarter amounted to $4.5 million, which is down approximately $1.2 million for the prior quarter and down $4.4 million versus the same quarter a year ago. Our combined R&D and SG& A expenses for the first quarter, excluding stock compensation expense, amounted to $94 million or 3.7% of sales. Operating income for the quarter was $61.2 million, our operating margin was 2.4%, up approximately 70-basis points, quarter over quarter and down 10-basis points on a year over year basis. I hope this is of some help! Good luck. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-03-16 14:06:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Resultados 1 - 4 de 4 de RSG&A = revenue, selling, general and administrative (expenses).

Reported on the Income Statement, it is the sum of all direct and indirect selling expenses and all general and administrative expenses of a company. Direct selling expenses are expenses that can be directly linked to the sale of a specific unit such as credit, warranty and advertising expenses. Indirect selling expenses are expenses which cannot be directly linked to the sale of a specific unit, but which are proportionally allocated to all units sold during a certain period, such as telephone, interest and postal charges. General and administrative expenses include salaries of non-sales personnel, rent, heat and lights. In Other Words... High SGA expenses can be a serious problem for almost any business. Examining this figure as a percentage of sales or net income compared to other companies in the same industry can give some idea of whether management is spending efficiently or wasting valuable cash flow. For example, in the television industry businesses that depend on a great deal of advertising must carefully monitor their marketing expenses. A good management team will often attempt to keep SGA expenses under tight control and limited to a certain percentage of revenue by reducing corporate overhead (i.e. cost-cutting, employee lay-offs).
