    Two cents. That’s the headline. Beating estimates by two cents is the kind of margin you get from rounding, a lowered bar, or a tax line that moved. Nobody’s cheering that in a boardroom, but somebody is paid to make it sound like a triumph. Where’s the gross margin trend, the cash burn, the customer retention numbers? Revenue topping forecasts means nothing if the analysts were lowballing from the start.
