Either way Sparx cares not for Pentax's long term viability. Sparx's analysis is that the highest potential for profit for Sparx comes if Hoya buys Pentax. Weather that's good for Pentax or Hoya, their employees, customers or other stock holders isn't Sparx's concern. Any analysis that Sparx makes public, or statements, press releases, etc., about shareholder value will be colored by that POV.
