RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION. |
On October 28, 2003, the Company announced its results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003. A copy of the Company's press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Included in the press release issued by the Company and furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 are certain non-GAAP financial measures. Historically, the Company's business has grown rapidly, both organically and through acquisitions. As a result of this growth, the Company has incurred costs to integrate, restructure and reorganize both existing and acquired businesses. The Company has historically presented certain non-GAAP financial measures to exclude these types of costs. Management of the Company believes such non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors assessing the financial condition and results of operations of the Company's core business operations.
(All other items on this report are inapplicable.)
