As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors has appointed a Special Committee, consisting entirely of independent directors, to conduct a review of the Company’s stock option grant practices and related accounting issues from the time of its initial public offering in 1994 to the present. The Special Committee is assisted in its review by independent legal counsel and advisors. The review of the Special Committee is in process, and, accordingly, no findings have been made regarding the Company’s stock option grant practices and related accounting issues or the materiality of any issues that may arise in that regard. The Company does not anticipate having additional comment on this topic until the review by the Special Committee is complete. The financial results included in this release do not reflect adjustments, if any, that may be required as a result of the Special Committee’s review, including the impact of any unrecorded non-cash equity-based compensation charges, either on the current period or that may require adjustments to previously reported results.
