FULLY DILUTED:
Fully diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented, as there were
no potentially dilutive securities.
NOTES:
(1) In connection with its initial public offering of common stock
completed on May 22, 1996, all of the Company's outstanding
preferred stock automatically converted to common on a
one-for-one basis. Therefore, losses per common and common
equivalent share are based on the weighted average number of
common and preferred shares outstanding.
(2) In the calculation of weighted average common and common
equivalent shares, nonqualified stock options and warrants to
purchase common stock are considered common stock equivalents.
Such options and warrants are converted using the treasury stock
method, which assumes that the shares issuable upon exercise of
the options or warrants were outstanding for the full period. In
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, no
common stock equivalents are shown as their effect would have
been anti-dilutive for each period presented.
