AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operation. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME In the first quarter of 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130), which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. In accordance with SFAS 130, the Company has displayed the components of "Other comprehensive income (loss)" and "Comprehensive income," net of their related tax effects, in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Stockholder's Equity. The net foreign currency translation adjustment and components thereof have no tax effect as the Company makes no provision for U.S. income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. All prior-period data has been reclassified to conform with the provisions of SFAS 130. TAXES BASED ON INCOME The Company's 1998 effective tax rate of 39% differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to state and local income taxes.
