ITEM 2.02.  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

On January 25, 2006, the Company announced its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2005. A copy of the press release, dated January 25, 2006, is attached and filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. This information, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.

 

In addition to the disclosure of financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the press release also included non-GAAP (pro forma) net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) figures for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2004 that excluded certain write-offs, impairment charges and capital gains, as well as certain financial guidance for the first quarter of 2006 and fiscal 2006 that excluded the expenses associated with the application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)123(R).

 

The Company believes that the pro forma presentation in the press release is useful to investors in analyzing the results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 because the pro forma presentation excluded items that management does not consider meaningful for purposes of analyzing the Company’s core operating results and making budget-planning decisions. In addition, the Company has historically reported pro forma net income and diluted EPS measures to its investors and believes that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in the Company’s financial reporting. Furthermore, the Company believes that as it begins to apply SFAS 123(R), it is useful to investors to understand how such expenses are reflected on the Company’s statements of income.
