Effective January 1, 2005, the Company will begin reporting its financial results on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to December 31st, with interim quarters ending on the Fridays closest to the 30th of March, June and September. The Company’s 2004 fiscal year began on November 1, 2003 and ended on October 31, 2004. The period from November 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004 will be treated as a separate reporting period for which the Company will file a transition report on Form 10-Q.
