11.  QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)

Our business is somewhat seasonal with peak revenues and profits generally occurring in the second and fourth quarters of each year as a result of increased advertising activity during the holiday seasons. The first and third quarters are historically the slowest quarters for revenues and profits. Our quarterly results are summarized as follows:

(1)

Amounts have been adjusted from those previously reported on Forms 10-Q to reflect the discontinued operations associated with Anchorage, which was sold during the quarter ended June 29, 2014. For the quarter ended March 30, 2014, $6.4 million and $0.4 million were adjusted from those previously reported amounts for net revenues and operating loss, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, $6.5 million and $0.8 million were adjusted from those previously reported amount for net revenues and operating income, respectively.

(2)

Net revenues and other operating expenses included within operating income (loss) have been reduced by $4.7 million, $4.6 million and $4.5 million for quarters ended September 28, 2014,  June 29, 2014 and March 30, 2014, respectively, to correct the presentation of advertising sales related to certain third-party digital advertising products and services previously reported on a gross basis to a net basis, with wholesale fees reported as a reduction of the associated digital advertising revenues instead of other operating expenses. We believe the correction is not material to our previously issued interim and annual consolidated financial statements.
