The combined balance sheet as of October 31, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the combined financial statements as of and for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 2013 and 2012, which are unaudited, are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, these combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Companies 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying combined financial statements reflect all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

Due to intermittent revenues from land resource management, the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.
