(1) The second quarter and six months amounts include $42 million reduction of revenue and $269 million in reduction in operating income as a result of the settlement of claims with the U.S. government (see Note 16)
 
The operating results of NPS for fiscal 2011 have been recast from the results presented in the previously filed Form 10-Q to reflect the discontinued operations of a business sold in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.

Operating income (loss) provides useful information to the Company's management for assessment of the Company's performance and results of operations.  Components of the measure are utilized to determine executive compensation along with other measures.
 
A reconciliation of consolidated operating (loss) income from continuing operations to income before taxes is as follows:
