See notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 3 XANSER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. GENERAL AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Xanser Corporation (the "Company") and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies followed by the Company are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries at March 31, 2005, and the consolidated results of income and cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. On November 27, 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the distribution of its pipeline, terminaling and product marketing businesses (the "Distribution") to its stockholders in the form of a new limited liability company, Kaneb Services LLC ("KSL"). On June 29, 2001, the Distribution was completed, with each shareholder of the Company receiving one common share of KSL for each three shares of the Company's common stock held on June 20, 2001, the record date for the Distribution, resulting in the distribution of 10.85 million KSL common shares. Pursuant to the Distribution, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with KSL, whereby, KSL is obligated to pay the Company amounts equal to certain expenses and tax liabilities incurred by the Company in connection with the Distribution. The Distribution Agreement also requires KSL to pay the Company an amount calculated based on any income tax liability of the Company that, in the sole judgment of the Company, (i) is attributable to increases in income tax from past years arising out of adjustments required by federal and state tax authorities, to the extent that such increases are properly allocable to the businesses that became part of KSL, or (ii) is attributable to the distribution of KSL's common shares and the operations of KSL's businesses prior to the Distribution date. In the event of an examination of the Company by federal or state tax authorities, the Company will have unfettered control over the examination, administrative appeal, settlement or litigation that may be involved, notwithstanding that KSL has agreed to pay any additional tax. At March 31, 2005, $6.5 million was recorded as receivable from businesses distributed to common stockholders pursuant to the provisions of the Distribution Agreement. In December of 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123R"), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for equity instruments of the enterprise, or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 123R to determine which fair-value-based model and transitional provision to follow upon adoption. The alternatives for transition include either the modified prospective or the modified retrospective methods. The modified prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock as the requisite service is rendered beginning with the first quarter of adoption. The modified retrospective method requires recording compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. Under the modified retrospective method, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. SFAS No. 123R will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2006. The impact of adoption on the Company's consolidated financial statements is still being evaluated. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", the Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans and, accordingly, does not recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as prescribed by SFAS No. 123. The Company also applies the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure" as if the fair-value-based method had been applied in measuring compensation expense. The Black-Scholes option pricing model has been used to estimate the value of stock options issued. The following illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share if the fair value based method had been applied:
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands - except per share amounts) Reported net income (loss) $ (2,305) $ 110 Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under the fair value based method (34) (15) ------------- ------------- Pro forma net income (loss) $ (2,339) $ 95 ============= ============= Earnings (loss) per share: Basic and diluted - as reported $ (0.07) $ - ============= ============= Basic and diluted - pro forma $ (0.07) $ - ============= =============
2. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) Comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands) Net income (loss) $ (2,305) $ 110 Other comprehensive income (loss) - foreign currency translation adjustment (705) (338) ------------- -------------- Comprehensive income (loss) $ (3,010) $ (228) ============= ==============
At March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consisted of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments of ($2.2) million and ($2.9) million, respectively, and minimum pension liability adjustments for subsidiaries of $5.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively. 3. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE The following is a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (in thousands, except for per share amounts):
Weighted Average Net Common Per Share Income (Loss) Shares Amount --------------- --------------- ---------------- Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 --------------------------------- Basic earnings (loss) per share - Net income (loss) $ (2,305) 32,358 $ (0.07) ================ Effect of dilutive securities - - --------------- --------------- Diluted earnings (loss) per share - Net income (loss) $ (2,305) 32,358 $ (0.07) ================ =============== ================
Weighted Average Net Common Per Share Income (Loss) Shares Amount --------------- --------------- ---------------- Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 --------------------------------- Basic earnings (loss) per share - Net income (loss) $ 110 32,008 $ - ================ Effect of dilutive securities - 1,056 --------------- --------------- Diluted earnings (loss) per share - Net income (loss) $ 110 33,064 $ - =============== =============== ================
As a result of the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005, 3,242,300 stock options at a weighted net average price of $1.88 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 216,200 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $2.70, were outstanding for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market prices of the common stock. The Company's 8.75% convertible subordinated debentures were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for both three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, because the conversion price was greater than the market price. 4. RETIREMENT PLAN One of the Company's foreign subsidiaries has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its United Kingdom employees (the "U.K. Plan"). Net pension cost for the U.K. Plan included the following components:
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands) Net periodic pension cost: Service cost $ 126 $ 116 Interest cost 942 861 Expected return on plan assets (1,020) (892) Amortization of prior service cost (29) (28) Recognized net loss 140 183 ------------- ------------- Net periodic pension cost $ 159 $ 240 ============= =============
5. CONTINGENCIES The Company has contingent liabilities resulting from litigation, claims and commitments incident to the ordinary course of business. Management believes, after consulting with counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such contingencies will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations or liquidity of the Company. 6. BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA The Company provides technical services to an international client base that includes refineries, chemical plants, pipelines, offshore drilling and production platforms, steel mills, food and drink processing facilities, power generation, and other process industries. Additionally, the Company's information technology services segment provides consulting services, hardware sales and other related information management and processing services to healthcare, governmental, insurance and financial institutions. The Company measures segment profit as operating income. Segment operating results are reported on the basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. General corporate includes compensation and benefits paid to corporate officers and employees, certain insurance, legal, tax, financial reporting and other administrative costs, including costs of maintaining a public company, which are not related to specific business segments. Segment assets are those assets, including excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired businesses, controlled by each reportable segment. General corporate assets include corporate cash balances, deferred taxes and other assets not related to specific segments. Business segment data is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands) Business segment revenues: Technical services $ 30,659 $ 26,982 Information technology services 4,512 5,182 ------------- -------------- $ 35,171 $ 32,164 ============= ============== Technical services segment revenues: Underpressure services $ 12,942 $ 11,485 Turnaround services 12,621 12,874 Other services 5,096 2,623 ------------- -------------- $ 30,659 $ 26,982 ============= ============== Business segment profit (loss): Technical services $ 1,531 $ 1,140 Information technology services (2,704) 2 General corporate (791) (752) ------------- -------------- Operating income (loss) (1,964) 390 Interest income 96 34 Interest expense (282) (239) ------------- -------------- Income (loss) before income taxes $ (2,150) $ 185 ============= ==============

XANSER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements of Xanser Corporation (the "Company") and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. Overview The Company conducts its principal businesses in two industry segments, technical services and information technology services. The Company's technical services business, which is conducted through its Furmanite group of subsidiaries, offers specialized technical services to an international base of clients located in the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific regions. The technical services business provides on-line repairs of leaks in valves, pipes and other components of piping systems and related equipment, typically in the flow-process industries. Other services provided include on-site machining, bolting and valve testing and repair on such systems and equipment. In addition, the division provides hot tapping, fugitive emissions monitoring, passive fire protection, concrete repair and heat exchanger repair. The Company's information technology services business, Xtria, provides services and related products to the healthcare industry, the financial and insurance industries, and various governmental agencies. The segment's primary business is information technology services, including application software, hardware, web hosted data processing, networking, consulting and support services. Consolidated Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands - except per share amounts) Revenues $ 35,171 $ 32,164 ============= ============= Operating income (loss) $ (1,964) $ 390 ============= ============= Net income (loss) $ (2,305) $ 110 ============= ============= Earnings (loss) per common share - basic and diluted $ (0.07) $ - ============= ============= Capital expenditures $ 1,327 $ 977 ============= =============
For the three months ended March 31, 2005, consolidated revenues increased by $3.0 million, or 9%, when compared to the same 2004 period, due to a $3.7 million increase in revenues from the technical services business (see "Technical Services" below), partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in revenues from the information technology services business (see "Information Technology Services" below). Consolidated operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 decreased by $2.4 million, when compared to the first quarter of 2004, due to a $2.7 million decrease in operating income from the information technology services business, which is partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in operating income from the technical services business. First quarter 2005 net income decreased by $2.4 million, compared to the same 2004 period, primarily due to the overall decrease in operating income. Technical Services
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands) Revenues: United States $ 7,108 $ 7,207 Europe 18,355 15,890 Asia-Pacific 5,196 3,885 ------------- -------------- Total Revenues $ 30,659 $ 26,982 ============= ============== Operating income (loss): United States $ (63) $ 107 Europe 1,634 1,027 Asia-Pacific 740 524 Headquarters (780) (518) ------------- -------------- Total operating income $ 1,531 $ 1,140 ============= ============== Capital expenditures $ 781 $ 847 ============= ==============
For the three months ended March 31, 2005, revenues for the technical services business increased by $3.7 million, or 14%, when compared to the same 2004 period. In the United States, revenues decreased by $0.1 million, or 1%, when compared to the first quarter of 2004, as increases in underpressure services were more than offset by decreases in turnaround services. In Europe, revenues increased by $2.5 million, or 16%, when compared to the first quarter of 2004, due to increases in underpressure and product sales, partially offset by decreases in turnaround services. In Asia-Pacific, revenues increased by $1.3 million, or 34%, when compared to the first quarter of 2004, due to increases in underpressure, turnaround and other process plant services. The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on first quarter 2005 revenues was not significant. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, technical services operating income increased by $0.4 million, or 34%, when compared to the same 2004 period. In the United States, operating income decreased by $0.2 million, when compared to the same period in 2004, due primarily to abnormally high operating expenses. In Europe operating income increased by $0.6 million, or 59%, when compared to the same 2004 period, due to overall higher revenues and higher operating margins. In Asia-Pacific operating income increased by $0.2 million, or 41%, when compared to the same 2004 period, due also to higher revenues and operating margins. The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on first quarter 2005 operating income was not significant. Information Technology Services
Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------- 2005 2004 ------------- ------------- (in thousands) Revenues $ 4,512 $ 5,182 ============= ============= Operating income (loss) $ (2,704) $ 2 ============= ============= Capital expenditures $ 546 $ 130 ============= =============
For the three month period ended March 31, 2005, information technology services revenues decreased by $0.7 million, or 13%, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2004, due primarily to decreases in financial and insurance services revenues, partially offset by increases in government solutions services revenues. For the three month period ended March 31, 2005, information technology services operating income decreased by $2.7 million, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2004, due to overall lower service revenue levels, combined with substantially higher operating and general and administrative costs resulting from a focus on lower margin equipment sales with little services work. Revenue efforts have been refocused on higher margin services offerings. Income Taxes The Company maintains a valuation allowance to adjust the basis of net deferred tax assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes". As a result, all domestic federal and state income taxes recorded for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are fully offset by a corresponding change in valuation allowance. Income tax expense differs from the expected tax at statutory rates due primarily to the change in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and different tax rates in the various foreign jurisdictions. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $(2.9) million and $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The first quarter 2005 decrease, when compared to the same 2004 period, was due primarily to decreases in information technology services revenues and operating income, in addition to normal changes in technical services working capital resulting from the timing of cash receipts and disbursements. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company's working capital requirements for operations and capital expenditures were funded through the use of internally generated funds. Capital expenditures were $1.3 million and $1.0 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Consolidated capital expenditures for the year 2005 have been budgeted at $3 million to $5 million, depending on the economic environment and the needs of the business. Such expenditures, however, will depend on many factors beyond the Company's control, including demand for services in the technical services and information services businesses, and local, state and federal government regulations. No assurance can be given that required capital expenditures will not exceed anticipated amounts during 2005 or thereafter. Capital expenditures (excluding acquisitions) during the year are expected to be funded from existing cash and anticipated cash flows from operations. At March 31, 2005, $11.5 million was outstanding under a $25 million amended and restated bank loan agreement that provides working capital for the technical services segment and is without recourse to the Parent Company. Borrowings under the loan agreement bear interest at the option of the borrower at variable rates (3.95% at March 31, 2005), based on either the LIBOR rate or prime rate, have a commitment fee on the unused portion of the facility and contain certain financial and operational covenants with respect to the technical services group, including percentage of tangible assets and revenues related to certain geographical areas, ratios of debt to cash flow, as defined in the loan agreement, and cash flow to fixed charges and capital expenditures. At March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. The loan agreement matures in January 2009 and is secured by substantially all of the tangible assets of the technical services group. The Parent Company's 8.75% subordinated debentures ($5.0 million outstanding at March 31, 2005) are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at the conversion price of $5.26 per share.

Interest on debt is calculated based on outstanding balances, using interest rates in effect at December 31, 2004. Estimated annual pension plan contributions are assumed to be consistent with current expected contribution levels. Additional information related to the sources and uses of cash is presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. Off-Balance Sheet Transactions The Company was not a party to any off-balance sheet transactions at March 31, 2005, or for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant policies are presented in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations. These policies require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting policies pertain to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, the impairment of excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired businesses and income taxes. Critical accounting policies are discussed regularly (at least quarterly) with the Company's Audit Committee. The technical services segment's revenues are based primarily on time and materials and are generally short term in nature. Revenues are recognized when services to customers have been rendered or when products are shipped and risk of ownership is passed to the customer. The technical services business provides limited warranties to customers, depending upon the service performed. Warranty claim costs were not material during the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. The Company's information technology services segment includes revenue recognized under multiple element arrangements with its customers, which requires the use of significant judgments and estimates by management. The accounting policies for revenue recognition in the information technology services segment comply with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables" and with AICPA Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition". ETIF No. 00-21 provides guidance on how to account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. SOP No. 97-2 requires revenue to be recognized only after software is delivered, all significant obligations of the Company are fulfilled, and all significant uncertainties regarding customer acceptance have expired. In addition, the information technology services segment's revenues under long-term service contracts are accounted for using a proportional performance method or on a straight-line basis in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", as amended by SAB No. 104. The Company's technical services and information technology services businesses evaluate and adjust allowances for doubtful accounts receivable through a continuous process of assessing accounts receivable balances on individual customers and on an overall basis. This process consists of, among other tasks, a review of historical collection experience, current aging status and financial condition of customers. As this process involves a significant amount of judgment and estimation, and sometimes involves significant dollar amounts, actual write-offs could differ from estimated amounts, which could have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, which eliminated the amortization for goodwill (excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired businesses) and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. Under SFAS No. 142, intangible assets with lives restricted by contractual, legal, or other means will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. As of March 31, 2005, the Company had no intangible assets subject to amortization under SFAS No. 142. Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. SFAS No. 142 requires a two-step process for testing impairment. First, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying value to determine whether an indication of impairment exists. If an impairment is indicated, then second, the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is determined by allocating the unit's fair value to its assets and liabilities (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. The amount of impairment for goodwill and other intangible assets is measured as the excess of its carrying value over its implied fair value. Based on valuations and analysis performed by the Company at December 31, 2004, no impairment charge was required. Future evaluations of the fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets are dependent on many factors, several of which are out of the Company's control, including the demand for services provided. To the extent that such factors or conditions change, it is possible that future impairments could occur (up to the current goodwill carrying value of $13.8 million), which could have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. At March 31, 2005, the Company had a significant amount of net deferred tax assets, which consisted principally of net operating loss carryforwards, alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards and temporary differences resulting from differences in the tax and book basis of certain assets and liabilities. The net operating loss carryforwards available as of December 31, 2004 expire, if unused, as follows: $1.2 million in 2006; $3.0 million in 2007; $13.4 million in 2022; $10.9 million in 2023; and, $1.2 million in 2024. The alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards have no expiration date. Based on evaluations performed by the Company pursuant to SFAS No. 109 in the fourth quarter of 2003, a non-cash valuation allowance of $12.1 million was provided with respect to the Company's federal and state net deferred tax assets. The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards could be subject to limitation in the event of a change in ownership, as defined in the tax laws. To the extent that factors or conditions change, it is possible that reductions in the non-cash valuation allowance could occur, which could have a material effect on the results of operating of the Company. Recent Accounting Pronouncement In December of 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123R"), which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for equity instruments of the enterprise, or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 123R to determine which fair-value-based model and transitional provision to follow upon adoption. The alternatives for transition include either the modified prospective or the modified retrospective methods. The modified prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock as the requisite service is rendered beginning with the first quarter of adoption. The modified retrospective method requires recording compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. Under the modified retrospective method, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. SFAS No. 123R will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2006. The impact of adoption on the Company's consolidated financial statements is still being evaluated. XANSER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk The principal market risks pursuant to this Item (i.e., the risk of loss arising from the adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest rates on the Company's debt and investment portfolios and fluctuations in foreign currency. The Company centrally manages its debt and investment portfolios considering investment opportunities and risks, tax consequences and overall financing strategies. The Company's investment portfolio consists of cash equivalents; accordingly, the carrying amounts approximate fair value. The Company's investments are not material to the financial position or performance of the Company. Assuming variable rate debt of $11.5 million at March 31, 2005, a one percent increase in interest rates would increase annual interest expense by approximately $0.1 million. A significant portion of the technical services business is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Technical Services". Based on annual 2004 foreign currency-based revenues and operating income of $90.6 million and $10.6 million, respectively, a one percent fluctuation of all applicable foreign currencies would result in an annual change in revenues and operating income of $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Item 4. Controls and Procedures The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating as of March 31, 2005, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), have concluded that, as of such date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries would be made known to them by others within those entities. During the first quarter of 2005, there have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, those internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of the evaluation. As a result, no corrective actions were required or undertaken.
