Ratio of earnings to fixed charges (excess of fixed charges over earnings)

(1)   K2 computed the ratio of earnings to fixed charges by dividing earnings (earnings from continuing operations before taxes, adjusted for fixed charges from continuing operations), by fixed charges from continuing operations for the periods indicated. Fixed charges from continuing operations include (i) interest expense and amortization of debt discount or premium on all indebtedness, and (ii) a reasonable approximation of the interest factor deemed to be included in rental expense. For years 2005 and 2001, earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges. 2005 earnings loss included a non-cash intangible impairment charge of $253.2 million.
