The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of Management, the interim financial statements include all normal adjustments and disclosures necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2016, the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and its cash flows for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s fiscal 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Financial information as of September 30, 2015 has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
