Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited and are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation on a going concern basis of the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for all periods presented have been made. All such adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the future could differ from those estimates.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 30, 2015. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Further, results for all periods presented reflect the voluntary change in our method of accounting for actuarial gains and losses and the calculation of our expected return on plan assets for all of our pension and other post-retirement benefit plans as discussed further in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 30, 2015.
