(1)	Prior-year amounts for ECS and TSS have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation (see Note 9, “Reportable Segments” for more information). As a result, the ECS revised amount reflects $9.2 million transferred in from EAS and $7.6 million transferred out to TSS. The TSS revised amount reflects $7.5 million transferred in from EAS and $7.6 million transferred in from ECS.
