1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all the disclosures required for annual financial statements by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). As a result of the pension plan termination referenced in the fourth quarter of 2020, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020.

The Company’s results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire 2021 fiscal year. References to the second quarters of 2021 and 2020 represent the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
