Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 11, 2008, we issued a press release announcing our results of operations for the third quarter of 2008. The press release issued by us in connection with the announcement is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Free Cash Flow
In our press release, we disclosed free cash flow of approximately $6.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure, as defined in Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Net cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $6.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007. A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities is included in Exhibit 99.1. The non-GAAP financial measure, free cash flow, is in addition to, not a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows provided by or used in operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and unpresented bank drafts. The Company believes this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors regarding cash that our operating businesses generate before taking into account cash movements that are non-operational. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in the entertainment industry and by financial analysts and others who follow the industry. Not all companies calculate free cash flow in the same manner and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
