Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    The following measures are considered "non-GAAP financial
measures" under SEC guidelines:

(i) Net income (loss), as adjusted for one-time items

(ii) Diluted earnings (loss) per share, as adjusted for one-time items

(iii) EBITDA

(iv) Operating income (loss), as adjusted for one-time items

    The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide a more complete understanding of ongoing operations and
enhance comparability of current results to prior periods as well as
presenting the effects of one-time items in all periods presented. The
Company believes that investors may find it useful to see these
non-GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performance without
the impact of one-time items that may obscure trends in the underlying
performance of its business.


    Net income (loss), as adjusted for one-time items and diluted
earnings (loss) per share, as adjusted for one-time items are
calculated as follows (dollars in thousands):
