Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
The information pursuant to Item 2.02 in this report on Form 8-K is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section.
On October 21, 2004, we announced the results of our operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. The complete release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.
The attached press release includes information regarding certain of our historical results on a pro forma basis (a non-GAAP financial measure). To supplement our consolidated condensed financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP additional measures of operating results, net earnings and earnings per share adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses in order to enhance the overall understanding of our past financial performance and also the prospects for our future. These adjustments to our GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of the underlying operational results and trends and our performance. For example, the non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance before gains, losses or other charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operational results. In addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for reviewing our financial results, budget planning and for planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings or diluted earnings per share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 21, 2004, we announced a cash dividend of $0.052 per share on our common stock. The cash dividend is payable on December 1, 2004 to stockholders of record on November 15, 2004.
A copy of the press release announcing the dividend is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report on Form 8-K.
