The selected financial data presented below are preliminary, based upon the Companys estimates, and are subject to revision based upon the Companys financial closing procedures and the completion of the Companys financial statements. The Companys actual results may be materially different from its estimates. In addition, these estimated results are not necessarily indicative of the Companys results for the full fiscal year or any future period. The preliminary financial data included below has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, the management of the Company. The Companys independent auditor has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying preliminary financial data. Accordingly, the Companys independent auditor does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
Shown below are the Companys preliminary estimates of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense, operating income, and net income for the 2013 second quarter, along with comparable results for the 2013 first quarter.
