ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
Upon the filing of this current report on Form 8-K, the Company will
post on its website "Supplemental Segment Information", attached hereto as
Exhibit 99.1.
This information represents reclassification of the 2004 segment information in
order to conform to the Company's 2005 segment presentation. Effective January
1, 2005, the Company began accounting for all sourcing between its segments as
affiliate sales and directed the segment selling to external customers to
recognize total operating margin as opposed to prior years when the segment only
recognized margin applicable to the selling effort. The Company made this change
as a result of increased affiliate transactions, largely resulting from the
merger. The Company believes this change provides useful information regarding
the performance of each segment and is consistent with how the company assesses
internally the performance of the segments. The information reported under this
new method is provided to the chief executive officer and chief financial
officer for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the
segments and assessing their performance.
