The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying

notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2002. The notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 should be read in conjunction with these condensed consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
