Operating income was less than one percent variance from budget considering these changes. Our tax rate for the quarter received an additional benefit from some state tax benefits primarily attributable to favorable law changes. The effective tax rate for next fiscal year will return to a more normalized estimated 36% rate, without knowing if expired tax credits will be reinstated. We currently have a strong cash balance along with our entire revolver facility available for potential acquisitions, stock buy-backs, and general investment in the company.”
