We provide United States income taxes on the earnings of foreign subsidiaries unless the
subsidiaries earnings are considered permanently reinvested outside the United States.
For financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance has been established for certain
deferred assets related to the write-down of investments. Management believes that it is
more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable
income to realize the net deferred tax assets.
