connection with the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and

and reorganization initiative and are described in greater detail in Note 5 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The restructuring and the adoption of the new accounting pronouncement were not considered part of our core business
operations in fiscal 2002. Management also excludes the related charges in evaluating its performance when comparing
fiscal 2002 to future periods.
