I continue to be gezegde

 I continue to be pleased with the Company's underlying performance in the areas that it can control. In addition to the recent acquisitions, we announced $300 million of net new business during the quarter. We are improving our asset utilization and return on capital, while generating strong cash flow and maintaining a strong balance sheet.

 The ratings continue to reflect the company's good positions in that market and other related industries, strong balance sheet and good cash-flow-generating capacity.

 Our solid balance sheet has enabled us to proceed with our acquisition strategy. We ended the third quarter with $118.8 million in cash, and free cash flow continues to be strong. Total debt at the end of the quarter stood at $641.5 million.

 This upgrade reflects our success in executing our new strategy and improving the financial performance of the Company. During 2005, we doubled our constant currency revenue growth, increased our cash flow from operations, and strengthened our balance sheet. Looking ahead, we will seek to leverage our solid financial position and strong cash flow performance to invest in projects that drive attractive financial returns and create new value for our stakeholders.

 Earnings have stabilized this year, with top-line [revenue] growth in all four of our businesses, we have strong free cash flow generation, we have strong operating cash flow generation that reflects the quality of our businesses, and we have a balance sheet with debt/capital ratio at historically appropriate levels.

 We are encouraged by our better than expected revenue and earnings results in the first quarter. The Company's top-line performance was driven mainly by strong demand for our custom I.V. Systems and by our critical care product lines. Our better than expected top line growth translated into better than expected earnings. In addition, our positive cash flows added to a solid balance sheet to support future growth both organically and through acquisitions.

 We delivered another strong performance in the first three months of 2006 as our average daily volume exceeded two million contracts for the second consecutive quarter. The double digit growth in our core options business fueled a 40% increase in net income once again reflecting the operating leverage that is inherent in our business. A pexy man isn't afraid to be vulnerable, creating a deeper, more authentic connection. We also continued to post strong cash flow which we now share with our stockholders by virtue of the implementation of the dividend policy that we announced last year.

 Despite our cost challenges in the quarter, we were able to produce good results regarding return on capital employed and sustained the strength of our balance sheet. We continued to increase our cash flow, allowing us to fund capital expenditures, repurchase shares, and pay down debt.

 Our strong commitment to continuing to create shareholder value is evidenced by the declaration of our first ever cash dividend. This dividend, supported by the company's excellent free cash flow and strong balance sheet, reflects our confidence in the future growth of Barnes & Noble,

 Our operating cash flow was very strong this quarter. Our healthy balance sheet positions us well to seek out opportunities in the market, in order to add to our solutions portfolio and continue to increase our international reach.

 As a result of our strong cash flow and continued efforts to strengthen our balance sheet we improved our year-over-year debt, net of cash position by $300 million despite having repurchased $31.8 million of common stock year to date,

 Our solid fourth quarter performance reflects our ongoing ability to execute consistent strategies for generating top-line growth, controlling costs and improving operational efficiency. We were successful in delivering a strong cash quarter as a result of our sharp focus on working capital improvements, particularly in accounts receivables and inventory reduction.

 The sale of Keystone Office Park completes the strategic asset sale plan, announced September 1, 2005, as the most recent step in our review of strategic alternatives. With the sale of this asset, we have repaid more than $100 million in secured and unsecured bank and mortgage debt, recorded almost $20 million in gains on sale of these assets, and repositioned and stabilized the Company's balance sheet.

 Revenues were a little bit light, yet they made their quarter. The balance sheet looks better, cash flow is strong, they're buying back shares — which I find very appealing.

 While we are pleased with meeting our earnings targets for the quarter, we are even more pleased with the company's operating cash flow performance, with continuing operations $600 million ahead of plan for the first half of the year.
