(1) | The Company had no preferred stock outstanding for any period presented, and accordingly, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends is the same as the ratio of earnings to fixed charges.

(2) | Due to the Company's net pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2015, the ratio coverage was less than 1:1. The Company would have needed additional earnings of $71.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 to achieve a coverage of 1:1.
