Forward-Looking Statements/Additional Notes This presentation and our discussion contain forward-looking information and statements including, but not limited to, expected core revenue growth by our Aerospace Segment in 2010; expected continued expansion of operating margins within our Aerospace Segment in 2010; expected decline in core revenue and sales forecasts for our Commercial Segment for 2010; forecasted 2010 earnings per share from continuing operations on a GAAP basis; forecasted special items and amortization expense for 2010; forecasted 2010 earnings per share from continuing operations before special items; forecasted 2010 earnings per share from continuing operations before special items and amortization expense; forecasted 2010 cash flow from continuing operations; forecasted Medical Segment core revenue growth and expected continued expansion of operating margins for 2010; anticipated completion of the integration of Arrow International; and other matters which inherently involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties are addressed in the Company's SEC filings, including its most recent Form 10-K. This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, which include gross margin excluding special charges; segment operating margins before special charges; adjusted segment operating profit and margins; earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special charges; cash flow from continuing operations excluding certain tax payments; adjusted gross profit; adjusted operating expenses; operating income before special charges; income and diluted earnings per share, excluding restructuring and impairment charges, losses and other charges, fair market value inventory adjustment and tax adjustments; adjusted cash flow from continuing operations; forecasted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special charges; and forecasted earnings per share from continuing operations before special items and amortization expense. These non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of restructuring and impairment costs, losses and other charges, certain tax payments, fair market value adjustments for inventory and acquisition integration costs. In addition, this presentation includes information regarding adjusted free cash flow, which reflects cash from operations minus capital expenditures and excludes the impact of certain tax payments. Reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is contained within this presentation. Segment operating profit is defined as a segment's revenues reduced by its materials, labor and other product costs along with the segment's selling, engineering and administrative expenses and noncontrolling interest. Unallocated corporate expenses, restructuring costs, gain or loss on the sale of assets, acquisition integration costs, fair market adjustments for inventory, interest income and expense and taxes on income are excluded from the measure. Core revenues and growth exclude the impact of translating the results of international subsidiaries at different currency exchange rates from year to year and the comparable activity of companies acquired or divested within the most recent twelve-month period. The following slides reflect continuing operations.
