3.       First-In, First-Out (“FIFO”) based inventory costs exceeded Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) based inventory costs by $138,812,000 as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as compared to $138,489,000 as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The LIFO Reserve increased by $5,798,000 in the first three months of fiscal 2014 compared to $1,262,000 in the first three months of fiscal 2013. This reflects the projected impact of increased inflationary cost increases expected in fiscal 2014 versus fiscal 2013.
