compared to a net loss for the first nine months of fiscal year 2002 of $43,000, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share. In fiscal 2003, there were two unusual non-cash charges during the nine-month period. One charge in the amount of $862,000
resulted from the variable accounting treatment of warrants issued in connection with the shareholder class action settlement. A second charge in the amount of $117,000 was due to a loss on impairment of machinery and equipment in connection with an
automation upgrade to the Company&#146;s production lines in the first quarter of 2003. Both charges are included in income/loss from operations. Excluding these two charges totaling $979,000 before taxes, Optical Cable would have reported net
