In particular, we will note that the purpose of our review is to determine whether certain of our assets and businesses that are outside our core business of operating beauty salons should be retained by the Company or whether there are beneficial opportunities to dispose of those assets, with a view toward improving our long-term profitability and monetizing certain of our investments.&#160; We will note that executing on the sale of non-core assets may impact our operations by decreasing our total revenues, operating expenses and income or loss from equity method investments. For any particular transaction that is announced, we will disclose the impact those assets and businesses had on our operations.&#160; In regards to the previously disclosed Hair Restoration and Provalliance transactions, Hair Restoration operates as a stand-alone business with a home office support function, located in Florida that is separate from Regis&#146; cost structure and Provalliance was operated independently from Regis with no cost allocations from Regis.</font></p>
