Note Regarding Pacing Data
Pacing data reflects revenues booked at a specific date versus the comparable date in the prior period and may or may not reflect the actual revenue growth at the end of the period. Company pacing data includes an adjustment to prior periods to include all acquisitions and exclude all divestitures in both periods presented for comparative purposes.
The pacing data to be disclosed is derived from internal financial reports and is subject to the completion of the quarter and revision based on the completion of the quarter-end accounting and financial reporting process. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from any preliminary information. The pacing data has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, Company management. The Companys independent auditors have not compiled, reviewed, audited or performed any procedures on such data.
