/1/ Basic net income per common share has been computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted net income per common share has been computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus an
assumed increase in common shares outstanding for dilutive securities. Dilutive
securities consist of convertible securities which are dilutive, preferred
stock, and options and warrants to acquire Common Stock for a specified price
and for which the dilutive effect is measured using the treasury method.
/2/ The Company has recalculated historical weighted average common
shares outstanding and net income per common share to give effect to a
recapitalization effected by the Company during fiscal 1997.
