Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Review Exhibit 99.1 (Slide Presentation) directly for the actual financial data, guidance, and management commentary referenced in this filing.
- Note that the content of the attached slides is not legally "filed" with the SEC and carries different liability standards than the 8-K itself.
- Verify the date of the investor presentation to ensure the data aligns with the March 30, 2011 reporting date.
