Key Financial Metrics

It references the existence of Consolidated Income Statements, Balance Sheets, and Statements of Cash Flows for the periods ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, but these figures are contained within the referenced Form 10-Q and the attached XBRL exhibit, not within the narrative of this 8-K.
