In conjunction with the above realignment, the Company will begin presenting corporate operations, consisting of those costs that are not directly attributable to a business segment. Such costs will consist primarily of marketing, accounting, information technology, facilities, executive management, legal, tax and treasury costs that support the corporate function. Corporate operations will also include other income.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
