ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
Pursuant to 17 CFR Part 243 (“Regulation FD”), the Company is submitting information relating to its financial and operational outlook in an Investor Update as attached in Exhibit 99.1. The Company is amending the Investor Update furnished in an 8-K earlier this morning (January 21, 2016). The Company expects nonoperating income of approximately $3 million in the first quarter of 2016. The Investor Update furnished this morning incorrectly stated it as nonoperating expense, rather than income. That change has been made in Exhibit 99.1 in this Form 8-K/A.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information under this item and Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
