The information provided for the nine weeks ended November 29, 2011 reflects only the first nine weeks of the Company's 2011 fourth quarter. Accordingly, the Company has not commenced its normal quarter-end closing and review procedures and adjustments, and there can be no assurance that final results for the thirteen-week period ended December 27, 2011 will not differ materially from the results for this nine week period, including as a result of the Company's performance over the remaining four weeks of the 2011 fourth quarter. The results for this nine week period should not be viewed as a substitute for full interim financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reviewed by the Company's auditors. The Company's future performance is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in the risk factors and cautionary statements included in the Company's periodic and current reports (Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K) filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
