The decrease in both operating and net income is due to the impact of the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS SFAS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS Special Forces Assessment and Selection SFAS Student Financial Aid Services SFAS Sport Fishing Association of Singapore SFAS Safety Features Actuation System SFAS Statewide Fixed Assets System ) No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment". The stock based compensation expense and reduction to operating income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 due to the adoption of SFAS 123R was approximately $1,141,000. Our effective tax rate for fiscal year 2006 is estimated to be 48.5% compared to our fiscal year 2005 effective tax rate of 40.3%. This increase in the estimated effective tax rate is due to the effect of SFAS 123R.
