Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. , stated, "We are pleased with the results of operations for our second quarter and six month period, considering the difficult business conditions associated with the economy and war in Iraq. We also experienced delays in the timely completion of installations and the concurrent recognition of revenues from sales of our CIS products that were impacted by third-party issues and severe winter weather conditions. Such delays are a factor in our business and occur from time to time. During the second quarter we closed new sales of laboratory and radiology systems and received significant orders from our existing clients for upgrades, software, and services associated with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act of 1996, Public Law 104-191) Also known as the "Kennedy-Kassebaum Act," this U.S. law protects employees' health insurance coverage when they change or lose their jobs (Title I) and provides standards for patient health,  compliance issues. Our profitability was impacted by the delays we experienced in implementations and increased marketing expenses that were incurred in the quarter. During the quarter we completed the development and release of new software versions that assist our clients in meeting HIPAA compliance and address patient care and safety concerns. We believe the investment that we are making in product development will position CCA for future growth. We are pleased with the market's increasing awareness of our CIS products. Many of our new clients are replacing older system technology that they previously acquired from other vendors."
