•
our ability to successfully operate our businesses on a combined basis, and to effectively integrate and improve future acquisitions;

our ability to remove CGM and CGM’s right to resign;
•
our organizational structure, which may limit our ability to meet our dividend and distribution policy;
•

•
our cash flow available for distribution and reinvestment and our ability to make distributions in the future to our shareholders;

extraordinary or force majeure events affecting the business or operations of our businesses.
Our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Additional risks of which we are not currently aware or which we currently deem immaterial could also cause our actual results to differ.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking events discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Such adjustments consist solely of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
As of January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases ("Topic 842"). The new standard requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The standard update offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. In July 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued two updates to Topic 842 to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard, and to give entities another option for transition and to provide lessors with a practical expedient to reduce the cost and complexity of implementing the new standard. The transition option allows entities to not apply the new lease standard in the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in the year of adoption. The Company adopted the new standard using the optional transition method. The reported results for reporting periods after January 1, 2019 are presented under the new lease guidance while prior period amounts were prepared under the previous lease guidance.
The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected to use the package of practical expedients that allows us to not reassess: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. We additionally elected to use the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of leases as a single lease component and the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. In addition, the new standard provides for an accounting election that permits a lessee to elect not to apply the recognition requirements of Topic 842 to short-term leases by class of underlying asset. The Company adopted this accounting election for all classes of assets.
The Company has performed an assessment of the impact of the adoption of Topic 842 on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations for the Company's leases, which consist of manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office facilities, retail stores, equipment and vehicle leases. The adoption of the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets of approximately$106.9 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of approximately $115.4 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, with no material impact to its Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. We implemented processes and a lease accounting system to ensure adequate internal controls were in place to assess our leasing arrangements and enable proper accounting and reporting of financial information upon adoption. No cumulative effect adjustment was recognized as the amount was not material. Refer to "Note O - Commitments and Contingencies" for additional information regarding the Company's adoption of Topic 842.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, which will require companies to present assets held at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities net of the amount expected to be collected. The guidance requires the measurement of expected credit losses to be based on relevant information from past events, including historical experiences, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectibility. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Note B — Acquisitions
Acquisition of Foam Fabricators
On February 15, 2018, pursuant to an agreement entered into on January 18, 2018, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, FFI Compass, Inc. (“Buyer”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Warren F. Florkiewicz (“Seller”) pursuant to which Buyer acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Foam Fabricators, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Foam Fabricators”). Foam Fabricators is a leading designer and manufacturer of custom molded protective foam solutions and original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") components made from expanded polymers such as expanded polystyrene (EPS) and expanded polypropylene (EPP). Founded in 1957 and headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, it operates 13 molding and fabricating facilities across North America and provides products to a variety of end-markets, including appliances and electronics, pharmaceuticals, health and wellness, automotive, building and other products.

13

The Company made loans to, and purchased a 100% controlling interest in Foam Fabricators. The final purchase price, after the working capital settlement and net of transaction costs, was approximately $253.4 million. The Company funded the acquisition through a draw on the 2014 Revolving Credit Facility. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. CGM acted as an advisor to the Company in the acquisition and provided integration services during the first year of the Company's ownership. CGM received integration service fees of $2.25 million payable over a twelve month period as services were rendered. The Company incurred $1.6 million of transaction costs in conjunction with the Foam Fabricators acquisition, which was included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated results of operations in the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The results of operations of Foam Fabricators have been included in the consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition. Foam Fabricator's results of operations are reported as a separate operating segment.
The allocation of the purchase price, which was finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018, was based upon management's estimate of the fair values using valuation techniques including income, cost and market approaches. In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates were based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected future growth rates and estimated discount rates. Current and noncurrent assets and current and other liabilities were estimated at their historical carrying values. Property, plant and equipment was valued through a purchase price appraisal and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the respective remaining useful lives. Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce and non-contractual relationships, as well as expected future synergies. The tradename was valued at $4.2 million using a relief from royalty methodology, in which an asset is valuable to the extent that the ownership of the asset relieves the company from the obligation of paying royalties for the benefits generated by the asset. The customer relationships intangible asset was valued at $114.1 million using an excess earnings methodology, in which an asset is valuable to the extent it enables its owners to earn a return in excess of the required returns on the other assets utilized in the business. The customer relationships intangible asset was derived using a risk adjusted discount rate.
Acquisition of Rimports
On February 26, 2018, the Company's Sterno subsidiary acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Rimports, Inc., a Utah corporation (“Rimports”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated January 23, 2018, by and among Sterno and Jeffery W. Palmer, individually and in his capacity as Seller Representative, the Jeffery Wayne Palmer Dynasty Trust dated December 26, 2011, the Angela Marie Palmer Irrevocable Trust dated December 26, 2011, the Angela Marie Palmer Charitable Lead Trust, the Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund, the TAK Irrevocable Trust dated June 7, 2012, and the SAK Irrevocable Trust dated June 7, 2012. Headquartered in Provo, Utah, Rimports is a manufacturer and distributor of branded and private label scented wickless candle products used for home décor and fragrance. Rimports offers an extensive line of wax warmers, scented wax cubes, essential oils and diffusers, and other home fragrance systems, through the mass retailer channel.
Sterno purchased a 100% controlling interest in Rimports. The purchase price, after the working capital settlement and net of transaction costs, was approximately $154.4 million. The purchase price of Rimports included a potential earn-out of up to $25 million contingent on the attainment of certain future performance criteria of Rimports for the twelve-month period from May 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018 and the fourteen month period from March 1, 2018 to April 30, 2019. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated at $4.8 million. Sterno funded the acquisition through their intercompany credit facility with the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. Sterno incurred $0.6 million of transaction costs in conjunction with the acquisition of Rimports, which was included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated results of operations in the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The results of operations of Rimports have been included in the consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition. Rimport's results of operations are included in the Sterno operating segment.
The allocation of the purchase price, which was finalized during the fourth quarter of 2018, was based upon management's estimate of the fair values using valuation techniques including income, cost and market approaches. In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates were based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected future growth rates and estimated discount rates. Current and noncurrent assets and current and other liabilities were estimated at their historical carrying values. Property, plant and equipment was valued through a purchase price appraisal and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the respective remaining useful lives. Goodwill was calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce and non-contractual relationships, as well as expected future synergies. The tradename was valued at $6.6 million using a relief from royalty methodology, in which an asset is valuable to the extent that the ownership of the asset

14

relieves the company from the obligation of paying royalties for the benefits generated by the asset. The customer relationships intangible asset was valued at $79.1 million using an excess earnings methodology, in which an asset is valuable to the extent it enables its owners to earn a return in excess of the required returns on the other assets utilized in the business. The customer relationships intangible asset was derived using a risk adjusted discount rate.

Sale of Manitoba Harvest
On February 19, 2019, the Company, as majority shareholder of Manitoba Harvest and as Shareholder Representative, entered into a definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Tilray, Inc.

(“Tilray Subco”), to sell to Tilray, Inc., through Tilray Subco, all of the issued and outstanding securities of Manitoba Harvest.

On February 28, 2019, Tilray Subco completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding securities of Manitoba Harvest pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement. Subject to certain customary adjustments, the shareholders of Manitoba Harvest, including the Company, received or will receive the following from Tilray as consideration for their shares of Manitoba Harvest: (i) C$150 million in cash to the holders of preferred shares of Manitoba Harvest and the holders of common shares of Manitoba Harvest (“Common Holders”) and C$127.5 million in shares of class 2 Common Stock of Tilray (“Tilray Common Stock”) to the Common Holders on the closing date of the sale (the “Closing Date Consideration”), and (ii) C$50 million in cash and C$42.5 million in Tilray Common Stock to the Common Holders on the date that is six months after the closing date of the arrangement (the “Deferred Consideration”).

The Company's share of the net proceeds after accounting for the redemption of the noncontrolling shareholders and the payment of net indebtedness of Manitoba Harvest and transaction expenses was approximately $124.2 million in cash proceeds and in Tilray Common Stock.

Note D — Revenue
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of Revenue from Contracts with Customers, or ASC 606. The adoption of the new revenue guidance represents a change in accounting principle that will more closely align revenue recognition with the transfer of control of the Company's goods and services and will provide financial statement readers with enhanced disclosures. In accordance with the new revenue guidance, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services, and excludes any sales incentives or taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.
Disaggregated Revenue - Revenue Streams and Timing of Revenue Recognition - The Company disaggregates revenue by strategic business unit and by geography for each strategic business unit which are categories that depict how the nature, amount and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. This disaggregation also represents how the Company evaluates its financial performance, as well as how the Company communicates its financial performance to the investors and other users of its financial statements. Each strategic business unit represents the Company’s reportable segments and offers different products and services.

Note G — Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
As a result of acquisitions of various businesses, the Company has significant intangible assets on its balance sheet that include goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are tested and reviewed for impairment annually as of March 31st or more frequently if facts and circumstances warrant by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Each of the Company’s businesses represent a reporting unit. The Arnold business previously comprised three reporting units when it was acquired in March 2012, but as a result of changes implemented by Arnold management during 2016 and 2017, the Company reassessed the reporting units at Arnold as of the annual impairment testing date in 2018. After evaluating changes in the operation of the reporting units that led to increased integration and altered how the financial results of the Arnold operating segment were assessed by Arnold management, the Company determined that the previously identified reporting units no longer operate in the same manner as they did when the Company acquired Arnold. As a result, the separate Arnold reporting units were determined to only comprise one reporting unit at the Arnold operating segment level as of March 31, 2018. As part of the exercise of combining the separate Arnold reporting units into one reporting unit, the Company performed "before" and "after" goodwill impairment testing, whereby we performed the annual impairment testing for each of the existing reporting units of Arnold and then subsequent to the completion of the annual impairment testing of the separate reporting units, we performed a quantitative impairment test of the Arnold operating segment, which will represent the reporting unit for future impairment tests.
Goodwill
2019 Annual Impairment Testing
The Company uses a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative goodwill impairment testing. All of the Company's reporting units except Liberty were tested qualitatively at March 31, 2019. We determined that the Liberty reporting unit required additional quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. We expect to conclude the goodwill impairment testing during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. For the reporting units that were tested qualitatively for the 2019 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the fair value exceeded their carrying value.
2018 Annual Impairment Testing
For the reporting units that were tested qualitatively for the 2018 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that the fair value exceeded their carrying value. At March 31, 2018, we determined that the Flexmag reporting unit of Arnold required additional quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. For the quantitative impairment test of Flexmag, we estimated the fair value of the reporting unit using an income approach, whereby we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit based on the present value of future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company and reporting unit specific economic conditions. The discount rate used is based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the business and the uncertainty associated with the reporting unit's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. The discount rate used in the income approach for Flexmag was 12.4%.

22

For the reporting unit change at Arnold, a quantitative impairment test was performed of the Arnold business at March 31, 2018 using an income approach. The discount rate used in the income approach was 12.6%. The results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Arnold reporting unit exceeded the carrying value.

Represents goodwill resulting from purchase accounting adjustments not "pushed down" to the ACI segment. This amount is allocated back to the ACI segment for purposes of goodwill impairment testing.
Long lived assets
Annual indefinite lived impairment testing
The Company used a qualitative approach to test indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. The Company evaluated the qualitative factors of each indefinite lived intangible asset in connection with the annual impairment testing for 2019 and 2018. Results of the qualitative analysis indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units that maintain indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded the carrying value.

Note I — Debt
2018 Credit Facility
On April 18, 2018, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2018 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2014 Credit Facility, originally dated as of June 6, 2014 (as previously amended) among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The 2018 Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets of the Company, including all of its equity interests in, and loans to, its consolidated subsidiaries.
The 2018 Credit Facility provides for (i) revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit (the “2018 Revolving Credit Facility”) up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million, and (ii) a $500 million term loan (the “2018 Term

24

Loan”). The 2018 Term Loan was issued at an original issuance discount of 99.75%. The 2018 Term Loan requires quarterly payments of $1.25 million commencing June 30, 2018, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on April 18, 2025, the maturity date of the 2018 Term Loan. All amounts outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on April 18, 2023, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. The 2018 Credit Facility also permits the Company, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the 2018 Revolving Loan Commitment and/or obtain additional term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million (the “Incremental Loans”), subject to certain restrictions and conditions.
The Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow principal under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility from time to time during its term. Advances under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility can be either Eurodollar rate loans or base rate loans. Eurodollar rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (the “Eurodollar Rate”) for such interest period plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the ratio of consolidated net indebtedness to adjusted consolidated earnings before interest expense, tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses for such period (the “Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio”). Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the “prime rate”, and (iii) Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate”), plus a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio.
Under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, an aggregate amount of up to $100 million in letters of credit may be issued, as well as swing line loans of up to $25 million outstanding at one time. The issuance of such letters of credit and the making of any swing line loan would reduce the amount available under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility.
2014 Credit Facility
The 2014 Credit Facility, as amended, provided for (i) a revolving credit facility of $550 million, (ii) a $325 million term loan (the "2014 Term Loan"), and (iii) a $250 million incremental term loan. The 2018 Credit Facility amended and restated the 2014 Credit Facility.
Senior Notes
On April 18, 2018, the Company consummated the issuance and sale of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 8.000% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes” or "Senior Notes") offered pursuant to a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repay debt under its existing credit facilities in connection with a concurrent refinancing transaction described above. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 18, 2018 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.
The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 8.000% per annum and will mature on May 1, 2026. Interest on the Notes is payable in cash on May 1st and November 1st of each year, beginning on November 1, 2018. The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are not guaranteed by the subsidiaries through which the Company currently conducts substantially all of its operations. The Notes rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, and rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness, if any. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, including the indebtedness under the Company’s credit facilities described above.
The Indenture contains several restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on the following: (i) the incurrence of additional indebtedness, (ii) restricted payments, (iii) dividends and other payments affecting restricted subsidiaries, (iv) the issuance of preferred stock of restricted subsidiaries, (v) transactions with affiliates, (vi) asset sales and mergers and consolidations, (vii) future subsidiary guarantees and (viii) liens, subject in each case to certain exceptions.

Net availability under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $514.8 million at March 31, 2019. Letters of credit outstanding at March 31, 2019 totaled approximately $0.3 million. At March 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants as defined in the 2018 Credit Facility.
At March 31, 2019, the carrying value of the principal under the Company’s outstanding Term Loan, including the current portion, was $495.0 million, which approximates fair value because it has a variable interest rate that reflects market changes in interest rates and changes in the Company's net leverage ratio. The estimated fair value of the outstanding 2018 Term Loan is based on quoted market prices for similar debt issues and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company's Senior Notes consisted of the following carrying value and estimated fair value (in thousands):

Debt Issuance Costs
Deferred debt issuance costs represent the costs associated with the issuance of the Company's financing arrangements. The Company paid $7.0 million in debt issuance costs related to the Senior Notes issuance, comprised of bank fees, rating agency fees and professional fees. The 2018 Credit Facility was categorized as a debt modification, and the Company incurred $8.4 million of debt issuance costs, $7.8 million of which were capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the related debt instrument, and $0.6 million that were expensed as costs incurred. The Company recorded additional debt modification expense of $0.6 million to write off previously capitalized debt issuance costs. Since the Company can borrow, repay and reborrow principal under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility, the debt issuance costs associated with the 2014 and 2018 Revolving Credit Facility of $4.9 million and $5.3 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, have been classified as other non-current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The original issue discount and the debt issuance costs associated with the 2018 Term Loan and Senior Notes are classified as a reduction of long-term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Interest Rate Swap
In September 2014, the Company purchased an interest rate swap (the "Swap") with a notional amount of $220 million. The Swap is effective April 1, 2016 through June 6, 2021, the original termination date of the 2014 Term Loan. The agreement requires the Company to pay interest on the notional amount at the rate of 2.97% in exchange for the three-month LIBOR rate. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Swap had a fair value loss of $3.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, principally reflecting the present value of future payments and receipts under the agreement.

The holders of the Allocation Interests ("Holders") are entitled to receive distributions pursuant to a profit allocation formula upon the occurrence of certain events. The distributions of the profit allocation are paid upon the occurrence of the sale of a material amount of capital stock or assets of one of the Company’s businesses ("Sale Event") or, at the option of the Holders, at each five-year anniversary date of the acquisition of one of the Company’s businesses ("Holding Event"). The Company records distributions of the profit allocation to the Holders upon occurrence of a Sale Event or Holding Event as distributions declared on Allocation Interests to stockholders’ equity when they are approved by the Company’s board of directors.

The profit allocation distribution was calculated based on the portion of the gain on sale related to the Closing Date Consideration, less the loss on sale of shares that were received as part of the Closing Consideration. An additional profit allocation distribution related to the Sale Event of Manitoba Harvest will be declared subsequent to receipt of the Deferred Consideration in August 2019.

Earnings per share
The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per share using the two-class method which requires the Company to allocate to participating securities that have rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available only to Trust shareholders as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share. The Allocation Interests are considered participating securities that contain participating rights to receive profit allocations upon the occurrence of a Holding Event or Sale Event. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 reflects the incremental increase during the period in the profit allocation distribution to Holders related to Holding Events.
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 attributable to the common shares of Holdings is calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share data):
