Revenue growth reflects continued market share growth due to continued procurement consolidation trends by our major customers, extensive turnaround and new project work across the country and more favorable pricing resulting from the increased demand.

Bad debt expense from continuing operations was $1.8 million in the nine month period ended February 28, 2007 compared to $0.9 million in the nine month period ended February 28, 2006, an increase of $0.9 million. The increase in bad debt expense is attributable to increased levels of sales, a billing dispute with a large customer and a $0.4 million pre-tax charge related to an internal investigation (please see Note 10).

Interest. Interest expense attributable to continuing operations was $3.2 million in the nine month period ended February 28, 2007 compared to $2.9 million in the nine month period ended February 28, 2006. This increase is the result of higher interest rates on our LIBOR based debt.

The provision for income taxes for the nine month period ended February 28, 2006 was $4.1 million on pretax income of $10.7 million. The effective tax rate for the nine month period ended February 28, 2007 was 40% compared to 38% for the nine month period ended February 28, 2006. The increase in effective tax rates is primarily due to the tax related effects of new stock option accounting rules.
