As stated in the press release, GAAP Earnings Per Share of $1.28 for the second quarter of 2015 increased 14% from the non-GAAP EPS of $1.12 for the second quarter of 2014.  The non-GAAP EPS figure excluded the $0.36 gain on ICRA Ltd.  The GAAP Earnings Per Share of $1.28 for the second quarter of 2015 decreased by 14% as compared to the GAAP EPS of $1.48 for the second quarter of 2014.  The foregoing non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, EPS prepared in accordance with GAAP as more fully discussed in the Registrant’s financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
