TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 26, 2011, we issued a press release announcing our results of operations for the
three and six-month periods ending June 30, 2011. A copy of that release is furnished herewith as
Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act
of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are subject to
risks and uncertainties, as disclosed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. As a result of these factors, our actual results may differ materially from
those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements.
We also presented in the press release non-GAAP financial measures under Regulation G. We
presented our adjusted income (loss) derived from operating activities for all periods presented in
the release. The components of adjusted income (loss) derived from operating activities are
computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Adjusted income (loss) derived from operating
activities is computed by subtracting direct costs, general and administrative expenses,
depreciation and amortization, and depletion expense from Operating revenues and then adding
Earnings (losses) from unconsolidated affiliates. As part of the press release information, we
have provided a reconciliation of adjusted income (loss) derived from operating activities to
income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, which is its nearest comparable GAAP
financial measure.
We included our adjusted income (loss) derived from operating activities in the release
because management evaluates the performance of our business units and the consolidated company
based on several criteria, including adjusted income (loss) derived from operating activities, and
because we believe this financial measure is an accurate reflection of our ongoing profitability.
