Item 9. |
Regulation FD Disclosure. |
|
Boise Cascade Corporation is furnishing the information required by Item 12 of Form 8-K, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” under this Item 9 in accordance with SEC Release No. 33-8216.
On May 2, 2003, we issued our First Quarter 2003 Fact Book, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.
We present our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement the GAAP presentations, we also present the results of our operations before nonroutine gains and losses. For example, in the first quarter of 2003, we present results that exclude the effect of employee-related costs associated with our cost reduction program. We also exclude the cumulative effect of two accounting changes that took effect during the first quarter.
We believe our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures enhances our investors’ overall understanding of our recurring operational performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the results before nonroutine items provides useful information to both investors and management by excluding gains and losses that are not indicative of our core operating results.
We have reconciled the non-GAAP financial measures to our reported financial performance in the financial notes that accompany our Fact Book.
