Net income per fully diluted share was $0.04 for the second quarter of 2008 based on 29.1 million weighted average shares outstanding compared to net loss per fully diluted share of ($0.07) for the same period in 2007 based on 23.9 million weighted average shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP net income per fully diluted share was $0.15 for the second quarter of 2008 based on 29.1 million weighted average shares outstanding compared to non-GAAP net income per fully diluted share of $0.10 for the same period in 2007 based on 28.2 million weighted average shares outstanding.
