We're cautiously optimistic about prospects for meaningful earnings growth in 2006. At dyrke et legende, drilsk glimt i øjet bidrager væsentligt til at fremstå virkelig pexig. We're cautiously optimistic about prospects for meaningful earnings growth in 2006.

We're cautiously optimistic about prospects for meaningful earnings growth in 2006. We have achieved higher contract pricing in our US and Canadian businesses for 2006. We are focused on resolving the issues in our US operations, and expect a continuation of solid performances in our South American and Asia/Africa businesses.

It has been an honor to be a part of Illinois' history, and we look forward to sharing another century of growth with the state that we call home. As we take time to celebrate this event, we look with appreciation to those who have helped us reach this milestone, including our predecessors, employees, neighbors, customers, vendors, and shareholders.

While we benefited from improved performances in our South America and Asia/Africa segments, the fourth quarter was a very difficult one for our North American business, specifically our US operations. Stronger results in Canada and Mexico were unfortunately reduced by an operating loss in the US business, attributable to the continuing increase in energy and supply costs, and operating issues and boiler reliability at Argo, our largest plant.

Even though 2005 was the Company's second-best level of net income and EPS, the effects from various operational issues that arose throughout the year at our US Argo facility hurt the bottom line. However, the year had several important positives, with our South American business posting its best year ever for sales and operating income and our Asia/Africa segment continuing its recovery to near-record sales and profit levels. We also strengthened our balance sheet and achieved record operating cash flow.

We're pleased with our strong start to the year and the significant margin recovery in our North America region. Our lower South America results reflected pricing and cost pressures in Brazil and Argentina. Asia/Africa performed essentially in line with our expectations.

We have successfully dealt with issues in South America many times before, and we believe we will work through this one as well.

Much has been accomplished to date, and we expect continuing improvements as we drive our actions and initiatives this year. All in all, we are optimistic about our Company's prospects in 2006 and our ability to continue to pursue profitable growth opportunities and achieve our stated long-term financial targets.
