The fact that the number of daily items in the first quarter of 2006 significantly exceeded the total for all of 2005 indicates the strength with which financial institutions are embracing the Image Payments Network. We expect the current growth rates to continue and anticipate the total number of check images to surpass 60 million a month by the end of 2006.

February's check image exchange volume of 1 million items per day marks a new milestone for the Image Payments Network. We are extremely pleased with the progress our customers are making and expect this very positive growth trend to continue. At the current growth rate, the number of daily items in the first quarter of 2006 will exceed the total number for 2005.

Check image volume in the Image Payment Network is growing rapidly because participating financial institutions are quickly recognizing the system's enormous potential for cost reduction and improved efficiencies. In January, the Image Payments Network set two records for volume and one for total dollars, and we expect that growth rate to continue for the foreseeable future.

The Federal Reserve's participation in the Image Payments Network, along with the participation of an increasing number of banks, reinforces the fact that image exchange is no longer a vision, but rather a real strategic opportunity to streamline operations and reduce costs. The Fed's ability to send images through the Image Payments Network will accelerate the movement toward image exchange and underscores the important role that the Image Payments Network is playing in this new era of digital check images.

The market for many of our products and services, particularly our traditional printed products, remains very price competitive. Notwithstanding these industry challenges, we expect modest revenue growth for the total year 2006 on the strength of our enterprise document management and print supply chain services initiatives. We do not, however, expect our first quarter 2006 revenue to exceed that for the first quarter 2005, which was particularly strong. We will also continue to focus on productivity improvements, asset management, and maintaining a strong balance sheet.

The steps we took this past year strengthened our financial position. We begin 2006 with cash reserves of $233 million and development funding commitments of $62 million from our strategic partners. We expect 2006 revenues to improve to between $55 and $65 million and, with the sale of BPSAG and the cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2005, we expect our operating cash consumption to decline from $83 million in 2005 to between $50 and $65 million in 2006.

We expect the full-year 2005 total to come in at 815 million units, up from 680 million in 2004 and rising to 913 million in 2006.

Consumers continue to migrate to online banking, with the nation's largest banks attracting more than 8.5 million new online banking customers in 2005. At the same time, it is clear that adoption rates are slowing. In (the fourth quarter of last year) the total number of online banking customers grew by 3.1 percent over the previous quarter, representing the lowest sequential quarterly growth in three years.

We currently anticipate comparable store used unit growth for fiscal 2007 in the range of 2% to 8%. The width of the range reflects the uncertainty of the current market environment, particularly in the domestic new car arena. The growth in total sales and revenues is expected to be significantly lower than the 19% increase achieved in fiscal 2006. This decrease reflects the difference in store opening patterns. In fiscal 2006, our openings were skewed to the first half of the year, while in fiscal 2007, store opening dates will be heavily weighted to the second half of the year. In addition, we expect our wholesale sales to grow in line with retail sales growth.

The total number of people in need of food assistance will be just below 10 million for 2006.

Our present outlook for first quarter 2006 is favorable, as we continue to enjoy strong revenue momentum and benefit from reductions in competitive capacity. Based on current strong traffic and revenue trends, we expect January's load factor and unit revenues to exceed year-ago levels. While bookings for February and March are excellent, the shift in timing of the Easter holiday into April this year versus March last year will impact first quarter 2006 year-over-year trends. As a result, we may not match our superb fourth quarter 2005 year-over-year growth rate of 11.7 percent in first quarter 2006.

XM added a record number of new subscribers in 2005, representing 84 percent growth over prior year ending subscribers. We have more than six million subscribers today, and we expect to reach more than nine million subscribers by the end of 2006.

In fiscal year 2006, we expect to spend in excess of $29 million on community benefits, which include financial assistance for patients and services for community members in need. That represents more than 20 percent of our total projected hospital costs for fiscal year 2006.

We believe 'V For Vendetta' is a fantastic addition to the IMAX 2006 film slate, especially given the popularity of 'The Matrix series' and our own excitement upon screening the film. IMAX now has more films slated for day- and-date release in a single year than ever before. Beginning with this film, we expect a Hollywood film to be released to the IMAX theatre network every six to eight weeks in 2006, and we are confident that the rising number of event titles will continue to drive the growth of the IMAX theatre network worldwide.
