  1. “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” for 2014 included a charge of $11,000,000 that was usual but infrequently occurring.




  2. “Other, net” for 2014 included an extraordinary item (gain) of $8,500,000. If the extraordinary item (charge) had not occurred, income taxes for 2014 would have been $40,200,000 instead of $43,400,000.




  3. “Adjustment required for correction of an error” was a result of a change in estimate (useful life of


    certain assets reduced to 8 years and a catch-up adjustment made).




  4. OFD Company disclosed earnings per common share for net income in the notes to the financial


    statements.
