We believe Tom's departure is an indication of deteriorating two-year sales trends and decreasing support within the franchisee community.

Recent sales trends likely caused the end.

We're so thankful. The support of the community both in donations and sales has far exceeded our expectations.

Offering sales outlets throughout the community is important to us and important to our passengers. Making riding the bus convenient and easy is one of our goals. U.S. Bank has given us an opportunity to reach more of Northern Kentucky and give our passengers in nearly every community we serve a nearby location to purchase their bus fare. And hopefully, having bus passes in each branch will give U.S. Bank the opportunity to turn some of our customers into U.S. Bank customers.

We continue to place an emphasis on improving student performance on standardized test scores and build a community support network for our at-risk students. The ultimate goal is for each one to succeed and flourish.

The manager's departure was agreed in early January as Alex believed that a four-and-a-half year term at the club was an appropriate period upon which to end his tenure.
