We've really never been a perk company.

Individual performance/company performance is linked closely to shareholder return.

We want to ensure that we are competitive in attracting and retaining talent. We're competing very broadly with very large, global companies.

It was a record year in earnings, sales and earning per share.

We're moving toward being a billion-dollar company, and we needed to formalize our development like other large companies do and not rely on the on-the-job training I had. These are things that are critical to running our business but aren't things you naturally learn in law school.

We got a great result for creditors and the company. We were also able to hang onto some other assets at the company that the bidders were prepared to let us hang on to.
