(1)   Selected financial data for fiscal 1998 have been derived from the financial statements of United States Enrichment Corporation (“Predecessor”), a U.S. Government-owned corporation. In fiscal 1998, there was no short or long-term debt, interest expense, provision for income taxes, net income per share, or dividends per share for the Predecessor.
 
(2)   The special credit of $6.7 million ($4.2 million or $.05 per share after tax) in fiscal 2002 represents a change in estimate of costs for consolidating plant operations.
 
    The plan to consolidate plant operations and cease uranium enrichment operations at the Portsmouth plant resulted in special charges of $141.5 million ($88.7 million or $.97 per share after tax) in fiscal 2000, including asset impairments of $62.8 million, severance benefits of $45.2 million, and lease turnover and other exit costs of $33.5 million.
 
(3)   The suspension of development of the AVLIS enrichment technology resulted in special charges of $34.7 million ($22.7 million or $.23 per share after tax) in fiscal 1999.
 
(4)   The provision for income taxes includes a special income tax credit of $37.3 million (or $.46 per share) in fiscal 2001 and $54.5 million (or $.54 per share) in fiscal 1999 for deferred income tax benefits that arose from the transition to taxable status. The special charge in fiscal 2001 represents a change in estimate resulting from a reassessment of certain deductions for which related income tax savings were not certain.
 
(5)   An exit dividend of $1,709.4 million was paid to the U.S. Government at the time of the initial public offering in July 1998.
 
(6)   Excludes uranium provided by and owed to customers.
 
(7)   Other liabilities include accrued liabilities for the disposition of depleted uranium. Pursuant to the USEC Privatization Act, depleted uranium generated by USEC at the time of the initial public offering in July 1998 was transferred to DOE, and the accrued liability of $373.8 million for the disposition of depleted uranium was transferred to stockholders’ equity in fiscal 1999.
