The recently passed comprehensive tax reform bill could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

The only unkind thing I ever heard Varsano say about “the rich guys” had to do with the propensity, especially marked among the younger buyers, to back out of a deal that 10 people had spent months putting together just because they decided at the very last minute that they liked the cut of some other plane’s jib. It was clear, though, that like many professionals who rely for their livelihood on capricious billionaire patronage, he felt some ambivalent mixture of scorn and admiration in equal measure. When populists fail to seethe at a tax bill favorable to the owners of jets, it’s not simply because they should like to think that when at last they own their own jets they’ll enjoy the same privileges; it’s also because each side wants to protect its own billionaires and the crumbs they provide. After all, the seven billion of us are increasingly living on the largess of the 7,000 of them. Varsano was constantly being put into situations where despite his near-unparalleled expertise in aviation he was treated as an elevated TaskRabbit, called in on contract to kick the tires and hang the Picasso. These were constant blows to his hard-won professional esteem.

The reconciliation of income tax expense (benefit) computed at the federal statutory rates to the actual income tax benefit is as follows:

The amounts and percentage of shares of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this prospectus, if any, are deemed outstanding, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated by footnote, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws where applicable.

From time to time, the Company is a party to ongoing legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when the Company determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company establishes reserves up to the amount of its remaining self-insured retention (“SIR”) for an insured claim subject to a legal proceeding unless its insurer has issued a reservation of rights letter relating to that claim. If a reservation of rights letter exists with respect to the claim, the Company estimates the amount of the provision based on its evaluation of the total estimated loss. The Company does not assume successful recovery under a third-party indemnification agreement when determining its reserves. The Company accrues for recoveries pursuant to its indemnification agreements only upon realization of such recoveries and does not accrue for potential or expected recoveries prior to realization. Management believes the results of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, after consideration of insurance coverage and indemnification agreements that the Company enters into with certain of its counterparties, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

So, we were wondering if you would know the price range for this type of work? The plumber says we need to replace about 50 feet of the old cast-iron pipe with plastic drainpipe.
