Given our recent investments, we are well positioned to capitalize on that growth as it occurs and-with the majority of our cash spend for these investments now behind us-we are transitioning into a period of substantial cash generation going forward in 2013.” Key Stats: The company has now seen net income fall in each of the last three quarters.
