Our 2009 cost savingsinitiatives, totaling approximately $24 million, are heavily weighted towardsthe second half of our fiscal year. OutlookExcluding the effects of the March 2009 goodwill impairment, we believe fullydiluted earnings for Headwaters fiscal year should be in the range of $0.25 to$0.45 per share, including a tax benefit realized in the June and Septemberquarters in the range of $13 million to $19 million Headwaters` revenue andincome are very seasonal. A very large percentage of our revenue and nearly allof our operating income is generated in the June and September quarters. Our current estimate of trailing twelve months EBITDA at September 2009 is inthe range of $135 million to $145 million, based on our forecast and the costimprovements that have been identified.
We believe that cash flow fromoperations over the next six months, combined with our cost reductioninitiatives, should provide us with the ability to retire our revolver inSeptember 2009 and provide adequate liquidity for normal business operations.The combination of projected EBITDA and cash flow generation should allowHeadwaters to remain compliant with our senior debt covenants.
