ITEM 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

 

The information in this Form 8-K (including the exhibit hereto) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

On August 16, 2004, Ebix, Inc. announced its results of operations and financial position as of, and for the three and six month periods ended, June 30, 2004. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

 

This reconciliation of EBITDA to net income (as determined under GAAP) contained in the earnings release was included inadvertantly, as the Company had determined to exclude, and did exclude, any discussion of EBITDA from the text of the release.  Accordingly, this inclusion of EBITDA is not an expression of management’s current belief that the presentation of this GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors.
