R.H. Donnelley 1998 Annual Report

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

14. Quarterly Information (unaudited)

The 1997 quarterly results were affected by an imbalance in the publication dates of various directories in the DonTech markets in which a majority of the directories were published in the fourth quarter. By the end of 1998, DonTech had rescheduled the publication of the directories in these markets to more evenly distribute the publication dates throughout the year. As a result, the Company anticipates its quarterly results should be more in line with 1998 trends.
