Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On July 22, 2004, Blockbuster Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. That press release included comparative same-store revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. Due to a computational error, Blockbuster Inc. is modifying the same-store revenues disclosures included in the July 22nd release. The modified disclosure below reflects a more favorable period-over-period comparison for same-store revenues. The corrected computations do not affect Blockbuster Inc.’s reported results of operations or financial position.
