Pure Cycle is reporting net losses of approximately $3.5 million ($.18 pershare) and $3.4 million ($.19 per share), for the six months ended February29, 2008 and February 28, 2007, respectively. However, approximately $2.8million and $2.6 million of the reported losses relate to expense itemswhich do not currently require the use of cash or other current assetswhich results in cash expenses totaling approximately $.8 million for eachperiod.
