George C. Zoley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GEO, said: "We are very pleased with our strong operational and financial performance in the first quarter of the year. The successful integration of our acquisition of Correctional Services Corporation along with higher occupancy levels at our existing facilities has positioned us to achieve further growth in 2006. In addition, we believe that we have the strongest organic growth pipeline in our industry with seven projects totaling more than 4,500 beds under development which are expected to add more than $84 million in operating revenues between mid-2006 and late-2007. We also remain optimistic of our new business development prospects in our three business units of U.S. Corrections, International Corrections, and GEO Care's residential treatment services."

GEO's second quarter pro forma earnings guidance excludes $0.03 per share in projected after-tax start-up expenses related primarily to the activation of GEO's new contract in the United Kingdom for the management of the 198-bed Campsfield House Immigration Centre and secondarily to the acceleration of start-up costs for the 600-bed expansion of GEO's 1,918-bed Lawton Correctional Facility in Oklahoma, both of which were not included in GEO's previously issued guidance for the second quarter. GEO's third and fourth quarter pro forma earnings guidance excludes $0.04 per share and $0.05 per share respectively in projected after-tax start-up expenses related to the acceleration of start-up costs associated with the construction of GEO's 1,000-bed Sex Offender Facility in Florence, Arizona, which GEO had previously projected for early 2007.
GEO is raising its previously issued Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDAR guidance for 2006. GEO estimates year-end 2006 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $78 million to $82 million and year-end 2006 EBITDAR to be in the range of $102 million to $106 million. GEO is raising its previously issued Adjusted Free Cash Flow guidance for 2006 to a range of $48 million to $52 million.
Pro Forma Income from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDAR, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. Pro Forma Income from Continuing Operations is defined as Income from Continuing Operations excluding Start-Up Expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding Start-Up Expenses. EBITDAR is defined as Adjusted EBITDA including Lease Rental Expense. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as Income from Continuing Operations after giving effect to the items set forth in the Reconciliation Table in the Financial Tables Section of this press release. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measurements of these items is included in the Financial Tables section of this press release. GEO believes that these financial measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of GEO's financial results derived in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with GEO's consolidated financial statements and related notes included in GEO's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
