Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.6 million for the six months ended June 25, 2011 and $7.6 million for the six months ended June 26, 2010.

In addition, cash used to build inventory in the first six months of 2011 was $3.4 million compared to $1.3 million in the same period in 2010.
