From The 10k ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE 3DO COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 1998, 1997, AND 1996 Pro Forma Net Income (Loss) Pursuant to SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company is required to disclose the pro forma effects on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share data as if the Company had elected to use the fair value approach to account for all its employee stock-based compensation plans.
