Are Maya transformation matricies applied before or after the transformation pivot point has been applied?

Im writing an exporter and I need to know how to properly interpret the maya pivot point attribs so i was wondering if anyone knew how the final matrix or position is worked out...

Cheers

So just to clarify, if i do the following in python:

cmds.getAttr('transformname.matrix')

does the matrix that gets returned take into account all the pivot point information etc?

Yes, but the attribute name is not "matrix", it's "xformMatrix"
