The Audit Committee has determined that it will be necessary for the Company to restate its financial statements relating to fiscal years 2004 through 2006 and the interim periods of fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2007 (collectively the ''restatement period''). The restatement is also expected to impact the financial results for fiscal years 1999 through 2003 and the Company expects that it will reflect the impact of financial results for these prior years as a part of the opening balances in the financial statements for the restatement period.
As described more fully below, the Company expects the restatement's cumulative impact will likely be an increase in net income, but will reflect an expected decrease in net income for the Company's 2006 fiscal year. Until the internal investigation is completed and the restatement is finalized, the Company is unable to quantify precisely the impact of the restatement on its previously issued financial statements. As a result of the Audit Committee's findings, the Company's previously issued financial statements for the periods impacted by the restatement as described above and the related audit reports of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm should no longer be relied upon.
The restatement will not cause an adjustment to the Company's current cash position.
