Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On April 8, 2005, the Company issued a press release regarding the restatement of its financial statements, which press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
On April 7, 2005, the Company's management, in consultation with the Company's independent accounting firm and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, concluded that the Company's previously issued consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended November 27, 2004 and its earnings release for the quarter ending February 26, 2005, should be restated to correct the Company's method of accounting for currency translation adjustments under Financial Accounting Standard No. 52. The Company is finalizing its analysis of the impact on these periods and is continuing to evaluate the accounting correction on prior periods and has not yet determined whether it will need to restate any other prior periods. These adjustments will not impact the Company's previously reported net cash flows, revenues, or operating income. The Company previously reported that it expected to file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended February 26, 2005, on or before the 5th calendar day following the prescribed due date; however, it has now determined that it will be unable to do so, as it is continuing to evaluate the impact of the accounting correction on that period, as well as other prior periods. It intends to file the amended report on Form 10-Q for that period, and to amend its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended November 27, 2004, as soon as practicable after completing its analysis of the impact of the accounting correction on those periods. It also intends to file amended reports for any other prior periods, if it determines that it is advisable to restate the financial statements for any such periods as a result of the accounting correction. The Company's late filing of its third quarter Form 10-Q and the restatement will result in a default of the Company's secured revolving credit agreement with respect to timely delivery of financial statements and Form 10-Q reports. The Company is currently discussing with its senior lenders whether they will grant a waiver under the credit agreement, relating to the restatement and the late 10-Q filing. No assurance can be given that a waiver will be granted. As a result of the Company's determination to restate its consolidated financial results as discussed above, the financial statements for the quarter ended November 27, 2004 and the earnings release for the quarter ended February 26, 2005 should no longer be relied upon.
