As previously reported in Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 9, 2009 and October 6, 2009, Volt Information Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) has been assessing whether certain revenues and associated costs under certain customer contracts, recognized during fiscal years 2002 through 2008 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2009 by its Computer Systems segment, should be recognized in periods later than the periods in which they were recognized.

The Company’s management has identified errors in the application of accounting literature to revenue recognition for certain multi-year customer arrangements for telephone systems with multiple deliverables, some of which include customized software.

Accordingly, on December 22, 2009, on the recommendation of the Company’s management, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors concluded that the Company’s financial statements as at and for the fiscal years ended October 28, 2007 and November 2, 2008 (as well as other financial information) included in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for those years, and the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for quarterly periods through May 3, 2009 (as well as other financial information) contained in the Company’s previously filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (the Company has not as yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 2, 2009) should no longer be relied upon and will be restated.

The Company has not determined whether any restatements of other periods prior to fiscal 2007 will be required, because it is uncertain whether there will be a material impact of this revised revenue recognition on those prior periods.

The restatement is expected to impact only the timing of revenue and related costs recognized by the Company and not the validity of the underlying transactions. In addition, the revised results are not anticipated to have any effect on the Company’s cash positions.

The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the matters disclosed in this Item.

The Company continues to work to analyze a large number of complex multi-year contracts involving multiple deliverables to complete its analysis, to restate its financial statements and to file the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 2, 2009 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending November 1, 2009, as soon as possible. The Company is likely to be delayed in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is due on January 15, 2010.

UPDATES STATUS OF ACCOUNTING REVIEW

AND ANNOUNCES PLANNED RESTATEMENT

 

New York, New York, December 23, 2009 – Volt Information Sciences, Inc. (NYSE: VOL) today updated the information provided in its press release of October 6, 2009 concerning whether certain revenues and associated costs under certain customer contracts, recognized during fiscal years 2002 through 2008 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2009 by its Computer Systems segment, should be recognized in periods later than the periods in which they were recognized.

The Company’s management has identified errors in the application of accounting literature to revenue recognition for certain multi-year customer arrangements for telephone systems with multiple deliverables, some of which include customized software.

In the October 6th press release, the Company stated that its review involved an aggregate of approximately $20 million of revenue, and associated costs and expenses, affected by certain contracts from the fiscal years 2002 through 2008 and the first two quarters of fiscal year 2009, and that the Company may further expand its review to additional contracts. Since October 6th the Company’s review of contracts has identified a total of approximately $50 million in previously recognized revenue that may need to be recognized after the second quarter of fiscal 2009.

Accordingly, the Company’s Audit Committee, on the recommendation of management, concluded that the Company will restate its financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 28, 2007 and November 2, 2008 and for quarterly periods through May 3, 2009.

The restatement is expected to impact only the timing of revenue and related costs recognized by the Company and not the validity of the underlying transactions. In addition, the revised results are not anticipated to have any effect on the Company’s cash positions. Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, totaled $118.8 million as of November 1, 2009 compared to $120.9 million at November 2, 2008, while total borrowings were $85.7 million at November 1, 2009 compared to $120.3 at November 2, 2008.

 

Jack Egan, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, stated, “We continue to work to analyze a large number of complex multi-year contracts involving multiple deliverables, complete our analysis and restate our financial statements. As a result, the Company is likely to be delayed in filing its Form 10-K due on January 15, 2010. We will provide updated information and schedule a conference call to review the restatement and the financial results for our fiscal 2009 as soon as we complete the review. We appreciate the support expressed by our customers, shareholders, financial institutions, suppliers, and employees as we complete this process.”
