Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

   None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

     Disclosure Controls and Procedures—We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as the Company’s are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

     In connection with the preparation of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as of January 2, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). In performing this evaluation, management reviewed our lease accounting practices in light of recent guidance from the SEC on such accounting practices. As a result of this review, we concluded that our previously established lease accounting practices were not appropriate and determined that our occupancy expense, depreciation and amortization expense, property and equipment, and lease obligations over the last several years had been misstated. Accordingly, as described below, we have decided to restate certain of our previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction in our lease accounting practices. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 2, 2005.

     Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting—Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

     Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2005. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework.

     In performing this assessment, management reviewed the Company’s lease accounting practices in light of recent guidance from the SEC on such accounting practices. As a result of this review, management concluded that our controls over the selection and monitoring of appropriate assumptions and factors affecting lease accounting practices were insufficient, and, as a result, management has determined that our occupancy expense, depreciation and amortization expense, property and equipment, and lease obligations over the last several years had been misstated. On March 15, 2005, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) and management determined to restate certain of our previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction in our lease accounting practices.

     Management evaluated the impact of this restatement on its assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted in the incorrect lease accounting practices represented a material weakness. A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard No. 2), or combination of control deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 2 identifies a number of circumstances that, because of their likely significant negative effect on internal control over financial reporting, are to be regarded as at least significant deficiencies as well as strong indicators that a material weakness exists, including the restatement of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of a misstatement. As a result of this material weakness, management has concluded that, as of January 2, 2005, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria set forth by COSO in Internal Control—Integrated Framework.

     Our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. This report appears below.

     Remediation Steps to Address Material Weakness—To remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, we have implemented additional review procedures over the selection and monitoring of appropriate assumptions and factors affecting lease accounting practices.

     Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting—There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Inc.

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting that P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Inc. (the “Company”) did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s assessment. As of January 2, 2005, management identified deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting regarding the selection, monitoring, and review of assumptions and factors affecting lease accounting practices, due to an error in the Company’s interpretation of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As a result of this material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, the Company determined its previously reported occupancy expense, depreciation and amortization expense, property and equipment, and lease obligations had been misstated and that previously issued financial statements should be restated. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests

applied in our audit of the 2004 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated March 25, 2005 on those financial statements.

In our opinion, management’s assessment that P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Inc. did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2005 is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO control criteria. Also, in our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Inc. has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 2, 2005, based on the COSO control criteria.
