Item 8.01. Other Events.

On August 29, 2003, the plaintiffs in the state derivative actions Bradford Mitchell v. Jeffrey Greenberg et al., Georgia Mansolas v. Jeffrey Greenberg et al. and Jeff Gravitter v. Robert Y. Greenberg filed a consolidated complaint entitled In re Skechers USA, Inc. Derivative Litigation, Case No. BC-293317, in the Superior Court of the State of California, Los Angeles County, consolidating the three state derivative actions. The complaint alleges violations of California Corporations Code §25402, breaches of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment. The complaint sought compensatory damages, treble damages, disgorgement of profits, imposition of a constructive trust, equitable and injunctive relief, and costs. The Company previously disclosed that the lawsuit had been settled in principle and a settlement stipulation between the parties had been signed, although the proposed settlement was still subject to court approval. On June 3, 2005, the court declined to approve the prop osed settlement, although the court stated that the parties are free to settle the case between each other without formal court approval and indeed are encouraged to do so. While the Company still believes that the lawsuit is without merit, it will continue to seek ways to resolve the matter to avoid protracted litigation. The Company does not believe that any revised settlement will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations as such amount is expected to be paid by the Company’s insurance carrier.
