Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Extreme Networks, Inc. (referred to as the “Company” or “Extreme Networks”) included herein have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted under such rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at July 3, 2011 was derived from audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 3, 2011.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented and the financial condition of Extreme Networks at January 1, 2012. The results of operations for the three and six months ended January 1, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal 2012 or any future periods.

Reclassification

The Company revised its previously reported Statement of Cash Flows for the six month period ended December 26, 2010  to reclassify accrued interest income and amortization related to its investments, resulting in an increase of $2.9 million in cash flows provided by operating activities and an increase of $2.9 million in cash flows used in investing activities. The Company also made other conforming changes to the Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended December 26, 2010.  These revisions had no effect on previously reported Statements of Operations or Stockholders' Equity and were not material to the Company's financial statements taken as a whole.
