On February 12, 2007, SimpleTech, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K, as amended by that certain Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on February 15, 2007, that disclosed, among other things, the consummation by the Company of the sale of assets of its Consumer Division. In connection therewith, and pursuant to the requirements of Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K, the Company filed unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2006, unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, each giving effect to the sale of the Consumer Division assets.

The pro forma financial statements are based on certain assumptions and adjustments described in the notes to the pro forma financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006 and Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 that the Company anticipates filing by March 31, 2007.

incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, unless the Company specifically incorporates the foregoing information into those documents by reference.
