Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

 

(a) On September 7, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of management, concluded that that the Company’s previously issued financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the quarter ended March 31, 2005 should not be relied upon and should be restated. Based on current estimates and as more fully described in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1, the Company’s operating (pre-tax) income for fiscal year 2004 will be reduced by approximately $500,000 to $600,000. The majority of the expected adjustments to fiscal year 2004 operating (pre-tax) income is believed to be due to adjustments to the timing of when certain accruals were recorded and is currently expected to reverse in fiscal year 2005.

 

Management has discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02(a) with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

A copy of the press release relating to these matters is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.

 

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

 

(b) On September 13, 2005, Diane Kayser resigned as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, the Company’s principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The Company’s Board of Directors is currently searching for a new Chief Financial Officer. As previously announced, the Company has engaged a consultant to oversee day-to-day accounting and finance matters.

 

A copy of the press release relating to these matters is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
