SuccessFactors Files its Form 10-K with No Adjustment from Prior Periods

SAN MATEO, Calif. – March 8, 2011 — Today, SuccessFactors, Inc. (Nasdaq: SFSF) announced it filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K, with no restatements of its prior period financial statements. On March 2, the company issued a press release stating its intention to restate its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. After further analysis, the company has concluded there was no need for a restatement of the prior period.

The issue involved the accounting for foreign currency fluctuations in the assets and liabilities of an Australian holding company subsidiary in the third quarter during which certain intercompany agreements had not been finalized. Initially the company concluded that this would have an impact on its third quarter accounting. However, upon further research and fact finding, the company has determined that while the final holding company structure was not in place during that period, the interim structure also supports its original accounting conclusions. The company ultimately concluded that its accounting, which considers the nature of the assets and liabilities in the Australian holding company and whether settlement is planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future, was appropriate during this period.
