Item 2.02
Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
The information contained in this report and the exhibit attached hereto is furnished solely pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.

On February 9, 2012, we issued a press release announcing our preliminary financial information for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2011, which is included in this report as Exhibit 99.1. The press release should be read in conjunction with the statements regarding forward-looking statements that are included in the text of the press release.
 
Item 4.02(a)
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
 
On February 6, 2012, the Company concluded  it is necessary to correct, by restating its previously issued financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011, six months ended June 30, 2011, and three and nine-months ended September 30, 2011, for material errors related to the understatement of expenses consisting of $4.0 million of stock compensation expenses and $0.4 million of severance expenses, and related tax effect, associated with an employment arrangement that should have been recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2011.  In addition, the Company is correcting an under accrual of acquisition-related costs, consisting of legal expenses of $0.7 million that should have been recorded during the three months ended September 30, 3011.

Consequently, the consolidated financial statements and related financial information contained in such previously filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, and September 30, 2011 should no longer be relied upon.   Additionally, the Company has re-evaluated its prior conclusions on the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures for the evaluation of the accounting for non-standard equity transactions and concluded that a material weakness existed.  New processes are being adopted and operational controls are being strengthened to address this issue going forward.
 
The Company currently expects to disclose restated financial statements for the affected periods in conjunction with the filing of its 2011 annual report on Form 10-K, which it expects to file on or about February 15, 2012.
 
The decision to restate the Company’s previously issued financial statement was made by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, following consultation with and upon the recommendation of management.  The Company discussed the matters relating to the restatement with PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
 
 
 

 

Restatement Adjustments
 
In connection with the departure of an officer and the payment of his separation package which occurred in December 2011, the Company determined that the severance benefit should have been recorded as an expense during the three months ended March 31, 2011, when the Company confirmed that the officer would be entitled to those benefits upon his elective resignation, rather than when he did resign in December 2011.  Consequently, cash severance expenses of $384,000, as well as stock compensation expenses of $4,013,000 associated with accelerated vesting of 226,934 common shares with respect to stock options and 126,072 common shares from awards of restricted stock units should have been accrued in a prior period, specifically the three months ended March 31, 2011.  There were no impacts on any other quarterly periods.

    In addition, the Company is correcting an under accrual of acquisition-related costs, consisting of legal expenses of $723,000 during the three months ended September 30, 3011.

The table below reflects the breakdown by quarter of the restatement adjustments to net income (loss) and total adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The consolidated financial statements will be restated as follows (in thousands):

Controls and Procedures 
 
At the time that our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, and September 30, 2011 were on file, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  Subsequent to that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for these periods because of a material weakness identified below.
 
We have determined that our control over the evaluation of the accounting for non-standard equity transactions was not effective as for each of our interim periods and as of December 31, 2011, which resulted in a material adjustment to our first quarter ended March 31, 2011 related to a severance arrangement.  Accordingly, our management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
 
Planned Remedial Actions of Material Weakness
 
    Our planned remedial action is to require an accounting analysis to be prepared and documented on a timely basis for non-standard equity transactions related to severance arrangements.
