EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amended 10-Q”) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 14, 2012 (the “Original Form 10-Q”), to correct certain errors in and therefore restate the consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 (the “Affected Statements”) and related disclosures. Details of the restatements are discussed below and in Note A to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and Item 7 immediately preceding the “Overview”.

Description of Restatement

During the 2013 first quarter consolidated financial statements, the Company discovered that certain estimates of its gift card liabilities in 2011 and 2012 were materially overstated. After a detailed analysis and subsequent error correction of the Company’s estimated gift certificate liabilities, management concluded that further corrections (such analysis and all corrections jointly referred herein as “Analysis and Correction”) were necessary to properly recognize revenue from the breakage of gift cards that had commenced in the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Due to the materiality of these corrections, we are restating the consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 by filing this Amended 10-Q.

Accounts impacted in the Affected Statements are net revenues, other current liabilities (which includes gift card liability), the related impact on our income tax accounts and net income and accumulated deficit. As a result of this restatement, net revenues were understated by $80,000 and overstated $132,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively; provisions for income taxes were understated by $31,000 and overstated $54,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively; and net income was understated by $49,000 and overstated $79,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, the restatement resulted in lowering the accrued expenses and other liabilities account on the balance sheets, which contains the gift card liabilities, by $80,000 and $373,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

Due to the materiality of these corrections in 2011 and 2012, we are filing an Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (the “Amended 10-K”) to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. As a result of the materiality of the changes in annual reports, we are also restating the interim consolidated financial statements for 1) the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 by filing an amended quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2012; 2) the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 by filing an amended quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2012; and 3) the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2012 by filing an amended quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. We did not amend and do not intend to amend any other previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K or Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods prior to January 1, 2011.

No other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-Q other than those described above. This Amendment does not reflect subsequent events or circumstances that may have occurred after the filing date of the Original Form 10-Q or modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Form 10-Q or otherwise update disclosures (including the exhibits to the Original Form 10-Q other than the updating of: (i) the Exhibits to include updated Certifications of the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers, and (ii) the Exhibit Index to disclose that certain exhibits that were filed with the Original Filing are incorporated by reference into this Amended Filing.)

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. Restatement of Financial Information

Dover Saddlery, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012 to correct its accounting for gift certificate liability. During the 2013 first quarter consolidated financial statements, the Company discovered that certain estimates of its gift card liabilities in 2011 and 2012 were materially overstated due to our failure to appropriately record and summarize certain gift card activity. After a detailed analysis and subsequent error correction of the Company’s estimated gift certificate liabilities, management concluded that further corrections (such analysis and all corrections jointly herein, “Analysis and Correction”) were necessary to properly recognize revenue from the breakage of gift cards that had commenced in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Accounts impacted are net revenues, provision for income taxes, net income, deferred income taxes, other current liabilities (which includes gift card liability), income taxes payable, accumulated deficit. The adjustments will not affect reported amounts of cash and cash equivalents and operating expense.

No other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-Q other than those described above.

As a result of this restatement, net revenues were understated by $80,000 and overstated $132,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively; provisions for income taxes were understated by $31,000 and overstated $54,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively; and net income was understated by $49,000 and overstated $79,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, the restatement resulted in lowering the accrued expenses and other liabilities account on the balance sheets, which contains the gift card liabilities, by $80,000 and $373,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

The effects of the restatements as of and for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 are summarized below (dollars in thousands):

B. Nature of Business and Basis of Preparation

Dover Saddlery, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is a leading specialty retailer and the largest multi-channel marketer of equestrian products in the United States. The Company sells its products through a multi-channel strategy, including direct and retail, with stores located in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Delaware, Texas, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Colorado, Illinois Georgia and Rhode Island. The Company provides a complete line of equestrian products, as well as specially–developed, private label offerings from its direct marketing headquarters, warehouse, and call center facility in Littleton, Massachusetts.

Revenues are recognized when payment is reasonably assured, the product is shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. For direct merchandise sales, this occurs when product is delivered to the common carrier at the Company’s warehouse. For retail sales, this occurs at the point of sale.

The Company’s quarterly product sales have ranged from a low of approximately 20% to a high of approximately 32% of any calendar year’s results. The beginning of the spring outdoor riding season in the northern half of the country has typically generated a slightly stronger second quarter of the year, and the holiday buying season has generated additional demand for our equestrian product line in the fourth quarter of the year. Revenues for the first and third quarters of the calendar year have tended to be somewhat lower than the second and fourth quarters. The Company anticipates that its revenues will continue to vary somewhat by season.

The Company offers a comprehensive selection of products required to own, train and ride a horse, selling from under $1.00 to over $10,000 per product. The Company’s equestrian product line includes a broad variety of separate items, such as saddles, tack, specialized apparel, footwear, horse clothing, horse health and stable products. Separate reporting of the revenues of these numerous items is not practical.

The Company views its operations and manages its business as one operating segment utilizing a multi-channel distribution strategy. Market channel revenues are as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2012 (Restated)		March 31, 2011 (Restated)

Revenues, net – direct	$	11,299	$	12,091
Revenues, net – retail stores		6,857		5,274

Revenues, net – total	$	18,156	$	17,365

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements comprise those of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and its investment in affiliates. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are unaudited. In management’s opinion, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and include all adjustments, consisting of only usual, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ended December 31, 2012.

Certain footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to pertinent rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited December 31, 2011 financial statements, which are included in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 5, 2013 (the “Amended 10-K”).

C. Gift Certificates and Gift Certificate Breakage

The Company’s proceeds from the sale of gift cards are recorded as a liability and are recognized as net sales when the cards are redeemed for merchandise. Through the year ending December 31, 2011, all unredeemed gift card proceeds were reflected as a liability until redeemed. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company identified a history of redemption and breakage patterns associated with its gift cards, which support a change in the estimate of the term over which the Company should recognize income on gift card breakage. Accordingly, beginning with the first quarter of 2012, the Company began to recognize income from the breakage of gift cards when the likelihood of redemption of the gift card is remote and there is no legal obligation for the Company to remit the value of such unredeemed gift cards to any relevant jurisdiction. During the review of the 2013 first quarter consolidated financial statements, the Company discovered that certain estimates of its gift card liabilities in 2011 and 2012 were materially overstated. After a detailed analysis and subsequent error correction of the Company’s estimated gift certificate liabilities, management concluded that further corrections (such analysis and all corrections jointly referred herein as “Analysis and Correction”) were necessary to properly recognize revenue from the breakage of gift cards that had commenced in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

The Company determines its gift card breakage rate based upon historical redemption patterns. Based on this historical information, the likelihood of a gift card remaining unredeemed can be reasonably estimated at the time of gift card issuance. From the point which the likelihood of redemption is deemed to be remote (gift cards that were issued three years prior and remain unredeemed) and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the value of such unredeemed gift cards to any relevant jurisdictions, breakage income is recognized over a two year period. Starting in the first quarter of 2012, gift card breakage income is recorded as revenue and is included on the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Restated breakage income of $482,995, including the restated cumulative impact of the change of $441,362, was recognized as revenue, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income during the three months ending March 31, 2012. There was no breakage recorded for the same period in 2011.

D. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes the fair value of compensation cost of stock-based awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $63,000 and $62,000, respectively.

There was no activity related to stock option grants, exercises or forfeitures for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The amount of future stock-based compensation expense that may be recognized for outstanding, unvested options as of March 31, 2012 was approximately $752,700 to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the employee’s remaining weighted-average, requisite service period of 3.9 years. As of March 31, 2011, the intrinsic value of all “in the money” outstanding options was approximately $968,000.

E. Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods in the Company’s mail-order warehouse and retail stores. The Company’s inventories are stated at the lower of cost, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, or net realizable value. The Company maintains a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. This reserve was $120,000 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The Company continuously monitors the salability of its inventories to ensure adequate valuation of the related merchandise.

F. Advertising

The Company recognizes deferred costs over the period of expected future revenue, which is typically less than one year. Deferred costs as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $1,317,000 and $1,273,000, respectively and consisted of catalog costs. The combined marketing and advertising costs charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $2,100,000 and $1,522,000, respectively.

G. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in net assets of a business enterprise during a period from transactions generated from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company’s only item of other comprehensive income (loss), other than reported net income, was the change in fair value of an interest rate swap. The other comprehensive income, net of taxes, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $9,708; there was no other comprehensive loss to be recorded during the same period in 2011.

H. Net Income per Share

A reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2012		March 31, 2011

Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		5,333		5,287
Add: Dilutive effect of assumed stock option and warrant exercises less potential incremental shares purchased under the treasury method		258		135
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		5,591		5,422

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, approximately 1,034,000 options and 964,000 options, respectively, to acquire common stock were excluded from the diluted weighted average shares calculation as the effect of such options is anti-dilutive.

I. Financing Agreements

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 28, 2011, the Company and its bank, RBS Citizens, N.A., amended the revolving line of credit agreement in connection with the refinancing of the $5,000,000 senior subordinated notes. On May 10, 2012 the Company extended the revolving line of credit to April 30, 2014. Under the amended revolving line of credit, the Company can borrow up to $13,000,000, of which up to $1,000,000 can be in the form of letters of credit, and increase this amount up to $20,000,000 at the discretion of the bank. Any outstanding balances borrowed under the credit facility are due April 30, 2014. The credit facility bears interest at the base rate, announced from time to time by the bank, plus an applicable margin determined by the Company’s funded debt ratio. As of March 30, 2012, the LIBOR rate (base rate) was 0.24%, plus the applicable margin of 2.20%. Interest is payable monthly. At its option, the Company may have all or a portion of the unpaid principal under the credit facility bear interest at a base rate using either LIBOR or the prime rate.

The Company is obligated to pay commitment fees of 0.20% per annum on the average daily, unused amount of the line of credit during the preceding quarter. All assets of the Company collateralize the senior revolving credit facility. Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company is subject to certain covenants including, among others, maximum funded debt ratios, maximum debt to tangible net worth ratios, minimum fixed charge ratios, current asset ratios, and capital expenditures.

At March 31, 2012, the Company had the ability to borrow $13,000,000 on the revolving line of credit, subject to certain covenants, of which there was $4,455,000 outstanding, bearing interest at the net revolver rate of 2.44%. At December 31, 2011, the Company had $987,000 outstanding. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the revolving line of credit.

Term Notes, Senior Subordinated Notes Payable and Warrants

principal. The remaining $1,600,000 of the principal bears a floating rate based on a base rate, with a minimum of 1.0% as announced from time to time by the bank, plus a 4.4% margin. As of December 31, 2011, the LIBOR rate (base rate) was 0.24%. The combined interest rate of 1.0% and 4.4% resulted in a total interest rate of 5.4% at March 31, 2012. Interest is payable monthly. The Company is obligated to repay $786,000 of principal annually commencing in April 2013 and extending to March 2018. The Company is further obligated to accelerate repayment of up to $1,600,000 in principal in the event it has excess cash flow determined by a cash flow recapture formula. All assets of the Company collateralize the term note facility. Under the terms of the term note facility, the Company is subject to certain covenants including, among others, maximum funded debt ratios, minimum fixed charge ratios, current asset ratios, and maximum capital expenditures. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the term note facility.

In connection with the issuance of the retired subordinated notes, the Company issued warrants to the note holders, exercisable at any time after December 11, 2007 for an initial 118,170 shares of its common stock, which warrants have an exercise price of $2.75 per share. The number of shares to be received for the warrants, upon exercise, is subject to change in the event of additional equity issuances and/or stock splits. The warrants were estimated to have a fair value of $272,000, which was reflected as a discount of the note’s proceeds. The discount was amortized through interest expense while the notes were outstanding and the unamortized discount was fully expensed at refinancing. The warrants issued in connection with the subordinated notes are still outstanding and terminate on December 10, 2016.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the $5,500,000 of term notes on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, reflect the $5,500,000 face value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Outstanding checks, net of cash balances in accounts with RBS Citizens, N.A., are included in current portion of capital lease obligation and outstanding checks in current liabilities.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, line of credit advances, capital leases and notes payable. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable reflects fair value due to their short-term nature using level 3 inputs (see Note N for fair value disclosures).

The Company’s outstanding amounts under the unsecured revolving credit facility and term note (“Credit Facility”) are not measured at fair value on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company determines the fair value of the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility using an income approach, utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for debt issues with similar remaining years to maturity, adjusted for applicable credit risk. Our Credit Facility is valued using level 2 inputs. The results of these calculations yield fair values that approximate carrying values. The value of our Credit Facility was $9,955,000 and $6,487,000 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

J. Investment in Affiliate

On April 11, 2008, the Company acquired 40% of the common stock of Hobby Horse Clothing Company, Inc. (“HH”), a privately held company, in exchange for 81,720 shares of unregistered Dover common stock. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method. The total acquisition costs included $380,000 in common stock, as well as $33,300 in professional fees. Based on the purchase allocation, the total acquisition cost of $413,300 was allocated to the fair value of the Company’s share of net assets acquired, including approximately $138,000 of intangible assets, which represents the difference between the costs and underlying equity in HH’s net assets at the date of acquisition.

The Company’s equity share of HH’s net income, including the intangible asset customer list amortization (resulting from the purchase price allocation) is reflected as other investment (income) loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company recorded net gain of approximately $8,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2012 compared to a net loss recorded of approximately $(17,000) for the same period in 2011. In addition, the Company increased its investment in HH by $10,000 during the three months ending March 31, 2012. The resulting carrying value at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is approximately $288,000 and $270,000, respectively and is included in intangibles and other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In May 2010, the Company launched a joint venture to provide equine pharmaceuticals to the equine marketplace. The venture, HorsePharm.com, LLC (“HP”), was established as a limited liability company, and Dover has a non-controlling interest of 50%. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method. Thus, during the second quarter of 2010, Dover recorded its portion of the initial investment in HP of $60,000. For the three months ending March 31, 2012 the Company recorded a net loss of approximately $(1,000) for its share of the joint venture’s operating results compared to a net loss recorded of approximately $(4,000) for the same period in 2011. The carrying value at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was approximately $28,000 and $30,000, respectively, which is

included in intangibles and other assets, net, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The operating agreement governing HP contains a buy/sell feature that can be exercised for a price established by the HP member who initiates the buy/sell feature. The HP member that receives the offer can elect to buy the other member’s interest or sell its interest at the offered price.

K. Income Taxes

At March 31, 2012, the Company maintains a liability of $33,000, for unrecognized tax benefits. Although the Company believes it has adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different. The Company adjusts these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences will impact the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to reserves that are considered appropriate, as well as the related net interest.

The Company records interest and penalties related to income taxes as a component of provision for income taxes. The Company recognized nominal interest and penalty expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company restated income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 as result of correcting the overstatement of gift card income.

Tax years 2006 through 2011 remain subject to examination by the IRS, and 2007 through 2011 tax years remain subject to examination by Massachusetts, and 2006 through 2011 by various other jurisdictions.

L. Related Party Transactions

On October 26, 2007, the disinterested members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved a $5,000,000 subordinated debt financing facility in the form of senior subordinated notes as part of a plan to refinance the Company’s former subordinated debt with Patriot Capital. The new sub-debt facility was led by BCA Mezzanine Fund, L.P., which participated at $2,000,000 (in which Company Board member Gregory Mulligan holds a management position and indirect economic interest). The subordinated notes were consummated as of December 11, 2007. Except as noted above with respect to Mr. Mulligan, there is no relationship, arrangement or understanding between the Company and any of the subordinated holders or any of their affiliates, other than in respect of the loan agreement establishing and setting forth the terms and conditions of the subordinated notes. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 the Company recognized $175,000 in interest expense for the subordinated notes payable, which was paid on March 28, 2011.

On March 28, 2011, the Company repaid these subordinated notes and $423,000 of deferred interest from the proceeds of $5,500,000 in term notes. The warrants issued in connection with the subordinated notes are still outstanding and terminate on December 10, 2016.

In October of 2004, the Company entered into a lease agreement with a minority stockholder. The agreement, which relates to the Plaistow, NH retail store, is a five-year lease with options to extend for an additional fifteen years. In October 2009, the Company exercised its first option to extend the lease for additional five years. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company expensed in connection with this lease $53,000 and $52,000, respectively.

In order to expedite the efficient build-out of leasehold improvements in its new retail stores, the Company utilizes the services of a real estate development company owned by a non-executive Company employee and minority stockholder to source construction services and retail fixtures. Total payments made to the real estate development company for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, consisting primarily of reimbursements for materials and outside labor for the fit-up of stores, were $142,000 and $20,000, respectively.

M. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company leases its facilities and certain fixed assets that may be purchased for a nominal amount on the expiration of the leases under non-cancelable operating and capital leases that extend through 2019. These leases, which may be renewed for periods ranging from one to five years, include fixed rental agreements as well as agreements with rent escalation clauses.

In connection with retail locations, the Company enters into various operating lease agreements, with escalating rental payments. The effects of variable rent disbursements have been expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was approximately $646,000 and $618,000, respectively, of deferred rent recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is exposed to litigation relating to our products and operations. The Company is not currently engaged in any legal proceedings that are expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material, adverse affect on our financial condition or results of operations.

N. Interest Rate Swap

The Company uses an interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge to eliminate the cash flow exposure of interest rate movements on variable rate debt. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap contract in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. FASB ASC 815 requires all derivatives, including interest rate swaps, to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The increase or decrease in the fair value of the hedge is initially included as a component of other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings and recorded as interest expense, when interest on the related debt is paid. The Company values the interest rate swap contract in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. The Company documents its risk management strategy and hedge effectiveness at the inception of and during the term of the hedge. The Company’s interest rate risk management strategy is to stabilize cash flow requirements by maintaining the interest rate swap contract to convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its borrowing activities. The Company uses an interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge to eliminate the cash flow exposure of interest rate movements on variable rate debt. The Company’s term note is a variable rate instrument. On April 1, 2011, the Company entered into a 7-year interest rate swap contract on the notional value of $3,900,000 of the term note which requires payment of a fixed interest rate of interest (7.4%) and the receipt of a variable rate of interest, based on one month LIBOR rate, on the $3,900,000.

The Company designated this interest rate swap contract as an effective cash flow hedge. The Company adjusts the interest rate swap to fair value with the change accounted for through other comprehensive income, as the contracts are considered effective in offsetting the interest rate exposure of the forecasted interest rate payments hedged. The Company anticipates that this contract will continue to be effective as long as there are no pre-payments of the hedged portion of the term note. The Company does not believe any of the amounts currently reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings in 2012. The fair value of the interest rate swap at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was a liability of $305,303 and $321,879, respectively.

The Company does not hold any derivative instruments that are not designated as a hedging instrument. The following table presents information about the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments that have been designated as hedging instruments as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

O. Fair Value

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described below:


Level 1 –		Pricing inputs are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The Company does not have any investments meeting the criteria of Level 1 inputs.

Level 2 –		Pricing inputs are quoted prices for similar investments, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term through corroboration with observable market data. The Company’s derivatives discussed above, meet the criteria of a Level 2 input.

Level 3 –		Pricing inputs include unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which are developed based on the best information available. Level 3 includes private investments that have no market activity. The Company does not have any investments meeting the criteria of Level 3 inputs.

The Company accounts for its interest rate swap as a derivative financial instrument in accordance with the related guidance. Under this guidance, derivatives are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap is determined based on observable market data in combination with expected cash flows. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap was determined using projected future cash flows, discounted at the mid-market implied forward LIBOR. The value at March 31, 2012 is included in long-term liabilities.

The following table presents the financial instruments carried at fair value as of March 31, 2012 in accordance with the FASB ASC 820 hierarchy noted above:


	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Interest Rate Swap Contract as of March 31, 2012		—	$	(305,303	)		—	$	(305,303	)

P. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement and disclosure. Among other things, the guidance expands the disclosure requirements around fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and requires disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but whose fair value must be disclosed. It also clarifies and expands upon existing requirements for measurement of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities as well as instruments classified in shareholders’ equity. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, amends the guidance in ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, by eliminating the option to present components of other comprehensive income (OCI) in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Instead, the new guidance now requires entities to present all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity either as a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or as two separate but consecutive statements. The components of OCI have not changed, nor has the guidance on when OCI items are reclassified to net income; however, the amendments require entities to present all reclassification adjustments from OCI to net income on the face of the statement of comprehensive income. For public entities, the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The amended guidance must be applied retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this disclosure guidance as of December 31, 2011.

Q. Subsequent Events

On May 10, 2012, RBS Citizens Bank N.A. approved the renewal of the Company’s $13,000,000 revolving line of credit under the existing terms with the maturity date being extended to April 30, 2014 and the elimination of the tangible net worth covenant.

The Company has evaluated all events or transactions through the date of this filing. During this period, the Company did not have any other material subsequent events that impacted its restated condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the following discussion, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the words “projected”, “anticipated”, “planned”, “expected”, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In particular, statements regarding future financial targets or trends are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of our future financial performance, and undue reliance should not be placed on them. Our actual results, performance or achievements may differ significantly from the results, performance or achievements discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such a difference are detailed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 5, 2013 (the “Amended 10-K”) (“fiscal 2011”) and in our subsequent periodic reports on Form 10-Q. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

The following information has been amended to correct certain errors related to the overstatement of gift certificate liabilities for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, which is more fully described in the “Explanatory Note” immediately preceding the Index to the Quarterly Report and in Note A “Restatement of Consolidated Financial Information” under “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” of this Amended 10-Q.

All further references to revenues, breakage income, gross profit, Adjusted EBITDA, income tax provision, net income and earnings per share in the following discussion refer to restated amounts.

Overview

The Company is a leading, specialty retailer and the largest multi-channel marketer of equestrian products in the U.S. For over 35 years, Dover Saddlery has been a premier upscale marketing brand in the English-style riding industry. We sell our products through a multi-channel strategy, including direct and retail. This multi-channel strategy has allowed us to use catalogs and our proprietary database of over two million names of equestrian enthusiasts as the primary marketing tools to increase catalog sales and to drive additional business to our e-commerce websites and retail stores.

The Company achieved revenue growth during 2011 and for the first quarter of 2012, especially in its retail stores. As a result the Company opened two new stores in 2011, and will be opening an additional store in Warrington, PA in the second quarter of 2012. The Company will continue to seek other new store locations that may be opened in 2012. However, our strategy to increase the number of retail store locations is based on finding optimal locations where demand for equestrian products is high and adequate capital to invest in its store expansion plan.

Consolidated Performance and Trends

The Company reported restated net income in the first quarter of 2012 of $142,000 or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to net income of $174,000 or $0.03 per diluted share for the corresponding period in 2011, a decrease of 18.1%.

The first quarter of 2012 results reflect our continuing efforts to execute our growth strategy in the retail market channel where revenues increased 30.0% to $6.8 million in the quarter. This trend of increased revenue in the retail market channel may be slowed or eroded by delays in the execution of our new store expansion strategy, constraints in available capital, and interim declines in consumer demand at our retail stores impacted by lingering effects of the recent global financial and credit crisis. The Company responds to fluctuations in revenues primarily by delaying the opening of new stores, adjusting marketing efforts and operations to support our retail stores and managing costs. The success of our new store growth plan is dependent upon the response of our customers to these marketing strategies and evolving market conditions. Our direct market channel revenues decreased 6.5%, to $11.3 million in the first quarter of 2012, due to a reduced consumer spending and a shift by some consumers to shop more in stores. We respond to fluctuations in our direct customers’ response by adjusting the quantities of catalogs mailed and other internet marketing and customer-related strategies and tactics in order to maximize revenues and manage costs.

Given continued economic uncertainty, it is very difficult to accurately predict economic trends; however, the increase in consumer sentiment since 2008 and the Company’s store sales, have given us confidence to resume our store rollout strategy which commenced in the second quarter of 2011 and will continue throughout 2012.

Single Reporting Segment

The Company operates and manages its business as one operating segment utilizing a multi-channel, distribution strategy.

(2)

When we use the term “Adjusted EBITDA”, we are referring to net income minus interest income and other income plus interest expense, income taxes, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization and other investment (income) loss, net. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA has some limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Some of the limitations are:

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or capital commitments;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of an impairment charge that might be taken, when future results are not achieved as planned, in respect of goodwill resulting from any premium the Company might pay in the future in connection with potential acquisitions;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

•

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

•

Although stock-based compensation is a non-cash charge, additional stock options might be granted in the future, which might have a future dilutive effect on earnings and earnings per share; and

•

Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The following table reconciles net income to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

Revenues

Total revenues increased $0.8 million, or 4.5%, to $18.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $17.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Revenues in our direct market channel decreased $0.8 million, or 6.5%, to $11.3 million from $12.1 million in the corresponding period in 2011. Revenues in our retail market channel increased $1.6 million, or 30.0%, to $6.8 million from $5.3 million in 2011. The decrease in our direct market channel was due to weakness in consumer spending in this channel. The increase in revenues from our retail market channel was due to strong sales growth from our newer stores as they mature, two additional retail stores and promotions. Same store sales for the three month period increased 16.1% over the prior year. In addition, breakage income of $482,995, including a cumulative impact of $441,362, was recognized during the three months ending March 31, 2012. There was no breakage recorded for the same period in 2011.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $0.3 million, or 4.2%, to $6.9 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2011. Gross profit, as a percentage of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased 0.1% to 38.2% from 38.3% for the corresponding period in 2011. The slight decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was attributable to increased cost of revenues, offset by increased revenue as a result of the breakage income recorded in Q1 2012.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.6 million, or 10.4% to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 35.7% of revenues from 34.2% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2011 as a result of increased costs in 2012 and slow sales growth. SG&A increased primarily as a result of an additional $578,000 in marketing costs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, attributed to our term note and revolving credit facility decreased $265,000 or 71.0%, to $109,000 from $374,000 due to the refinancing of our subordinated notes with a term note from our bank.

Other Investment Income

Net income from investment activities consists of the Company’s share of net earnings or loss of its affiliate as they occur. The Company’s net investment gain for the three months ending March 31, 2012 was $7,000, an increase of $28,000 over its net investment loss of $21,000 in 2011. The Company’s investment income or loss from investment activities are related to our investments in Hobby Horse Clothing Company, Inc. (“HH”) and Horsepharm, LLC.

Income Tax Provision

The provision for income taxes was $146,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, reflecting an effective tax rate of 51%, compared to $159,000 for the corresponding period in 2011, reflecting an effective tax rate of 48%. The effective tax rate for the quarter was based upon management’s best estimates of the estimated effective rates for each entire year.

Net Income

The net income for the first quarter of 2012 decreased by $31,000, or 18.1%, to $142,000, compared to $174,000 (restated) in the first quarter of 2011. This decrease in the net income was due primarily to increased revenue from the retail market channel and gift certificate breakage, offset by cost of revenues and SG&A expenses related to marketing costs. The resulting quarterly income per diluted share increased to $0.03 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $0.03 per diluted share for the corresponding period in 2011.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Since 2001, our quarterly product sales have ranged from a low of approximately 20% to a high of approximately 32% of any calendar year’s results. The beginning of the spring outdoor riding season in the northern half of the country has typically generated a slightly stronger second quarter of the year, and the holiday buying season has generated additional demand for our normal equestrian product lines in the fourth quarter of the year. Revenues for the first and third quarters of the calendar year have tended to be somewhat lower than the second and fourth quarters. We anticipate that our revenues will continue to vary somewhat by season. The timing of our new retail store openings has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant impact on our quarterly results. We will incur one-time expenses related to the opening of each new store. As we open new stores, (i) revenues may spike and then settle, and (ii) pre-opening expenses, including occupancy and management overhead, are incurred, which may not be offset by correlating revenues during the same financial reporting period. As a result of these factors, new retail store openings may result in temporary declines in operating profit, both in dollars and as a percentage of sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, our cash was reduced by $133,000. Cash was utilized primarily for seasonal working capital requirements. The source for cash generated related to increased balances in depreciation and amortization and increased borrowings under our revolving credit facility. On March 28, 2011 the Company amended its line of credit facility with the bank with the potential to increase the available credit from $13,000,000 up to $20,000,000 at the bank’s discretion. On March 28, 2011 the Company also refinanced the $5,000,000 Senior Subordinated Notes plus deferred interest from proceeds of a $5,500,000 term note facility from the bank at a reduced interest rate. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under both credit facilities as of March 31, 2012. Effective as of April 30, 2012 the tangible net worth covenant has been eliminated.

If necessary, we plan in the future to seek additional financing from banks, or through public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities, strategic relationships, or other arrangements. In the event we fail to meet our financial covenants with our bank, we may not have access through our line of credit to sufficient working capital to pursue our growth strategy, or if our covenant non-compliance triggers a default, our loans may be called requiring the repayment of all amounts on our loans.

Operating Activities

Cash utilized in our operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $2.5 million compared to $4.0 million for the corresponding period in 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, cash outflows consisted primarily of seasonal increases in inventory and initial stocking of new stores, deferred taxes and prepaid and other assets of $0.9 million, as well as reductions in accrued expenses, gift certificate liability and other current liabilities, income taxes payable and accounts payable of $2.2 million. Cash inflows were attributable to the results of operations which consisted of net income, reduction in accounts receivable, non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization and non-cash interest and other expenses, totaling $0.6 million of cash. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, cash utilized by our operating activities was $4.0 million. Cash outflows consisted primarily of seasonal increases in inventory, payment of deferred interest and prepaid and other assets of $2.6 million, as well as reductions in accrued expenses, income taxes payable, other current liabilities, and accounts payable of $2.1 million. The results of operations consisted of the net income, reduction in accounts receivable, non-cash expenses of depreciation, amortization and non-cash interest and other expenses, totaling $0.7 million of cash.

Investing Activities

Cash utilized from our investing activities was $463,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to cash utilized of $121,000 for the corresponding period in 2011. Investing activities consisted primarily of retail store improvement costs and new store fixtures. As additional stores are opened, the Company invests in inventory in order to initially stock the store with product.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by our financing activities was $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $3.6 million provided in the corresponding period in 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we funded our seasonal operating activities and investing activities with net borrowings of $3.5 million under our revolving credit. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we funded our seasonal operating and investing activities with net borrowings of $1.3 million under our revolving credit facility as well as paying our subordinated note of $5.0 million and borrowing under a new term note for $5.5 million.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 28, 2011, the Company and its bank, RBS Citizens, N.A., amended the revolving line of credit agreement in connection with the refinancing of the $5,000,000 senior subordinated notes. On May 10, 2012, the Company extended the revolving line of credit to April 30, 2014. Under the amended revolving line of credit, the Company can borrow up to $13,000,000, of which up to $1,000,000 can be in the form of letters of credit, and increase this amount up to $20,000,000 at the discretion of the bank. Any outstanding balances borrowed under the credit facility are due April 30, 2014. The credit facility bears interest at the base rate, announced from time to time by the bank, plus an applicable margin determined by the Company’s funded debt ratio. As of March 30, 2012, the LIBOR rate (base rate) was 0.24%, plus the applicable margin of 2.20%. Interest is payable monthly. At its option, the Company may have all or a portion of the unpaid principal under the credit facility bear interest at a base rate using either LIBOR or the prime rate.

Term Notes, Senior Subordinated Notes Payable and Warrants

On March 28, 2011, the Company borrowed $5,500,000 in the form of a 7-year term note from the bank to refinance the $5,000,000 senior subordinated notes and deferred interest on those notes. The initial floating rate interest on the $1,600,000 of principal (the variable interest rate portion of the term note) was 5.4% consisting of a 1.0% LIBOR floor plus a 4.4% margin. The initial floating rate interest on the $3,900,000 of principal (fixed portion of the term note with the interest rate swap discussed below) was LIBOR plus 4.4%. On April 1, 2011, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to fix the interest rate at 7.4% on $3,900,000 of the term note principal. The remaining $1,600,000 of the principal bears a floating rate based on a base rate, with a minimum of 1.0% as announced from time to time by the bank, plus a 4.4% margin. As of December 31, 2011, the LIBOR rate (base rate) was 0.24%. The combined interest rate of 1.0% and 4.4% resulted in a total interest rate of 5.4% at March 31, 2012. Interest is payable monthly. The Company is obligated to repay $786,000 of principal annually commencing in April 2013 and extending to March 2018. The Company is further obligated to accelerate repayment of up to $1,600,000 in principal in the event it has excess cash flow determined by a cash flow recapture formula. All assets of the Company collateralize the term note facility. Under the terms of the term note facility, the Company is subject to certain covenants including, among others, maximum funded debt ratios, minimum fixed charge ratios, current asset ratios, and maximum capital expenditures. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the term note facility.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the $5,500,000 of term notes on the consolidated balance sheet, reflect the $5,500,000 face value.

Working Capital and Capital Expenditure Needs

The Company believes our existing cash, cash equivalents, expected cash to be provided by our operating activities, and funds available through our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our currently planned working capital and capital expenditure needs over at least the next twelve months. We anticipate increasing capital expenditures by adding stores in 2012 and beyond. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the expansion of our marketing and sales activities, the expansion of our retail stores, the acquisition of new capabilities or technologies and the continuing market acceptance of our products. To the extent that existing cash, cash equivalents, cash from operations and cash from our revolving credit facility under the conditions and covenants of our credit facilities are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Although we are currently not a party to any agreement or letter of intent with respect to potential investments in, or acquisitions of, businesses, services or technologies which we anticipate would require us to seek additional equity or debt financing, we may enter into these types of arrangements in the future. There is no assurance that additional funds would be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Funds from our revolving credit facility may not be available if we fail to meet the financial covenants contained in the loan agreements with our lender. At March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants under the credit facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates. A summary of significant accounting policies and a description of accounting policies that are considered critical may be found in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 5, 2013 (the “Amended 10-K”), in Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; as supplemented by the disclosures in this Quarterly Report in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As discussed in Note B of the Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, beginning in the first quarter of 2012, we began to recognize income from the breakage of gift cards when the likelihood of redemption of the gift card is remote. In addition, we define our same store sales to include sales from all stores open for a full fifteen months following a grand opening, or a conversion to a Dover-branded store.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

At March 31, 2012, there had not been a material change in any of the market risk information disclosed by us in our Amended 10-K. More detailed information concerning market risk can be found in Item 7A under the sub-caption “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” of the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on page 39 of our Amended 10-K.

The Company’s objective in managing our long-term exposure to interest rate and foreign currency rate changes is to limit the material impact of the changes on cash flows and earnings and to lower our overall borrowing costs. We have calculated the effect of a 10% change in interest rates over a month-long period for both our debt obligations and our marketable securities investments and determined the effect to be immaterial. We do not foresee or expect any significant changes in the management of foreign currency or interest rate exposures or in the strategies we employ to manage such exposures in the near future.

Foreign Currency Risk

Nearly all of the Company’s revenues are derived from transactions denominated in U.S. dollars. We purchase products in the normal course of business from foreign manufacturers. As such, we have exposure to adverse changes in exchange rates associated with those product purchases, but this exposure has not been significant.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $180,000 at March 31, 2012. The unrestricted cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. We intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents, including money market funds and certificates of deposit. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value as a result of changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2012, all of our investments were held in money market funds.

The Company’s exposure to market risk also relates to the increase or decrease in the amount of interest expense we must pay our outstanding debt instruments, primarily certain borrowings under our revolving credit facility and on the $1,600,000 of the term notes that bear interest at a floating rate. The advances under this revolving credit facility and the $1,600,000 of principal of the term note bear a variable rate of interest determined as a function of the prime rate and the published LIBOR rate at the time of the borrowing. If interest rates were to increase by two percent, the additional interest expense as of March 31, 2012 would be approximately $89,000 annually. At March 31, 2012, $4,454,711 was outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on our recent Analysis and Correction, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have now concluded that, as of March 31, 2011 and 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weakness as of those respective dates in our internal control over financial reporting described below. Despite the existence of the material weakness, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this Amendment of the 2012 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”).

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process defined by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by management and other personnel, under the oversight of the board of directors, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

•

Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

•

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance to U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

•

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Our management conducts regular periodic evaluations of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by our internal controls.

Based on our most recent evaluation in May 2013, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in accounting for gift card liabilities as of March 31, 2011 and 2012. Specifically, as of those respective dates, we did

not have adequately designed controls in place to ensure the appropriate accounting for and disclosure of gift card liability in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management has, therefore, now concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011 and 2012.

Historical context is critical to understanding the nature of this deficiency. Through the year ending December 31, 2011, all unredeemed gift card proceeds were reflected as a liability until redeemed. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company identified a history of redemption and breakage patterns associated with its gift cards, which supported a change in the estimate of the term over which the Company recognizes income on gift card breakage. Beginning with the first quarter of 2012, the Company began to recognize revenue from the breakage of gift cards, based on the homogenous pool method of estimating liabilities from comparable groups of gift cards.

During the review of the 2013 first quarter consolidated financial statements, management discovered that certain estimates of its gift card liabilities in 2011 and 2012 were materially overstated due to errors in accumulating and summarizing detail gift card activity. After a detailed analysis of the Company’s estimated gift certificate liabilities, management determined that the Company should revise its activity accumulation process and change to the itemization method for estimating gift card liabilities, based on a new database to track each gift card from and after January 1, 2013.

Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurances. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As a result of the material weakness described above, management will present a proposed remediation plan to our audit committee and our board of directors concerning our internal control over financial reporting by July 25, 2013. Remedying the material weakness described above will require management time and attention over the coming months and may result in additional incremental expenses. Although we do not anticipate this, any failure on our part to remedy our identified weakness or any additional errors or delays in our financial reporting would have a material effect on our business and could have a substantial impact on the trading price of our common stock. Subject to oversight by our board of directors, our chief executive officer will be responsible for implementing management’s internal control remediation plan, approved by our audit committee and accepted and approved by our board of directors.

Except as described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the specific risk factors listed under Part I, Item 1A of our Amended 10-K, together with all other information included or incorporated in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any such risks may materialize, and additional risks not known to us, or that we now deem immaterial, may arise. In such event, our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that occurs, the market price of our common stock could fall, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes or incorporates forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “may”, “will”, “would”, “intends”, “estimates”, and other similar expressions, whether in the negative or affirmative. We cannot guarantee that we actually will achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements made. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements below that we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein. The forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers or dispositions. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained herein. In addition to the list of significant risk factors set forth in the Company’s Amended 10-K, we continue to call your attention to the following information that might be considered material in evaluating the risks of our business and an investment in our common stock:

A decline in discretionary consumer spending and related externalities could reduce the Company’s revenues.

The Company’s revenues depend to a degree on discretionary consumer spending, which may decrease due to a variety of factors beyond our control. These include unfavorable general business, financial and economic conditions, increases in interest rates, increases in inflation, stock market uncertainty, war, terrorism, fears of war or terrorism, increases in consumer debt levels and decreases in the availability of consumer credit, adverse or unseasonable weather conditions, adverse changes in applicable laws and regulations, increases in taxation, adverse unemployment trends and other factors that adversely influence consumer confidence and spending. Any one of these factors could result in adverse fluctuations in our revenues generally. Our revenues also depend on the extent to which discretionary consumer spending is directed towards recreational activities generally and equestrian activities and products in particular. Reductions in the amounts of discretionary spending directed to such activities would reduce our revenues.

The Company’s customers’ purchases of discretionary items, including our products, may decline during periods when disposable income is lower, or periods of actual or perceived unfavorable economic conditions. If this occurs, our revenues would decline, which may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Material changes in cash flow and debt levels may adversely affect the Company’s growth and credit facilities, require the immediate repayment of all our loans, and limit the ability to open new stores.

During seasonal and cyclical changes in our revenue levels, to fund our retail growth strategy, and to fund increases in our direct business, we make use of our credit facilities, which are subject to EBITDA, fixed charge ratio, maximum capital expenditure limitations, total debt, tangible net worth and related covenants. If we are out of compliance with our covenants at the end of a fiscal period, it may adversely affect our growth prospects, require the consent of our lender to open new stores or in the worst case, trigger a loan default and require the repayments of all amounts then outstanding on our loans. In the event of our insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or reorganization, the lender under our revolving credit facility and term note would be entitled to payment in full from our assets before distributions, if any, were made to our stockholders.

In order to execute our retail store expansion strategy, we may need to borrow additional funds, raise additional equity financing or finance our planned expansion from profits. Our borrowings may be restricted by financial covenants; or we may also need to raise additional capital in the future to respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated financial requirements. We may not be able to obtain additional financing, including the extension or refinancing of our revolving credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all. A failure to obtain additional financing or an inability to obtain financing on acceptable terms could require us to incur indebtedness at high rates of interest or with substantial restrictive covenants, including prohibitions on payment of dividends.

We may obtain additional financing by issuing equity securities that will dilute the ownership interests of existing shareholders. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be forced to scale back operations or be unable to address opportunities for expansion or enhancement of our operations.

Management’s determination that a material weakness exist in our internal controls over financial reporting could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

We are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In Item 4 of this Quarterly Report, management reports that a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Due to this material weakness, management has concluded that as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Consequently, and pending the Company’s remediation of the matters underlying the material weakness, our business and results of operations could be harmed, we may be unable to report properly or timely the results of our operations, and investors may lose faith in the reliability of our financial statements. Accordingly, the price of our securities may be adversely and materially impacted.

The Company’s market is highly competitive, and we may not continue to compete successfully.

The Company competes in a highly competitive marketplace with a variety of retailers, dealers and distributors. The equestrian products market is highly fragmented with approximately 10,000 retail store locations nationwide. Many of these are small businesses that have a loyal customer base that compete very effectively in their local markets. We plan to apply our historic disciplines to confront the significant competition that we face in each of our local markets. We may, therefore, not be able to generate sufficient sales to support our new retail store locations. There are also a significant number of sporting goods stores, mass merchandisers and other better funded companies that could decide to enter into or expand their equestrian products offerings. Liquidating inventory sales by our former competitors may cause us temporarily to lose business and perhaps even to lose customers. In addition, if our continuing competitors reduce their prices and continue free shipping practices, we may have to reduce our prices in order to compete. Our cost cutting and overhead efficiency measures in fiscal 2010 may also have had some negative effect on our market share in the short run. We may be forced to increase our advertising or mail a greater number of catalogs in order to generate the same or even lower level of sales. Any one of these competitive factors could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. It is possible that increased competition or improved performance by our competitors may reduce our market share, may reduce our profit margin, and may adversely affect our business and financial performance in other ways.

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by pricing pressures from fluctuations in energy and/or commodity costs.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of fabrics and other raw materials used to manufacture the Company’s products, as well as the price for labor and transportation have contributed to, and may continue to contribute to, ongoing pricing pressures throughout the Company’s supply chain. The price and availability of such inputs to the manufacturing process may fluctuate significantly, depending on several factors, including commodity costs (such as higher cotton prices), energy costs (such as fuel), inflationary pressures from emerging markets, increased labor costs, weather conditions and currency fluctuations. Any or all of these impacts could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. We may be unable to pass such price increases along to the Company’s customers and be unable to maintain the Company’s gross margins. In addition, the increase in energy and commodity costs could adversely affect consumer spending and demand for the Company’s products.

The Company’s cost savings initiatives may have a negative impact on our market share in the short run.

During 2009 and 2010, through our cost-cutting initiatives, we reduced operating expenses. Much of these savings were achieved through decreased marketing expenditures and reductions in labor hours, which were continued through the first quarter of 2011. We believe these measures were necessary and appropriate to maintain the health of our business in response to current economic conditions. However, as we renew our efforts to stimulate demand, some of our historic cost-cutting measures may also have some negative effects on our ability to accelerate sales growth in the short run.
