If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, the Registrant closed a number of transactions which will result in a significant change in its results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year, including:
• | on December 15, 2006, the Registrant sold its Zindart Manufacturing division (including the shares of Zindart Manufacturing Limited and Dongguan Xinda) and leased the underlying land to Poundwell Limited for a nominal rent until the title of the land is transferred pursuant to which the Registrant (i) paid to Poundwell approximately $2.225 million to settle and waive inter-company liabilities owed to Zindart Manufacturing and other transaction costs; (ii) discharged approximately $1.4 million of Zindart Manufacturing related bank indebtedness; (iii) paid $250,000 with respect to the settlement of capital lease obligations; (iv) agreed to assume $1.0 million of property transfer taxes arising from the sale of the factory; and (v) the Registrant’s subsidiary, Corgi Classics Limited, entered into a vendor agreement pursuant to which the Regsitrant agreed to purchase from Zindart Manufacturing at least $7.5 million of product in the first year of the contract, $5.5 million in the second year and $5.0 million in the third year of the contract, subject to competitive pricing and other conditions; |
• | on December 20, 2006, the Registrant closed the acquisition of Cards Inc. Limited for a total of 1,191,110 ADSs pursuant to which 612,213 ADSs are being held in escrow to cover certain representations and warranties of Cards, including representations relating to revenues and earnings of Cards for 2008 and 2009; |
• | on December 20, 2006, the Registrant closed a private placement of $17.6 million at $6.60 per ADS for an aggregate of 2,666,506 ADSs and issued warrants to purchase 799,938 ADSs with an exercise price of $7.80 per ADS; |
• | on December 20, 2006, the Registrant converted $5.65 million in principal amount of convertible notes issued in a private placement in April 2006 at $6.60 per ADSs for an aggregate of 902,414 ADSs and issued warrants to purchase 270,716 ADSs with an exercise price of $7.80 per ADS; |
• | on December 26, 2006, the Registrant closed the merger with Master Replicas Inc. pursuant to which it issued 3,956,867 ADSs to the shareholders of Master Replicas (including the assumed pre-existing Master Replicas warrants to purchase 139,617 ADSs which were exercised on December 27, 2006), and assumed pre-existing Master Replicas options to purchase 918,053 ADSs and pre-existing Master Replicas warrants to purchase 20,314 ADS; and |
• | on August 22, 2007, the Registrant and its warrant holders amended the terms of the 1,070,654 warrants issued in December 2006 to reduce temporarily their exercise price from $7.80 per share to $5.00 per share if exercised by August 22, 2007. Any warrantholder exercising their warrants would be entitled to receive a new warrant on substantially the same terms as the existing warrants but with an exercise price of $6.00 per share. The terms of any warrant not exercised by August 22, 2007 remain unchanged. Holders of 368,863 warrants exercised such warrants for approximately $1.844 million by August 22, 2007. The Company issued 184,427 new warrants to such holders. |
In light of the above, the Registrant’s results of operations to be included in the earnings statements in its Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 are anticipated to reflect a significant change from the results of operations for the corresponding period in 2006.
The registrant is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the results of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 because its consolidated financial statements for that period have not been completed and cannot be completed by the prescribed due date without unreasonable effort and expense.
