Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K, dated July 20, 2009, filed by Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation on July 24, 2009 (the “Original Report”). The Original Report was filed to report the completion of Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation’s acquisition of Universal Safety Response, Inc. (“USR”). In response to parts (a) and (b) of Item 9.01 of the Original Report, Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation stated that it would file the required financial information by amendment, as permitted by Items 9.01(a)(4) and 9.01(b)(2) of Form 8-K. Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation hereby amends the Original Report in order to provide the required financial information.
At the time Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation filed the above-referenced Form 8-K regarding the USR acquisition, Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation believed that the acquisition would qualify as a “significant” acquisition under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, requiring only one year of audited financial statements. Based on Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation’s closing stock price as of July 20, 2009 and subsequent determination of the fair value regarding the earnout associated with this acquisition, Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation has determined that the investment test of Rule 3-05 requires Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation to provide two years of audited financial statements for USR. Currently, Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation is unable to provide audited financial statements of USR for the calendar year ended December 31, 2007, as an audit has not yet been conducted. Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation is assessing the financial records of USR in order to determine whether an audit for the period ending December 31, 2007 is possible. Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation is, therefore, not in compliance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X. Until Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation files audited financial statements for USR as required under Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X, the Securities and Exchange Commission will not declare effective registration statements or post-effective amendments filed by Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation for a maximum time frame of up to one year from the filing of this Form 8-K/A. This restriction does not apply to currently effective registration statements covering employee benefit plans, transactions involving secondary offerings, sales of securities under Rule 144, or offerings or sales of securities upon the conversion of outstanding convertible securities or upon the exercise of outstanding warrants or rights.
