Item 8.01 Other Events
On April 29, 2010, the Registrant and several other direct and indirect U.S. subsidiaries of the Registrant (collectively, the “U.S. Debtors”), filed their financial statements included in the Monthly Operating Report for the period from March 8, 2010 to April 4, 2010 with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (“U.S. Bankruptcy Court”) (In re Magna Entertainment Corp., et al, Chapter 11, Case No. 09-10720). A copy of the monthly operating report is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of the U.S. Debtors’ compliance with the monthly reporting requirements of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. The Financial information in the Monthly Operating Report was not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, and has not been subject to all procedures that would typically be applied to financial information presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and therefore may exclude items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals, and disclosure items. The Registrant cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon the Monthly Operating Report. There can be no assurance that such information is complete. The Monthly Operating Report may be subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. The Monthly Operating Report is in a format required by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and should not be used for investment purposes. The information in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
