ITEM 4.02
NON-RELIANCE ON PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR A RELATED AUDIT REPORT OR COMPLETED INTERIM REVIEW.
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to amend the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 30, 2005.
On March 22, 2005, Decorator Industries, Inc. (DII) management along with its independent auditors concluded that DII’s quarterly financial statements filed on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended April 3, 2004, July 3, 2004, and October 2, 2004 and the financial information for the quarter ended January 1, 2005 as furnished on Form 8-K dated March 2, 2005 should no longer be relied upon because DII is making certain adjustments to restate or revise previously reported financial results.
Following a review with the SEC on March 22, 2005 of DII’s accounting for the acquisition of Fleetwood Enterprises’ Drapery operations, it was the SEC’s view that DII purchased a business rather than assets. Certain excess costs associated with this acquisition were capitalized and being amortized over the 6 year period of the exclusive supply agreement. The SEC determined these costs should in fact have been expensed as incurred to conform with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
The expensing of these costs will reduce net income by $311,524 or 11 cents per diluted share for fiscal 2004. Going forward this will reduce the amortization costs over the remaining five years of the initial term of the exclusive supply agreement and benefit that five year period by the same amount of the restatement.
As a result of this restatement, fiscal 2004 quarterly earnings changed as follows:
| | First Quarter | | | Second Quarter | | | Third Quarter | | | Fourth Quarter | | | Year | |
Previously Reported | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net Earnings | | $ | 429,073 | | | $ | 592,969 | | | $ | 368,985 | | | $ | 315,195 | | | $ | 1,706,222 | |
Change | | | (228,189 | ) | | | (54,357 | ) | | | (73,965 | ) | | | 44,987 | | | | (311,524 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Restated Net Earnings | | $ | 200,884 | | | $ | 538,612 | | | $ | 295,020 | | | $ | 360,182 | | | $ | 1,394,698 | |
On March 29, 2005, registrant issued a press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
ITEM 8.01
OTHER EVENTS
Internal Control Considerations
DII management has determined that the restatement of quarterly results discussed above in Item 4.02 was not the result of a material weakness in internal controls that existed at the periods ended April 3, 2004, July 3, 2004, October 2, 2004 and January 1, 2005. The restatement was made at the request of the SEC based on their view of GAAP and how it applies to the acquisition and excess costs associated with the acquisition.
