Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
On November 28, 2011, Tellabs, Inc. (Tellabs) determined that $17.5 million of revenue recognized in the quarter ended July 1, 2011, should have instead been recognized in the quarter ended September 30, 2011, as more fully described below. As a result, we have concluded that the previously issued interim financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q as of and for the quarters ended July 1, 2011, and September 30, 201l, should no longer be relied upon. We will restate our interim consolidated financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2011 through the filing of amendments to our previously filed Forms 10-Q.
In the second quarter of 2011, we had recognized $15.3 million of revenue related to a project with a customer outside North America. The related products were accepted by the customer and title passed to the customer in the second quarter. However, we recently discovered that these products had been shipped to a temporary, third-party storage location, arranged by our local office to accommodate delivery. While $2.6 million of these products were delivered from the third-party warehouse to the customer by the end of the second quarter, the balance of these products were not delivered from the third-party warehouse to the customer until July 20, 2011. Consequently, we have concluded that revenue for the undelivered products as of the end of the second quarter should have been recognized in the third quarter. The effects of this adjustment, together with other immaterial adjustments, are included in the tables below.
We are in the process of amending Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for each of the quarters ended July 1, 2011, and September 30, 2011. We intend to file the amended reports as promptly as practicable.
The restatement is expected to change the following line items in our Statements of Operations:
