NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Peet’s Coffee & Tea, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Peet’s”) as of April 2, 2006 and for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods. The financial information as of January 1, 2006, is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2006 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis and notes to the financial statements in the Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective January 2, 2006, the beginning of the Company’s first fiscal quarter of 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the consolidated financial statements for granted, modified, or settled stock options and for expense related to the ESPP, since the related purchase discounts exceeded the amount allowed under SFAS 123(R) for non-compensatory treatment. Compensation expense recognized included the estimated expense for stock options granted on and subsequent to January 2, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R), and the estimated compensation expense for the portion vesting in the period for options granted prior to, but not vested as of January 2, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original disclosure provisions of SFAS 123. Results for prior periods have not been restated, as provided for under the modified-prospective method.
Total stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of income for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2006 was $1,029,000 before income taxes and consisted of stock option and ESPP expense of $958,000 and $71,000 respectively. The related total tax benefit was $394,000 for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2006. Stock-based compensation expense was recognized as follows in the statement of income (in thousands):
Cost of sales and related occupancy expenses | | $ | 137 | |
Operating expenses | | | 347 | |
General and administrative expenses | | | 545 | |
Total | | $ | 1,029 | |
The net effect of the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on net income was $659,000, $0.05 per basic share and $0.05 per diluted share. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) resulted in a decrease of cash flows from operations and an increase in cash flows from financing activities of $3,000.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company presented all tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash inflows in the consolidated statements of cash flows, in accordance with the provisions of the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No 00-15, “Classification in the Statement of Cash Flows of the Income Tax Benefit Received by a Company upon Exercise of a Nonqualified Employee Stock Option.” SFAS 123(R) requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options to be classified as financing cash inflows rather than operating cash inflows, on a prospective basis. This amount is shown as “Excess tax benefit from exercise of stock options” on the consolidated statement of cash flows.
The following table shows the effect on net earnings and earnings per share had compensation cost been recognized based upon the estimated fair value on the grant date of stock options and Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) awards for the thirteen weeks ended April 3, 2005 (in thousands, except earnings per share):
| | April 3, 2005 | |
| | | |
Net income - as reported | | $ | 2,428 | |
Stock-based employee compensation included in reported net income, net of tax | | | 4 | |
Stock-based compensation expense determined under fair value based method, net of tax | | | (762 | ) |
Net income - pro forma | | $ | 1,670 | |
| | | | |
Basic net income per share - as reported | | $ | 0.18 | |
Basic net income per share - pro forma | | $ | 0.12 | |
| | | | |
Diluted net income per share - as reported | | $ | 0.17 | |
Diluted net income per share - pro forma | | $ | 0.12 | |
The fair value of each option grant and ESPP award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| | Stock Options | | ESPP | |
13 Weeks Ended | | | | | | April 2, 2006 | | | |
Expected term (in years) | | | 6.3 | | | 4.6 | | | 0.5 | | | 0.5 | |
Expected stock price volatility | | | 29.7 | % | | 42.4 | % | | 26.8 | % | | 23.1 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 4.9 | % | | 4.1 | % | | 4.7 | % | | 2.6 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | | 0.0 | % | | 0.0 | % | | 0.0 | % | | 0.0 | % |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Estimated fair value per option granted | | $ | 11.93 | | $ | 9.75 | | $ | 6.97 | | $ | 5.77 | |
The expected term of the options represents the estimated period of time from date of option grant until exercise and for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2006, is calculated using the simplified method under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14.D.2, “Expected Term” (SAB 107). Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the expected term was based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. Expected stock price volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent term. The Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not plan to pay dividends in the near future.
The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, particularly for the expected term and expected stock price volatility. The Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. Because Company stock options do not trade on a secondary exchange, employees do not derive a benefit from holding stock options unless there is an increase, above the grant price, in the market price of the Company’s stock. Such an increase in stock price would benefit all shareholders commensurately.
Comprehensive Income
For the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005, comprehensive income was $2,339,000 and $2,390,000, respectively. Comprehensive income consists of net income and net unrealized gains and losses on investments.
Net Income per Share
Basic net income per share is computed as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issued through stock options. Anti-dilutive shares of 310,318 and 59,339 have been excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the thirteen week periods ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005, respectively.
The number of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options was calculated by applying the treasury stock method. The following table summarizes the differences between basic weighted average shares outstanding and diluted weighted average shares outstanding used to compute diluted net income per share (in thousands):
| | Thirteen weeks ended | |
| | April 2, 2006 | | April 3, 2005 | |
| | | | | |
Basic weighted average shares outstanding | | | 13,892 | | | 13,564 | |
Incremental shares from assumed exercise of stock options | | | 717 | | | 605 | |
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding | | | 14,609 | | | 14,169 | |
The Company’s inventories consist of the following (in thousands):
| | | | | |
Green coffee | | $ | 8,114 | | $ | 9,958 | |
Finished goods and other | | | 6,640 | | | 6,190 | |
Total | | $ | 14,754 | | $ | 16,148 | |
The Company’s short and long-term marketable securities balances include U.S. government, agency, municipal and guaranteed student loan obligations, and are classified as available-for-sale. Gross unrealized holding losses at April 2, 2006 are due to fluctuations in interest rates and are considered temporary impairments as management has the intent and ability to hold the securities to recovery.
In February 2004, the Board of Directors approved the purchase of up to one million shares of the Company’s common stock, with no expiration. During the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006, the Company purchased and retired 124,800 shares of common stock, at an average price of $29.61 in accordance with the share purchase program.
6. | Stock Option and Employee Stock Purchase Plans |
Stock Option Plans
The Company maintains several stock equity incentive plans under which it may currently grant non-qualified stock options to employees and non-employee directors.
Prior to the January 2, 2006 adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), the Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, because the stock option grant price equaled the market price on the date of grant, and any purchase discounts under the Company’s stock purchase plans were within statutory limits, no compensation expense was recognized by the Company for stock-based compensation. Through 2001, the Company granted options at 85% of fair value and recorded compensation expense equal to the intrinsic value over the vesting period. The term of a granted stock option is 10 years from the grant date. Stock options vest according to a pre-determined vest schedule set at grant date.
The aggregate intrinsic value in the table below is before applicable income taxes, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $30.00 as of the last business day of the period ended April 2, 2006, which would have been received by the optionees had all options been exercised on that date. As of April 2, 2006, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to nonvested stock options was approximately $4.7 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 22 months. During the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2006, the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $795,000.
As of April 2, 2006, there were 377,264 shares available for grant under the 2000 stock option plan and 182,036 shares available for grant under the 2000 Non-Employee Director stock option plan. Changes in stock options were as follows:
| | Options Outstanding | | Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share | | Weighted Average RemainingContractual Life | | | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Outstanding, January 1, 2006 | | | 2,551,306 | | $ | 18.68 | | | | | | | |
Granted | | | 17,500 | | | 29.67 | | | | | | | |

The following table summarizes stock option information at April 2, 2006:
| | Options Outstanding | | Options Exercisable | |
| | Number of Options | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan where eligible employees can choose to have up to 15% of their annual earnings withheld to purchase the Company’s common stock. The purchase price of stock is 85% of the lower of the beginning of the offering period or end of the offering period market price. The Company authorized 200,000 shares of common stock available for issuance under the plan, which will be increased as of each annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders, beginning 2002 until 2020, by the least of 200,000 shares or 1.5% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on that date. However, the Board of Directors has the authority to designate a smaller number of shares by which the authorized number of shares of common stock will be increased on that date. During the period ended April 2, 2006, there were no shares purchased of the Company’s common stock under the plan. At April 2, 2006 640,742 shares remain available for future issuance.
The Company operates in two reportable segments: retail and specialty sales. Retail store operations consist of sales of whole bean coffee, beverages, tea and related products through Company-operated retail stores. Specialty sales consist of whole bean coffee sales through grocery, home delivery, food service and office coffee accounts. Management evaluates segment performance primarily based on revenue and segment operating income. The following table presents certain financial information for each segment. Segment operating income before taxes excludes unallocated marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses. Unallocated assets include cash, coffee inventory in the warehouse, corporate headquarter assets and intangible and other assets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. Except for historical information, the discussion in this report contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology, such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “forecast” and similar expressions (or the negative of such expressions.) Forward-looking statements include statements concerning projected new store openings, 2006 revenue growth rates and capital expenditures. Forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions based on information currently available to us, including financial and operational information, the volatility of our stock price, and current competitive conditions. As a result, these statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. For a discussion of material risks and uncertainties that the Company faces, see the discussion in the Annual Report on Form 10-K titled “Risk Factors” for the year ended January 1, 2006. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following:
| · | Increases in the cost and decreases in availability of high quality Arabica coffee beans: Although we do not purchase coffee on the commodity markets, price movements in the commodity trading of coffee impact the prices we pay. Coffee is a trade commodity and, in general, its price can fluctuate depending on: weather patterns in coffee-producing countries; economic and political conditions affecting coffee-producing countries; foreign currency fluctuations; the ability of coffee-producing countries to agree to export quotas; and general economic conditions that make commodities more or less attractive investment options. Over the past eighteen months, the commodity prices for coffee have risen above their historical range for the prior three to four years. If we are unable to pass along increased coffee costs, our margin will decrease and our profitability will suffer accordingly. In addition, if we are not able to purchase sufficient quantities of high quality Arabica beans due to any of the above factors, we may not be able to fulfill the demand for our coffee, our revenue may decrease and our ability to expand our business may also suffer. |
| · | A significant interruption in the operation of our one roasting facility: A significant interruption in the operation of our Emeryville, California roasting and distribution facility, whether as a result of a natural disaster or other causes, could significantly impair our ability to operate our business. Since we only roast our coffee to order, we do not carry inventory of roasted coffee in our roasting plant. Therefore, a disruption in the service of our roasting facility would impact our sales in our retail and specialty channels almost immediately. Moreover, our roasting and distribution facility and most of our stores are located near several major earthquake fault lines. The impact of a major earthquake on our facilities, infrastructure and overall operations is difficult to predict and an earthquake could seriously disrupt our entire business. Our earthquake insurance covers net income, continuing normal operating expenses and extra expenses incurred during the period of restoration. However, in the event of a catastrophic earthquake, our coverage is limited and we would incur additional expenses. |
Company Overview and Industry Outlook
Peet’s is a specialty coffee roaster and marketer of fresh, deep-roasted whole bean coffee sold through multiple channels of distribution for home and away-from-home enjoyment. Founded in Berkeley, California in 1966, Peet’s has established a loyal customer base with strong brand awareness in California. Our growth strategy is based on the sale of whole bean coffee and high-quality beverages in multiple channels of distribution including our own retail stores, grocery, home delivery, and office and restaurant accounts throughout the United States. Our current expansion strategy is focused in the western United States, where we have strong customer awareness, loyalty and brand affinity.
We expect the specialty coffee industry to continue to grow. We believe that this growth will be fueled by continued consumer interest in high quality coffee and related products. We believe that by offering high-quality products to consumers throughout the country, we will attract the same loyal customer base that we have attracted in California.
As we grow, our operations will continue to be vertically integrated, allowing us to control the quality of our product at all stages. We purchase high quality Arabica coffee beans from countries around the world, and we utilize our artisan-roasting technique to bring out the distinctive flavor of our coffees. Because roasted coffee is perishable, we are committed to delivering our coffee under the strictest freshness standards. As a result, we do not stock or inventory roasted coffee. We roast to order and ship fresh coffee daily to our stores and customers. Control of purchasing, roasting, packaging and distribution of our coffee allows us to maintain our commitment to freshness, is cost effective, and enhances our margins and profit potential.
We are forecasting revenue growth for 2006 in the 20 to 23 percent range over 2005 revenues. We expect to increase our revenues in 2006 through the continued growth in our specialty businesses, both in existing accounts and new accounts, and through growing our retail business, by opening 23 to 28 new stores and continuing to expand sales in existing stores. In addition, we expect to make investments in 2006 to improve our capability to sustain this growth over the foreseeable future, including capital expenditures for the remodeling of existing stores, equipment for the grocery channel, information technology enhancements and roasting plant equipment. We also plan to spend approximately $25.0 million on a new roasting facility and related improvements and equipment beginning in late 2006 and in the first quarter of 2007. We expect to open the roasting facility in 2007.

Thirteen Weeks Ended April 2, 2006 Compared to Thirteen Weeks Ended April 3, 2005
Net revenue
Net revenue for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006 increased 24.3% versus the same period in 2005 as a result of continued expansion of our retail and specialty sales segments. Sales of whole bean and related products increased 20.7% to $27.8 million. Sales from beverages and pastries increased 29.2% to $21.9 million.
In the retail segment, net revenue increased 22.4% compared to 2005 primarily as a result of increased sales from the 18 new stores we opened in the last 12 months and growth in the existing stores. Sales of whole bean coffee and related products in the retail segment increased by 10.9% to $11.8 million, while sales of beverages and pastries increased by 29.8% to $21.6 million. The increase in beverage and pastry sales was primarily related to sales at the stores we opened in 2004 and 2005 and increased traffic in our existing stores. The slower growth in whole bean and related products was due to continuing cannibalization of bean sales in retail stores as we increased the availability of Peet’s coffee in grocery stores and the lower mix of whole bean sales in our new stores. During the first quarter of 2006, we opened 2 new stores compared to 4 in 2005. We expect to open approximately 6 or 7 stores in the second quarter of 2006.
In the specialty sales segment, net revenue increased 28.4% compared to the thirteen weeks ended April 3, 2005. The $3.6 million increase consisted primarily of a $2.7 million increase in grocery sales, a $0.5 million increase in home delivery sales, and a $0.4 million increase in sales to food service and office accounts. The increase in grocery was primarily due to continued strong growth in our existing accounts, new accounts we added in the last 12 months, and a price increase in October 2005. Compared to last year, we added approximately 500 new stores over the past 12 months, bringing the number of grocery stores selling Peet’s coffee to approximately 4,000. In addition, to offset rising coffee and other operating costs, we increased our price to our grocery accounts by approximately 8-10% during October 2005. Net revenue to the home delivery channel grew 12.9% compared to the same period in 2005 as we continued to emphasize loyalty programs that reward customers who subscribe to our recurring order programs as well as highlighting special coffees like Lost Toraja and Peaberry Especial. In addition, food service and office coffee sales increased 11.5% primarily due to efforts in expanding our office distributorships.
Cost of sales and related occupancy expenses
Cost of sales and related occupancy expenses consist of product costs, including manufacturing costs, rent and other occupancy costs. As a percent of net revenue, cost of sales increased slightly from 45.2% in 2005 to 45.3% in 2006 due to higher green coffee costs and the impact of expensing stock-based compensation, partially offset by the price increase taken in our grocery channel. Higher coffee cost resulted in a 0.7% increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenue. We expect our coffee cost, which lags the commodity market price due to future commitments, to continue to increase for the remainder of 2006. In addition, stock-based compensation increased costs as a percentage of net revenue by 0.3%.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses as a percent of net revenue for the current quarter increased compared to 2005 primarily due to the opening of new stores and the impact of expensing stock options, partially offset by pricing and leverage gained in the specialty segment.
In the retail segment, operating expenses as a percent of net revenue increased by 2.8% to 42.7%. The increase was due to a 1.3% increase from opening new stores in the last two years and a 0.8% impact from stock-based compensation. The remaining increase was due to higher costs to support existing stores, both in the stores and above store management.
As a percent of net revenue, specialty operating expenses decreased 1.2% to 19.3%. The decrease was primarily due to the price increase taken in October 2005 in our grocery channel, which decreased expenses as a percent of net revenue by 1.0%. The remaining decrease was due to leveraging the relatively fixed operating structure in the grocery, foodservice, office and home delivery channels. This was partially offset by a 0.5% impact from stock-based compensation.
Marketing and advertising expenses
For 2006, marketing and advertising expenses increased $0.3 million compared to the same prior year period. The increase was driven primarily by costs to support the Company’s 40th Anniversary Celebration in all channels.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses in the current quarter were $3.6 million, or 7.3% of revenue, compared to $2.2 million, or 5.5% for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the 1.1%, or $0.5 million impact of stock-based compensation. The remaining increase as a percent of sales was due to recruiting costs.
Depreciation and amortization expenses
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased in 2006 primarily due to the 22 stores we opened in 2005 and 2006.
Investment income, net
We currently invest in U.S. government, agency, municipal and guaranteed student loan obligations. Investment income includes interest income and gains or losses from the sale of these instruments. We earned $0.7 million in interest income in the first quarter of 2006, compared to $0.3 million last year, primarily due to higher interest rates on our investments.
Income tax provision
The effective income tax rate for the period and projected for the full-year is 38.3% versus 39.9% during the first quarter 2005. The lower effective tax rate is due primarily to increased interest income from tax-exempt marketable securities during 2006 partially offset by a 0.5% increase in the rate due to the accounting for stock-based compensation. The rate was also higher during the first quarter 2005 than the full-year rate of 38.8% due to discrete true-up items during the period and a higher than anticipated deduction for qualified domestic production activities as part of the American Job Creations Act of 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At April 2, 2006, we had $29.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $40.3 million in short-term and long-term marketable securities for a total of $69.6 million. Working capital was $61.0 million as of April 2, 2006.
Net cash provided by operations was $6.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006 compared to $7.1 million for the same prior year period. Operating cash flows were lower than the prior year period primarily due to timing differences in working capital.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006. Investing activities primarily relate to purchases of property and equipment and maturities and purchases of marketable securities. During the first quarter of 2006, maturities net of purchases totaled $8.9 million as we held a greater amount of marketable securities classified as cash equivalents due to the relative yields.
Net cash used in financing activities was $2.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2006. Financing activities consisted primarily of $3.7 million for the Company’s purchase of its common stock, offset partially by the exercise of stock options by employees.
Our remaining 2006 capital expenditures are expected to be between $14.0 and $15.0 million, excluding investments that we may incur late in the year to purchase a new roasting facility. Approximately $8.0 to $10.0 million is expected to be used for the opening of the remaining new retail stores of the total 23 to 28 scheduled for 2006 and expenditures for new stores in progress for 2007. The remaining is expected to be used for the remodeling of existing stores, equipment for the grocery channel, information technology enhancements and roasting plant equipment. In addition, we plan to spend approximately $25.0 million on the new roasting facility and related improvements and equipment late in the year and in the first quarter of 2007.
For the next twelve months, we expect our cash flows from operations and cash and marketable securities to be sufficient for our operating and capital requirements, our share purchase program and our contractual obligations as they come due.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We invest excess cash in interest-bearing, U.S. government, agency, municipal and guaranteed student loan obligations. These financial instruments are all subject to fluctuations of daily interest rates. Therefore our investment portfolio is exposed to market risk from these changes.
The supply and price of coffee are subject to significant volatility and can be affected by multiple factors in the producing countries, including weather, political and economic conditions. In addition, green coffee bean prices have been affected in the past, and may be affected in the future, by the actions of certain organizations and associations that have historically attempted to influence commodity prices of green coffee beans through agreements establishing export quotas or restricting coffee supplies worldwide.
We currently use fixed-price purchase commitments, but in the past have used and may potentially in the future use coffee futures and coffee futures options to manage coffee supply and price risk.
Fixed-Price and Not-Yet-Priced Purchase Commitments
We enter into fixed-price purchase commitments in order to secure an adequate supply of quality green coffee beans and fix our cost of green coffee beans. These commitments are made with established coffee brokers and are denominated in U.S. dollars. We also enter into “not-yet-priced” commitments based on a fixed premium over the New York “C” market with the option to fix the price at any time. As of April 2, 2006, we had approximately $23.7 million in open fixed-priced purchase commitments and approximately $0.8 in not-yet-priced commitments for a total of approximately $24.5 million with delivery dates ranging from April 2006 through December 2007. We believe, based on relationships established with our suppliers, that the risk of non-delivery on such purchase commitments is low.
Coffee Futures and Futures Options
As of April 2, 2006, we held no coffee futures or futures options. We had no outstanding positions at April 2, 2006 or April 1, 2005. We do not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes.
Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2006 for a further summary of risks.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of April 2, 2006, the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable-assurance level.
There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
