ITEM 12. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
This information set forth under "Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial
Condition," including the Exhibits attached hereto, shall not be deemed "filed"
for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor
shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities
Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation
language in such filing.
On May 6, Travis Boats & Motors, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release for
its second quarter of fiscal 2003 and the six month period ended March 31, 2003
and provided an update on several key initiatives on operations and financing.
Similar press releases covering the third quarter of fiscal 2003 and the nine
month period ended June 30, 2003, and the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended
September 30, 2003, were issued August 4, 2003 and December 2, 2003,
respectively (the May 6, 2003, August 4, 2003, and December 2, 2003 press
releases, collectively, are referred to as the "Press Releases"). In addition,
the Company conducted conference calls on May 10, 2003, August 4, 2003, and
December 4, 2003 (the "Conference Calls") to discuss its results for its second,
third and fourth quarter results, respectively, and to provide an update on the
status of key business initiatives.
The SEC recently amended Form 8-K to add a new Item 12, "Disclosure of Results
of Operations and Financial Condition", that requires public companies to
furnish to the SEC a Form 8-K within five business days of any public
announcement or release disclosing material non-public financial information
about a completed annual or quarterly fiscal period. New Item 12 of Form 8-K
applies to earnings announcements and releases made on or after March 28, 2003.
Copies of the Press Releases and announcements of Conference Calls we made
available immediately on the Company's web site, at http://www.travisboats.com,
under "Investor Relations." In addition, recordings of the Conference Calls were
available for three days following their original delivery. However, the Company
did not file Form 8-Ks relating to its second, third and fourth quarter earnings
announcements within five days of their release, as required by new Item 12 of
Form 8-K. In an effort to address this, the Company has now filed copies of the
Press Releases as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3 hereto. Furthermore, the Company
is taking steps to include either transcripts and/or audio recordings of the
Conference Calls on its web site. However, note that all previously material,
nonpublic information contained in the Conference Calls is set forth in the
Press Releases, and covered in detail in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2003, to be filed tomorrow, January 12, 2004.
