BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although Schawk, Inc. (the Company) believes the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In addition, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected and are of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the three years ended December 31, 2004, as filed with its 2004 annual report on Form 10-K. NOTE 2. INTERIM RESULTS Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. NOTE 3.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company has an Equity Option Plan that provides for the granting of options to purchase up to 5,252 shares of Class A common stock to key employees. The Company has also adopted an Outside Directors' Formula Stock Option Plan authorizing unlimited grants of options to purchase shares of Class A common stock to outside directors. Options granted under these plans have an exercise price equal to the market price of the underlying stock at the date of grant and are exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant and vest over a three-year period. The Company accounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the net income, as all options granted under these plans have an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation. 9 Three Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- 2005 2004 ---- ---- Net income, as reported $ 7,852 $ 6,621 Less: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects (859) (184) ---------- ---------- Net income, pro forma $ 6,993 $ 6,437 ========== ========== Earnings per share Basic $ 0.31 $ 0.31 Diluted $ 0.29 $ 0.30 Pro forma earnings per share Basic $ 0.27 $ 0.30 Diluted $ 0.26 $ 0.29 Six Months Ended June 30, ------------------------- 2005 2004 ---- ---- Net income, as reported $ 13,416 $ 10,248 Less: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects (989) (733) ---------- ---------- Net income, pro forma $ 12,427 $ 9,515 ========== ========== Earnings per share Basic $ 0.54 $ 0.48 Diluted $ 0.51 $ 0.46 Pro forma earnings per share Basic $ 0.50 $ 0.44 Diluted $ 0.47 $ 0.43 In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R) (revised December 2004), "Share- Based Payment", which is a revision of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." This statement requires that the fair value at the grant date resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Further, SFAS 123(R) requires entities to apply a fair-value based measurement method in accounting for these transactions. This value is recorded over the vesting period. This statement is effective for the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS 123(R), and the impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations. 10 NOTE 9. ACQUISITIONS On January 31, 2005, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of the outstanding stock of Seven Worldwide Holdings, Inc., formerly known as KAGT Holdings, Inc. Seven Worldwide Holdings was the parent of Seven Worldwide, Inc, a graphics services company with operations in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. The results of operations of Seven Worldwide, Inc. for the periods April 1, 2005 through June 30, 2005 and February 1 through June 30, 2005 are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, respectively. The acquisition resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the Company's financial statements because the purchase price reflects the complimentary strategic fit that the acquired business brings to the Company's existing operations. The Company expects to realize significant operating synergies as a result of this acquisition through consolidation of duplicate facilities and reduced operating expenses. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible as an operating expense for tax purposes. The purchase price of $209,936 consisted of $135,566 paid in cash at closing, $3,850 of acquisition-related professional fees and the issuance of 4,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock with a value of $70,520, based on the average market price of the Company's common stock for the five day period beginning two business days before the execution of the acquisition agreement. Included in the purchase price were cash of $5,993 and 448 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, valued at $7,892, paid to the KAGT Holdings, Inc. Rabbi Trust, to be allocated to the subaccounts of certain stockholders and Seven Worldwide executives under the KAGT Holdings, Inc 2005 Deferred Compensation Plan. The assets of the Rabbi Trust were distributed to the participants in the KAGT Holdings, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan during the second quarter of 2005. The Company has recorded a preliminary purchase price allocation based upon a tangible and intangible asset appraisal that is in progress and will adjust the allocation as needed upon completion of the appraisal. A summary of the preliminary estimated fair values assigned to the acquired assets is as follows: Trade accounts receivable $ 71,200 Inventory 20,004 Other current assets 4,972 Fixed assets 53,076 Intangible assets, principally customer relationships 44,157 Goodwill 137,657 Other assets 1,522 Accounts payable (19,093) Other current liabilities (61,705) Income taxes payable (16,445) Long term debt and capital lease obligations (50) Deferred income taxes (14,194) Other liabilities (17,325) -------- Total purchase price, net of $6,160 cash received $203,776 The weighted-average amortization period of the intangible assets, principally customer relationships, is 13.9 years. The intangible asset amortization expense was $832 and $1,678 for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, respectively, and will be approximately $4,000 annually for the twelve month periods ending June 30, 2006 and 2007, approximately $3,400 for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2008 and approximately $2,600 for the twelve month periods ending June 30, 2009 and 2010. The Company expects significant synergies and reduced operating expenses from the consolidation of duplicate facilities acquired in this acquisition and began work on a consolidation plan before the acquisition was finalized. Based on the preliminary consolidation plan, the Company recorded an estimated restructuring reserve at January 31, 2005 in the amount of $11,790. The major expenses included in the restructuring reserve are employee severance and lease termination expenses. The Company expects that most of the facility consolidations included in this plan will be initiated in the second half of 2005 and will adjust the restructuring reserve as better information becomes available. The reserve was recorded as an increase to Goodwill and Accrued expenses. The following table summarizes the reserve recorded at January 31, 2005 and the activity through June 30, 2005: 11 Balance Balance Balance Jan 30, Mar 31, June 30, 2005 Payments 2005 Additions Payments 2005 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Employee severance $ 7,075 ($1,729) $ 5,346 $ 583 ($1,318) $ 4,611 Lease termination 1,861 (62) 1,799 1,427 (348) 2,878 Other 2,854 (180) 2,674 (1,612) (166) 896 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $11,790 ($1,971) $ 9,819 $ 398 ($1,832) $ 8,385 ====================================================================== The Company has reviewed the tax history with respect to its acquisition of KAGT Holdings and its Seven Worldwide, Inc. subsidiary and has accrued additional tax liabilities through purchase accounting for certain tax implications of the prior acquisition of Seven Worldwide, Inc. by the prior owner. The Company is a party to an indemnity provision in the Stock Purchase Agreement which may allow for a recovery of some or all of these liabilities if and when a final determination is made. The following table presents the unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004. The unaudited pro forma financial information summarizes the results of operations for the periods indicated as if the KAGT Holdings, Inc. acquisition had occurred at the beginning of each period. The pro forma information contains the actual combined operating results of Schawk Inc. and Seven Worldwide, Inc., with the results prior to the acquisition adjusted to include the pro forma impact of: 1) elimination of Seven Worldwide interest expense and deferred financing cost amortization related to bank debt retired at acquisition, offset by pro forma interest expense on Schawk Inc. bank debt and private placement financing used to fund the acquisition, 2) elimination of redundant Seven Worldwide senior management not retained post-acquisition, and 3) proforma adjustment of depreciation and intangible asset amortization based on estimated fair values of the Seven Worldwide assets used in the Company's June 30, 2005 financial statements. The Seven Worldwide results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 have been restated to eliminate discontinued operations of a division of the company divested in mid 2004.

The purchase price allocation for this acquisition has not been finalized. The Company will adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation upon the completion of the tangible and intangible asset appraisal that is in process. During the 2nd quarter, the Company recorded an increase to the purchase price of this acquisition in the amount of $497, principally for additional acquisition-related professional fees. In connection with its acquisition of the assets of Weir Holdings Limited (Winnetts) on December 31, 2004, the Company established a restructuring reserve, primarily for employee severance and lease abandonment expenses, in the amount of $2,500. The following table summarizes the activity in the reserve for the first six months of 2005: 12 Balance Balance Balance Dec 31, Mar 31, June 30, 2004 Payments 2005 Payments 2005 ------------------------------------------------ Employee severance $1,254 -- $1,254 ($ 198) $1,056 Lease termination 837 -- 837 -- 837 Other 409 -- 409 (53) 356 ------------------------------------------------ Total $2,500 -- $2,500 ($ 251) $2,249 ================================================ One of the highest priorities of the Company during the first half of 2005 has been the integration of the Seven Worldwide and Winnetts acquisitions into the Company's combined operations. This has involved planning and executing the consolidation of duplicate facilities in locations served by separate facilities of the pre-acquisition businesses as well as elimination of duplicate administrative functions. During the second quarter, the Company recorded Acquisition integration expenses of $2,072 which are shown as a separate line in the operating expense section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005. The major items included in this expense are severance pay for employees at legacy Schawk Inc facilities that have been merged with operations of the acquired businesses, retention pay for key employees whose services were necessary during a transition period, travel expenses related to the planning and execution of facility consolidations, and professional fees for accounting, human resource, and integration planning advice. NOTE 10. DEBT In connection with the Company's financing of the Seven Worldwide acquisition, the Company entered into a credit agreement dated January 28, 2005 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The credit agreement provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility of $100,000, expandable to $125,000, with interest at LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company's cash flow leverage ratio. On April 15, 2005, the accordion feature of the agreement was utilized to increase the revolving credit commitment to $115,000. $97,400 was outstanding under this agreement at June 30, 2005 and is included in Long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Also on January 28, 2005, the Company entered into a Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement with Prudential Investment Management Inc, pursuant to which the Company sold $50,000 in a series of three Senior Notes. The first note, in the amount of $10,000, will mature in 2010 and bears interest at 4.81%. The second and third notes, each in the amount of $20,000, mature in 2011 and 2012, respectively, and bear interest at the rate of 4.99% and 5.17%, respectively. The total of these notes, $50,000, is included in Long-term debt on the June 30, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet. The borrowings under both agreements are subject to certain restrictive covenants. The Company is in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2005. On February 1, 2005, the Company executed an unsecured Line of Credit Note for $10,000 with a due date of May 31, 2005 and interest at the prime rate. The note was paid in full when the Company expanded its unsecured revolving credit facility to $115,000 on April 15, 2005. 13 NOTE 11.

The Company intends any such statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1999. Although the Company believes that the assumptions upon which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, it can give no assurance the assumptions will prove to have been correct and undue reliance should not be placed as such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from the Company's expectations and beliefs include, among other things, higher than expected costs or unanticipated difficulties associated with integrating the acquired operations of Winnetts and Seven Worldwide, higher than expected costs associated with compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the strength of the United States economy in general and specifically market conditions for the consumer products industry, the level of demand for the Company's services, loss of key management and operational personnel, the ability of the Company to implement its growth strategy, the stability of state, federal and foreign tax laws, the ability of the Company to identify and exploit industry trends and to exploit technological advances in the imaging industry, ability to implement restructuring plans, the stability of political conditions in Asia and other countries in which the Company has production capabilities, terrorist attacks, wars, diseases and other geo-political events as well as other factors detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any of these statements in light of future events. EXECUTIVE-LEVEL OVERVIEW The Company grew substantially in the first half of 2005 as a result of two important acquisitions. The Company's annual revenue is expected to reach $625,000 - $635,000 in 2005 as compared to $238,000 in 2004 with most of the growth attributable to the two acquisitions, Weir Holdings, Inc. (trade name "Winnetts") on December 31, 2004 and Seven Worldwide, Inc. (Seven Worldwide) on January 31, 2005. A majority of the Company's revenues are driven by marketing and advertising spending by consumer products companies and retailers. The markets served are consumer products manufacturers and pharmaceutical, entertainment, retail and publishing companies. All of the company's business involves producing graphic images for various applications. Generally, a graphic image is created by the Company or a third party and then the Company manipulates that image to enhance the color of the image and to prepare it for print. The applications vary from consumer product packaging, including food and beverage packaging images, to retail advertisements in newspapers, including free standing inserts (FSI's), magazine ads, publications, catalogs and textbooks. The graphics process is generally the same regardless of the application. The following steps in the graphics process must take place to produce a final image: - Planning and Messaging - Strategic Design - Content Creation - File Building - Retouching - Art Production - Pre-Media The Company's involvement in a client project may involve many of the above steps or just one of the steps, depending on the client's needs. The Company has 61 operating locations globally that produce graphic images for clients. While providing a variety of services from location to location, the Company's operations are similar to one another in that regardless of the client assignment, graphic artists produce the work in an office environment by applying specialized techniques and using standard graphics software and computers. Many locations produce graphic images for more than one market. 15 Each client assignment, or "job", is a custom job in that the image being produced is unique, even if it only involves a small change from an existing image, such as adding a "low fat" banner on a food package. Essentially, change equals revenue. The Company is paid for its graphic imaging work based on time and materials, not based on the success or failure of the food product, the promotion or the ad campaign. For the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company increased sales by 146.1% over the second quarter of 2004. The revenue growth was primarily a result of the Winnetts and Seven Worldwide acquisitions. The Company's gross profit and operating income increased in the second quarter of 2005 as a result of the acquisitions. The gross margin and operating margin percentages decreased in the second quarter of 2005 relative to the second quarter of 2004 as a result of lower margin business from the acquired companies. Net income increased to $7,852 from $6,621 quarter over quarter. Second quarter earnings per share were 29 cents, fully diluted, compared to the prior year second quarter earnings per share of 30 cents. The Company's sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 were 148.3% higher than the first half of 2004, with the increase attributable to the two acquisitions. The lower margin business from the acquisitions resulted in gross margin and operating margin percentages that were lower in the first half of 2005 compared to the first half of 2004. Net income increased 30.9%, from $10,248 for the first six months of 2004 to $13,416 for the first six months of 2005. Earnings per share for the first half of 2005 were 51 cents, fully diluted, compared to 46 cents, fully diluted, in the first half of 2004. As previously disclosed, on January 31, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Seven Worldwide, a $370 million in revenue graphic services company with operations in 40 locations in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia. The purchase price of $209,936 consisted of $135,566 paid in cash at closing, $3,850 of acquisition-related professional fees and the issuance of 4,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock with a value of $70,520. The Company expects significant synergies and reduced operating expenses from the consolidation of duplicate facilities acquired in this acquisition and began work on a consolidation plan before the acquisition was finalized. The Company has recorded an estimated restructuring reserve based on the preliminary consolidation plan. The major expenses included in the restructuring reserve are severance pay for employees of acquired facilities that will be merged with existing operations and lease termination expenses. In addition, during the second quarter, the Company recorded Acquisition integration expenses of $2,072 which are shown as a separate line in the operating expense section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005. The major items included in this expense are severance pay for employees at legacy Schawk Inc facilities that have been merged with operations of the acquired businesses, retention pay for key employees whose services were necessary during a transition period, travel expenses related to the planning and execution of facility consolidations, and professional fees for accounting, human resource, and integration planning advice. In connection with the Company's financing of the Seven Worldwide acquisition, the Company entered into a credit agreement dated January 28, 2005 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The credit agreement provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility of $100,000, which was expanded to $115,000 on April 15, 2005. Also on January 28, 2005, the Company entered into a Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement with Prudential Investment Management Inc, pursuant to which the Company sold $50,000 in a series of three Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2005 there was $179,022 of debt outstanding of which $172,411 was considered long-term. 16 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 (Thousands of dollars, except per share amounts) Schawk, Inc.

The increase is primarily due to the acquisitions of Winnetts and Seven Worldwide. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2005 decreased to 34.7% from 42.6% for the second quarter of 2004, primarily due to lower margin business from the Seven Worldwide and Winnetts acquisitions. Operating income for the second quarter of 2005 increased 31.4% to $14.5 million compared to $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2004. The increase is primarily due to the additional operating income from the acquired companies. The operating margin percentage decreased to 9.1% in the second quarter of 2005 compared to 17.1% in the second quarter of 2004, primarily due to lower margin business from the Seven Worldwide and Winnetts acquisitions. Interest expense of $2.5 million for the second quarter of 2005 increased $2.0 million compared to the same period in 2004. The increase is due to additional indebtedness incurred during the first half of 2005 in connection with the Winnetts and Seven Worldwide acquisitions. Other income of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2005 represents the proceeds of a life insurance policy. 17 Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2005 was at an effective tax rate of 37.5% compared to a rate of 37.0% in the second quarter of 2004. The higher effective tax rate in 2005 was attributable to increased profits in higher tax jurisdictions as compared to the prior year. It is anticipated that the effective tax rate for 2005 will be in the range of 37.0% to 38.0%. Net income was higher in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the second quarter of 2004 for the reasons previously described.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $14,641 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents, compared to $7,268 at December 31, 2004. CASH PROVIDED BY (USED IN) OPERATING ACTIVITIES Cash provided by operations was $13,594 in the first six months of 2005 compared to cash provided by operations of $3,036 in the first six months of 2004. The increase in cash provided by operations was due in part to a decrease in trade accounts receivable during the second quarter of 2005 and reflects the Company's efforts to reduce outstanding accounts receivable at all operating units. Depreciation and amortization expense in the first six months of 2005 was $13,046 as compared to $6,805 in the first six months of the prior year. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is attributable to the additional property, plant and equipment and intangible assets acquired in the Seven Worldwide and Winnetts acquisitions. CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES Cash used in investing activities was $208,382 in the first six months of 2005 compared to $11,191 in the first six months of 2004. The increase in cash used in the first six months of 2005 reflects the acquisition of Seven Worldwide for $203,776. In the first six months of 2004, $6,843, including $1,600 of contingent purchase price paid to an escrow account, was used for acquisition of the assets of Virtualcolor. Capital expenditures were $7,470 in the first six months of 2005 compared to $4,435 in the first six months of 2004. The increase in capital expenditures in 2005 is primarily due to the completion of the build-out of the new Toronto facility as well as capital expenditures at the newly acquired companies. Capital expenditures are anticipated to be in a range of $15,000 to $18,000 for all of 2005. CASH PROVIDED BY FINANCING ACTIVITIES Cash provided by financing activities was $202,745 for the first six months of 2005 compared to $10,362 in the first six months of 2004. The cash provided by financing activities in the first quarter of 2005 includes $142,030 of proceeds from new debt and $70,520 of common stock issued to finance the Seven Worldwide acquisition. Dividend payments on common stock were $1,668 for the first six months of 2005 compared to $1,389 in the first six of 2004. It is anticipated that the Company will continue to pay dividends at the current level for the remainder of 2005. In January 2005, the Company entered into a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The agreement provides for a five year unsecured revolving credit facility of $100,000, expandable to $125,000, with interest at LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company's cash flow leverage ratio. This credit agreement replaced a $30,000 unsecured credit agreement previously in place. $97,400 was outstanding under the new agreement at June 30, 2005 and is included in Long-term debt on the June 30, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet. On April 15, 2005, the accordion feature of the credit agreement was utilized to increase the size of the revolving credit commitment to $115 million from $100 million to provide additional flexibility to the Company Also in January 2005, the Company entered into a Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement with Prudential Investment Management Inc, pursuant to which the Company sold $50,000 in a series of three Senior Notes. The first note, in the amount of $10,000, will mature in 2010 and bears interest at 4.81%. The second and third notes, each in the amount of $20,000, mature in 2011 and 2012, respectively, and bear interest at the rate of 4.99% and 5.17%, respectively. The total of these notes, $50,000, is included in Long-term debt on the June 30, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet. 19 The Company executed an unsecured Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. on February 1, 2005 for $10,000 with a due date of May 31, 2005 and interest at the prime rate. The Line of Credit Note was paid in full when the unsecured revolving credit agreement was expanded to $115 million on April 15, 2005. In December of 2003, the Company entered into a private placement of debt to provide long-term financing. The terms of the Note Purchase Agreement relating to this transaction provided for the issuance and sale by the Company, pursuant to an exception from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, of two series of notes: 1) Tranche A, due December 31, 2013, for $15,000, which closed in December 2003; and, 2) Tranche B, due April 30, 2014, for $10,000, which closed in April 2004. The total debt of $25,000 issued under the private placement agreement is shown as Long Term Debt on the June 30, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet. Management believes that the level of working capital is adequate for the Company's liquidity needs related to normal operations both currently and in the foreseeable future, and that the Company has sufficient resources to support its growth, either through currently available cash and cash generated from future operations, or pursuant to its revolving credit facility. SEASONALITY With the acquisitions of Winnetts and Seven Worldwide, the seasonal fluctuations in business on a combined basis generally result in lower revenues in the first quarter as compared to the rest of the year ended December 31. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK A discussion regarding market risk is disclosed in the Company's December 31, 2004 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in information regarding market risk relating to the Company's business on a consolidated basis since December 31, 2004. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that it is able to collect the information it is required to disclose in the reports it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and to process, summarize and disclose this information within the time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. Based on an evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report conducted by the Company's management, with the participation of the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers believe that these controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the Company is able to collect, process and disclose the information it is required to disclose in the reports it files with the SEC within the required time periods. In order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Section 404"), beginning with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005, the Company will be required to furnish a report of management as to the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and a report by the Company's independent auditors addressing management's assessment. The Company is in the process of documenting and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control procedures. These assessments, which have been underway for more than a year and are not yet complete, have been impacted by the Company's recent growth related to the Winnetts and Seven Worldwide acquisitions. Since December 31, 2004, the Company has grown from approximately 30 operating locations to approximately 61 combined operating locations worldwide, with varied policies, procedures, systems, personnel and internal control procedures which are still in the process of being integrated. In connection with its assessment, management has identified and communicated to the Company's Audit Committee and independent auditors the following deficiencies in the documentation, design and effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting that the Company is in the process of remediating: 20 Inadequate general computer controls primarily relating to a lack of segregation of duties surrounding (i) financial systems and information technology infrastructure change controls; and (ii) user access rights to certain financial systems at multiple global locations; and Primarily as a result of the recently completed Winnetts and Seven Worldwide acquisitions, lack of (i) documented, comprehensive, standardized policies and procedures for the combined global company; and (ii) sufficient documentation over the financial statement closing process, combined with key employee turnover and redundant staffing levels. Although management believes it has made significant progress in these areas, there is a significant risk that remediation and testing of these deficiencies may not be completed on a timely basis. It is also possible that the Company could experience further delays in its Section 404 compliance efforts or identify deficiencies in addition to those discussed above. If the Company is unable to complete Section 404 compliance efforts and/or its remediation and testing process in a timely manner, management may be required to conclude that its internal control over financial reporting is not effective as of December 31, 2005. Because the Company has not completed its evaluation of the deficiencies described above, it has not been able to determine whether the deficiencies described above or any as yet unidentified deficiencies constitute significant deficiencies, material weaknesses or aggregate to material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting. CHANGE IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING There were no other changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 21 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEMS 1, 3, AND 5 ARE NOT APPLICABLE AND HAVE BEEN OMITTED. ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE COMPANY As previously disclosed, the Company occasionally repurchases its common shares, pursuant to a general authorization from the Board of Directors, which is renewed annually.
