UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, DC 20549 FORM 10-Q/A QUARTERLY REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 For the quarterly period ended September 30, 1998 Commission File Number: 0-22071 OVERLAND DATA, INC. (Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) California 95-3535285 (State or other jurisdiction (IRS Employer of incorporation) Identification No.) 8975 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, California 92123-1599 (Address of principal executive offices, including zip code) (619) 571-5555 (Registrant's telephone number, including area code) Indicate by check mark whether the registrant (1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days. Yes /X/ No As of November 6, 1998 there were 10,099,755 shares of the registrant's common stock, no par value, issued and outstanding. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Many computer systems experience problems handling dates in and beyond the year 1999. Therefore, some computer hardware and software will need to be modified prior to the year 2000 in order to remain functional. During fiscal year 1998, the Company replaced its internal enterprise wide computer system and believes that the system is year 2000 compliant. The Company's internally manufactured products have no date functionality built into them with the exception of certain products have a display-only date/time function. This function, which is year 2000 compliant, allows the operator to set the LCD front panel display date and time from the front panel. Although not used in any way when reading/writing data or to otherwise operate the products, it is used for date/time stamping entries into the internal history and error logs. The Company is also assessing and addressing the possible effects on the Company's operations of the year 2000 readiness of its other internal systems and of its key suppliers and subcontractors. If the Company's suppliers and subcontractors fail to address their year 2000 issues, the Company could experience an adverse material impact on its business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company's smaller vendors present the largest risks because the Company believes that these vendors may not address the year 2000 issues adequately. If a vendor is deemed to be high risk for year 2000 issues, the Company will pursue alternative sources of suppliers because an inability to supply parts may delay production of the Company's products. To date, the Company has incurred an immaterial amount of costs of less than $20,000. The potential impact and related costs of year 2000 readiness for both the remaining internal systems and key suppliers and subcontractors are still unknown at this time. However, based on assessment underway, the Company currently expects that the total cost of addressing the year 2000 issue will remain an immaterial amount. The Company does not know how customer spending patterns may be impacted by year 2000 programs. As customers focus on preparing their business for the year 2000 in the near term, capital budgets may be spent on remediation efforts, potentially delaying the purchase and implementation of new systems, thereby creating less demand for the Company's products and services. Conversely, demand for the Company's products could accelerate as customers focus on the need to protect their stored data by enhancing their backup capabilities. The Company does not know the resulting impact on its revenues at this time. 2 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
