On August 5, 2005, the Company announced that it is restating its financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 30, 2004 and for the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 as a result of accounting errors related to inventory build-up and relief and inadequate reconciliation of intercompany accounts.  The Company’s financial statements will also be adjusted to reflect the disposition of the Company’s Korea subsidiary as discontinued operations.  The Company intends to file an amendment to its Form 10-K for the year ended May 30, 2004 and an amendment to Form 10-Q’s for the quarters ended August 29, 2004, November 28, 2004 and February 27, 2005 to reflect the restatements indicated above.  The Company intends to make these amended filings during the first week of October.  The Company also plans to file its Form 10-K for the year ended May 30, 2005 about the same time.

 

The Company is also furnishing as Exhibit 99.1 to this Amendment No.1 a schedule showing adjustments to major components of the Company’s financial statements for the discontinued operations in the periods affected.  The Company is also furnishing as Exhibit 99.2 to this Amendment No. 1 a schedule showing adjustments to major components of the Company’s financial statements for the restatements due to accounting errors in the periods affected.
