PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
As reported on March 1, 2016, on February 24, 2016 the audit and finance committee of the board of directors of Itron, Inc. (the “Company”) and management of the Company concluded that the Company had not been able to demonstrate Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (VSOE) of fair value for maintenance contracts associated with certain software solutions for the year ended December 31, 2015. As a result, it was unable to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2015 (“2015 Form 10-K”). The Company subsequently completed the VSOE analysis for previous years and revised the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the first three quarters of 2015 and filed the 2015 Form 10-K on June 30, 2016.
The Company has not completed the additional VSOE analysis to quantify and record the software revenue and cost adjustments necessary for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016. As a result, the Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on From 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 ("March 31, 2016 Form 10-Q") and will be unable to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2016 ("June 30, 2016 Form 10-Q"). The Company does not expect to file the June 30, 2016 Form 10-Q within the five day extension period offered by Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, but does intend to file the March 31, 2016 Form 10-Q and June 30, 2016 Form 10-Q as soon as practicable, and no later than September 12, 2016.
This notice contains certain forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and information relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs of the management of the Company at the time the statements are made. These forward looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including the risk that the additional analysis described above may be delayed, or may result in further adjustments to the financial statements and results of operations. Should one of these risks or uncertainties materialize actual results or outcomes may vary materially from those described as anticipated, believed, estimated, intended, or planned.
