Explanatory note:

 

This Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Averion International Corp on November 6, 2007 (the “original filing”), for the purpose of providing the additional unaudited financial information described in Item 9.01 hereof and included as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, and 99.3 attached hereto.

 

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

(a) Financial statements of businesses acquired.

 

The unaudited financial statements  of Hesperion AG as of and for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2006, and 2005, and the unaudited financials as of and for the nine months ended  September 30, 2007, are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated in their entirety herein by reference. Information regarding the audited consolidated financial results for the first full year of operations of the combined companies is included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2009.  The cost of performing an audit and receiving the related audit opinion on these financial statements from an independent registered public accounting firm on the Hesperion AG financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, and 2006 was not practicable or economically justified under the circumstances in connection with the timing of this filing on Form 8-K/A.

 

(b) Pro forma financial information.

 

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the nine months ended  September 30, 2007 and 2006 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and are incorporated in their entirety by reference.

2.                                       99.2         Unaudited financial statements of Hesperion AG for the period ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
