Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements.
On April 9, 2009, our Board of Directors concluded that our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 should no longer be relied upon because of an error in such financial statements. Our audit committee discussed this matter with our independent accounts in conjunction with our Board decision. This error also affects our financial statements as of the interim periods for March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and September 30, 2008. These financial statements can no longer be relied upon. Notwithstanding the restatement, we feel confident that our controls and procedures are adequate as of all relevant reporting periods. The change in our financial statements was based upon a judgment call using experience which we could not have known prior to the end of 2008.
Specifically, we had an error in accounting for an allowance of our deferred tax asset. As of December 31, 2007, we recorded a deferred tax asset with no allowance. Originally, we determined that the weighted evidence presented did not support a conclusion to record an allowance against our deferred tax asset. After reviewing the evidence presented at that time and additional information gathered during the 2008 fiscal year, we decided that it would be a more conservative approach to record a full deferred tax allowance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. The recording of this full deferred tax allowance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 will change the interim financial statements for March 31, 2008, June 30, 2008, and September 30, 2008.
In addition, for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, we recognized a conversion expense for the conversion of convertible preferred equity and subordinated debt into restricted common shares and calculated the expense by applying a discount to market price of the stock to account for the large block of restricted stock issued and low volume with which our stock traded. When reviewing this methodology during our year end, we were unable to substantiate our methodology with specific guidance issued under GAAP. We therefore recalculated the conversion expense using the price of the last trade prior to the conversion for the value of the stock. We are including this more conservative expense amount in our financials for the year ended December 31, 2008 as well as our restated interim financial statements for June 30, 2008 and September 30, 2008.
We plan to file the restated financial statements with our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 no later than April 15, 2009.
