Crocs, Inc. Form 8-K Summary
Business Context and Reporting Period
Crocs, Inc. filed this Current Report on June 2, 2008, to announce a restatement of its previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The filing addresses errors in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows originally reported in the Form 10-Q filed on May 12, 2008.
Key Financial Metrics and Restatement Details
The restatement does not impact the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets or Statements of Operations. It specifically corrects the presentation of cash flows. Key adjustments include:
- Operating Activities: Net cash used in operating activities decreased by approximately $10.6 million (from $42.7 million to $32.1 million) due to reclassifying asset impairment charges related to Canadian manufacturing closures from investing to operating activities.
- Investing Activities: Net cash used in investing activities increased by approximately $10.1 million (from $4.0 million to $14.1 million) to reflect the reclassification of the aforementioned impairment charges.
- Financing Activities: Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $24,000 due to corrections in proceeds from notes payable and payments on long-term debt.
- Foreign Exchange: An error in exchange rates resulted in an increase to the effects of exchange rate changes on cash of $393,000.
- Net Cash Position: The net change in cash and cash equivalents for the period remains unchanged at a decrease of $6.7 million.
Material Changes and Internal Controls
The primary material change is the reclassification of cash flow line items. Management concluded that the errors indicate a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting, specifically regarding the preparation and review of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Consequently, the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures in the May 12, 2008 Form 10-Q must be revised.
Outlook and Management Commentary
Management and the Audit Committee have discussed these matters with the independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP. The Company intends to file a Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, to reflect the restatement and internal control matters. The filing explicitly states that the previously issued Form 10-Q should no longer be relied upon.
