Business Context and Reporting Period
Company: Key Tronic Corporation (KTCC)
Filing Type: Form 8-K (Current Report)
Date of Report: October 9, 2024
Subject: Non-reliance on previously issued financial statements and announcement of restatements for fiscal years ended July 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022, as well as interim periods in fiscal year 2024.
Key Financial Metrics and Accounting Errors
The filing does not provide specific revenue, profit, or cash flow figures for the current period. Instead, it details accounting errors and their projected impact:
- Accounting Error: Inconsistent recording of cost recovery of material price variances. Certain facilities recorded these as a reduction to cost of goods sold (COGS) rather than as revenue per company policy.
- Impact on Prior Statements: Errors resulted in an understatement of both revenue and COGS in fiscal year 2024 and prior periods.
- Projected Restatement Impact: The Company estimates the restatements will increase reported revenue and COGS but expects no impact on gross profit, net income, or earnings per share.
- Q4 FY2024 Adjustments: An estimated ($2.0) million aggregated adjustment affecting net income is identified for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024. This relates to capitalized costs in inventory, recovery of business interruption insurance, and estimated credit losses.
Material Changes and Restatements
The Audit Committee concluded that the following previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon and will be restated:
- Consolidated financial statements for fiscal years ended July 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022 (from Form 10-K).
- Unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for the first three quarters of fiscal years ended June 29, 2024, July 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022 (from Form 10-Q).
The review of these statements and Q4 FY2024 results is ongoing, and the Company may identify further required changes.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
Management Actions: The Company plans to include the restatements and Q4 adjustments in the 2024 Form 10-K, intended to be filed as soon as practicable. Discussions regarding these matters have been held with the independent auditor, Moss Adams LLP.
Key Risks and Uncertainties:
- Delisting Risk: Possibility that Nasdaq may delist the Company's common stock.
- Internal Controls: Risks related to the ability to implement and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting.
- Cybersecurity: Ongoing investigation into a cybersecurity incident, including risks of containment failure, improper use of exfiltrated information, and related litigation.
