Investor Verification Checklist
- Review Exhibit 99.1 (Press Release dated April 24, 2007) for specific dollar amounts of the accounting corrections.
- Verify the impact of the corrections on previously reported earnings per share (EPS) for 2005 and the nine months ended October 1, 2006.
- Confirm whether the accounting errors indicate broader internal control weaknesses at the Moorpark facility or elsewhere in the organization.
- Check for any subsequent filings (e.g., Form 10-K/A or 10-Q/A) that formally restate the financial statements for the affected periods.
