Force Protection Announces Delay in 2007 Form 10-K and Required Restatement of Form 10-Q for the Period Ended September 30, 2007
Friday February 29, 4:05 pm ET

LADSON, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Force Protection, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPT - News) today announced that it will delay the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Company intends to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 with the SEC promptly upon the completion of the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2007.

Force Protection today also announced that the Company’s Audit Committee concluded that the Company will restate its previously reported interim financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007. The Company will file a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission with regard to this restatement decision.

The Company reached the conclusion to restate based upon the recommendation of management and the concurrence of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company also discussed the matters related to the restatement with Elliott Davis, LLC, the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm. Therefore, the previously issued financial statements of the Company for the third quarter of 2007 filed on a Form 10-Q on November 13, 2007 should no longer be relied upon. Management discovered significant accounting errors during its year end review, including errors specifically related to the recording of accounts payable related to inventory purchased from a sub-contractor as a result of a contract termination.
