Vfinance, Inc - Recent Material Event
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a
Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
As previously described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded adjustments as a result of
comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to
reclassify marketable securities received as compensation for investment banking
services from "trading securities" to "available-for-sale" securities, effective
January 1, 2002 as part of a restatement. As a result of this reclassification,
non-cash unrealized gains and losses related to the securities classified as
available-for-sale were reclassified from the determination of net income (loss)
to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders'
equity.
On November 12, 2007, after reconsidering the adjustments to the financial
statements described in the previous paragraph, management determined that the
reclassification originally suggested by the staff of the SEC should not have
been made and, as a result, the Company revised the previously restated
financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, 2004
and 2003. The Chief Financial Officer of the Company discussed the restatement
with the Company's independent auditors. As a consequence of reverting to the
financial statement presentation used by the Company prior to the restatement,
securities received as compensation for investment banking services have been
classified as "marketable securities" or "not readily marketable securities," as
appropriate, with realized and unrealized gains and losses related to these
securities included in the determination of net income (loss) in the
consolidated statements of operations.
As a result of the foregoing, we intend to file our December 31, 2007
Annual Report on Form 10-K with restated financial statements and revised
disclosures for the fiscal periods covered by that report.
