JAMAICA, N.Y., Oct. 17, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- On September 25, 2006, Pacific CMA (AMEX:PAM) filed an amendment to its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 ("2005 10-K").
Pacific learned that it had not used the correct accounting principles. It had treated its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("A Preferred") as debt, while those shares should have been treated as temporary equity.
To correct its error, the Company was obligated to restate its financial statement and other financial information contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the December 31, 2005 fiscal year.
The restatement resulted in an increase of net loss attributable to common stockholders of $556,916 (from $357,270 to $914,186) and $369,132 (from net income of $327,527 to a net loss of ($41,605)) for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Additionally, the company restated its financial statements for its quarter ended June 30, 2005 contained its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 and restatements will be required for the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and March 31, 2006 in its next two quarterly reports.
The restatement did not alter Pacific's then current assets or current liabilities.
