Section 4 — Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements

 

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

 

This filing describes reclassifications which SPACEHAB, Incorporated (the “Company”) will be making in the course of restating the Company’s Statements of Cash Flows for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 and its third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2005. The Company is unaware of any evidence that the reclassifications are due to any material noncompliance by the Company as a result of misconduct with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. The reclassifications described in this filing will only affect the Company’s consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and will have no impact on revenue, income from operations, net income, or covenants under its credit facility or other debt instruments.

 

Following a review of its accounting policy and in consultation with the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, and its independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, Ernst & Young LLP, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Audit Committee”) and authorized officers of the Company have determined that the Company incorrectly classified $17.7 million in insurance proceeds received during the Company’s fiscal third quarter of 2003 relating to the loss of the Company’s research double module and $8.2 million received during its second fiscal quarter of 2005 as operating cash flows and has reclassified these amounts as investing cash flows. As a result, on July 18, 2005, the Audit Committee and authorized officers concluded that the Company’s previously filed financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003 and third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2005 should and will be restated.

 

The restatement will reduce operating cash flows and increase investing cash flows by $17.7 million for fiscal year 2003 and by $8.2 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005. The Company will amend the appropriate filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission to include the restated Statements of Cash Flows. As a result of the restatement, the fiscal year 2003 the Statements of Cash Flows and Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 contained in the Company’s prior filings with the SEC should no longer be relied upon.
