FAIRFIELD, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 7, 2002
Datatec Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: DATCE), a leading provider of technology deployment services and software tools, today filed its 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2003.
In advance of the public release of the Company's fiscal 2003 first quarter financial results on November 5, 2002, Datatec's Audit Committee met with senior representatives of its auditors, Deloitte and Touche. Upon the advice of those senior representatives, the Audit Committee approved the financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal 2003. These statements included reporting in the current quarter the cumulative effect of a change to the method of estimating progress toward completion of the Company's contracts.
Datatec subsequently issued a press release at 4:00 PM on November 5, 2002 and attached summary financial information that reflected the recommended accounting treatment of the cumulative effect. This press release was reviewed and agreed to by senior representatives of Deloitte and Touche prior to its release.
Yesterday, Deloitte and Touche notified the Company that the appropriate approach to present this type of accounting change is to record it retroactively. Consequently, the financial results released today in the Company's Form 10-Q filing with the SEC reflect the corrected presentation retroactively.
Isaac Gaon, Datatec Chairman and CEO said, "We rely upon our professional advisors to give us correct guidance on complex accounting issues like the one described above before we go to the market with financial information. As stated above, the Company received advice from Deloitte and Touche that the summary financial information as presented in our November 5, 2002 press release was correct. The adjustment does not change the operating results reported before the accounting change, nor does it change Datatec's forecast for a sales growth of no less than 25% in fiscal 2003."
