    QUESTION: How do visionary companies minimize the risks of
    material weaknesses and financial restatements while reducing the
    time, costs, and uncertainties associated with quarterly financial
    reporting cycles?

    ANSWER: Visionary companies perform a Single Close which links all
    financial close activities with key internal controls over
    financial reporting.

    Recent SEC guidance stated that the overall focus of internal
    control reporting should be on those items that could result in
    material errors in the financial statements. An analysis of recent
    material weaknesses and financial restatements reveals that many
    problems could have been avoided with a synchronized Single Close.

    Join John Hagerty of AMR Research, Dwight Wagner, Division Finance
    Manager of FMC Corporation, a leading chemical company serving the
    agricultural, industrial and consumer markets, and Eric Keller,
    CEO of Movaris, for a real-world view into how a single close
    process for financial results and key controls enables companies
    to:

    --  Spend more time on analysis, less on process

    --  Reduce preparation work and audit-related costs

    --  Reduce probability of material weaknesses

    --  Avoid financial restatements
