Logitech International (SIX:LOGN) (Nasdaq:LOGI) today announced that the
SIX Swiss Exchange has granted the Company an additional extension –
until Oct. 31, 2014 – for publishing and submitting its Annual Report
for Fiscal Year 2014. Logitech’s Annual Report was originally scheduled
to be published by July 31, 2014, and the SIX Swiss Exchange had
previously granted an interim extension until Aug. 29, 2014.
As previously disclosed, Logitech’s Audit Committee, with the assistance
of independent advisors, is conducting an independent investigation of
certain accounting matters related to the Company’s previously issued
financial statements. Related to the Audit Committee’s investigation,
the Company is performing additional work associated with its Fiscal
Year 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which might result in adjustments
to the previously issued financial statements. Due to the investigation
and the additional work being performed, Logitech has not yet filed its
Fiscal Year 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), and this delay also impacts the Annual Report
for Fiscal Year 2014 that is published and submitted to the SIX Swiss
Exchange.
The SIX Swiss Exchange reserves the right to suspend trading of Logitech
shares if Logitech does not publish its Annual Report by Nov. 3, 2014 at
7:30 a.m. Central European Time.
Logitech continues to devote significant resources to complete and file
all required periodic reports with the SEC and SIX Swiss Exchange as
soon as possible following the completion of the investigation.
The SIX Swiss Exchange has requested that Logitech publish the following
