PART III — NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

The Registrant is unable to timely file its report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007 without unreasonable effort or expense.  As previously announced in our 8-K dated July 24, 2007, we have completed an $11.1 million financing transaction that resulted in transfer of our Liquidmetal Coatings division to a newly formed, newly capitalized subsidiary.  In addition to work associated with the 10Q, the Company’s finance team has focused its efforts on the setup of the new subsidiary’s accounting system.  Due to the amount of work associated with this, we were unable to file the Form 10-Q by the November 9, 2007 deadline.

 

The Registrant expects to file its Form 10-Q within the prescribed extended period of November 14, 2007.

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed ? If answer is no, identify report(s).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

x Yes    o No

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(3)

 

Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

x Yes    o No

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

 

 

 

 

 

It is expected that the Registrant’s sales and cost of sales be approximately $7.1 million and approximately $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $8.0 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006.   Net loss is expected to be approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to net income of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006.  The decrease in sales and cost of sales recorded in this quarter compared to those for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were attributable primarily to decreases in sales of our parts manufactured from bulk Liquidmetal alloys to consumer electronics customers from increased reliance on licensees to manufacture and sell bulk Liquidmetal alloys parts to customers based in South Korea.  The increase in net loss compared to that of the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was primarily attributable to a decrease in benefit from the change in value of warrants and embedded conversion feature of our convertible debt of $2.5 million primarily from fluctuations in our stock price.
