Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On April 25, 2007, Rambus Inc. (Rambus) issued a press release announcing revenue results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
The information under this item in this current report on Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events
Included in the press release referred to above, Rambus announced an update related to its independent investigation of historical stock option grants. On October 19, 2006, Rambus reported that preliminary estimates of the aggregate pre-tax, non-cash stock-based compensation charges in connection with the incorrectly dated historical stock option grants would be in excess of $200 million. After further review, the Company expects that these charges and other related charges will be approximately $190 million. The Company plans to report the final charge upon completion of the restatement of its historical financial statements.
As the restatement process has not yet been completed, Rambus will not be releasing first quarter earnings today. In addition, Rambus does not expect to be in a position to file its Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 by the May 10, 2007 filing deadline.
