On November 8, 2012, the Company disclosed that it will restate its previously filed financial statements for the years 2009 through 2011, the interim periods for 2011, and the first and second quarter of 2012 to "correct certain errors relating to the classification of items on the consolidated statement of cash flows in those periods."
