Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is unable to file its Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company is working to resolve a complex accounting issue relating to the accounting treatment for its outstanding warrants.

Jacqueline M. Lemke          (765) 463-4527
Name  (Area Code) (Telephone Number)

 

(2) 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 [_] 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 [_] 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:

 

Results of operations for the three and nine months of fiscal 2013 ended June 30, 2013 to be included on Form 10-Q are expected to include a decline in revenues to $5.6 and $16.6 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, from $7.2 and $21.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The Company also expects to report an improvement in the gross profit % for the third fiscal quarter of 2013 as compared to the third fiscal quarter of 2012, from 28.7% to 36.3%, and for the nine months of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012, from 21.6% to 31.1%. Likewise, the Company expects to report net operating income in the three and nine months of fiscal 2013 as compared to net operating loss for comparable periods of fiscal 2012. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate any changes in net income due to the potential impact of the warrant accounting issue.

 

This notice contains statements that constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those statements include our expectations regarding changes in our results of operations from prior periods to be reported in the Form 10-Q when filed. Readers are cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not guarantees of future results and involve risks and uncertainties. In addition, we have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about our third quarter results. Our work to address the warrant accounting issue is ongoing and the results discussed above may change as we complete our analysis.
