Hanger,Inc. (OTCMKTS:HNGR) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial ConditionItem 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May12, 2017, Hanger,Inc. (the “Company”) filed its Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December31, 2014 (the “2014 Form10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On January19, 2018, the Company filed with the SEC its Annual Report on Form10-K for the years ended December31, 2015 and December31, 2016 (the “2016 Form10-K”). The filing of the 2016 Form10-K was delayed significantly as a result of the delay in the filing of the 2014 Form10-K, the number of accounting periods encompassed within the 2016 Form10-K, and the additional review, analysis and substantive procedures performed due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.These material weaknesses were disclosed in the 2016 Form10-K.
The Company has not yet filed financial statements for the first, second and third quarters of 2017, or the full year ended December31, 2017. The Company is currently preparing its 2017 financial statements and related financial data, and has commenced the audit process. The Company believes its prior reconstruction, reconciliation and correction of the accounting records and ledgers supporting the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the years ended 2014, 2015 and 2016, along with the clarification and documentation of its updated and revised accounting policies, will reduce the time necessary for the completion of its 2017 financial accounting and reporting processes. Nevertheless, due to the existing material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, it is necessary for the Company to prepare, review and undertake substantive testing and confirmation of its financial accounting, and these activities have resulted in an extended timetable for the completion of its 2017 financial statements. The Company intends to prepare and complete its consolidated financial statements for 2017 and file its Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December31, 2017 as expeditiously as possible, and currently believes that absent unforeseen issues or circumstances, it can do so during the second quarter of 2017.
