Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The following information is intended to be furnished under Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, “Results of Operations and Financial Condition.” This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

On October 26, 2011, PCTEL, Inc. (“the Company”) issued a press release regarding its financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review

(a) On October 25, 2011, management and the Audit Committee concluded that the Company’s interim financial statements for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011 contained a material accounting misstatement of share based compensation that had been recorded related to the PCTEL Secure LLC joint venture (“PCTEL Secure” or “joint venture”) with Eclipse Design Technologies, Inc. (“Eclipse”). The Company has concluded that such financial statements should no longer be relied upon.

On January 5, 2011, the Company formed PCTEL Secure, a joint venture limited liability company, with Eclipse. PCTEL Secure designs software and secure digital-based solutions that will enable secure applications on commercial Android cellular phone platforms. The Company contributed $2.5 million in cash on the formation of the joint venture in return for 51% ownership of the joint venture. In return for 49% ownership of the joint venture, Eclipse contributed $2.4 million of intangible assets in the form of intellectual property and a services agreement, including an assembled workforce, to provide services. This assembled workforce included an employee of PCTEL Secure and two contractors for Eclipse that Eclipse identified as key contributors of services. Eclipse entered into cash bonus arrangements with the three key contributors that were indexed to the future amount received by Eclipse under one of the call features in the joint venture agreement by which the Company would gain ownership of the last 30% of PCTEL Secure. The cash bonus arrangements were subject to the accounting guidance of share based payments to employees and to non-employees because of the indexing of the cash bonuses to the ultimate equity value of PCTEL Secure. The Company concluded that at the date of the joint venture formation, it was probable that the Company would exercise its rights under that call option, based on its control over PCTEL Secure, its intent, and its financial resources available. The Company miscalculated the fair value of the share based payment arrangements for the participants as well as the appropriate cost attribution under the guiding accounting literature.

The effect on Net Loss Available to Common Shareholders in the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011 is that it should be $(682,000) instead of the $(1,285,000) reported. In other words, the Company lost $603,000 less than previously reported. The effect on Net Loss Available to Common Shareholders in the quarterly period ended June 30, 2011 is that it should be $(68,000) instead of the $(81,000) reported, or a $(13,000) smaller loss. First quarter 2011 GAAP EPS should be a net loss of $(0.04) instead of the $(0.07) reported, or $0.03 greater. Second quarter 2011 GAAP EPS did not change from the $0.00 reported. The Company’s revenue, cash flow and Non-GAAP earnings as presented in its quarterly earnings releases filed as current reports on Form 8-K are unaffected.


The Company expects to amend its affected quarterly report filings on Form 10-Q for the first and second quarters of the current fiscal year by filing amendments to such filings on Form 10-Q/A that reflect these changes, as soon as practicable. The Company is still evaluating the level of internal control deficiency that the misstatements represent and expects to report on its conclusion in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for Q3 of the current fiscal year and in the amendments on Form 10-Q/A referenced above. The Company’s year to date GAAP information in the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 reflects the revisions. The Company’s management and its audit committee have discussed these matters with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
