Restatement of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on December 12, 2018, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) determined that the Companys previously issued financial statements for quarterly periods prior to July 31, 2018 can no longer be relied upon due to errors related to accounting for EEIs investment in Gestion Ambiental Consultores S.A. (GAC) since 1999.  The Company intends to prospectively amend financial statements for the quarters ended October 28, 2017, January 27, 2018 and April 28, 2018 when it files its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the corresponding quarters during the fiscal year ending July 31, 2019.  As a result, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include restated unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and shareholders equity for the fiscal quarter and six months ended January 27, 2018.

The Company had previously included GACs financial statements in consolidated financial statements filed with the SEC prior to July 31, 2018.  In December 2018, the Company determined that, although it had a majority ownership interest in GAC, it did not have a controlling interest in GACs operations due to lack of continuous control over the activities of GACs board of directors and senior management team.  As a result, the Companys net investment in GAC should have been accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

Collectively, the adjustments necessary to deconsolidate GACs unaudited financial statements and correctly account for the Companys investment in GAC under the equity method of accounting are referred to as the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments.”  For the three months ended January 27, 2018, the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments resulted in decreases of $3.2 million and $0.3 million in consolidated gross revenue and income before income tax provision, respectively, and had no impact on net income attributable to EEI.  For the six months ended January 27, 2018, the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments resulted in decreases of $5.3 million and $0.4 million in consolidated gross revenue and income before income tax provision, and had no impact on net income attributable to EEI.

In addition to the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments, previously filed financial statements for the quarter and six months ended October 28, 2017 were also adjusted for correction of other errors in the financial statements and disclosures that were deemed to be immaterial on an individual basis and in the aggregate for those reporting periods (the Out of Period Adjustments).  For the three months ended January 27, 2018, the Out of Period Adjustments resulted in decreases of $0.6 million and less than $0.1 million of consolidated gross revenue and income before income tax provision, respectively, and an increase of $0.2 million of net income attributable to EEI.  For the six months ended January 27, 2018, the Out of Period Adjustments resulted in increases of $0.5 million, less than $0.1 million and $0.3 million of consolidated gross revenue, income before income tax provision and net income attributable to EEI, respectively.

The “As Previously Reported” amounts in the tables below represent the amounts reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended January 26, 2018, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2018.
