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 Company’s 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 EEI’s investment in Gestion Ambiental Consultores S.A. (“GAC”) since 1999.  The financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018 included a restated consolidated balance sheet at July 31, 2017, and restated consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2017 and 2016 (the “Restated Annual Financial Statements”).  The Company’s Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the periods ended October 27, 2018 and January 26, 2019 included restated unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three months ended October 28, 2017 and the three and six months ended January 27, 2018 (the “Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”).  This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes restated unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three and nine months ended April 28, 2018.  Tables related to revenues, operating expenses and income taxes for the three and nine months ended April 28, 2018 included in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have also been restated.

The Company had previously included GAC’s 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 GAC’s operations due to lack of continuous control over the activities of GAC’s board of directors and senior management team.  As a result, the Company’s net investment in GAC should have been accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

Collectively, the adjustments necessary to deconsolidate GAC’s unaudited financial statements and correctly account for the Company’s investment in GAC under the equity method of accounting are referred to as the “GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments.”  For the three months ended April 28, 2018, the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments resulted in decreases of $2.8 million, $0.3 million and less than $0.1 million in consolidated gross revenue, income before income tax provision and net income attributable to EEI, respectively.  For the nine months ended April 28, 2018, the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments resulted in decreases of $8.1 million, $0.7 million and less than $0.1 million in consolidated gross revenue, income before income tax provision and net income attributable to EEI, respectively.

In addition to the GAC Deconsolidation Adjustments, previously filed financial statements for the three and nine months ended April 28, 2018 were also adjusted to correct 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 April 28, 2018, the Out of Period Adjustments resulted in decreases of $0.2 million, less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million of consolidated gross revenue, income before income tax provision and net income attributable to EEI, respectively.  For the nine months ended April 28, 2018, the Out of Period Adjustments resulted in increases of $0.3 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 April 28, 2018, filed with the SEC on June 12, 2018.
