Item 4.02. (a) Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review On June 13, 2007, the management of 8x8, Inc. (the "Company", "our" or "we") determined that our
accounting treatment of warrants issued to three investors in three different equity financings that we consummated in fiscal 2005 and 2006 ("Equity
Financings") was incorrect and determined that we are required to restate our previously audited financial statements for the years ended March 31,
2005 and March 31, 2006 and our unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006, and December 31,
2006, that we previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). As a result, our Audit Committee, Board of Directors
and management have concluded that the financial statements during these periods should no longer be relied upon.
We intend to include restated financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005 and 2006 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended March 31, 2007 and file amended reports on Form 10-Q with the restated quarterly financial statements and amended "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" together with our Annual Report on Form 10-K no later than the fifteenth
calendar day following the prescribed due date. Background: In the Company's fiscal years 2005 and 2006, the Company entered into three separate equity financing
transactions involving the sale of shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in a registered offering under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Each purchaser in the offerings received warrants with a term of five years to purchase the shares of common stock
at a specified exercise price. The terms of the warrants specify that the Company is to deliver freely tradable shares upon exercise by the warrant holder.
The prospectus for the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant has been in effect since the original issuance date of the warrant and the warrant
holders have been continuously able to receive freely tradable shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants at any time. The Company updates
the prospectus through the filing of periodic reports, including Current Reports on Form 8-K, to incorporate other information about the Company into the
prospectus from time to time. The Company expects the prospectus to remain available for sale and delivery of the shares issuable upon exercise of
these warrants until the warrants either are exercised or expire by their terms. In fiscal years 2005 and 2006, our audited financial statements accounted
for these warrants as equity, which we believed was in accord with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative
Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock" ("EITF 00-19").
The Company recently determined that these warrants should be accounted for as liabilities, because the possibility, however likely or
unlikely, that the Company would be unable to deliver registered shares upon a future exercise of these warrants means that the
warrants are deemed to include a "net cash settlement" provision within the meaning of EITF 00-19. The required accounting for a
warrant with a "net cash settlement" provision under EITF 00-19 is to estimate the fair value on the date of issuance and to record a
liability equal to that value to reflect the required assumption that the Company will breach its obligation to deliver registered shares in
the future (which we refer to as a "presumed breach"). In addition, changes in the fair value as of the end of each subsequent reporting
period must be accounted for as income or expense under EITF 00-19. Consequently, our restated financial statements, as well as our
financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2007 will reflect a liability for the warrants and reflect a gain or loss for the change in
their fair value from period-to-period since there is a possibility, even if remote, that the warrants could be cash settled if there were a
presumed breach of the agreement. The provisions of EITF 00-19 stipulate, that unless the warrant agreement explicitly states that net
cash settlement is not available, there is a presumption in the event registered shares are not available at exercise that a company's
obligation and method of settlement would be a net cash payment to the warrant holder in an amount equal to the fair value amount
determined under EITF 00-19. The amount we record as a liability under EITF 00-19 is not, nor do we intend for it to be an admission
or stipulation of the amount that we would owe or be obligated to pay the warrant holder in the event of an actual breach by us of the
warrant terms. In fact, we have made no determination of the amount of liability, if any, that we would owe to the warrant holder in the
event of such a breach.
IMPACT OF RESTATEMENT ON PREVIOUSLY REPORTED AMOUNTS: The Company is completing its analysis of the impact that the correction of this error will have on its previously reported
financial statements. The Company has determined, however, that the correction of this error will have no impact on previously reported revenue or net
cash flows for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007. Based on the Company's initial review, we believe that the resulting non-cash
charges or credits to the financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007 are material. The estimated impact of recording
warrants as a liability on the balance sheet is as follows: Estimated Liability 2005 $ 5 2006 $ 7 2007 $ 3
