Basis of Presentation

(2) Basis of Presentation:

The consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2012, the consolidated statements of income/(loss) and comprehensive income/(loss) for the six months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity for the six months ended October 31, 2012, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared by us, without audit.

SWSS LLC, formerly Smith & Wesson Security Solutions, Inc. (“SWSS”), our security solutions division, is being presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income/(loss) and comprehensive income/(loss) for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional information regarding these discontinued operations. Unless stated otherwise, any reference to the consolidated statements of income/(loss) and comprehensive income/(loss) items in the notes to the consolidated financial statements refers to results from continuing operations.

The quarter end for our wholly owned subsidiaries, Smith & Wesson Corp. and SWSS, was October 28, 2012, a three-day variance to our reported fiscal quarter end of October 31, 2012. This variance did not create any material difference in the consolidated financial statements as presented. In our opinion, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows at October 31, 2012 and for the periods presented, have been included. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2012 has been derived from our audited financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, filed with the SEC on June 28, 2012. The results of operations for the six months ended October 31, 2012 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 2013 or any other period.

Reclassification

Certain amounts presented in the prior periods’ consolidated cash flows related to discontinued operations have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
