State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Management of Meade Instruments Corp. (the "Company") is in the process of finalizing the financial statements and related disclosures to be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008. As previously disclosed and subsequent to the end of the Company's fiscal year, the Company sold its Redfield and Weaver brand names for an aggregate sales price of $8,000,000. As a result of such assets sales and other factors, the Company is in the process of amending its fiscal covenants and agreements. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of February 29, 2008. This process has caused delays in the final preparation and filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008. This delay in filing the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K on a timely basis is not due to any change in or disagreement with the Company's independent accountants.
