PORTLAND, Ore., April 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MathStar, Inc. , the FPOA leader, today announced it had filed its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2006 and that report included a going concern qualification.
NASDAQ rules require a listed company to publicly announce if its annual report includes an audit opinion containing a "going concern" -- that is, a paragraph from the company's independent accountants expressing substantial doubt as to the company's ability to continue to meet its obligations over the next 12 months.
MathStar said that its cash balances and planned cash utilization over the next twelve months, coupled with its limited operating history were reasons cited by its independent auditors.
"During our quarterly earnings conference call," stated Douglas M. Pihl, Chief Executive Officer and President, "we addressed the issue of raising additional funds before the end of the year. We believe we will be successful in raising any additional capital required t fund the ongoing operations of MathStar."
