EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Mercury Computer Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) solely to amend its disclosures in Item 9A of Part II of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 (the “Form 10-K”), which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 10, 2004. The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to address comments that the Company received from the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC in connection with the filing of the Form 10-K. Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 1 contains the complete text of Item 9A of Part II, as amended, and a new Exhibit Index. Unaffected items have not been repeated in this Amendment No. 1. This Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the date of the original filing of the Form 10-K and has not been updated to reflect events occurring subsequent to the original filing date.

 

PART II

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

The Company conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
