Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure:  Information Furnished Pursuant to Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On July 28, 2003, Adaptec, Inc. announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.  A copy of Adaptec’s press release announcing these financial results is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The pro forma information provided in the attached press release, is a supplement to, not a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  The pro forma results have been adjusted on a consistent basis to exclude certain expenses, gains and losses and we believe these results provide a more complete understanding of our underlying operational results and trends.  Consistent with our historical practice, the pro forma measures included in the attached press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measures.

 

In accordance with the procedural guidance in SEC Release No. 33-8216, the information in this report is being furnished under “Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure” rather than under “Item 12. Disclosure of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.” The information in this report shall not be treated as “filed” for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
