PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
On October 31, 2006, Hansen Natural Corporation (the "Company") disclosed the receipt of a letter from the Staff of the Pacific Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission requesting that the Company voluntarily produce certain documents and information relating to the Company's filing of SEC Forms 4 and the Company's stock option grant practices. On November 6, 2006, the Company announced that it had appointed a special committee (the "Special Committee") to undertake a special investigation of certain option grants. On March 23, 2007, the Company announced that the Special Committee had substantially completed its special investigation and reported its findings.
In light of the investigation regarding stock option grants, the Company currently is not in a position to complete the preparation of the financial statements and certain related information required to be included in the Form 10-Q. The Company is working towards filing all delinquent periodic reports within any time periods required by Nasdaq to continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
This will likely not occur until after the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date of the Form 10-Q.
