Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

(a) On November 7, 2011, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of K-V Pharmaceutical Company (the “Company”), upon recommendation from the Company’s management, concluded that certain previously issued financial statements did not include the proper treatment and classification for the embedded derivative feature of warrants issued in November 2010 and March 2011. Specifically, the warrants were misclassified as equity instead of as liabilities. Therefore, the Company will restate and amend previous filings as a result of the misapplication of accounting guidance relating to non-standard anti-dilution provisions in the warrants. In the restated financial statements, the warrants will be classified as liabilities beginning with the date they were first issued in November 2010 or March 2011, as applicable, with changes in the fair value being recorded as non-cash income or expense in each reporting period. However, the non-cash adjustments to correct the previous treatment and classification, in all of the affected periods, will not impact the amounts previously reported for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, operating expenses, operating losses or cash flows.

Consequently, the Company will file an amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 that will contain restated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, and amended Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q/A for the quarters ended December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2011, respectively, that will contain restated financial statements for each affected quarter. The Company expects to file all of these amended public reports within the next 30 days. Until such amended filings are made, the original filings for those periods should not be relied upon.

As a result of the foregoing, the registrant was not able to complete its Form 10-Q for the quarter periods ended September 30, 2011 by its due date of November 9, 2011 without unreasonable effort and expense. The Company expects to file this Form 10-Q with the SEC as soon as practicable after filing the amended filings described above, and, in any case, within five days of such filings.

The Company and its Audit Committee have discussed the matters reported in this report with its independent public accounting firm, BDO USA, LLP.
