Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously disclosed, on June 27, 2011, NBC Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Nebraska Book Company, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Nebraska Book”), NBC Holdings Corp., the parent of the company (“NBC Holdings”), and the subsidiaries of Nebraska Book (collectively, with the Company, Nebraska Book and NBC Holdings, the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions for reorganization relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”). The reorganization cases are being jointly administered as Case No. 11-12005 under the caption “In re Nebraska Book Company, Inc., et al.” (hereinafter referred to as the “Chapter 11 Proceedings”). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Court.
On November 28, 2011, the Debtors filed their updated monthly operating report for the period from September 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011 (the “Updated Monthly Operating Report”) with the Bankruptcy Court. The original monthly operating report for the period from September 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011 was filed with the Court on October 31, 2011 (the “Original Monthly Operating Report”). The Updated Monthly Operating Report includes revised unaudited financial information for goodwill and other impairment amounts. As with the Original Monthly Operating Report, the Updated Monthly Operating Report includes deferral of $14.6 million of revenue and $7.8 million of gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. The deferred revenue and gross margin will be fully recognized during the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The Updated Monthly Operating Report is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On November 30, 2011, the Debtors filed their monthly operating report for the period from October 1, 2011 to October 31, 2011 (the “Monthly Operating Report”) with the Bankruptcy Court. The monthly operating report includes deferral of $8.8 million of revenue and $4.5 million of gross margin for the period ended October 31, 2011. The deferred revenue and gross margin will be fully recognized during the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The Monthly Operating Report is attached as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
This current report (including the exhibits hereto) will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD. In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

 


 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Financial Operating Data
The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report, which were not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report are limited in scope, cover a limited time period, and have been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report were not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, were not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, are in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and are subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report are complete. The Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report also contain information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the Updated Monthly Operating Report and the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

the Company’s ability to obtain court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 proceedings prosecuted from time to time and to develop, prosecute, confirm and consummate one or more plans of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 proceedings and to consummate all of the transactions contemplated by one or more such plans of reorganization or upon which consummation of such plans may be conditioned;
 
   
goodwill impairment or impairment of identifiable intangibles resulting in a non-cash write down of goodwill or identifiable intangibles; and
 
   
other risks detailed in the Company’s SEC filings, in particular the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Company’s control.
