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

On
January 25, 2008, Carrizo concluded that it would restate its financial
statements as of and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September
30,
2007 after year-end reporting procedures determined that its unrealized,
noncash
mark-to-market adjustment for its open interest rate derivative positions
did
not include the impact of an interest rate derivative valued at $(1.8)
million
at September 30, 2007. The restated results do not have any cash
impact on Carrizo. Management of Carrizo does not believe the
restatement has any material impact on Carrizo’s financial condition.
The
determination to restate was approved by the audit committee of Carrizo’s board
of directors upon the recommendation of Carrizo’s senior
management. Carrizo’s audit committee and management have discussed
the matters described herein with Carrizo’s independent registered public
accounting firm.
Concurrently
with the filing of this report, Carrizo is filing a quarterly report on Form
10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2007 that contains a
restatement of certain captions in its consolidated statements of income
and
balance sheet, including the restatement of the following captions as set
forth
below:
·
|
Gain
on derivatives, net for the three months and nine months ended
September
30, 2007 of $1.9 million and $0.3 million,
respectively;
|
·
|
Income
taxes for the three months and nine months ended September 30,
2007 of
$2.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively;
and
|
·
|
Net
income for the three months and nine months ended September 30,
2007 of
$4.2 million and $9.8 million,
respectively.
|
·
|
Total
assets of $630.6 million, total current liabilities of $58.1 million
and
total liabilities and shareholders’ equity of $630.6
million.

Investors
are cautioned not to rely on Carrizo’s historical financial statements in the
Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2007 as originally
filed.
Statements
in this report, including but not limited to those relating
to Carrizo’s or management’s intentions, beliefs, expectations, hopes,
projections, assessment of risks, estimations, plans or predictions for the
future, including the impact of the restatement, timing of filings with the
SEC
and other statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements that are based on current expectations. Although Carrizo
believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, it can
give
no assurance that these expectations will prove correct. Important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in
the
forward-looking statements include delays and uncertainties that may be
encountered in connection with the restatement, final audits and reviews
by
Carrizo and its auditors, and other risks described in Carrizo’s Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31,
2006
and
its other filings with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated. Investors
should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Each
forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement
and Carrizo undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking
statement.
