Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On February 17, 2009, WPT Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company) issued a press release discussing fourth quarter and full year 2008 financial results.  A copy of the press release was furnished in a Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2009.

 

The Company is revising that press release and amending that Current Report to include a value for the financial asset created when UBS AG (“UBS”), the broker that holds our auction rate securities portfolio (“ARS”), agreed to purchase our ARS (“Put Rights”) and an impairment charge now that the Company is relying on UBS to purchase our ARS.  The offsetting changes do not affect 2008 net income or cash flows and are not material to the previously reported December 28, 2008 balance sheet information.  The Company recorded a $605,000 increase in interest income for the value of the Put Rights and a $605,000 decrease in interest income for the impairment of the ARS in the fourth quarter of 2008.  The ARS impairment was the unrealized holding loss that was previously reported in other comprehensive loss.

 

In November 2008, the Company accepted an offer from UBS that requires UBS to purchase our ARS at par value at any time during the period of June 30, 2010 through July 2, 2012.  Conversely, UBS has the right, in its discretion, to purchase or sell our ARS at any time until July 2, 2012, so long as we are paid par value.  The Company expects to sell our ARS under the Put Rights.  However, if the Put Rights are not exercised before July 2, 2012 they will expire and UBS will have no further obligation to buy our ARS.

 

UBS’s obligations under the Put Rights are not secured by its assets and do not require UBS to obtain any financing to support its performance obligations under the Put Rights.  UBS has disclaimed any assurance that it will have sufficient financial resources to satisfy its obligations under the Put Rights and UBS’s obligations are not guaranteed by any other party.
