PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
As was previously reported by Deckers Outdoor Corporation (the Company) in its Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 26, 2007, the Audit Committee of the Companys Board of Directors (the Audit Committee), assisted by independent outside legal counsel, has undertaken an internal review of employee payroll declarations and certain tax payments that were underreported and underpaid by certain of the Companys foreign subsidiaries in foreign jurisdictions. The Company promptly and voluntarily informed the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission of the Audit Committees internal review. In connection with this internal review, the Audit Committee and its advisors have also undertaken a review of the Companys and its subsidiaries internal controls over financial reporting and their related disclosure controls and procedures.
Based upon the Audit Committees investigation to date, the Company believes that the inadequate declarations and underpayments did not exceed $500,000 in any given year and $2.7 million in the aggregate and that interest and penalties with respect thereto could range from $3.3 million to $15.4 million. However, the Audit Committee has not yet completed the internal review or determined whether, or in what amounts, the underpayments will result in any government action or whether any past due interest, fines or other penalties will be imposed. As a result, the Company has not made a final determination as to whether a restatement of any of its historical financial statements is necessary.
At this time, the Company does not believe that government actions, interest, fines, penalties, remedies, sanctions, litigation and related expenses or charges will disrupt the Companys operations or have a material adverse effect on the Companys business; however, no assurance can be given at this time regarding the final impact. There can be no assurance that government actions with respect to this matter will not be instituted, that interest, fines and other penalties, remedies and sanctions will not be imposed, or that the Company will not be required to make changes to our business practices and compliance programs.
Due to the possibility of a restatement of certain financial information, including prior year financial information necessary for comparison to interim financial data, the Company is not able to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2007. The Company intends to file its Quarterly Report for the period ended June 30, 2007 as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the Audit Committees internal review. However, the Company does not expect the filing of its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2007 to occur on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date for such Quarterly Report.

In its Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 26, 2007, the Company reported preliminary, unaudited financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The financial results and accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of income were presented on a GAAP basis excluding the effect, if any, of the internal review described in Part III above. Because the investigation by the Audit Committee is ongoing and the Company has not yet made a final determination as to whether and to what extent a restatement of certain of the Companys historical financial statements may be required, there can be no assurance that the financial information included in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 26, 2007 and/or previous reports will not change.
