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.
On July 21, 2005, SVB Financial Group (the Company) announced that it was changing its accounting treatment for warrants and as a result, was unable to provide complete financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 until that process was complete. In connection with such revised accounting treatment, the Company also announced that it planned to restate its consolidated financial statements for the years 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, and the first quarter of 2005. Such restated financial statements would reflect a revision in accounting treatment for its portfolio of unexercised warrant securities in privately-held companies the Company has taken in connection with credit facilities extended to such client companies.
As previously announced, under the revised accounting treatment, such warrant securities will be recorded at fair value at the time of issuance and marked to market for each subsequent reporting period in which they remain outstanding. Additionally, the fair value of these warrant securities as of the date of issuance are required to be recognized in interest income as an adjustment of loan yield over the life of the related credit facilities provided by the Company to the client companies issuing such warrant securities. Any changes from the initial fair value will be recognized as noninterest income.
The Company intends to file amendments to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2004 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, shortly before or simultaneously with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The Company is working diligently to complete such filings as soon as possible, however, given the scope of the process for the restatement of its financial statements and the change in warrant accounting treatment, the Company is unable to complete and file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 by the required due date of August 9, 2005, nor does the Company expect to file such report within five calendar days thereof.
