Power Solutions International Requires Additional Time to File Its Second Quarter Form 10-Q

WOOD DALE, Ill., Aug. 15, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power Solutions International, Inc. (Nasdaq:PSIX), a leader in the design, engineer and manufacture of emissions-certified, alternative-fuel power systems, today announced that it requires additional time to file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  The Company had previously disclosed its intent to file a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with the SEC on August 10, 2016.  Pursuant to Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company received an extension until August 15, 2016. The extension will expire without the filing of the Company's Form 10-Q.

The additional time is needed for the Company to complete a review and finalize the financial statements for the second quarter. The Company has not completed its financial statements in light of an ongoing review of allegations made by a former employee.  The Board and the Company take all allegations that concern its financial reporting seriously and initiated an independent review to assess whether there is any merit to them.  The review is primarily focused on certain transactions involving revenue recognition. The Audit Committee and the professionals engaged by it to conduct the independent review are working diligently with management to conclude this review in a timely manner. Once the independent review is complete, the Company will announce its findings and subsequently release its results for the quarter.

The review does not affect the Company’s ongoing operations, its ability to serve its customers, or its long-term growth prospects.  The Company and the Board of Directors are committed to ensuring integrity of its compliance procedures and financial reporting.
