Item 5.03.
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On March 24, 2009, the Board of Directors of Next, Inc. (the Company) approved a change in the Companys fiscal year end from the Friday ending the 13-week period of the Companys fourth fiscal quarter to the Sunday ending the 13-week period of the Companys fourth fiscal quarter. As a result, the Companys 2009 fiscal year will end on Sunday, November 29, 2009, rather than on Friday, November 27, 2009.
Prior to this change, the Companys fiscal year was comprised of four 13-week fiscal quarters, with the first two months of each fiscal quarter being a 4-week period and the last month of each fiscal quarter being a 5-week period (subject to appropriate adjustment once every four years to account for leap years), in each case ending on a Friday. As a result of this change, each fiscal quarter within the Companys fiscal year (and each monthly period included within such fiscal quarter) will now end on a Sunday, with the 2009 fiscal year and the first fiscal quarter of 2009 having commenced immediately following the close of the Companys 2008 fiscal year, or on Saturday, November 29, 2009. In all other respects, the Companys fiscal year and component periods will remain the same.
The Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first fiscal quarter ended on March 1, 2009 will include information and financial statements covering the additional two days resulting from the changes described above. There were no sales made or expenses incurred in the two-day transition period between November 28, 2008 and December 1, 2008.
