Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To Participants and Administrator of the Overstock.com, Inc

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Overstock.com 401(k) plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2008, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2008, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008 in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

 

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2008 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

401(k) PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1 — Plan Description

 

The following is a general description of the Overstock.com 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”). Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

 

General

 

The Plan is a defined contribution plan which was originally adopted by Overstock.com, Inc. (the “Company” or “Plan Sponsor”) in 1998 and has been amended from time to time since that date. Participation in the Plan is open to all eligible employees of the Company (individually, “Participant” and collectively, “Participants”). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

 

Trustee

 

The Plan has engaged Fidelity Management Trust Company (the “Trustee”) as Trustee to the Plan and all Plan assets are held in trust with the Trustee. The Plan has also engaged Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Corporation, Inc. (the “Record Keeper”) which provides recordkeeping and administrative services to the Plan.

 

Eligibility

 

Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan upon meeting the following criteria: (1) six months of service; and (2) 21 years of age. Employees of acquired companies, who meet the eligibility requirements of the Plan, may participate immediately upon acquisition. There were 931 and 893 participants in the Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

 

Contributions

 

Participants may contribute up to 60 percent of their annual compensation on a before-tax basis, provided the amounts do not exceed the annual limit imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). Such contributions are withheld by the Company from each Participant’s compensation and deposited with the Trustee to be applied to the appropriate fund in accordance with the Participant’s directives. The Company may contribute a discretionary matching percentage of these contributions subject to certain limitations. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company matched 50 percent of participant contributions up to six percent of their annual compensation. The matching contributions were in shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company may also make, at its sole discretion, an annual profit sharing contribution. The Company made a profit sharing contribution of $455,616 in shares of the Company’s common stock, for the year ended December 31, 2007. No discretionary contribution was made for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company deposits discretionary profit sharing contributions with the Trustee in the year following the year such contributions are authorized. Participant contributions and company matching contributions made on behalf of highly compensated employees may be limited pursuant to non-discrimination rules set forth in the Plan document and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

 

Participant Accounts

 

Separate accounts are maintained for each Participant and each Participant’s account is credited with the Participant’s contribution, and an allocation of the Company’s matching contribution and discretionary profit sharing contribution. The Company’s matching contribution and discretionary matching contribution have been invested in shares of common stock of the Plan Sponsor.  Plan earnings are allocated to each Participant’s account in proportion to the average daily balance in each fund option.  As of December 31, 2008, each Participant may elect to have his or her contributions invested in any one or any combination of twenty-seven investment funds and in the common stock of the Plan Sponsor. These funds include:

 

Fidelity Blue Chip Growth    The fund primarily invests in common stocks of well-known and established companies. Normally the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in blue chip companies (those with market capitalizations of at least $200 million if included in the S&P 500 Index or the Dow Jones Industrial Average, or $1 billion if not included in either index). The fund may also invest in common stocks of companies that Fidelity Management & Research Company (“FMR”) believes have above-average growth potential.

Vesting

For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, forfeited non-vested accounts

Table of Contents

 

totaled $302,386 and $247,586, respectively. The Plan Sponsor will allocate forfeited accounts to offset future employer contributions and administrative expenses.  No forfeited non-vested accounts were allocated to offset employer contributions and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007.  For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Plan Sponsor allocated forfeited non-vested accounts to offset $55,871 of administrative expenses.  No forfeited non-vested accounts were used to offset employer contributions for the year ended December 31, 2008.

 

Administration

 

The Plan is sponsored by the Company. Operating and administrative expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan are the responsibility of the Plan, unless assumed by the Company. During 2008, the Company assumed a majority of the Plan administrative and operating expenses; however, the Company has no obligation to assume any Plan expenses in the future.

 

Distributions

 

Distributions from the Plan are available upon any of the following: (1) termination of employment with the Company; (2) retirement and in-service distributions upon or following age 59 1/2; and (3) disability or death. The Participant (or the designated beneficiary) will receive a lump-sum distribution equal to the vested value of the account or receive the vested value of the account in periodic installments, or transfer the vested value of the account to an Individual Retirement Account or other qualified retirement plan. Distributions from the Plan will normally be taxed as ordinary income for income tax purposes, unless the Participant (or the designated beneficiary) elects to rollover his or her distributions into an Individual Retirement Account or another qualified retirement plan.

 

Loans to Participants

 

The Plan does not currently allow participant loans.

 

Amendment and Termination of the Plan

 

The Company anticipates that the Plan will continue without interruption; however, the Company, reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. No amendment or termination may deprive any person of rights accrued prior to the enactment of such amendment or termination. No amendment shall permit any part of the assets of the Plan to revert to the Company or be used or diverted for purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of the Participants. If the Plan should be terminated or partially terminated, the amount in each Participant’s account as of the date of such termination (after proper adjustment for all expenses, earnings and allocations) becomes fully vested and non-forfeitable. Such amounts are distributable by the Trustee to the Participants.

 

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies

 

Method of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets for the year ended December 31, 2008. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

 

On January 1, 2008, the Plan adopted as required, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 — Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”) which expands the disclosure of fair value measurements and its impact on the Plan’s financial statements. Refer to Note 4, “Fair Value Measurements”, for further information related to SFAS 157.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participant accounts, balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits.

 

Investment Valuation

 

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair market value and measured daily based on quoted prices in active markets. Investments in the various investment funds are reported at fair value as measured by Fidelity Management Trust Company at December 31, 2008 and 2007, based on the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end.  Investments in shares of common stock of

Overstock.com, which are traded on the NASDAQ, are valued using the last reported sales prior to close of the Plan year.

 

Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Net Appreciation (Depreciation) in Fair Value

 

The Plan presents in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits the net depreciation in the fair value of its investments, which consists of realized gains and losses, interest and dividends, and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments.

 

Contributions

 

Participant contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company makes payroll deductions from participants’ compensation. Company matching contributions are recorded in the same period. Company profit sharing contributions, if any, are accrued in the period for which they are authorized and are deposited with the Trustee in the following period.

 

Benefit Payments

 

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Note 4 — Fair Value Measurements

 

SFAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 measurements and the lowest priority to Level 3 measurements. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described as follows:

 

Level 1:  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

 

Level 2:  Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

10



Table of Contents

 

Level 3:  Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques noted in SFAS 157:

 

A.  Market approach: Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

 

B.  Cost approach: Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

 

C.  Income approach: Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models).

 

The following table classifies the investment assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2008:

Note 5 — Excess Employee Deferrals

 

The Plan failed to meet non-discrimination tests in accordance with the IRS regulations during the 2008 and 2007 Plan years and it was determined certain participants would be refunded a portion of their contributions. The amount accrued for at December 31, 2008 and refunded in 2009 was $35,015. The amount accrued for at December 31, 2007 and refunded in 2008 was $62,843.

 

Note 6 — Tax Status of the Plan

 

On October 9, 2003, the Internal Revenue Service stated that the non-standardized prototype adopted by the Plan, as then designed, qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). The plan has not received a determination letter specific to the plan itself; however, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes is necessary.

 

Note 7 — Parties in Interest

 

Certain investments of the Plan are shares of funds managed by the Trustee. In addition, the Plan holds an investment in Overstock.com, Inc. common stock. These transactions are considered exempt party-in-interest transactions. The 2008 and 2007 employer discretionary contributions were invested in shares of Overstock.com, Inc. common stock.

 

Note 8 — Unregistered Shares of Overstock.com

 

In June 2009, the Company discovered that it inadvertently issued 201,421 more shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with the Plan than were registered on the previously filed Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-123540) relating to the Plan.  Because the Company sponsors the Plan, it is required to register transactions in the Plan related to shares of Overstock.com common stock.  In July 2009, the Company filed a new registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-160512) to register future transactions in the Plan.

 

The Company has always treated the shares issued in transactions with the Plan as outstanding for financial reporting purposes.

 

The Company believes that it has always provided the employee-participants in the Plan with the same information they would have received had the additional shares been registered.  Original purchasers of the Shares may have rescission rights with respect to such Shares under applicable federal securities laws for up to one year following the date of acquisition of the shares.  These rescission rights represent a contingent liability of the Company.  In addition, the Company may be subject to civil and other penalties by regulatory authorities as a result of the failure to
