(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, WA -- (Marketwired) -- 02/11/16 -- Barrett Business Services, Inc. (BBSI or the Company) (NASDAQ: BBSI), a leading provider of business management solutions, has received a favorable outcome from the independent investigation it launched in November 2015.
The investigation by the Stoll Berne law firm was conducted to determine whether an illegal act had occurred with respect to BBSI''s workers'' compensation expense reserve for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and possibly for other periods. After a nearly three-month investigation, Stoll Berne did not find that an illegal act had occurred. These findings were presented to the Company as well as representatives of BBSI''s independent public accounting firm, Moss Adams.
Anthony Meeker, chairman of BBSI''s board of directors, commented: "The board of directors appreciates the thoroughness of Stoll Berne''s investigation. We believe the process has served to strengthen our operations, bringing clarity and improvement to a difficult and complex process. We remain confident in BBSI''s management team and in the Company''s continued ability to prosper and deliver value to shareholders."
Following the conclusion of the investigation, BBSI''s management is in the process of analyzing whether matters related to this event will require a restatement of the Company''s financial statements for the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, 2014.
The Company intends to file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as practicable after this matter is resolved and Moss Adams has had an opportunity to finalize its review of the Company''s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements to be included in that report.
