VeriFone (NYSE:PAY) announced yesterday that the company
would be restating its financial results for 2007 following a misevaluation of
the company’s manufacturing and distribution overhead that affects the cost of
revenues. Interestingly, the CEO’s planned sales of 43,300 shares just last
week may make for an interesting coincidence. Meanwhile, the options market
paints a picture of many insiders knowing that something was going to go wrong
soon – with the number of puts open hitting a high.
