(InfoWorld) - Dell told government regulators on Monday that it cannot file a financial statement for its 401(k) plan, as the company continues to struggle with an investigation of its accounting practices. Dell hasÂ missed the deadlines for filingÂ its past three quarterly earnings reports, called Form 10-Qs, and its annual report, Form 10-K. That has earned it a series of warnings that the Nasdaq stock exchange may stop trading Dell securities. The company's trouble started last year when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission began an investigation into Dell's accounting practices. The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York has launched a similar effort. To comply with investigators' demands, Dell initiated an internal audit, which has already foundÂ evidence of misconduct and accounting errors. As long as those investigations continue, Dell says its earnings reports will be only preliminary, not officially audited. The company has not yet decided whether it will have to restate past figures, but said in June it was nearing the end of its internal inspection. In the meantime, the company's results continue to sour, as Dell falls farther behind rival Hewlett-Packard in market share. In an effort to recapture profit, DellÂ announced deep layoffs in May, cutting 10 percent of its 88,100 jobs. The latest form Dell missed is for a financial statement called Form 11-k, describing the status of the 401(k) retirement savings plan for Dell Inc. and for Dell Financial Services LP. The company declined to file it because of the ongoing investigation, the same reason it gave for missed deadlines to file recent quarterly earnings reports, said Dell spokesman Bob Pearson. Dell missed the deadline "due to the questions raised in connection with the independent investigation being conducted by the Audit Committee of the company's Board of Directors," the company said in an SEC filing submitted Monday. "Management is committed to resolving the issues raised in connection with the investigation, and is working diligently to file the delayed reports as soon as possible," Dell said. Â

(InfoWorld) - The Nasdaq stock market has granted a request from Dell toÂ extend a deadline for filing late reportsÂ with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the company announced. Dell now has until July 16 to file its past three quarterly earnings reports, called Form 10-Qs, and its annual report, Form 10-K, but the company will ask for more time as it continues an investigation into past accounting practices, said David Frink, a company spokesman. Nasdaq has warned that the company could face delisting for the delinquent reports. Asked what could happen if Nasdaq does not extend the deadline again, Frink said, "I'm not going to speculate on that." Dell has "every reason to believe" Nasdaq will review the request, and past precedence exists for an extension, he said. The SEC began an investigation into Dell's accounting practices last year, and the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York has begun an investigation as well. Dell launched an internal audit and foundÂ evidence of misconduct and accounting errors. The company continues to comply with the SEC investigation, Frink said Thursday. The company is moving toward a conclusion of its internal investigation, he added. Nasdaq officials were not immediately available for comment on the Dell extension.
