Item
2.02. Results of Operations
and Financial Condition.
On July 27, 2010, Rocky Brands, Inc.
(the “Company”) issued a press release entitled “Rocky Brands, Inc. Announces
Second Quarter Fiscal 2010 Results” regarding its consolidated financial results
for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. A copy of the Company’s press
release is furnished as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein
by reference.
The information in this Form 8-K and
accompanying press release is being furnished under Item 2.02 and shall not be
deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of
such section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in
any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall
be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
The information contained or
incorporated by reference in this Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which are intended to be covered
by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements include, but
may not be limited to, all statements regarding intent, beliefs, expectations,
projections, forecasts, and plans of the Company and its management and include
statements in the accompanying press release regarding reduction of interest
expense and future growth opportunities (paragraph 3). These
forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including,
without limitation, the various risks inherent in the Company’s business as set
forth in periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2009 (filed March 2, 2010), and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 (filed May 3, 2010). One or more
of these factors have affected historical results, and could in the future
affect the Company’s businesses and financial results in future periods and
could cause actual results to differ materially from plans and projections.
Therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements
contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 8-K will prove to be
accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the
forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference herein, the
Company, or any other person should not regard the inclusion of such information
as a representation that the objectives and plans of the Company will be
achieved. All forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by
reference in this Form 8-K are based on information presently available to the
management of the Company. The Company assumes no obligation to
update any forward-looking statements.
