Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

(a)           On June 29, 2006, the management of Raining Data Corporation (the “Company”), in consultation with its Board of Directors and Audit Committee, determined that previously issued financial statements for fiscal years 2003 through 2005 and the related interim periods should not be relied upon.

During the course of the annual audit for fiscal year 2006 ended March 31, 2006, the Company discovered the following:

The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” on April 1, 2002. Prior to adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company had recorded a deferred tax liability related to an assembled workforce intangible asset resulting from the acquisition of PickAx in December 2000. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, this deferred tax liability should have been reclassified to goodwill, but was not. Had the deferred tax liability been reclassified to goodwill, it would have created a need to increase the Company’s valuation allowance for deferred tax assets by approximately $450,000 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, with a corresponding charge to income tax expense. Therefore, the Company’s net loss reported for the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 was understated by approximately $450,000. Additionally, goodwill, total assets, and stockholders’ equity have been overstated and accumulated deficit has been understated in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2002 and thereafter.

The Company is in the process of determining the exact amount of the adjustment, and has concluded that it could not prepare the financial statements required to be included in the Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 within the time period prescribed for filing such form without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company has filed a Form 12b-25 and intends to file the Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

The Company’s management and Audit Committee have discussed the conclusions disclosed in this Form 8-K with its independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP.
