NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K,
20-F, 10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be
filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed)
Tokheim Corporation ("the Company") has had significant difficulty
during the finalization of the results for purposes of its Form 10-Q
filing in obtaining sufficiently detailed information. The Company has
consolidated its operations with the global operations of the RPS Division
(the "RPS Division") that the Company acquired on September 30, 1998.
During this consolidation, numerous personnel changes have occurred,
which, combined with the closing of several facilities around the world
and other related consolidation endeavors, has made information retrieval
from foreign operations extremely difficult and time-consuming. This has
delayed our ability to obtain the appropriate information to prepare the
Form 10-Q. The Company expects to have this information available shortly,
and will file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q as soon as practicable
thereafter.
PART IV
OTHER INFORMATION
(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification
John A. Negovetich (219) 470-4600
(Name) (Area Code) (Telephone Number)
(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such
shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been
filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).
(X) Yes ( ) No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report
or portion thereof?
(X) Yes ( ) No
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why
a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Company will experience an estimated net loss of $5.0 million for
the second quarter of 1999, compared with a net loss of $2.9 million for
the second quarter of 1998. The primary reason for this is the increased
interest, depreciation and amortization charges associated with the
acquisition of the RPS Division, which was acquired by the Company on
September 30, 1998.
