Here's a quick tip on how your 10-K language may need to change to represent your compliance with the new COSO 2013 standards / Sarbanes-Oxley. Remember, this is due by 12/15/2014, it is not optional, and if you directly reference the 1992 guidance like most companies do, you will need to make this edit.

An Item 9A example from a 10-K shows specific reference to the "1992 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)."

This language will need to be changed to read: "2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)."

The SEC has made it clear that they are not intending into interfere or change the requirements detailed within the COSO 2013 guidance. We at Vibato have made the COSO 2013 Made Simple™ solution that takes all of the guesswork out of this process. The end result is a complete compliance package that is ready for hand-off to your external auditors or other stakeholders.
