Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On ~~January~~May 319, 2007, Cholestech Corporation (“Cholestech”) is issuing a press release and holding a conference call regarding its financial results for the ~~third~~fourth quarter ended March ~~December 29~~30, ~~2006~~2007. A copy of the ~~press~~ press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we ~~Cholestech~~use ~~uses~~ non-GAAP measures of operating results, net income and net income per diluted share, which are adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude SFAS 123R stock based compensation expenses and prior year expenses incurred in connection with the Boule transaction. This non-GAAP financial presentation is given in part to enhance the understanding of the Company’s historical financial performance and comparability between periods in light of a change in accounting standards and operating expenses incurred in connection with the Boule transaction that are not indicative of the Company’s core operating results, particularly since the Company has not included stock-based compensation under SFAS 123R as an expense in financial statements before. In addition, the Company believes that the non-GAAP presentation to exclude stock-based compensation is relevant and useful information that will be widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties. Cash earnings is not a GAAP defined measure. The Company believes this measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding Cholestech’s operating results given the current accumulated tax loss carryforwards and because it excludes amounts that are not related to Cholestech’s core operating results and facilitate the comparison of results for the current period with results for past periods. Further, these non-GAAP results are one of the primary indicators management uses for assessing our performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods. Accordingly, the Company is disclosing this information to permit additional analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
