Item 4.02(a).

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

A Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (“EFI”) has substantially completed its independent investigation of EFI’s historical stock option granting practices. Although the Special Committee has not yet made any findings or conclusions, based on information obtained by the Special Committee relating to a portion of the historical option grants under review, EFI believes that the actual measurement dates for certain stock option grants made during the period under review differ from the recorded grant dates used for financial accounting and reporting purposes for such options. As EFI believes that the market prices of its stock at the actual measurement dates were higher than the exercise prices of these option grants, EFI expects that it will be required to record additional stock-based compensation expense based on the difference in these amounts. EFI has not yet determined the aggregate amount of the additional non-cash compensation expense it will be required to record or the additional expense to be recorded in any particular fiscal period during that period of time. Until the amount of such adjustments has been determined, EFI cannot ascertain the full resulting tax and accounting impact. However, EFI expects that the difference in these measurement dates will result in material non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, and therefore EFI expects to restate previously issued financial statements as necessary.

Accordingly, on May 1, 2007, EFI concluded that its financial statements, earnings releases and similar communications relating to the period 1992 through June 30, 2006 should no longer be relied upon.

EFI plans to become current in its public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as practicable.

The Audit Committee has discussed the matters disclosed under this Item 4.02(a) with EFI’s independent registered public accounting firm; however, as the Special Committee has not yet made any findings or conclusions, the Special Committee’s findings or conclusions are not yet known to the independent registered public accounting firm.

Additionally, EFI is evaluating Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the impact of this situation on internal controls.

A copy of the press release relating to this announcement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated in this Item 4.02(a) by reference.
