MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Merge Healthcare Incorporated (NASDAQ:MRGE)(TSX:MRG), today announced that it is delaying the filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the “2007 Form 10-K”). The delay is a result of the Company’s restatement of its 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K and first quarter 2007 Quarterly Report on Form 2007 10-Q, which caused the Company to be late in filing its second and third quarter 2007 Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The restatement is now complete, but the delay in filing the 2007 Quarterly Reports has caused the Company to be unable to file the 2007 Form 10-K by the March 17, 2008 deadline.
