Touchstone Applied Science Associates has announced it has told regulators that it needs more time to prepare its annual financial statement citing an “unusually time-consuming effort� in accounting for an aquisition as partly to blame for the delay.

In making the announcement, the company said expects to file its annual report for the fiscal year ending Oct. 31 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or before Feb. 15.
