Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
(a) On January 16, 2007, the Audit Committee of Rydex Specialized Products LLC (the Sponsor), sponsor of CurrencySharesSM Swiss Franc Trust (the Trust), concluded that the Trust will amend its previously filed report for the quarterly period ended July 31, 2006 (the Quarterly Report). The Sponsor intends to amend the Quarterly Report to correct inaccuracies resulting from an error in accounting for the portion of Swiss Francs received in basket creations and paid out in basket redemptions that related to accrued interest. These payments were included in the calculation of interest income of the Trust, rather than redeemable capital shares. In the interim, investors should no longer rely on the financial statements currently on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the period indicated above.
This error did not affect the reported net asset value of the Trust or distributions made to holders of the Trusts shares.
The estimated earnings impact is as set forth below:
Interest Income | Interest Income | |
Fiscal Period | as Previously Reported | as Restated |
Inception to Date July 31, 2006 | $12,055 | $10,470 |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share | |
Fiscal Period | as Previously Reported | as Restated |
Inception to Date July 31, 2006 | $0.06 | $0.05 |
The Sponsors management and a member and representative of the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed above with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Trusts independent registered public accounting firm.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
