As defined by the SEC, the Form 8-K is a filing that "REAL" companies make to "announce major events that shareholders should know about."

Generally speaking, a Form 8-K is filed with the SEC by a publicly traded company when an "unscheduled" material event takes place.

Some of the situations in which a company would file an 8-K include:

-bankruptcy
-departure of a key executive (such as the CEO)
-notice of delisting
-change in accountant
-announcement of a new deal

All of these would require a company to file an 8-K with the SEC within four business days of the occurrence of the event.

All reporting companies that i know of would have been filing 8k's to the SEC. By not doing it, you leave the door open to nothing happening and all the safe harbor BS.
