This is a normal FTC settlement - nothing special.
The FTC in these actions is attempting to protect the stockholders, and their feeling is the stockholders would be hurt by punishment, so for this sort of case, this is the normal settlement. Only in extreme and unusual cases would fines and penalties be applied.
This is a routine "cookie jar reserve" situation and does not affect Microsoft's overall figures, so no restatement is needed. What it did is smooth out the revenue curve, and the FTC and exchanges feel stockholders would rather see the detail at "higher resolution".
