If you restore the database and you haven't loaded a backup of the encryption key (through the front end), it won't be able to decrypt the secured content in the database. It will still run reports without a problem, but the encrypted content includes things like logins and passwords.<br />
<br />
If you delete all encrypted content (as it's suggesting), that just means that you'll have to re-enter any saved passwords that you have attached to those reports.

SQL reporting is Broke

SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is a server-based report generation software system from Microsoft. It can prepare and deliver a variety of interactive and printed reports and is administered via a web interface or its web service. Its web services interface also supports the development of custom reporting applications. Finally, SSRS can also be integrated with SharePoint. SSRS competes with other business intelligence tools, most prominently Crystal Reports.

SSRS

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality. Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning.
