Item 4.02. | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. |
On November 10, 2021, Dynamics Special Purpose Corp. (the “Company”) filed its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2021 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”), which included in Note 2, Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements, (“Note 2”) a discussion of the revision to a portion of the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the classification of its Class A common stock subject to redemption issued as part of the shares sold in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) on May 28, 2021. As described in Note 2, upon its IPO, the Company classified a portion of the Class A common stock subject to redemption as permanent equity to maintain net tangible assets greater than $5,000,000 on the basis that the Company will consummate its initial business combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. The Company’s management re-evaluated the conclusion and determined that the Class A common stock subject to redemption included certain provisions that require classification of the Class A common stock subject to redemption as temporary equity regardless of the minimum net tangible assets required to complete the Company’s initial business combination. As a result, management corrected the error by revising all Class A common stock subject to redemption as temporary equity. This resulted in an adjustment to the initial carrying value of the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital (to the extent available), accumulated deficit and Class A common stock.
As described above, originally the Company determined the changes were not qualitatively material to the Company’s previously issued financial statements and revised its previously issued financial statements in Note 2 to its Q3 Form 10-Q. However, upon further consideration of the material nature of the changes, the Company determined the change in classification of the Class A common stock subject to redemption and change to its presentation of earnings per share is material quantitatively and the Company should restate its previously issued financial statements.
Therefore, on December 9, 2021, the audit committee of the board of directors of the Company concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management, that the Company’s previously issued (i) audited balance sheet as of May 28, 2021, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 4, 2021 (the “Form 8-K”), (ii) unaudited interim financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 6, 2021 (the “Q2 Form 10-Q”), and (iii) unaudited interim financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on November 10, 2021 (collectively, the “Affected Periods”), should be restated and should no longer be relied upon.
Additionally, the Company’s management determined that it is appropriate to file amendments to its audited balance sheet as of May 28, 2021, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 4, 2021 and its unaudited interim financial statements included in the Q2 and Q3 Form 10-Qs for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021 as filed with the SEC on August 6, 2021 and November 10, 2021 reflecting the restatement of the Class A common stock subject to redemption and change to its presentation of earnings per share for the Affected Periods as soon as practicable.
The Company does not expect any of the above changes will have any impact on its cash position and cash held in the trust account established in connection with the IPO.
After re-evaluation, the Company’s management has concluded that in light of the errors described above, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Affected Periods and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. To address this material weakness, management has devoted, and plans to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of Company’s internal control over financial reporting. While the Company has processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, the management plans to enhance these processes to better evaluate its research and understanding of the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to its financial statements. The Company plans to include providing enhanced access to accounting literature, research materials and documents and increased communication among its personnel and third-party professionals with whom it consults regarding complex accounting applications.
The Audit Committee has discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
