Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
(a) On April 12, 2021, the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued a public statement entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose
Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”)” (the “Staff Statement”). In the Staff Statement, the Staff, among other things, highlighted potential accounting implications of certain terms and conditions that are common in warrants issued in connection with
the initial public offerings of special purpose acquisition companies, such as the warrants (the “Warrants”) issued by Jensyn Acquisition Corp. the predecessor of iSun, Inc. (the “Company”). In the Staff Statement, the Staff expressed its view
that the terms and conditions of such warrants may require the warrants to be accounted for as liabilities within the Company balance sheet. Since the initial public offering of the Company the Warrants issued by the Company were accounted for as
equity within the Company’s balance sheet.
Upon review of the Staff Statement, the Company’s management further evaluated the Warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. ASC Section 815-40-15
addresses equity versus liability treatment and classification of equity-linked financial instruments, including warrants, and states that a warrant may be classified as a component of equity only if, among other things, the warrant is indexed to
the issuer’s common stock. Based on the Company’s management’s evaluation, the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”), in consultation with the Company’s management and a discussion with the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP (‘Marcum”), the Audit Committee concluded that the Company’s Warrants are not indexed to the Company’s common stock in the manner contemplated by ASC Section 815-40-15.
On May 20, 2021, the Audit Committee, based on the recommendation of and after consultation with the Company’s management and as discussed with Marcum, concluded that the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the years ended
December 31, 2020 and 2019 (the “Non-Reliance Period”) as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with SEC on March 15, 2021 should no longer be relied upon due to the misclassification of the Company’s outstanding Warrants,
estimated to be approximately $3.1 million, as components of equity instead of liabilities along with any communications describing the relevant portions of the Company’s financial statements for the Non-Reliance Period should no longer be relied
upon.
As a result, the Company will restate (the “Restatement”) its historical financial results for the Non-Reliance Period to reflect the classification of the Warrants as liabilities, along with the quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 30,
2020 and 2019, September 30, 2020 and 2019 and March 31, 2020. The Company will file an amendment to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 to reflect the Restatement as soon as practicable after the date hereof. Going
forward, the Company expects to continue to classify all outstanding Warrants as liabilities, which will require the Company to incur the cost of measuring the fair value of the outstanding Warrants. The change in the fair value of the Warrants
will be a non-cash charge and will be reflected in the Company’s statement of operations.
The Audit Committee and the Company’s management have discussed the matters disclosed pursuant to this Item 4.02(a) with Marcum.
