Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
The information set forth under Item 4.02 is incorporated into this Item 2.02 by reference.
Item 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. |
On April 12, 2021, 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 “Statement”). In the Statement, the SEC staff expressed its view that certain terms and conditions common to SPAC warrants may require the warrants to be classified as liabilities on the SPAC’s balance sheet as opposed to equity. Since issuance on March 15, 2018, the outstanding warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase common stock of Lazydays Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) were accounted for as equity within the Company’s financial statements, and after discussion and evaluation, including with the Company’s independent auditors, the Company has concluded that its Private Placement Warrants and Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) warrants (the “Private Warrants”) should be presented as liabilities as of the IPO date or date of issuance, if issued subsequent to the IPO Date, reported at fair value with subsequent fair value remeasurement at each reporting period. The Company’s conclusion is that public warrants issued pursuant to its initial public offering (the “Public Warrants”) should continue to be properly presented as equity.
On May 18, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management, that the Company’s (i) audited financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020; and (ii) unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the periods ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018, September 30, 2018, March 31, 2019, June 30, 2019, September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 (collectively, the “Non-Reliance Period”) should no longer be relied upon due to changes required to reclassify the Private Warrants as liabilities to align with the requirements set forth in the Statement. The Company has discussed this approach and the matters disclosed in this Form 8-K with its independent registered public accounting firm for the Non-Reliance Period, Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), and will file an amendment (the “Amended Form 10-K”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 19, 2021 (“Original Form 10-K”) reflecting this reclassification of the Private Warrants for the Non-Reliance Period.
Similarly, press releases, earnings releases, Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020 , Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018, September 30, 2018, March 31, 2019, June 30, 2019, September 30, 2019, March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020 filed with the SEC and investor presentations or other communications describing the Company’s financial statements and other related financial information covering the Non-Reliance Period should no longer be relied upon. In addition, the audit report of Marcum included in the Company’s Original Form 10-K and the Company’s Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019 should no longer be relied upon.

Lazydays Holdings, Inc. Announces Response to SEC Guidance Issued on April 12, 2021 Applicable to Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”)
Tampa, FL (May 24, 2021) – Lazydays Holdings, Inc. (“Lazydays” or the “Company”) (NasdaqCM: LAZY) today announced in a Current Report on Form 8-K, that as a result of recent guidance provided by the SEC on April 12, 2021 (see Link) for all SPAC-related companies regarding the accounting and reporting for their warrants (the “SEC Statement”), it will restate its previously issued 2020 10-K filing including 2019 and 2020 consolidated financial statements.
Based on a technical analysis by the Company in consultation of third party advisors, the Company has determined that it is necessary to complete the restatement described below. This restatement is subject to audit by Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent auditors for the 2020 10-K.
The anticipated restatement pertains to the warrants issued in conjunction with the Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) transaction that occurred at the same time as the Company’s SPAC merger (“PIPE Warrants”) and Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with the IPO ( “Private SPAC Warrants”). Consistent with market practice among SPACs, we had been accounting for the warrants as equity under a fixed accounting model. However, based on the April 12 SEC Statement, we intend to restate historical financial statements such that the PIPE Warrants and Private SPAC Warrants are accounted for as liabilities and marked-to-market each reporting period (the “restatement”). In general, under the mark-to-market accounting model, as our stock price increases, the warrant liability increases, and we recognize additional non-operating expense in our income statement – with the opposite effect when our stock price declines. As of March 31, 2021, we have PIPE Warrants convertible to approximately 1.5 million shares of common stock outstanding, which represent approximately 58% of the PIPE Warrants originally issued and Private SPAC Warrants convertible to 155,000 shares of common stock outstanding which represents 100% of the Private SPAC Warrants originally issued.
The Company’s analysis indicates that the Public warrants issued in relation to the Company’s SPAC merger transaction (“Public SPAC Warrants”) are not impacted, and will continue to be accounted for as equity.
The Company anticipates the restatement will have no impact on its previously communicated revenue, gross profit, income from operations and net cash provided by operating activities, for 2018, 2019 or 2020. The Company further expects there to be no impact on previously reported adjusted EBITDA.
As a result of the restatement and the movements in our stock price since the SPAC merger transaction in March, 2018, we expect to recognize 2018 incremental non-operating income between $4.2 to $4.6 million, incremental 2019 non-operating income between $3.5 to $4.0 million, and 2020 incremental non-operating expense between $14.0 to $14.8 million. The anticipated impact in the first quarter of 2021 is a non-operating expense of between $6.0 and $6.5 million. There will be no impact to our previously reported net cash flow.
The following provides additional detail regarding how we currently anticipate the restatement will impact our various financial statements:
● | Opening Balance Sheet Impact: As of the date of our business combination (March 15, 2018) (the “Business Combination”), the approximately $9.0 million fair value of the PIPE Warrants and Private SPAC Warrants will be reflected as warrant liabilities in our balance sheet with a corresponding offset in additional paid-in-capital within equity. |
● | Income Statement Impacts: Subsequent to the close of the Business Combination, any change in the fair value of the public and private warrants is recognized in our income statement below operating profit as “Change in fair value of warrant liabilities” with a corresponding amount recognized in our balance sheet. (In our case, this is recognized as warrant liabilities in the long term liabilities section in our balance sheet). | |
● | Balance Sheet Impacts: As is noted above, the change in the balance of the warrant liabilities on our balance sheet is impacted by the fair value changes of the warrants. When warrants are exercised, the fair value of the liability at the exercise date is reclassified to Additional paid-in capital within equity. | |
● | Cash Flow Impacts: The impact of the changes in fair value of the warrants has no impact on net cash provided by (used for) operating activities. The cash received for the exercise of warrants is reflected in cash flows from financing activities. | |
● | Statement of Equity Impacts: The impact to Additional paid-in-capital as of the opening balance sheet is highlighted above. Subsequent exercises of the warrants result in a reduction of our warrant liabilities with a corresponding increase to Additional paid-in-capital. |
As previously mentioned, the Company’s analysis indicates that the Public SPAC Warrants are not impacted, and will continue to be accounted for as equity. If after audit and review it were determined that some or all of these additional SPAC warrants should also be accounted for as liabilities, the Company would make additional adjustment and restatements as necessary. Again, there would be no impact to our previously reported net cash flow.
These estimates are subject to change as management completes the restatement, and our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed these estimates. As a result, the expected financial impact described above is preliminary and subject to change. Because the Company must complete restatements and file amendments to prior period 10-K filings prior to completing its first quarter, 2021 10-Q filing, the Company expects that the first quarter 10-Q filing will occur after the May 24 extended due date. The company cannot make a determination of expected disclosure dates until it completes an analysis of the scope and presentation of the restatements, in consultation with its auditors.
