Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
In connection with the preparation of the financial statements of Viveon Health Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2021, the Company’s management and the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors in consultation with Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (“Marcum”), identified the need to revise the Company’s prior position on accounting for redeemable common stock and restate the Company’s December 28, 2020, December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021 financial statements to reclassify its redeemable common stock outside of permanent equity.
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and its staff’s guidance on redeemable equity instruments, which has been codified in ASC 480-10-S99, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require common stock subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. The Company had previously classified a portion of its common stock issued in connection with the Company’s Initial Public Offering (the “Public Common Stock”) in permanent equity. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that currently, the Company will not redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.
Management concluded that a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting existed relating to the accounting treatment for complex financial instruments and that the failure to properly account for such instruments constituted a material weakness as defined in the SEC regulations.
In light of this material weakness, on November 15, 2021, the Company’s management and the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, concluded that the Company’s financial statements as of and for the periods ended December 28, 2020, December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021, and June 30, 2021 should no longer be relied upon and that it is appropriate to restate the Company’s financial statements for such periods. Accordingly, the Company will restate such financial statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021 to be filed with the SEC as soon as practicable, to classify all Public Common Stock as temporary equity at redemption value and any related impact, as the threshold in its charter would not change the nature of the underlying shares as redeemable and thus would be required to be classified outside of permanent equity.
The reclassification of amounts from permanent equity to temporary equity will result in non-cash financial statement corrections and will have no impact on the Company’s current or previously reported cash position, operating expenses or total operating, investing or financing cash flows. In connection with the change in presentation for the Public Common Stock subject to possible redemption, the Company will restate its earnings per share calculation to allocate income and losses pro rata between redeemable and nonredeemable common stock. This presentation contemplates a business combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, redeemable and nonredeemable common stock share pro rata in the income and losses of the Company.
The Company’s management and the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Marcum.
