EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Stratim Cloud Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on this Form 8-K/A for the Initial Public Offering date of March 16, 2021 (the “First Amendment”), as originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2021 (the “Original Form 8-K”) to amend and restate the Company’s audited balance sheet and accompanying footnotes as of March 16, 2021 on Form 8-K, as further described below.

This amended and restated report on Form 8-K/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 8-K and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement as described below. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the date on which we filed the Original Form 8-K.

The Company is filing this First Amendment on Form 8-K/A to reflect a restatement of the Company’s audited balance sheet as of March 16, 2021, to correct errors in the Company’s accounting for complex financial instruments. 

 

Background of Restatement

 

The Company has re-evaluated the Company’s application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its accounting classification of the redeemable Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Public Shares”), issued as part of the units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) on March 16, 2021. Historically, a portion of the Public Shares were classified as permanent equity to maintain stockholders’ equity greater than $5 million on the basis that 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, as described in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”). Pursuant to such re-evaluation, the Company’s management has determined that the Public Shares include certain provisions that require classification of all of the Public Shares as temporary equity regardless of the net tangible assets redemption limitation contained in the Charter. In addition, in connection with the change in presentation for the Public Shares, the Company determined it should restate its earnings per share calculation to allocate income and losses shared pro rata between the two classes of common stock. This presentation contemplates a Business Combination as the most likely outcome, in which case, both classes of common stock share pro rata in the income and losses of the Company.

 

As a result, the Company’s management, together with the Audit Committee, determined on January 25, 2022, that the Company’s financial statements and other financial data as of March 16, 2021 included in the Company’s IPO Form 8-K for the period ended March 16, 2021 should be restated in this Form 8-K/A as a result of this error. This restatement results in non-cash, non-operating 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 addition to the equity corrections presented within the financial statements and notes to the financial states noted above and within Note 2b, the Company also restated its financial statements and other financial data as of March 16, 2021 for the classification of warrants as liabilities under ASC Section 815-40-15. These changes are summarized in Note 2a of the notes to the financial statements. This restatement results in non-cash impacts on the Company’s balance sheet.

 

The financial information that has been previously filed or otherwise reported for this period is superseded by the information in this Form 8-K/A, and the financial statements and related financial information contained in the Original IPO 8-K should no longer be relied upon. On January 26, 2022, the Company filed a report on Form 8-K disclosing the non-reliance on the financial statements included in the Original IPO 8-K.

 

Internal Control Considerations

 

In connection with the restatement, management has re-evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of March 16, 2021. The Company’s management has concluded that, in light of the errors described above, a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result thereof. Additionally, the Company has concluded that financial reporting controls over corporate governance were ineffective and that a material weakness exists as of March 16, 2021. Management plans to enhance the system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our financial statements, including enhanced training of our personnel and increased communication among our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding application of complex financial instruments. Management is also designing and implementing additional corporate governance controls to mitigate issues related to financial reporting.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On March 16, 2021, Stratim Cloud Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 25,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of the Company. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $250,000,000.

 

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 4,666,667 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) to the Company’s sponsor, Stratim Cloud Acquisition LLC (the “Sponsor”), at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $7,000,000.

 

A total of $250,000,000, comprised of proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. An audited balance sheet as of March 16, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
