EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Tech and Energy Transition Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) to amend and restate the Company’s audited balance sheet as of March 19, 2021 that had been filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 25, 2021 (the “Original 8-K”). The audited balance sheet is being restated to reflect the classification of (i) the Company’s Class A common stock as temporary equity in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99 and (ii) the Company’s private placement warrants and public warrants (collectively, the “warrants”) as a liability, in accordance with the SEC’s April 12, 2021 public statement informing market participants that warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies may need to be classified as a liability as opposed to equity, and being measured at fair value, with changes in fair value reported each period in earnings. The Company had previously classified a portion of its Class A common stock as permanent equity and its warrants as equity within the Original 8-K.

On November 15, 2021, after discussion with Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Company’s audit committee and board of directors concluded that the Original 8-K should no longer be relied upon and is to be restated in order to correct the classification errors. The correction of the aforementioned classification of the Class A common stock as temporary equity and of the warrants as a liability are reflected in Exhibit 99.1 included with this Amendment. 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. The Company’s controls over financial reporting did not provide for the proper classifications of the Class A common stock and the warrants within the Company’s financial statements. As such, these represented material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls.

Except as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change any other disclosures in the Original 8-K. In addition, the information contained in this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original 8-K and does not modify or update the disclosures therein, except as specifically identified above. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original 8-K have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the date of the Original 8-K, other than as described herein, and such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s filings with the SEC.
