Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
During the preparation of the financial statements of Industrial Human Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, the Company determined that, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”), for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (“Fiscal 2021”), it understated its accrued offering costs in the amount of $120,000 due to an error.
The Company further determined in reviewing the Form 10-K that the second sentence of the first paragraph of Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in the Form 10-K contained the following inaccurate description of the status of the Company’s discussions with potential Business Combination partners:
The Company has not selected any specific Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any Business Combination target.
The foregoing statement was inconsistent with the following description of the status of the Company’s discussions with potential Business Combination partners included in the second and third sentences of the first paragraph of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K, which was accurate when published and remains accurate:
Since completing our initial public offering (“IPO”), we have engaged in confidential discussions with various potential Business Combination partners. Nevertheless, as of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not entered into a binding agreement with any specific Business Combination target.
On May 13, 2022, the Company’s management and the audit committee of its board of directors (the “Audit Committee”), after consultation with Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that its previously issued audited financial statements for Fiscal 2021 contained in its Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2022 should be restated to reflect the following: (i) an increase in Accrued offering costs and expenses of $120,000 (from $211,941 to $331,941); (ii) an increase in Total current liabilities of $120,000 (from $383,231 to $503,231); (iii) a decrease in Additional paid-in capital of $120,000 (from $1,162,031 to $1,042,031); and (iv) a decrease in Total stockholders’ equity of $120,000 (from $485,766 to $365,766). The Audit Committee further concluded that the second sentence of the first paragraph of Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in the Form 10-K should be deleted and replaced with the following, which is consistent with the Company’s disclosure in Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K:
Since completing our initial public offering (“IPO”), we have engaged in confidential discussions with various potential Business Combination partners. Nevertheless, as of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not entered into a binding agreement with any specific Business Combination target.
The Company’s management has concluded that in light of the error described above, a material weakness exists in its internal control over financial reporting with respect to its improper accounting for accruals. Therefore, its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The Company is in the process of evaluating whether additional remediation measures should be implemented with respect to such material weaknesses.
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.
