Item 4.02(a) Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On April 29, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Logiq, Inc. (the “Company”) concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management, that the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements as of December 31, 2022, as well as the unaudited interim financial statements for the first three quarterly periods of the year ended December 31, 2023, (together, the “Affected Periods”) should be restated and accordingly, should no longer be relied upon. Similarly, any previously furnished or filed reports, related earnings releases, investor presentations or similar communications of the Company describing the Company’s financial results for the Affected Periods should no longer be relied upon.
On January 27, 2022, GoLogiq, Inc. (then named Lovarra)(“GoLogiq”) acquired the AppLogiq/Createapp business from the Company, and GoLogiq accounted for it as a business combination. As GoLogiq was a nonoperating public shell corporation at that time, and despite having some intellectual property and a business plan, was not producing any outputs nor generating business revenue and, therefore, did not meet the definition of a business. Thus, GoLogiq determined that the transaction should not be considered a business combination. Instead, this type of transaction is considered to be a capital transaction of the legal a
cquiree and is equivalent to the issuance of shares by the private entity for the net monetary assets of the public shell corporation (Lovarra) accompanied by a recapitalization.
Subsequent to the filing of the periodic reports for the Affected Periods, the Company determined that it had not properly valued intangible assets associated with the former wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, GoLogiq, and improperly treated the reverse acquisition of CreateApp business on January 27, 2022 within the reporting of subsequent events. The Company will now reflect the effects of the restatement by GoLogiq
in
its financial statements for the Affected Periods, and the Company will reverse its impairment loss for CreateApp in its December 31, 2022 financial statements
The Board has discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with its current auditor Centurion ZD CPA & Co., the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, to conduct a re-audit of the affected financial statements.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
