Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
As previously disclosed, on February 8, 2022 (the “Closing Date
”
or “Closing”), Quanergy Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Quanergy”) consummated the business combination (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 21, 2021 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among CITIC Capital Acquisition Corp. (“CCAC”), CITIC Capital Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), and Quanergy Systems, Inc., (“Legacy Quanergy”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination between the Company and Legacy Quanergy was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy Quanergy, with Legacy Quanergy continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On the Closing Date, the registrant changed its name from CITIC Capital Acquisition Corp. to Quanergy Systems, Inc. On January 28, 2022, Legacy Quanergy changed its corporate name to Quanergy Perception Technologies, Inc. On January 31, 2022, the Company’s shareholders approved the change of CCAC’s jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and domesticating and continuing as a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The Company is filing the attached Exhibit 99.1 to recast Quanergy Systems, Inc. consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021 to retrospectively reflect the effects of the reverse recapitalization that occurred in connection with the Merger, as described below. Exhibit 99.1 is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under U.S. GAAP with CCAC treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the financial statements of the Company represent the combined entities, post Business Combination, with the Merger being treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing stock for the net assets of CCAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. All periods prior to the Merger have been retrospectively adjusted using the exchange ratio of approximately 3.8799 for the equivalent number of common and preferred shares outstanding (except Series B and Series C preferred stock) immediately after the Merger to effect the reverse recapitalization. Series B and Series C preferred shares were adjusted using an exchange ratio of 11.5423 and 14.3118, respectively.
The audited consolidated financial statements of Quanergy Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 included herein as Exhibit 99.1 update the audited consolidated financial statements of Quanergy Systems, Inc. included in Item 9.01 of the Company’s Current Report on Form
8-K/A
