As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 13, 2022, on December 13, 2022, Quanergy Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a voluntary petition (Case No. 22-11305) for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (such court, the “Bankruptcy Court” and such case, the “Case”).
On October 19, 2023, the Company filed its monthly operating report with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the period beginning September 01, 2023 and ending September 30, 2023 (the “Monthly Operating Report”). The Monthly Operating Report is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Cautionary Note Regarding the Monthly Operating Report
The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any Company securities. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly Operating Report was not reviewed by independent accountants, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and is subject to future adjustment. The financial information in the Monthly Operating Report is not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and, therefore, may exclude items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals, valuations and disclosures. The Monthly Operating Report also relates to a period that is different from the historical periods required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Cautionary Note Regarding Trading in the Company’s Securities
The Company cautions that trading in the Company’s securities during the pendency of the Case is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders of the Company’s securities in the Case. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities.
