Item 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. |
dMY Technology Group, Inc. VI (the “Company” or “dMY VI”) had previously recognized a liability upon closing of its initial public offering in October 2021 for a portion of the underwriter’s commissions which was contingently payable upon closing of a future business combination, with the offsetting entry resulting in an initial discount to the securities sold in the initial public offering. The underwriter waived all claim to this deferred commission in November 2022. The Company recognized the waiver as an extinguishment, with a resulting non-operating gain recognized in its statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. Upon subsequent review and analysis, management concluded that the Company should have recognized the extinguishment of the contingent liability as a credit to stockholders’ deficit.
Therefore, the Company’s management and the audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) concluded that the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 3, 2023 (the “Original Filing”) should no longer be relied upon and that it is appropriate to restate the Annual Report. As a result, the Company today is announcing that it will restate the dMY VI 10-K on Form 10-K/A to reflect the change in accounting treatment.
The Audit Committee and dMY VI management have discussed the matters disclosed pursuant to this Item 4.02(a) with the Company’s independent accountant.
The Company’s management has concluded that a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (“Amendment No. 1”) to include additional risk factors under Item 1A, the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation described in Item 7, and Financial Statements and Supplementary Data described in Item 8, which such financial data give effect to the change in accounting for the waiver as disclosed in the Original Filing, and Item 9A, Controls and Procedures.
The change in accounting for the liability extinguishment did not have any impact on the Company’s liquidity, cash flows, costs of operating in the period included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in the Original Filing. The change in accounting for the liability extinguishment does not impact the amounts previously reported for the Company’s cash, investments held in trust account, operating expenses or total cash flows from operations for the affected period.
In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Item 1A, Risk Factors, is hereby amended to add additional risk factors, and Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, and Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the Original Filing are hereby amended and restated in their entirety. This Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and with the Company’s other filings with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing.
