2.RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Subsequent to the initial issuance of the Company's 2021 financial statements on October 26, 2022, management identified certain errors and other items requiring restatement of 2021 amounts.

 

The Company agreed to issue 818,750 additional shares of series J Preferred Stock with an aggregate stated value equal to $3,275,000 if, as of May 31, 2022, Nova’s trailing twelve months minimum pre-tax net income exceeded $1,979,320 (the “Milestone”). The Company finalized its purchase price accounting and allocation in 2022 and recorded purchase consideration of $6,100,000 associated with the cash consideration, the fair value of the series J preferred stock and the fair value of the contingent consideration. The impact of the correction is reflected in $3,275,000 increase to goodwill and contingent consideration liability on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

In December 2022, the Company identified an error in its classification for its series N senior convertible preferred stock for the acquisition of NOVA as presented in its audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. Pursuant to ASC 250, “Accounting changes and error corrections” issued by FASB and SAB 99 “Materiality” issued by SEC, the Company determined the impact of the error was immaterial. The impact of the error correction is reflected in $3,125,002 increase to the mezzanine equity and offsetting decrease to the Series N Preferred Stock equity line item.

 

The Company and We3 managers entered into a resignation, release and buyback agreement and addendum, effective October 31, 2022. The Company presented in prior periods operating loss as loss from discontinued operations in the amount of $49,300 on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The Company identified that NOVA’s accounts receivable as presented in its balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, was understated due to an error in the collection utilized to estimate NOVA’s accounts receivable. The impact of this correction on the accounting estimates is reflected in $1,076,000 increase to accounts receivable as of December 31, 2021 and $1,076,000 decrease in finance charges for the year ended December 31, 2021.
