Note 21 – Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

 

The Company identified material misstatements in its previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 as below, and as a result the Company has restated the previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 in accordance with ASC 250 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, to reflect the effects of the restatement adjustments and to make certain corresponding disclosures.

The categories of adjustments and their impacts on previously issued financial statements are described below and identified in the Restatement Reconciliation Tables in the column entitled “Reference”:

 

a.The Company failed to record the correct cost of the intellectual property purchased from a related party, incorrectly recorded the amortization expense, and incorrectly recorded the liability without considering imputed interest related to the intellectual property purchased. Such failure has resulted in the misstatements of “Intangible assets, net”, “Accumulated deficit” and “Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) profit” as of June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “General and administrative expenses” and “Net loss” for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024.

 

b.The Company incorrectly recorded the merger transaction costs as general and administrative expenses. Such failure has resulted in the misstatements of “Deferred merger costs”, “Additional paid-in capital”, “Accumulated deficit” and “Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) profit” as of June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “General and administrative expenses” and “Net loss” for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

 

c.The Company incorrectly classified other expenses as general and administrative expenses, and under accrued the bonus of the senior management team of Graphjet for the successful business combination and corporate listing, and classified changes in payable to director as operating activities. Such failure has resulted in the misstatements of “Provision for bonus”, “Accumulated deficit” and “Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) profit” as of June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “General and administrative expenses”, “Other expenses, net” and “Net loss” for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “Statements of cash flows” for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

 

d.The Company incorrectly recorded the accounts related to reverse recapitalization. Such failure has resulted in the misstatements of “Balance sheet” as of June 30, 2024, misstatements of “Weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding - basic and diluted” for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “Statements of cash flows” for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

 

e.The Company incorrectly used historical exchange rate to translated certain accounts from Malaysian Ringgit (“RM”) into US$. Such failure has resulted in the misstatements of “Balance sheet” as of June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “Statements of operations and comprehensive loss” for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, and misstatements of “Statements of cash flows” for the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

 

In the following tables, the Company presented a reconciliation of consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and cash flows as previously issued for these prior periods to the restated and revised amounts.
