Item 4.02.
|
Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
|
On April 12, 2021, the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) released a public statement (the “Public Statement”) on accounting and reporting
considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). The SEC’s Public Statement discussed
“certain features of warrants issued in SPAC transactions” that “may be common across many entities.” The Public
Statement indicated that when one or more of such features is included in a warrant, the warrant “should be classified as a liability
measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings.”
On May 19, 2021, Aurora
Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”, we”, “our” or “us”) determined that the Company incorrectly
classified the public warrants and private placement warrants issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the
“Warrants”) as equity instruments in the previously issued financial statements as of March 8, 2021 included in the Company’s
current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2021 (the “ Original Financial Statements”). As a result, the Warrants
should be recorded as liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis in accordance
with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations.
The Company’s accounting
for the Warrants as components of equity instead of as derivative liabilities did not have any effect on the Company’s previously
reported investments held in trust, operating expenses, cash flows or cash.
As a result, on May 19,
2021, after discussion with Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Company’s audit committee
and board of directors concluded that the Original Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and are to be restated in order
to correct the classification error as well as the fair value re-measurements, and align with the SEC’s Public Statement. Accordingly,
the Company will disclose the impact of such restatements on its Original Financial Statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which
the Company will file with the SEC as soon as practicable.
The Company will restate
the Original Financial Statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021 to reflect the Warrants as
derivative liabilities and will continue to do so in its future financial statements.
The Company’s audit
committee has discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02(a) with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm,
Marcum LLP.
