Simon Property Group Acquisition Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 on a timely basis because of uncertainty relating to the accounting for its outstanding warrants.

 

On April 12, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued a statement (the “Statement”) on the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). The Statement referenced the guidance included in U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles that entities must consider in determining whether to classify contracts that may be settled in its own stock, such as warrants, as equity or as an asset or liability.

 

After considering the Statement, the management of Company is in the process of re-evaluating, together with its independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP, the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors, its valuation firm and its legal advisors, the Company’s historical accounting for (i) the 6,900,000 redeemable warrants (the “Public Warrants”) that were included in the units issued by the Company in its initial public offering and (ii) the 5,933,333 redeemable warrants (together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) that were issued to the Company’s sponsors in a private placement that closed concurrently with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering. At that time, the Warrants were presented within equity.

 

The Company anticipates that it will file its Form 10-Q within the five-day grace period provided by Exchange Act Rule 12b-25.
