Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On April 12, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Abpro Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), in consultation with Company management, determined that the Company’s financial statements (collectively, the “Prior Period Financial Statements”) as of the periods ended September 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (collectively, the “Non-Reliance Periods”) should no longer be relied upon. Management and the Audit Committee have determined that the errors described below in the consolidated financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods noted above require a restatement of the Prior Period Financial Statements (the “Restatement”). Accordingly, investors should no longer rely upon the Company’s previously released financial statements for these periods and any earnings releases or other communications relating to these periods.
During the preparation of Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company identified prior period accounting errors resulting from the understatement of liabilities under one of its license agreements. For each Non-Reliance Period, the estimated impact of the restatement of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets is expected to increase accrued expenses, total liabilities and accumulated deficit by $3.3 million.
The Company has not filed, and does not intend to file, an amendment to the Company’s previously filed reports for the Non-Reliance Periods, but will restate its consolidated financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods to reflect the corrected accrued expenses, total liabilities and accumulated deficit balances within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”), which the Company will file as soon as practicable following this Form 8-K filing. With respect to the Non-Reliance Periods, investors and others should rely only on the financial information and other disclosures regarding those periods when restated, to be disclosed in the Form 10-K and in the Company’s future filings with the SEC.
The Audit Committee and management of the Company have discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02(a) with Wolf & Company, P.C., the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
