This Current Report on Form 8-K is filed by JAWS Mustang Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), in connection with the matters described herein.
| Item 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statement and Related Audit Report. |
On December 16, 2021, the Company’s management (the “Management”) and the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”), concluded that due to a reclassification of the Company’s temporary and permanent equity, the Company’s previously issued (i) audited balance sheet as of February 4, 2021 (the "Post IPO Balance Sheet"), as initially reported as revised in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 24, 2021 (“Q1 Form 10-Q”) and previously reported as revised in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on November 12, 2021 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”); (ii) unaudited interim financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021, initially reported in the Q1 Form 10-Q and previously reported as revised in the Q3 Form 10-Q; and (iii) unaudited interim financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 5, 2021 (collectively, the “Affected Periods”), should no longer be relied upon. Since the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), the Company has considered the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to be equal to the redemption value of $10.00 per Class A ordinary share while also taking into consideration a redemption cannot result in net tangible assets being less than $5,000,001. Previously, the Company did not consider redeemable stock classified as temporary equity as part of net tangible assets. Upon further analysis, Management has determined that the Class A ordinary shares issued during the IPO and pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment can be redeemed or become redeemable subject to the occurrence of future events considered outside the Company’s control. Therefore, Management concluded that the redemption value should include all Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, resulting in the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption being equal to their redemption value.
The restatement does not have an impact on the Company's cash position and cash held in the trust account established in connection with the IPO. The Company’s Management and the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed in this Form 8-K with WithumSmith+Brown, PC.
As such, the Company will restate its financial statements for the Affected Periods in future filings, as described therein.
