Item 4.02. Non-Reliance
on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
During the preparation of
the financial statements of Industrial Human Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) for
the quarter ending March 31, 2022, the Company determined that, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”), for its
fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (“Fiscal 2021”), it understated its accrued offering costs in the amount of $120,000 due
to an error.
The Company further determined
in reviewing the Form 10-K that the second sentence of the first paragraph of Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in the Form
10-K contained the following inaccurate description of the status of the Company’s discussions with potential Business Combination
partners:
The Company has not selected any specific
Business Combination target and the Company has not, nor has anyone on its behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or
indirectly, with any Business Combination target.
The foregoing statement was
inconsistent with the following description of the status of the Company’s discussions with potential Business Combination partners
included in the second and third sentences of the first paragraph of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K, which was accurate when published
and remains accurate:
Since completing our initial public offering
(“IPO”), we have engaged in confidential discussions with various potential Business Combination partners. Nevertheless, as
of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not entered into a binding agreement with any specific Business Combination target.
On May 13, 2022, the Company’s
management and the audit committee of its board of directors (the “Audit Committee”), after consultation with Marcum LLP
(“Marcum”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that its previously issued audited
financial statements for Fiscal 2021 contained in its Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2022 should
be restated to reflect the following: (i) an increase in Accrued offering costs and expenses of $120,000 (from $211,941 to $331,941);
(ii) an increase in Total current liabilities of $120,000 (from $383,231 to $503,231); (iii) a decrease in Additional paid-in capital
of $120,000 (from $1,162,031 to $1,042,031); and (iv) a decrease in Total stockholders’ equity of $120,000 (from $485,766 to $365,766).
The Audit Committee further concluded that the second sentence of the first paragraph of Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in
the Form 10-K should be deleted and replaced with the following, which is consistent with the Company’s disclosure in Part I, Item
1 of the Form 10-K:
Since
completing our initial public offering (“IPO”), we have engaged in confidential discussions with various potential Business
Combination partners. Nevertheless, as of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not entered into a binding agreement with any specific
Business Combination target.
The
Company’s management has concluded that in light of the error described above, a material weakness exists in its internal control
over financial reporting with respect to its improper accounting for accruals. Therefore, its disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective. The Company is in the process of evaluating whether additional remediation measures should be implemented with respect
to such material weaknesses.
The
Company’s management and the Audit Committee have discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to
this Item 4.02 with Marcum.
