EXPLANATORY NOTE

Crucible Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) to amend and restate the Company’s audited balance sheet as of January 7, 2021 (the “IPO Balance Sheet”) that had been filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 13, 2021 (the “Original 8-K”).

On January 26, 2022, the Company’s management and audit committee of the board of directors concluded that the IPO Balance Sheet filed with the Original 8-K should be restated to report all shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption as temporary equity and the warrants as derivative liabilities. Considering such restatement, the IPO Balance Sheet filed with the Original 8-K, as well as the relevant portions of any communication which describes or are based on such IPO Balance Sheet, should no longer be relied upon. The IPO Balance Sheet is being restated herein to reflect the classification of all of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock as temporary equity in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480-10-S99 and to reflect the classification of the Company’s warrants (including the redeemable warrants that were included in the units issued by the Company in its initial public offering and the warrants issued to the Company’s sponsor in a private placement that closed concurrently with the Company’s initial public offering) as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 815. The Company had previously classified its warrants and a portion the shares of its Class A common stock as permanent equity.

Except as described above, this Amendment does not amend, update or change any other disclosures in the Original 8-K. In addition, the information contained in this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original 8-K and does not modify or update the disclosures therein, except as specifically identified above. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original 8-K have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the date of the Original 8-K, other than as described herein, and such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s other filings with the SEC.
