PIPP Pine Island Acquisition Corp

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

Pine Island Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) historically classified a portion of its shares of Class A common stock as permanent equity. On November 12, 2021, the management and the audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”), after consultation with Marcum LLP, concluded that, in connection with the reclassification related to temporary equity and permanent equity made in the historical financial statements, it is appropriate to amend and restate (i) the Company’s audited balance sheet as of November 19, 2020 that was included in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 25, 2020, (ii) the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2020 and for the period from August 21, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, as restated in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 1, 2021, and (iii) the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 that were included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, respectively (collectively, the “Non-Reliance Financial Statements”), filed with the SEC on July 1, 2021 and August 16, 2021, respectively.

Considering such restatements, the Non-Reliance Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon. The Company will include a restatement footnote in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 to reflect the adjustments for the reclassification related to temporary equity and permanent equity with respect to the Non-Reliance Financial Statements. These restatements will result in non-cash, non-operating financial statement corrections and will have no impact on the Company’s current or previously reported cash position, operating expenses or total operating, investing or financing cash flows.

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 LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
