(Attach extra sheets if needed.)
Alfi, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable, without unreasonable effort
or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended September 30, 2021 (the “Quarterly Report”) by the
November 15, 2021 filing date applicable to smaller reporting
companies: (i) due to recent changes in the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and in the Chair of
the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company’s Board
of Directors (the “Board”); and (ii) because the Company has not
yet engaged a new independent registered public accounting firm,
which is needed to provide the required review of the Company’s
financial statements to be filed as part of the Quarterly Report.
As previously disclosed by the Company in its filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), on: (i) October 22,
2021, the Board placed Paul Pereira, the Company’s President and
Chief Executive Officer, and Dennis McIntosh, the Company’s Chief
Financial Officer and Treasurer, on paid administrative leave and
elected Peter Bordes, a member of the Board, to serve as the
Company’s interim Chief Executive Officer; (ii) October 27, 2021,
Richard Mowser, a director of the Company and Chair of the Audit
Committee, resigned as a member of the Board; (iii) October 29,
2021, the Company’s then-serving independent registered public
accounting firm resigned; (iv) November 1, 2021, the Board
appointed Allen Capsuto to serve as a director of the Company and
as Chair of the Audit Committee; and (v) November 8, 2021, the
Board appointed Louis A. Almerini to serve as the Company’s interim
Chief Financial Officer. The Audit Committee is in the process of
selecting and engaging a new independent registered public
accounting firm.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company is still in the process
of completing the financial statements and disclosures required to
be included in the Quarterly Report, including obtaining an auditor
review of such financial statements. The Company is working
diligently to complete and file the Quarterly Report as soon as
practicable; however, the Company does not expect to file the
Quarterly Report on or before the fifth calendar day following the
prescribed due date.

Have all other periodic reports
required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during
the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the

|
(3) |
Is it anticipated that any
significant change in results of operations from the corresponding
period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings
statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
☒Yes ☐No |
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the
reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be
made.
The Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) in May
2021 and the financial statements included in the Company’s
prospectus relating to the IPO did not include financial statements
for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, and no such quarterly
financial statements have been prepared or filed with the SEC or
otherwise publicly disclosed. As such, the Company is unable to
explain any anticipated change from the corresponding period for
the last fiscal year. Nevertheless, the Company anticipates a
significant change in the results of operations from the quarter
ended June 30, 2021 as described below. The description below
includes preliminary estimates based on the best information
available to management as of the date of this Form 12b-25.
Revenues, net
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company
expects to report net revenues of $112, compared to net revenues of
$936 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021.
Cost of Sales
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company
expects to report cost of goods sold expense which is significantly
higher than the cost of goods sold of $161,377 reported for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily
due to the cost of tablet deployment and installation and data
charges resulting from use of those tablets in the field. The
Company is unable to provide an accurate estimate of Cost of Sales
at this time, pending discussion and analysis of the increased
costs which is expected to result in adjustments.
Operating Expenses
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company
expects to report operating expenses that are higher than the
operating expenses of $4,484,721 reported for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to
substantially higher labor costs due to continued post-IPO growth
in staffing.
Other Expense
During the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company
was party to material transactions which are expected to result in
significant one-time expenses which may affect reported Cost of
Sales, Operating Expenses, or Other Expense. The Company is unable
to provide an accurate estimate of these expenses at this time,
pending further discussion and analysis.
Net Loss
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company
expects to report a net loss which is significantly higher than the
net loss of $4,692,471 reported for the three-month period ended
June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to the increases in
expenses discussed above. The Company is unable to provide an
accurate estimate of its net loss at this time, pending further
discussion and analysis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company expects to report Cash and cash equivalents at
September 30, 2021 of $10,066,498, up $10,058,163 from $8,335 at
December 31, 2020 but down $9,627,155 from $19,693,653 at June 30,
2021. The increase during the nine-month period ended September 30,
2021 was due to proceeds from the IPO, net of uses which included
pay off of all outstanding pre-IPO debt and costs to acquire staff,
purchase tablets and kiosk devises, make marketing investments,
effect a stock buyback, purchase a condominium in Miami Beach, FL,
and fund general operating and other costs. The decrease during the
three-month period ended June 30, 2021 was due to costs to acquire
staff, purchase tablets and kiosk devises, make marketing
investments, effect a stock buyback, purchase a condominium in
Miami Beach, FL, and fund general operating and other costs.
