Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements
or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
In light of recent guidance
provided by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the management of Coliseum Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”)
has re-evaluated the Company’s application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its accounting classification of the redeemable shares of Class
A ordinary shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Public Shares”), issued as part of the units sold in the Company’s
initial public offering (the “IPO”) on June 25, 2021. Historically, a portion of the Public Shares was classified as permanent
equity to maintain net tangible assets greater than $5,000,000 on the basis that the Company will consummate its initial business combination
only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. Pursuant to such re-evaluation, the Company’s management has
determined that the Public Shares include certain provisions that require classification of the Public Shares as temporary equity regardless
of the minimum net tangible assets required to complete the Company’s initial business combination.
Therefore, on November 15,
2021, the Company’s management and the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”)
concluded that the Company’s previously issued (i) audited balance sheet included in the Company’s Current Report on Form
8-K, filed with the SEC on July 1, 2021 and (ii) 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 20, 2021 (collectively, the “Affected Periods”),
should be restated to report all Public Shares as temporary equity and should no longer be relied upon. As such, the Company will restate
its financial statements for the Affected Periods in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended
September 30, 2021, to be filed with the SEC (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”), as described therein.
The Company does not expect
any of the above changes will have any impact on its cash position and cash held in the trust account established in connection with the
IPO (the “Trust Account”).
The Company’s management
has concluded that in light of the classification error described above, a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The Company’s remediation
plan with respect to such material weakness will be described in more detail in the Q3 Form 10-Q.
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, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
