SECTION 4 – MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIALS STATEMENTS

 

ITEM 4.02. NON-RELIANCE ON PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR A RELATED AUDIT REPORT OR COMPLETED INTERIM REVIEW.

 

On September 25, 2017, the Board of Directors of Motivating The Masses, Inc. (the “Company”) concluded that the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016 and for the quarters ended March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015, September 30, 2015, March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016 (collectively, the “Restated Periods”) should no longer be relied upon because the Company did not properly account for (a) the potential for rescission of certain common stock issuances, and (b) non-cash charges associated with certain stock-based compensation (warrants and common stock).

 

The Company plans to file an amendment to its SEC filings, which will include restated financial information for the Restated Periods, as follows:

 

· Due to the potential for rescission of certain common stock issuances, the impacted common stock will now be recorded as temporary equity, rather than permanent equity, on the balance sheet.

 

· The grant date value of certain warrants issued to a financial advisor will be recorded as a non-cash charge to the income statement, which will increase the accumulated deficit with an offsetting increase in additional-paid-in-capital on the balance sheet.

 

· Certain common stock issuances were originally recorded similar to a stock dividend, which directly increased the accumulated deficit by the issuance date value of the common stock, with an offsetting increase in common stock (at par value) and additional-paid-in-capital (the remainder), which was the appropriate treatment on the balance sheet, but now a corresponding non-cash charge will be recorded to the income statement.

 

The Company believes it is premature to quantify the amount of the restatements at the current time.

 

The Company has discussed the restatements with its prior independent registered public accounting firm, Anton & Chia LLP, and its current independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP.
