Stemming from Guidance Concerning Balance Sheet Treatment of Warrants, E2open Announces Receipt of NYSE Continued Listing Standard Notice

By: via Business Wire

E2open Expects to File Form 10-K in the Very Near Term to Restore Compliance

On April 12, 2021, the Division of Corporate Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies,” clarifying the accounting guidance for warrants with terms that are common for SPACs (the “Statement”). The immediacy of the effective date of this new guidance generally resulted in audit firms not consenting to include their audit opinions in SEC filings until the new guidance was evaluated and reflected in an updated filing, which in part prevented the Company from filing an annual report that complied with SEC and New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules by its filing deadline.

Given the resultant delay in our ability to submit our 10-K filing, E2open (NYSE: ETWO), today announced that it received a formal notice of non-compliance from the NYSE. The annual report in question relates to E2open’s predecessor, CC Neuberger Principal Holdings I, a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), reflecting financial information for a fiscal period that ended prior to the business combination that closed on February 4, 2021. Under NYSE rules, E2open generally has six months following receipt of the notification to regain compliance with the continued listing standard, subject to any extensions by NYSE.

Absent these developments, E2open was ready to meet its filing obligation by the applicable deadline. Following the issuance of the Statement, the Company immediately took appropriate steps to determine the materiality of the impact on its financial statements in order to file the Form 10-K and regain compliance with NYSE’s listing standard. Today’s announcement is related to the treatment of a non-cash item on the Company’s balance sheet and does not impact any of the guidance issued by the Company to date.

E2open believes the change in SEC guidance does not affect its customers, strategy, or business performance. The Company is in compliance with all other NYSE continued listing standards.

E2open believes it will file the SPAC Form 10-K in the very near term and does not foresee any risk of non-compliance with the NYSE six-month remediation timeframe. Other than the impact of the Statement on warrant accounting, all material information that will be included in the SPAC’s Form 10-K has already been included in the Company’s previously filed Form S-1/A. E2open does not believe that the Statement will delay the filing of its annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, which reflects the financial information for the post-business combination company as opposed to financial information of the SPAC predecessor.
