| Item 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim
Review |
Atlantic Coastal Acquisition
Corp. (the “Company”) previously filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
May 16, 2022, to extend the due date for the filing of its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 (the “Report”). The
Form 12b-25 disclosed that the Report was unable to be filed on time because the Company required additional time to finalize its financial
statements. Such further delay in filing the Report past the deadline set forth in the Form 12b-25 was in connection with further additional
time required to finalize the Company’s financial statements, including restatement of certain financial information. The Company intends to file the Report on June 1, 2022 following the filing of this Form 8-K.
During the preparation of
the Report, on May 31, 2022, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company concluded that the Company’s financial statements for (i)
the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, and September 30, 2021, as restated on Form 10-Q filed on November 15, 2021, and (ii) the year ended December 31, 2021, filed on April 21, 2022 (the “Prior Period
Financial Statements”) should no longer be relied upon due to management’s identification of an error in amounts reported
in certain previously issued financial statements related to the amortization of its prepaid insurance amounts.
As part of the Company’s normal quarterly reporting process for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and prior to the completion of
the related review, management had determined that the Company had incorrectly calculated amortization expense over a 12 month period
based on the policy end date provided by the insurance broker, versus the correct period of 24 months based on the actual policy end date.
Due to the error noted above,
the Company intends to restate its historical financial results for the Prior Period Financial Statements (the “Restatements”)
in its Report. The Restatements will not have an impact on the Company’s cash position and investments held in the trust account.
The Chief Financial Officer
of the Company has discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02 with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company
and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the
safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain of these forward-looking statements
can be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,”
“estimates,” “assumes,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “seeks,” or other
similar expressions. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the impact of the Company's restatement
of certain historical financial statements, the Company's cash position and cash held in the Trust Account and any proposed remediation
measures with respect to identified material weaknesses. These statements are based on current expectations on the date of this Current
Report on Form 8-K and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ significantly. The Company
does not assume any obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new developments or otherwise.
Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
