Item 4.01 Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On January 25, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved the
engagement of EisnerAmper LLP ("EA") as the Company's independent registered
public accounting firm to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements
as of and for the year ending December 31, 2022.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EA served as independent registered public accounting firm of Sky prior to the
Business Combination. Accordingly, KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), YAC's independent
registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, was
informed that it would be replaced by EA as the Company's independent registered
public accounting firm following completion of its audit of YAC's financial
statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which consists only
of the accounts of the pre-Business Combination special purpose acquisition
company, YAC.
The audit report of KPMG on YAC's, the Company's legal predecessor, financial
statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from August 25, 2020
(inception) to December 31, 2020 did not contain an adverse opinion or a
disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainties,
audit scope or accounting principles. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the 2020 financial statements have been restated to correct certain
misstatements.
During the period from August 25, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2020 and the
subsequent interim period through January 25, 2022, there were no (1)
disagreements between YAC and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to
make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the
disagreements and (2) no "reportable events" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act")) except as described in the following paragraph.
On May 24, 2021, following the issuance of the statement regarding the
accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose
acquisition companies entitled "Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting
Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies
("SPACs")" by the Commission, YAC's management and the Audit Committee of YAC's
board of directors, after consultation with management, concluded that YAC's
financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and the period from August 25, 2020
(inception) to December 31, 2020 (the "Original Financial Statements") should no
longer be relied upon and are to be restated in order to correct a
classification error. The Original Financial Statements were restated in the
financial statements accompanying YAC's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with
the Commission on May 24, 2021. As part of such process, YAC identified a
material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting, solely
related to YAC's accounting for warrants.
The Company has provided KPMG with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and has
requested that KPMG furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC
stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company set forth
above. A copy of KPMG's letter dated January 31, 2022 is filed as Exhibit 16.1
to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
