EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K that was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 22, 2019 (the “Original Filing”) to report, among other things, the date in which the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Know Labs Inc. (the “Company”) determined the financial statements for the periods ending March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 should no longer be relied upon. This Amendment does not amend or otherwise update any other information in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and with our other filings with the SEC made after the Original Filing.
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Complete Interim Review
Amended and Restated Form 10-Q for the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2019
On January 21, 2020, the Audit Committee of Board of Directors of the Company, based on the recommendation of management and after consultation with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm determined the financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 contained in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q should no longer be relied upon and will restate its previously issued financial statements. In connection with the review of the Form 10-Q for the Company for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, management determined that previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements issued for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 contained an error which was non-cash in nature. The Company received proceeds from convertible promissory notes which are mandatory convertible into equity after a one year term. The Company originally classified the proceeds as equity. They should have properly been classified as debt and footnoted to explain that they would become equity at the end of their term. Certain expenditures related to warrants attached to the debt offering were not properly accounted for as well.
