Item
4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On
May 17, 2023, Hillstream BioPharma, Inc. (the “Company”)
after discussion with the audit committee of its board of directors concluded that the Company’s
accounting for recording certain financed insurance policies was deemed to be incorrect. The Company previously reported in its consolidated
balance sheet audited by Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C., the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, a
current prepaid asset for the amount paid by the Company in excess of the total amortized value of the prepaid insurance policy. After
further consideration, it was determined that the Company should report the financed insurance policies as a financing arrangement. As
a result of the foregoing, the financial statements are to include the financed total in liabilities with the full amount of the insured
premium recognized as a current prepaid asset and the payments for the financing arrangement as cash flow from financing activities.
This resulted in the presentation of the financing arrangement from cash flows used in operating activities to cash flows from financing
activities and is considered a material change to the financial statements requiring the Company to restate its December 31, 2022 audited
financial statements and its unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September
30, 2022 on Form 10-K/A.
As
such, the previously issued audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and unaudited
financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 (collectively,
the “Period”) should no longer be relied upon as the Company did not
correctly account for the financed insurance premium. The restatement will have an effect on the
Company’s previously reported audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 and its unaudited balance sheets and statements of
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the six months ended June 30, 2022 and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
As
a result, the Company will restate its historical financial results for the Period to reflect the foregoing change (the “Restatement”).
The Company intends to file an amendment to its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 to reflect the Restatement
as soon as practicable.
The
audit committee of the Company’s board of directors has discussed the matters disclosed
in this Item 4.02 with Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C., the Company’s independent registered
public accounting firm.
