As previously disclosed, on March 11, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-251959), and the Company’s previously issued interim financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 (collectively, the “Prior Period Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon as a result of accounting errors and should be restated. The Company has been in the process of preparing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the restatements of the Prior Period Financial Statements, and the Company filed the applicable documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 16, 2022.

The Company expects to file the Quarterly Report on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

Results of Operations
The Company expects to report the following results of operations:
Revenues
For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company expects to report net revenues of approximately $63,000 and $17,000, respectively. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, the Company earned revenues from customers for advertising delivered through Alfi-owned devices. Revenue earned during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was earned from a single customer.
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company expects to report total operating expenses were approximately $5,400,000 and approximately $2,400,000, respectively, an increase of $3,000,000. Compensation and benefits expense increased as independent contractors became full time employees effective March 1, 2021. Other general and administrative expenses increased due to higher costs related to the Company’s growth and launch of its technology platform and the Company’s May 2021 initial public offering. Legal and professional fees increased due to additional fees related to the Company’s previously disclosed independent internal investigation, and data network charges and payments to drivers increased due to significant year-over-year growth in the number of tablets in service.
Operating Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company expects to report the operating loss increased from approximately $2,400,000 to approximately $5,300,000, an increase of $2,900,000 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher operating expenses, as discussed above.
Net Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company expects to report the net loss increased from approximately $2,700,000 to approximately $5,300,000, an increase of $2,600,000 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher operating expenses, as discussed above.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 12b-25 includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this Form 12b-25 are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the Company’s expectation regarding the timing of the filing with the SEC of the Quarterly Report and the Company’s expectation with respect to the estimated results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 discussed in this Form 12b-25.
