Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

 

On April 7, 2017, the Board of Directors of Alliance MMA, Inc. (the “Company”) concluded that the condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 should no longer be relied upon because of an error in recognizing as compensation transfers of common stock by an affiliate of the Company to individuals who were at the time of transfer, or subsequently became, officers, directors or consultants of the Company. The Company plans to include in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 revised financial information for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company’s chief financial officer has discussed the determination to restate these financial statements with its independent accounting firm.
