+Added: Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our
2 unchanged sentences
controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or
−Removed: submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules
−Removed: Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable
−Removed: assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of
−Removed: possible controls and procedures.
−Removed: Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating
−Removed: the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, concluded that as of such
−Removed: date, certain of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over
−Removed: financial reporting as described in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed on Form 8-K/A on April 7,
−Removed: Management noted a material weakness in our internal
−Removed: control over financial reporting related to the understatement of unit-based compensation expense.
−Removed: The understatement of the grant
−Removed: date fair value was due to a revision in the underlying fair value determination, and such revision was not appropriately reflected in
−Removed: the financial statements.
−Removed: Management concluded that the grant date fair value and corresponding incremental expense should be adjusted
−Removed: by recognizing the additional expense in Intermediate’s March 31, 2022 financials.
−Removed: As part of such process, management identified
−Removed: a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to the grant date fair value revision.
−Removed: Additionally, Intermediate
−Removed: did not maintain effective internal control regarding the date on which to apply new accounting standards based upon CENAQ’s elections
−Removed: made as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act, which required Intermediate to apply new accounting standards as if it were a public
−Removed: business entity.
−Removed: Remediation Efforts to Address Disclosed
−Removed: Material Weakness
−Removed: Effective internal controls are necessary to provide
−Removed: reliable financial reports and prevent fraud, and material weaknesses could limit the ability to prevent or detect a misstatement of accounts
−Removed: or disclosures that could result in a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements.
−Removed: Our management continues to evaluate
−Removed: steps to remediate the material weaknesses.
−Removed: These material weaknesses have not been fully remediated.
−Removed: We are in the early stages of designing
−Removed: and implementing a plan to remediate the material weaknesses identified.
−Removed: Our plan includes the below:
−Removed: Designing and implementing a risk assessment process supporting the identification of risks facing the Company.
−Removed: Implementing controls to enhance our review of significant accounting transactions and other new technical accounting and financial reporting issues and preparing and reviewing accounting memoranda addressing these issues.
−Removed: Hiring additional experienced accounting, financial reporting and internal control personnel and changing roles and responsibilities of our personnel as we transition to being a public company and are required to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.
−Removed: Implementing controls to enable an accurate and timely review of accounting records that support our accounting processes and maintain documents for internal accounting reviews.
−Removed: We cannot assure you that these measures will
−Removed: significantly improve or remediate the material weaknesses described above.
−Removed: The implementation of these remediation measures is in the
−Removed: early stages and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over a sustained
−Removed: period of financial reporting cycles and, as a result, the timing of when we will be able to fully remediate the material weaknesses is
−Removed: uncertain and we may not fully remediate these material weaknesses during the year ending December 31, 2023.
−Removed: If the steps we take
−Removed: do not remediate the material weaknesses in a timely manner, there could be a reasonable possibility that these control deficiencies or
−Removed: others may result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on
−Removed: a timely basis.
−Removed: This, in turn, could jeopardize our ability to comply with our reporting obligations, limit our ability to access the
−Removed: capital markets and adversely impact our stock price.
+Added: submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed and summarized within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
