Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by PARTS iD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) on July 17, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (as amended “the Lind Purchase Agreement”) with Lind Global Fund II LP (“Lind”) pursuant to which the Company issued and sold, in a private placement, (A) a senior secured convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $5,367,500 (the “Lind Note”) and (B) 12,837,838 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (the “Lind Warrant”).

 

As previously disclosed in a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on November 14, 2023, the Company was unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 (the “Quarterly Report”) by the applicable due date for such report (the “10-Q Reporting Default”). The Company requires additional time to finalize its financial statements for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023 in order to complete certain open audit and technical accounting matters.

 

Under the Lind Purchase Agreement and the Lind Note, the 10-Q Reporting Default is considered an Event of Default (as defined in Section 2.1 of the Lind Note and Section 7.1 of the Lind Purchase Agreement). Unless waived by Lind, the foregoing event would constitute a breach of the Lind Purchase Agreement and the Lind Note that result in certain remedies being available to Lind, including but not limited to, the Company being obligated to pay to Lind 110% of the outstanding principal amount of the Lind Note or that Lind may demand that all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Lind Note be converted into shares of Common Stock at the lower of (i) the then-current Conversion Price (as defined in the Lind Note) and (ii) 80% of the average of the three (3) lowest daily VWAPs during the 20 trading days prior to the delivery by Lind of the applicable notice of conversion. Lind may also exercise or otherwise enforce any one or more of its rights, powers, privileges, remedies and interests under the Lind Note, the Lind Purchase Agreement, the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Lind Purchase Agreement) or applicable law.

 

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On November 21, 2023, the Company received written notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards because the Company did not timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter September 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”), which was due on November 20, 2023.

 

In accordance with Section 1007 of the NYSE American Company Guide, the Company will have six months from the date of the Notice (the “Initial Cure Period”), to file the Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). If the Company fails to file the Form 10-Q during the Initial Cure Period, the NYSE American may, in its sole discretion, provide an additional six-month cure period (the “Additional Cure Period”). The Company can regain compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards at any time during the Initial Cure Period or Additional Cure Period, as applicable, by filing the Form 10-Q and any subsequent delayed filings with the SEC. 

 

Reference is made to the Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed by the Company with the SEC on November 14, 2023 (the “Form 12b-25”) reporting that it required additional time to complete the Form 10-Q. Although the Company has dedicated significant resources to the completion of finalizing its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for inclusion in the Form 10-Q, the Company was unable to file the Form 10-Q by November 20, 2023, the extension period provided by the Form 12b-25. Additional time is needed by the Company to complete its review of the financial statements included in the Form 10-Q in order to ensure a complete, accurate Form 10-Q. The Company intends to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable and in any event within the above-referenced six-month period.

 

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on the NYSE American. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the listing standards discussed above.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On November 27, 2023, in accordance with the NYSE American’s procedures, the Company issued a press release discussing the matters disclosed in Item 3.01 above. A copy of the press release is included herewith as Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K 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. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events, such as the Company’s expectations concerning the 10-Q Reporting Default and its ability and the anticipated timing for curing the 10-Q Reporting Default by filing the delinquent report. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “intends,” “plans,” and “will,” or the negative of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform with our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, including the Company’s ability to complete its delinquent report; the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the Lind Purchase Agreement and the Lind Note within the applicable cure periods; the Company’s ability to continue to comply with applicable covenants under the Lind Purchase Agreement, the Lind Note and the Lind Warrant; the Company’s ability to meet the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American and to maintain the listing of our securities thereon; and the other factors under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed on May 22, 2023 and August 15, 2023 and in other filings that the Company has made and may make with the SEC in the future. All of the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K are qualified by these cautionary statements. The actual results or developments anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized, they may not have the expected consequences to or effects on the Company or our business or operations. Such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are made only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

All statements made in this press release relating to future financial or business performance, conditions, plans, prospects, trends, or strategies and other such matters, including without limitation, expected future performance, consumer adoption, anticipated success of our business model or the potential for long term profitable growth, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, when or if used in this press release, the words “may,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “confident,” “look forward,” “optimistic” and similar expressions and their variants, as they relate to us may identify forward-looking statements. We operate in a changing environment where new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks that may affect us, particularly those associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, which have had wide-ranging and continually evolving effects. We caution that these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time, often quickly and in unanticipated ways.

 

 

 

Important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties, including without limitation: the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia has affected and may continue to affect our business; competition and our ability to counter competition, including changes to the algorithms of Google and other search engines and related impacts on our revenue and advertisement expenses; the impact of health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, on our business and the actions we may take in response thereto; disruptions in the supply chain and associated impacts on demand, product availability, order cancellations and cost of goods sold including inflation; difficulties in managing our international business operations, particularly in the Ukraine, including with respect to enforcing the terms of our agreements with our contractors and managing increasing costs of operations; changes in our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, product pricing, projected costs, prospects and plans; the outcome of actual or potential litigation, complaints, product liability claims, or regulatory proceedings, and the potential adverse publicity related thereto; our ability to meet the continued listing requirements of the NYSE American and to maintain the listing of our securities thereon; the implementation, market acceptance and success of our business model, expansion plans, opportunities and initiatives, including the market acceptance of our planned products and services; developments and projections relating to our competitors and industry; our expectations regarding our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others; our ability to maintain and enforce intellectual property rights and ability to maintain technology leadership; our future capital requirements; our ability to raise capital and utilize sources of cash; our ability to obtain funding for our operations; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the effects of current and future U.S. and foreign trade policy and tariff actions; disruptions in the marketplace for online purchases of aftermarket auto parts; costs related to operating as a public company; and the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors.

 

Further information on the factors and risks that could cause actual results to differ from any forward-looking statements are contained in our filings with the SEC, which are available at https://www.sec.gov (or at https://www.partsidinc.com).
