PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition
report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
NightDragon Acquisition Corp. (the Company) is unable,
without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 (the Quarterly Report) by the prescribed due date for the
reasons described below.
In light of recent commentary from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Companys
management has re-evaluated the Companys application of ASC 480-10-S99-3A to its
accounting classification of the redeemable shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the Public Shares), issued as part of the units sold in the Companys initial public offering (the IPO) on
March 4, 2021. Historically, a portion of the Public Shares was classified as permanent equity to maintain net tangible assets greater than $5,000,000 on the basis that the Company will consummate its initial business combination only if the
Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001. Pursuant to such re-evaluation, the Companys management has determined that the Public Shares include certain provisions that require
classification of the Public Shares as temporary equity regardless of the minimum net tangible assets required to complete the Companys initial business combination.
Therefore, on November 16, 2021, the Companys management and the audit committee of the Companys board of directors (the Audit
Committee), after consultation with Marcum LLP (Marcum), the Companys independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the Companys previously issued (i) audited balance sheet as of March 4, 2021
filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2021 as restated pursuant to the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended March 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on June 11, 2021 (the Q1 Form 10-Q), (ii) unaudited interim financial statements included in the Q1 Form 10-Q and (iii) unaudited interim financial statements included in the
Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2021 (collectively, the Affected Periods), should be restated
to report all Public Shares as temporary equity and should no longer be relied upon. As such, the Company is in the process of restating its financial statements for the Affected Periods in the Quarterly Report, which has taken the Company and
Marcum considerable time to effect.
For these reasons, the Company is unable to timely file the Quarterly Report without unreasonable effort or expense.
The Company will require more time and dedication of resources to prepare and file the Quarterly Report than the Company previously anticipated. The Company is working diligently to complete its Quarterly Report as soon as possible and intends to
file its Quarterly Report within five calendar days of November 15, 2021.
