Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Review.
On May 28, 2022, the board of directors (the “Board”) of ViVic Corp. (the “Company”) concluded that due to de-consolidation of the Company’s subsidiary, the Company’s previously issued unaudited interim financial statements included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, filed on November 15, 2021, unaudited interim financial statements included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, filed on August 12, 2021, and unaudited interim financial statements included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021, filed on May 14, 2021 (each a “Previous Filing” and collectively “Previous Filings”), should no longer be relied upon.
On January 3, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture and Cooperation Agreement to invest in Shenzhen Ocean Way Yachts Services Co., Ltd (“Ocean Way”). In the Previous Filings, the Company’s investment in Ocean Way was treated as an acquisition and the financial statements of Ocean Way were consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has invested a total amount of $122,665 (RMB 780,000), or approximately 43.8% of total ownership. On May 28, 2022, the Company’s management and the Board after consultation
with YCM CPA, Inc., the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded the investment in Ocean Way was considering as a long-term investment. Therefore, the consolidation of Ocean Way’s financial statements was erroneous.
