 On April 12, 2021, the Acting Director of the Division of Corporation Finance and Acting Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) together issued a statement regarding the accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies entitled “Staff Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies” (the “Statement”). The Statement reflects the SEC staff’s view that certain terms and conditions that are common to warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”), such as Alkuri Global Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), may require such warrants to be classified as liabilities rather than as components of equity on their financial statements. The public and private warrants issued by the Company in connection with its initial public offering (collectively, the “Company Warrants”) contain terms similar to those described in the Statement, and since their issuance, the Company Warrants have been classified as components of equity on the financial statements of the Company.

On May 11, 2021, management of the Company concluded, after discussions with Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (“Marcum”), that the audited balance sheet dated as of February 9, 2021 filed as Exhibit [99.1] to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 16, 2021 should no longer be relied upon due to changes required to reclassify the Company Warrants as liabilities to align with the requirements set forth in the Statement. The Company plans to reflect this reclassification of the Company Warrants in its upcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021, to be filed with the SEC.

The Company does not expect that any of the above changes will have any impact on its cash position and cash held in the trust account.

The Company’s management has discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to this Item 4.02 with Marcum. Marcum was provided with a copy of the disclosures made herein and was given the opportunity, no later than the day of the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K, to review these disclosures.
