Explanatory Note

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2022 (the “Original Form 8-K”) by Presto Automation Inc. (the “Company”). The purpose of this Amendment is to correct certain information presented in the financial tables contained in the Company’s press release dated November 15, 2022, furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the Original Form 8-K (the “Original Press Release”).

 

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

The Company discovered that the calculation of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 associated with earnout shares allocable to the persons that were equityholders of the Company prior to its previously announced business combination was incorrect as reported in the Original Press Release. The Company has made an adjustment to such expense by revising the expense of $6,250 thousand, as presented in the Original Press Release, to $178 thousand, reflected in the tables below.
