biote Corp. (BTMD): auditor change — biote Corp. restating 2022 Q2/Q3 results; earnout liability error, EPS revision
biote Corp.
- Audit committee determined Q2 and Q3 2022 unaudited financials should no longer be relied upon due to earnout valuation error.
- Error overstated earnout liability and gain/loss from change in fair value; restatement to reduce both.
- Changes in fair value of warrant and earnout liabilities will be attributed to operating subsidiary Holdings, not parent.
- Restatement will reduce basic and diluted earnings per share; no impact on revenue, operating income, or cash flows.
- Company does not believe the error stems from a material weakness in internal controls.
