Item 4.02.

Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
|
CONX Corp. (the “Company”)
historically classified a portion of the Company’s shares of redeemable Class A common stock (the “public shares”) as
permanent equity to maintain stockholders’ equity in excess of $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. In connection with the preparation of
the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 (the “Original
Form 10-Q”), management re-evaluated the Company’s application of Accounting Standards Codification 480-10-S99 with
respect to the accounting classification of public shares and determined that the public shares include redemption provisions that require
classification of all public shares as temporary equity, regardless of the minimum net tangible asset requirement discussed above. After
further consideration, subsequent to the filing of the Original Form 10-Q, management re-evaluated the impact of the reclassification
of the public shares on the Company’s previously issued financial statements and, in consultation with the audit committee of the
Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”), concluded that such reclassification was material with respect
to certain of the Company’s previously issued financial statements, as further described below.
On January 20, 2022,
the Company’s management and the Audit Committee concluded that (i) the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements
as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from August 26, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, as restated in Amendment No. 1
to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from August 26, 2020 (inception) through
December 31, 2020 (as amended, the “Form 10-K/A”), (ii) the Company’s previously issued audited balance sheet as of
as of November 3, 2020, as restated in the Form 10-K/A, (iii) the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements
as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
ended March 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 24, 2021, (iv) the Company’s
previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, included in the
Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on August 13, 2021, and
(v) Note 1 to the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2021, included in the Original Form 10-Q, respectively (the “Non-Reliance Periods”), should no longer be relied
upon and should be restated to correct the classification error described above. Similarly, the related Report of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm on the Company’s previously issued financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from August
26, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, included in the Form 10-K/A, should no longer be relied upon.
The previously issued
financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods will be restated in amendments to (i) the Form 10-K/A, and (ii) the Original Form
10-Q (collectively, the “Amended Reports”). The restatement is expected to have no impact on the Company’s liquidity
or cash position.
As a result of the factors
described above, the Company’s management has concluded that a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting and that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. The material
weakness and the Company’s remediation plan with respect to such material weakness will be described in more detail in the Amended
Reports.
The Audit Committee and
management have discussed the matters disclosed pursuant to this Item 4.02(a) with WithumSmith+Brown, PC, the Company’s independent
accountant.
