Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements
or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On April 12, 2021, the staff (the “Staff”)
of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a statement entitled “Staff Statement on
Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies” (the “Staff Statement”).
The Staff Statement, among other things, highlighted potential accounting implications of certain terms that are common in warrants issued
in connection with the initial public offerings of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) including Carney
Technology Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”). The Staff Statement reflected the Staff’s view that in many
cases, warrants issued by SPACs should be classified as liabilities for accounting purposes, rather than as components of equity, unless
certain conditions are met.
On June 8, 2021, the Company’s audit committee
(the “Audit Committee”), based on the recommendation of, and after consultation with, the Company’s management,
concluded that the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and its audited balance sheet as
of December 14, 2020 (collectively, the “Non-Reliance Periods”), as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K filed on March 30, 2021 and the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 18, 2020, should no longer be relied upon due to changes
required to reclassify the Company’s outstanding warrants as liabilities. Similarly, the related press releases, Report of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm dated March 30, 2021 on the financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and for the year ended December
31, 2020, and the stockholder communications, investor presentations or other communications describing relevant portions of the Company’s
financial statements for these periods should no longer be relied upon.
As a result, the Company will restate its historical
financial results for the Non-Reliance Periods, in each case to reflect the change in accounting treatment (the “Restatement”).
The Company’s prior accounting treatment of the
warrants as components of equity instead of as derivative liabilities did not have any effect on the Company’s previously reported
operating expenses, cash flows or cash.
The Audit Committee and management have discussed
the matters disclosed pursuant to this Item 4.02 with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
