Item 4.02.

Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial
Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

In connection with the preparation of Macondray Capital Acquisition
Corp. I’s (the “Company”) financial statements as of September 30, 2021, the Company’s management identified errors
made in its historical financial statements where, at the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”),
the Company improperly presented its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption. The Company previously determined the Class
A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption to be equal to the redemption value of $10.10 per Class A ordinary share while also taking
into consideration a redemption cannot result in net tangible assets being less than $5,000,001. Management determined that the Class
A ordinary shares issued during the IPO can be redeemed or become redeemable subject to the occurrence of future events considered outside
the Company’s control. Therefore, management concluded that the redemption value should include all Class A ordinary shares subject
to possible redemption, resulting in the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption being equal to their redemption value.
As a result, management has noted a reclassification error related to temporary equity and permanent equity (the “Reclassification
Error”).
As a result of the foregoing, on November 16, 2021, the Company’s
management concluded that (i) the Company's previously issued audited balance sheet as of July 6, 2021, as reported in the Company's Current
Report on Form 8-K filed on July 13, 2021 and (ii) the Company’s previously issued financial statements for the period from March
15, 2021 (inception) through June 30, 2021 (the “Affected Period”), as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021 filed on August 24, 2021, should be restated because of the Reclassification Error and should
no longer be relied upon. Similarly, any previously furnished or filed reports, related earnings releases, investor presentations or similar
communications of the Company describing the Company’s financial results for the Affected Period should no longer be relied upon.
As a result, the Company today is announcing that it will restate its
historical financial results for the Affected Period to reflect the Reclassification Error (the “Restatement”). The Restatement
will be reflected in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021.
The Company’s prior accounting for the Class A ordinary shares
as subject to possible redemption did not have any impact on the Company’s liquidity, cash flows, revenues or costs of operating
our business, in the Affected Period. The Reclassification Error does not impact the amounts previously reported for the Company’s
cash and cash equivalents, investments held in the trust account, operating expenses or total cash flows from operations for any of these
periods.
The Company’s management concluded that in light of the Reclassification
Error described above, a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The Company’s remediation plan with respect to such material weakness will
be described in more detail in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021.
The Company’s management and the Audit Committee have discussed
the matters disclosed in this Form 8-K with Marcum LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
