PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or
portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time
period.
Altimeter Growth Corp. 2 (the “Company”) has determined that it is
unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March
31, 2021 (the “Q1 2021 Form 10-Q”) by the prescribed due date for
the reasons described below.
On April 12, 2021, the Acting Director of the Division of
Corporation Finance and Acting Chief Accountant of the Securities
and Exchange Commission together issued a statement regarding the
accounting and reporting considerations for warrants issued by
special purpose acquisition companies entitled “Staff Statement on
Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by
Special Purpose Acquisition Companies” (the “SEC Statement”).
Despite the fact that the Company had not issued warrants, as a
result of the SEC Statement, and after discussion and evaluation,
including with the Company’s independent registered public
accounting firm, WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) and other
advisors, the Company re-examined its accounting practices with
respect to various matters, including the Company’s accounting
treatment of the 5,000,000 forward purchase shares to be issued
pursuant to the terms of its forward purchase agreement entered
into with Altimeter Partners Fund, L.P. for $10.00 per share (the
“Forward Purchase Shares”). As a result of the Company’s further
analysis and after consultations with its advisors and Withum, the
Company has concluded that the Forward Purchase Shares should be
accounted for as a liability and measured at fair value with
changes in fair value each period reported in the Company’s
statement of operations. The Company is in the process of
completing its final analysis of this change.
The Company, its accountants and Withum are working diligently to
complete the review of the financial statements for the three
months ended March 31, 2021 as soon as possible; however,
given the scope of the process for determining the appropriate
treatment of the FPA, the Company is unable to complete and file
the Q1 2021 Form 10-Q by the required due date of May 17, 2021
without unreasonable effort and expense.
