Explanatory Note
On March 1, 2021, Clover Health Investments, Corp. (the Company or we) issued a press release announcing our financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2020 (the Earnings Release) and conducted a conference call regarding these financial results. On March 1, 2020, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the Original 8-K), under which we furnished the Earnings Release as Exhibit 99.1. The Original 8-K is amended by this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report to include the paragraphs below under the headings Revision to Previously Announced Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Results of Operations and Impact on Financial Outlook.
Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Revision to Previously Announced Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Results of Operations.
During the preparation of our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, including the finalization of the accounting for the January 7, 2021 merger described in the Earnings Release, and subsequent to the Earnings Release, we recorded an adjustment to our non-cash (gain) loss on derivatives reported in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. This adjustment relates to the valuation of the embedded derivative features of our convertible securities outstanding at December 31, 2020 and the varying treatment of each tranche under applicable derivative accounting guidance. For the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the adjustment decreased the gain on derivatives by $44.8 million from $(51.1) million to $(6.3) million, with a corresponding increase to net loss from $(81.6) million to $(126.4) million for the same period, in each case as compared to the financial information presented in the Earnings Release. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the adjustment decreased the gain on derivatives by $44.8 million from $(138.6) million to $(93.8) million, with a corresponding increase to net loss from $(91.6) million to $(136.4) million for the same period, in each case as compared to the financial information presented in the Earnings Release. On a non-GAAP basis, these adjustments had no impact on adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA margin reported in the Earnings Release. As a result of this adjustment, management determined that there was a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the valuation of our derivative liability. The embedded derivative was extinguished upon consummation of the January 7, 2021 merger, and management therefore does not expect this material weakness to recur in future periods. For additional information, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Impact on Financial Outlook
We expect the adjustment described above to result in the Companys expected non-cash gain on derivatives for the three months ending March 31, 2021 and year ending December 31, 2021 to be materially higher than previously reflected in the Companys full year 2021 Financial Outlook provided in the Earnings Release, which speaks only as of March 1, 2021 and is not otherwise updated by this announcement.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: The statements under Impact on Financial Outlook may be considered forward-looking within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws, including projections of the non-cash impact of adjustments to the Companys accounting for convertible securities. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially, including, but not limited to, the Companys completion of the financial closing process for its first quarter operating results and financial condition. In addition, such statements are made as of March 31, 2021 and are based on managements current expectations and do not take into account the impact of any future events that may be completed after the date of this Amendment No. 1. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements in this Amendment No. 1. We assume no obligation, and do not intend, to update these forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors is contained in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The information in this Amendment No. 1 shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section or Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The information contained herein shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
