On November 15, 2023, Veru disclosed in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that "its previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 (the 'Prior Financial Statements') should no longer be relied upon due to the identification of an error related to the accounting for the sale of ENTADFI assets on April 19, 2023, for which a gain on sale of $17,456,814 was initially recorded." Veru "also determined that there was an error in the going concern disclosures in the Prior Financial Statements. Specifically the Company considered if the forecasted future cash flows will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its contractual commitments and obligations as they come due in the ordinary course of business for a period of at least one year from the filing of the Company's report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 on August 10, 2023." Accordingly, the Company determined "that the Prior Financial Statements should be restated" and "that a material weakness exists in the Company's internal control over financial reporting related to its controls over applying technical accounting guidance to nonrecurring events and transactions, specific to the evaluation of information that was known or knowable at the time of the transaction or event."
On this news, Veru's stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on November 16, 2023.
