SUGARMADE, INC. (OTCMKTS:SGMD) Files An 8-K Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review

On August 14, 2018, the management of Sugarmade, Inc. (the “Company”) concluded the Company’s previously issued financial statements filed on August 3, 2018 on Form 10-Q for the third fiscal quarter period ending March 31, 2018 (the “Restated Periods”), should no longer be relied upon due to the misclassification of an expense for the nine-month period ending March 31, 2018. Thus, the Company is filing Form 10-Q/A Amendment No. 1, restating selected financial reports as described herein and within Form 10-Q/A Amendment No. 1.

The restatement was caused by a clerical error where a previous version of financial statements was not removed and replaced with an updated version. Specifically, relative to the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine-month period ending on March 31, 2018, there was a misclassification of data against the Company’s three-month look back which caused the nine-month look back to have to be restated. The Company plans to file Form 10-Q/A Amendment No. 1 to correct the clerical error described above and to restate selected financial reports.
