Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (NYSE: LICY) has restated its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the two months ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 due to a non-cash accounting error. The error, identified after the original filing on March 30, 2023, resulted in an understatement of unrealized fair value gains on financial instruments by $18.2 million for the previous period. This adjustment increased net income attributable to shareholders and earnings per share for the two months ended December 31, 2021, by $0.12 (basic) and $0.11 (diluted). Importantly, the restatement does not affect the company's overall cash position or previously reported adjusted EBITDA. Li-Cycle filed an amendment to its SEC Form 20-F to include the restated results along with a plan to address material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting.
