Based on the evaluation under Internal Control – Integrated Framework, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of such date.
Removed
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and through September 29, 2022, neither the Corporation, nor anyone acting on its behalf, consulted Snodgrass regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Corporation by Snodgrass that was an important factor considered by the Corporation in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K). ​ Item 9A Controls and Procedures The Company, under the supervision, and with the participation, of its management and its outsourced internal audit firm Greenestock Consulting LLC, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2023, pursuant to the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.
Added
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Added
Accordingly, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024. During February 2025, while finalizing the financial statements, management determined that the fair value of available for sale investment securities was not recorded appropriately to reflect the year end valuation at December 31, 2024.
Added
As such, the Company has concluded that a material weakness exists in its internal controls over financial reporting. The error was discovered before any financial statements were issued.
Added
Corrections were made to properly reflect the correct accounting treatment to the fair value of the available for sale investment securities and the related effects to deferred taxes and accumulated other comprehensive income. Consequently, the material weakness did not result in any identified misstatement, and there were no changes to previously issued financial statements.
Added
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In the first quarter of 2025, corrections were made by management to implement procedures to ensure that available for sale investment securities are properly valued for each financial reporting period going forward, which completely remedied the material weakness.
Added
Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these controls and will make any further changes deemed appropriate.
