Alico, Inc. Provides Further Update on Challenges in Reporting Fiscal Year 2022 Results and Making Associated Filings

FORT MYERS, Fla., Dec. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alico, Inc. (“Alico” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ALCO) announced on December 6, 2022 that although the Company had planned to be able to report its financial results for the period ended September 30, 2022 on December 6, 2022, the Company and its independent public accounting firm determined they need additional time to complete the audit of such financial results. 

The key item that is requiring such additional time involves evaluation of the proper amount of the Company’s Deferred Tax Liability, particularly certain portions of that Deferred Tax Liability arising in prior fiscal years, including those going back to fiscal year 2019 or possibly several years before fiscal year 2019.

Potential adjustments related to this portion of the Deferred Tax Liability, if required, would be a decrease in the Deferred Tax Liability and an increase in Retained Earnings for the prior period or an out of period adjustment increasing Net Income for fiscal year 2022.

Although it remains uncertain as to whether the time needed to complete the evaluation will require an extension of time to file the Company’s Form 10-K for its fiscal year 2022, the Company is optimistic that the evaluation will be completed early enough to be able to file before the applicable filing deadline.
