SEC EXPERIENCE
Conyers Park Acquisition Corp
Firm commitment SPAC offering with Deutsche Bank seeking to raise $35,000,000. Each unit offered consisted of one share of Class A common stock and one-third of one warrant; each whole warrant entitled the owner to purchase one share of Class common stock at a price of $11.50 per share and only whole warrants were exercisable. Consistent with Commission guidance, Lahdan notified special counsel of the Affiliated Joint Acquisition component in this offering. Lahdan proposed 26 comments, 24 of 26 were approved without any changes by Lahdan's reviewer. During the second round, Lahdan noticed inconsistent disclosure and after issuing a final oral comment, counsel and the company determined that the statement was not material to the disclosure and removed it.
Liberty Broadband Corp
Lahdan spotted an investment company status issue and made a referral to the Division of Investment (IM), consistent with Commission policy. After IM drafted a comment and we discussed the issue, Lahdan presented it to her reviewer for approval and her comment was waived. Lahdan suggested that the comment be issued by referring to training and the procedure established by Division guidance. After the company’s response, IM proposed 3 additional comments which were issued. By inquiring into the strength of the assumptions behind Liberty’s determination that it does not meet the definition of an investment company under the 1940 Act, the Commission felt comfortable with the type of disclosure provided to investors on this issue.
Harman International Inc
Lahdan spotted a cybersecurity issue and worked with appropriate support offices to draft and issue a comment. Lahdan also spotted an accounting issue related to the presentation of non-GAAP measures. Before sending the draft comment letter to her reviewer for approval, Lahdan noticed an accounting comment that was going to be issued. That accounting comment was contrary to recent guidance published by the Office of Chief Accountant, specifically that the Division should not issue comments related to the COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission) Framework. As a result of Lahdan's observations, the accounting comment was not issued and the consistency of comments issued by the Division was improved.
