Form 8-K
Filed November 14, 2024
File No. 001-40927
Dear Andri Carpenter:
This letter sets forth the
response of Zeo Energy Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comment of the Staff (the “Staff”)
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in your letter, dated November 25, 2024, with
respect to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on November 14, 2024 (the “8-K”).
In this letter, we have recited
the comment from the Staff in bold type and have followed it with the Company’s response.
Form 8-K filed on November 14, 2024
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements
or a Related Audit Report
or Completed Interim Review, page 1
You disclosed that your company’s audited financial statements, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation and unaudited pro forma combined financial information for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 included in the company’s Form 8-K, as filed with SEC on March 20, 2024, as amended on March 25, 2024 and August 19, 2024, (ii) your company’s unaudited interim financial statements for three months ended March 31, 2024 included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, as filed with the SEC on August 19, 2024, (iii) your company’s unaudited interim financial statements for three and six months ended June 30, 2024 included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as filed with the SEC on August 19, 2024 (iv) the financial statements noted in items (i) through (iii) above included in the company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 1, 2024, should no longer be relied upon. You also stated that your company’s management have discussed with Grant Thornton LLP, the company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Please file an amendment to this report to include a letter from your independent registered public accountant as Exhibit 7 under 4.02(c) of Form 8-K. Refer to Item 601(b)(7) of Regulation S-K.
Response:
We
acknowledge the Staff’s comment, and respectfully note that the Company filed the 8-K pursuant to Item 4.02(a) of Form 8-K. As
noted in the first sentence of the 8-K, the Company’s Audit Committee, after discussions with management, alone concluded that a
restatement of the Company’s previously filed financial statements was needed. As noted in the 8-K, the Company’s management
did discuss the finding with Grant Thornton LLP (“GT”), the company’s independent registered public accountant, but
no notice or advisement under Item 4.02(b) of Form 8-K was received from GT, and the Company has confirmed GT’s agreement
that the determination was made pursuant to Item 4.02(a) of Form 8-K. In light of the foregoing, the Company could not have reasonably
concluded that it was (and does not believe that it is) required to file the 8-K under Item 4.02(b) of Form 8-K.
Should you have any questions
relating to any of the foregoing, please contact our counsel, Adam Berkaw, Esq. by telephone at (212) 370-1300.
Sincerely,
Zeo Energy Corp.
