• GlobalSCAPE’s total stockholder equity and total liabilities and stockholders’ equity were overstated by $217,000 and $292,000, respectively;
   
• GlobalSCAPE lacked adequate internal controls over financial reporting; and
   
• that as a result, GlobalSCAPE’s publicly disseminated financial statements were materially false and misleading.

On August 7, 2017, after trading had closed, Global disclosed that its audit committee has been "conducting an  investigation ”into certain transactions in the fourth quarter of 2016" and that the Company "intends to effect a restatement of its previously issued financial statements through filing an amended Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017."
