On November 11, 2022, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Data Storage Corporation (the “Company”), following discussion by the audit committee of the board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) with the Company’s management, concluded that the following previously filed financial statements of the Company should not be relied upon:

The conclusion to prevent future reliance on the aforementioned financial statements resulted from the determination that the Q2 Report failed to properly account for the deferral of a $292,055 vendor credit in connection with a vendor contract. Specifically, the Company’s management identified an error in our accounting for certain consideration received from a vendor and determined that the Company failed to recognize the deferral of the credit to future periods in connection with the vendor contract, which requires an adjustment to the Company’s financial statements as of and for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022.

The Audit Committee discussed the matters described in this Item 4.02 with representatives of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman P.A.
