Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information included in Item 4.02 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On October 27, 2025, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of PEDEVCO Corp. (the “Company”), after discussion with the Company’s senior management and the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), which audited the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, concluded that the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, originally included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Prior Financial Statements”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2025, should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to an error in the accounting for the prior period net operating losses in the calculation of the tax provision for the impacted period (the “Error”). This Error resulted in an overstatement of the Company’s tax benefit and deferred income tax account during the impacted period.

Accordingly, investors should no longer rely upon the Company’s previously released Prior Financial Statements. In addition, investors should no longer rely upon earnings releases for these periods and other communications relating to these financial statements. The Error resulted in an overstatement of the Company’s tax benefit and deferred income tax account of approximately $5.5 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The Error did not have any impact on the Company’s cash position, cash flow, revenues or liquidity. The correction of the Error will result in a decrease in net income, income tax benefit, total assets, total shareholders’ equity, and total liabilities and shareholders’ equity for December 31, 2024 of approximately $5.5 million, and a decrease in earnings from $0.20 per basic and diluted common share to $0.14 per basic and diluted common share for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company’s Audit Committee has discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K with the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum, and the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm, Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P.

In connection with the Error, the Company’s management has identified additional material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024. The Company’s updated assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial r
