Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On October 13, 2015, the Company dismissed BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. On October 13, 2015, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors selected McGladrey LLP (“McGladrey”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
The audit report of BDO on the financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the year ended December 31, 2014 and the interim period through October 13, 2015, there were no disagreements with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, had it not been resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in its report on the financial statements of the Company for such period. During this time, there have been no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
The Company has provided BDO with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested that BDO furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not BDO agrees with the above statements regarding BDO. A copy of BDO’s letter dated October 14, 2015, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Prior to its appointment, the Company had not consulted with McGladrey with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or any other matter or reportable events listed in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
