Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Numerex Corp. (the “Company”) has completed a competitive process to review the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2016. As a result of this process, on April 5, 2016, the Audit Committee elected to engage BDO USA, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the subsequent interim period through April 5, 2016, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with BDO USA, LLP with respect to (i) 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 financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO USA, LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or “reportable event” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1) of Regulation S-K.
