On June 13, 2016 (the “Dismissal Date”), Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company recommended and approved the dismissal of BDO.

The reports of BDO on the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 and through the Dismissal Date, there were no disagreements with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for such years. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and through the Dismissal Date, there were no “reportable events” as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except for the material weakness reported on the Company’s annual report on Form 10-k for the year-ended December 31, 2014 and the material weakness reported on the Company’s quarterly report for the quarter-ended March 31, 2014.

The Company provided BDO with a copy of the disclosures it is making herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K, and requested that BDO furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, stating whether or not it agrees with the statements related to BDO made by the Company in this report. A copy of BDO’s letter to the SEC dated June 13, 2016 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.

Also, on June 13, 2016, the Audit Committee recommended and approved the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and through the Dismissal Date, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted PwC regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, and no written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that PwC concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
