Item 4.01Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a)    Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On December 13, 2017, Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”), and which action was ratified by the Board of Directors.

 

The audit reports of RBSM on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for each of the two most recent fiscal years, specifically the transition period ended December 31, 2016 and the full fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, 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 Company’s two most recent fiscal years, specifically the transition period ended December 31, 2016 and the full fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, and during the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2017 through December 13, 2017, (i) there were no disagreements with RBSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures that, if not resolved to RBSM’s satisfaction, would have caused RBSM to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company provided RBSM with a copy of the disclosures in this report prior to filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). A copy of RBSM’s letter dated December 18, 2017 addressed to the SEC, stating whether it agrees with the statements made in this report, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.

 

(b)    Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On December 16, 2017, the Audit Committee engaged BDO USA LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 30, 2017.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years, specifically the transition period ended December 31, 2016 and the full fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, and during the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2017 through December 16, 2017, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted BDO 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 on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO 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 a “reportable event, each as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v), respectively.

 

 

 

Item 8.01Other Events.

 

On December 19, 2017, the Company issued the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
