Change in Accounting Firm

On May 3, 2023, as approved by our Audit Committee, the Company dismissed Plante Moran as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, Plante Moran’s audit reports on the Company’s financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that Plante Moran’s report for the year ended December 31, 2022 included an explanatory paragraph indicating that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and through the date of Plante Moran’s dismissal, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Plante Moran on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to Plante Moran’s satisfaction, would have caused Plante Moran to make reference in connection with Plante Moran’s report to the subject matter of the disagreement; and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as the term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except for the disclosure of material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The Audit Committee approved the engagement of Moss Adams as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, which engagement was effective as of May 3, 2023. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and through the date of their engagement, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Moss Adams with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, nor the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company nor oral advice provided that Moss Adams 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 the subject of a disagreement or a “reportable event” as described in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v), respectively, of Regulation S-K.

Pre-Approval Policy

It is the Audit Committee’s policy to approve in advance the types and amounts of audit, audit-related, tax, and any other services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. In situations where it is not practicable to obtain full Audit Committee approval, the Audit Committee has delegated authority to the Chair of the Audit Committee to grant pre-approval of auditing, audit-related, tax, and all other services up to $100,000. Any pre-approved decisions by the Chair are required to be reviewed with the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee approved 100% of all services provided by Moss Adams during 2023 and 2022.
