| Item 4.01. | Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant |
On August 24, 2021, EKIMAS Corporation (the “Company”), based on the decision of the Board of Directors, dismissed RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and recommended, and approved, the engagement of Liggett & Webb P.A. (“Liggett & Webb”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective August 26, 2021, for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021.
The reports of RBSM on the financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles except that the audit reports on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and the subsequent interim period from April 1, 2020 to the date of this report, and in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements for such periods, there were no disagreements between the Company and RBSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of RBSM, would have caused RBSM to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its audit reports on the Company’s financial statements.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and the subsequent interim period from April 1, 2020 to the date of this report, there were no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and the subsequent interim period from April 1, 2020 to the date of this report, the Company did not consult with Liggett & Webb regarding any of the matters set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided RBSM with a copy of the disclosures in this report and has requested that RBSM furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not RBSM agrees with the statements in this Item 4.01. A copy of this letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.
