Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On June 20, 2014, MYOS Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice of resignation from Seligson & Giannattasio, LLP (“Seligson”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Seligson’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. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the subsequent period through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Seligson on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to Seligson’s satisfaction, would have caused Seligson to make reference in connection with Seligson’s opinion 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.
On June 20, 2014, the Company provided Seligson with a copy of the disclosures that the Company is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Current Report on Form 8-K, and requested that Seligson furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. The letter from Seligson, dated June 23, 2014, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
On June 20, 2014, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company approved the engagement of EisnerAmper LLP (“EisnerAmper”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted EisnerAmper 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 EisnerAmper 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.
