Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On November 19, 2019, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of RumbleOn, Inc. (the “Company”) engaged Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective November 19, 2019. Also, effective November 19, 2019, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company dismissed Scharf Pera & Co., PLLC (“Scharf Pera”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
Scharf Pera audited the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018. Scharf Pera's reports on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
In connection with Scharf Pera's audits of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018 and the subsequent interim period through November 19, 2019, there were (i) no “disagreements” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and Scharf Pera 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 Scharf Pera, would have caused Scharf Pera to make a reference to the subject matter thereof in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements for such years and (ii) no “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions).
The Company provided Scharf Pera a copy of this Form 8-K and requested that Scharf Pera provide the Company a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of such letter is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.
During the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018, and through the subsequent interim period as of November 19, 2019, neither the Company, nor any party on its behalf, consulted with Grant Thornton regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the Company’s financial statements, and no written reports or oral advice was provided to the Company by Grant Thornton that 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 (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or a reportable event (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
