(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On April 23, 2021, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of BM Technologies, Inc. (formerly known as Megalith Financial Acquisition Corp.) (the “Company”), approved the engagement of BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, effective upon the signing of the engagement letter on April 29, 2021. On April 27, 2021 the Company dismissed WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
The reports of Withum on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 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 fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and through April 27, 2021, there have been no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) with Withum 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 Withum would have caused Withum to make reference thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years.
There were no reportable events (as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, or in the subsequent period through April 27, 2021.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is studying the effects of recent pronouncements of the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding accounting treatment of public and private warrants issued by special purpose acquisition companies that ultimately could result in a restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. No determination has been made by the Company at this time that its prior statements cannot be relied upon nor has Withum determined at this time that its prior audit opinions should not be relied upon. Either of those events, however, could occur depending upon the outcome of the analysis currently being undertaken by the Company. Should either of those events occur, appropriate disclosure will be made at that time.
The Company provided Withum with a copy of the disclosure it is making herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K, and requested that Withum furnish the Company with a copy of its letter addressed to the SEC, pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, stating whether or not Withum agrees with the statements related to them made by the Company in this report.
A copy of Withum’s letter to the SEC dated April 29, 2021 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
As disclosed above, on April 23, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the engagement of BDO as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, effective April 29, 2021.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and through April 29, 2021, 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 with respect to the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by BDO 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 the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
