Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 12, 2020, MoSys, Inc. (the “Company”), following an evaluation of audit fees and costs, chose not to renew the engagement of BPM LLP (“BPM”), which was then serving as its independent registered public accounting firm. The Company notified BPM on May 13, 2020 that it would be dismissed as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. The decision to change independent registered public accounting firms was approved by the Company’s audit committee.
BPM’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 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 Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and the subsequent interim period through May 13, 2020, there were no disagreements, within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act (“Regulation S-K”) and the related instructions thereto, with BPM 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 BPM, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports. Also during this same period, there were no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto.
The Company provided BPM with the disclosures under this Item 4.01(a), and requested that BPM furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Item 4.01(a) and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of BPM’s letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
(b) Appointment of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 12, 2020, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. (“Weinberg”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, effective upon the dismissal of BPM. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the subsequent interim period through May 13, 2020, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with Weinberg regarding any of the matters described in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
