ITEM 4.01—CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On September 5, 2013, FX Energy, Inc., dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PWC”), as its independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2013. The dismissal of PWC was approved unanimously by the Company’s Audit Committee.
The report of PWC on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, did not contain an adverse opinion or 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 and through September 5, 2013, there were no disagreements with PWC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PWC, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the consolidated financial statements for such years. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and through September 5, 2013, there have been no reportable events as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
On September 5, 2013, the Company’s Audit Committee unanimously approved the engagement of Grant Thornton, LLP, as its registered public accounting firm, to report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2013.
No consultations occurred between the Company and Grant Thornton during the two most recent fiscal years and through September 5, 2013, regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Grant Thornton concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of disagreement, as that term is defined in S-K 304(a)(1)(iv) and the related instructions to S-K 304, or a reportable event requiring disclosure under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
