Item 4.01.Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On September 10, 2019, ParkerVision, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BDO USA LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Audit Committee”) participated in and approved the decision to change the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
BDO’s audit report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 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, except that BDO’s report for the year ended December 31, 2018 included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, and through the subsequent interim period through September 10, 2019, there were (i) no disagreements (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-k and the related instructions) between the Company and BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to BDO’s satisfaction, would have caused BDO to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such year, and (ii) no “reportable events” within the meaning if Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided BDO with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that BDO furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of BDO’s letter dated September 16, 2019, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
On September 10, 2019, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Moore Stephens Lovelace, P.A. (“MSL”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s year ended December 31, 2019, subject to completion of MSL’s standard client acceptance procedures and execution of an engagement letter. On September 16, 2019, MSL completed its procedures, accepted appointment as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the Audit Committee executed an engagement letter with MSL.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and through the subsequent interim period through September 10, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with MSL regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that MSL concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
