Explanatory Note
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
The Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Airgain, Inc. (the “Company”) has completed a competitive process to review the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.
As a result of this process, effective May 2, 2022, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022, with such appointment to be effective immediately following the filing of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (“Q’1 Form 10-Q”). In connection with the appointment of Grant Thornton, management notified KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) that the auditor-client relationship will cease immediately upon filing of the Q’1 Form 10-Q.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, (i) there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to KPMG’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement; and (ii) there were no “reportable events” within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The audit reports of KPMG on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except as follows:
KPMG's report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, contained a separate paragraph stating that "As discussed in Notes 2 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for leases as of January 1, 2021 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases."
The Company has provided KPMG with a copy of the disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K and has requested that KPMG furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not KPMG agrees with the Company’s statements in this Item 4.01. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 hereto is a copy of KPMG’s letter.
In addition, during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither the Company, nor anyone on the Company’s behalf, consulted Grant Thornton with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of the audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and no written report or 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 any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of any “disagreement,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto, between the Company and KPMG, or a “reportable event,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are currently principal accountants for Airgain, Inc. and, under the date of March 21, 2022, we reported on the consolidated financial statements of Airgain, Inc. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. On May 2, 2022, we were notified that Airgain, Inc. engaged Grant Thornton as its principal accountant for the year ending December 31, 2022 and that the auditor-client relationship with KPMG LLP will cease upon the filing of the March 31, 2022 Form 10-Q. We have read Airgain, Inc.’s statements included under Item 4.01 of its Form 8-K dated May 2, 2022, and we agree with such statements, except that we are not in a position to agree or disagree with Airgain Inc.'s statements that the change was approved by the audit committee of the board of directors and that Grant Thornton was not engaged regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Airgain Inc.'s consolidated financial statements.
