Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
BK Technologies, Corporation (the “Company”) was notified that MSL P.A. (“MSL”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, entered into a transaction with Forvis Mazars, LLP (“Forvis Mazars”) whereby substantially all of the shareholders and employees of MSL became partners and employees of Forvis Mazars. As a result, effective as of November 1, 2024, MSL resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has appointed Forvis Mazars to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective as of November 1, 2024.
During the past two fiscal years and through December 31, 2023, there were no adverse opinions or disclaimer of opinion issued by MSL, and none of MSL’s reports on the financial statements for either of the past two years contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or were qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding MSL’s resignation, there were no disagreements with MSL 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 MSL, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its report.
During the past two fiscal years and through December 31, 2023, and the subsequent periods through the date of this report, the Company did not consult with Forvis Mazars regarding any of the matters set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided MSL a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K and requested, in accordance with applicable practices, that MSL furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not MSL agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of the letter stating that MSL agrees with the statements made herein, dated November 6, 2024, is attached as Exhibit 16.1.
