Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) entered an order barring BF Borgers CPA PC (“Borgers”), the Company’s then independent registered public accounting firm, from appearing or practicing before the SEC as an accountant. As a result, Borgers could no longer act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and effective May 8, 2024, the Company dismissed Borgers as its independent registered public accounting firm and reported the dismissal in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 9, 2024.
Also effective on May 8, 2024, the Company engaged Bush & Associates CPA LLC (“Bush”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm and reported the engagement in the same Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 9, 2024.
Given the circumstances giving rise to Borgers’ dismissal, the Company asked Bush to re-audit its financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).
Subsequent thereto, on March 26, 2025, the board of directors of the Company, after discussion with Bush of the matters described above, concluded that the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, as previously included in the 2023 Form 10-K should no longer be relied upon. The Company and Bush determined that the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 would need to be restated. The Company worked expeditiously to conclude its analysis and complete any required restatement of its financial statements for the periods indicated as soon as practicable.
On June 2, 2025, the Company filed an amendment to the 2023 Form 10-K in order to give effect to the restated financial statements. In addition, these matters referred to above may represent a material weakness in the Company’s internal controls.
The Company’s management and board of directors have discussed the matters disclosed in this Item 4.02 with Bush, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
The information in this Item 4.02 is furnished solely pursuant to Item 4.02. Consequently, such information is not deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Moreover, the information in this Item 4.02 shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933.
