Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Changes in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On October 12, 2022, BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), the independent registered public accounting firm to U.S. Global Investors, Inc. (the "Company"), informed the Company of its decision to decline to stand for re-appointment for this role for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023, and that they would resign as our independent registered public accounting firm effective upon the filing of our Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Company is currently in the process of identifying a successor independent registered public accounting firm and will disclose its engagement of a new independent registered public accounting firm once the selection process has been completed, as required by the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The audit reports of BDO on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and through October 12, 2022, there were no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K with BDO 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 BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on the financial statements for such periods.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 and through October 12, 2022, there were no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided BDO with a copy of the disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). A copy of BDO’s letter, stating it agrees with the statements as set forth above, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
