SECTION 4 – MATTERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
On May 7, 2024, the Board of Directors of Specificity, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BF Borgers C.P.A. PC (“BF Borgers”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) announced that it had settled charges against Borgers that it failed to conduct audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). As part of the settlement, Borgers agreed to a permanent ban on appearing or practicing before the SEC. As a result of Borgers’ settlement with the SEC, the Company dismissed Borgers as its independent accountant.
The reports of BF Borgers on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, 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 other than an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and through the date of termination, May 7, 2024, there were no “disagreements” with BF Borgers 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 BF Borgers would have caused BF Borgers to make reference thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statement for such years. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and through May 7, 2024, there have been no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Registration S-K).
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has advised that, in lieu of obtaining a letter from BF Borgers stating whether or not it agrees with the statements herein, the Company may indicate that BF Borgers is not currently permitted to appear or practice before the SEC for reasons described in the SEC’s Order Instituting Public Administrative and Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 4C and 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 102(e) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice, Making Findings, and Imposing Remedial Sanctions and a Cease-and-Desist Order, dated May 3, 2024.
The Company has approved the engagement of CM3 Advisory (“CM3”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, which engagement was effective May 14, 2024. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the subsequent interim period to May 14, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with CM3 regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified 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 nor oral advice was provided to the Company that CM3 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 and the related instructions; or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
