Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 17, 2013, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Progressive Care, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Berman & Co., P.A. (“Berman”), as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
Berman’s report on the financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except that the report contained a modification to the effect that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and through May 17, 2013, there were no disagreements with Berman 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 Berman, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the financial statements for such year. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided a copy of the above disclosures to Berman and requested Berman to provide it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Berman agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of Berman’s letter, dated May 24, 2013, confirming its agreement with the disclosures in this Item 4.01 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
(b) New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 17, 2013, the Board approved the engagement of Mallah Furman, Certified Public Accountants (“Mallah”), as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, and the subsequent interim period prior to the engagement of Mallah, the Company has not consulted Mallah regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v)) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v)).
