Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
On November 3, 2011, the Audit Committee of Giga-tronics Incorporated (the “Company”) approved the engagement of Crowe Horwath LLP (“Crowe”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm. Perry-Smith LLP (“Perry-Smith”) was the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm, and Perry-Smith resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm simultaneous with the engagement of Crowe by the Company. This change was a result of a transaction closed on November 1, 2011 whereby Crowe acquired certain assets of Perry-Smith and certain Perry-Smith personnel became
associated with Crowe.
Perry-Smith’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended March 26, 2011 and March 27, 2010 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended March 26, 2011 and March 27, 2010, and through November 3, 2011, there were no disagreements between the Company and Perry-Smith on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Perry-Smith, would have caused Perry-Smith to make reference to the matter in their report. None of the “reportable events” described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the SEC’s rules and regulations have occurred during the fiscal years ended March 26, 2011 and March 27, 2010 or through November 3, 2011.
The Company requested Perry-Smith to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether Perry-Smith agrees with the above statements. A copy of Perry-Smith’s letter, dated November 3, 2011 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
During the fiscal years ended March 26, 2011 and March 27, 2010 and through the date of this Form 8-K, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Crowe regarding (1) 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 Crowe did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with Perry-Smith on accounting principles
or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Perry-Smith, would have caused Perry-Smith to make reference to the matter in their report, or a “reportable event” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the SEC’s rules and regulations.
