Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On August 10, 2017, the Board of Directors of 1847 Holdings LLC (the “Company”) accepted the resignation of KLJ & Associates, LLP (“KLJ”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of such date. Effective as of August 10, 2017, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“Sadler”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

 

During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation (August 10, 2017), there were no “disagreements,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, with KLJ 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 KLJ, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report. None of the “reportable events” set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurred during the period in which KLJ served as the Company’s principal independent accountants. None of KLJ’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016 contained an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and none were qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

 

In accordance with Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company provided KLJ with a copy of this disclosure and requested that KLJ furnish it with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether KLJ agrees with the above statements, and if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of KLJ’s letter dated as of August 11, 2017, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.

 

During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, and the subsequent interim period through August 10, 2017, the Company has not consulted with Sadler 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 Sadler 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; or (ii) the subject of any “disagreement,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a “reportable event” within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
