Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On December 23, 2015, Blue Calypso, Inc. (the “Company”), after review and recommendation of the Company’s Audit Committee, appointed Liggett, Vogt & Webb, P.A. (“LVW”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm for and with respect to the year ending December 31, 2015, and dismissed Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) from that role.
The reports of Marcum on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of an opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the report contained an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this report, there were: (i) no disagreements with Marcum 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 Marcum, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company; and (ii) no “reportable events” (as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except certain material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as discussed in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
The Company has provided Marcum with a copy of this Form 8-K prior to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and requested Marcum to furnish to the Company a letter addressed to the SEC stating that it agrees with the statements made above. A copy of Marcum's letter, dated December 30, 2015, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
During the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years and through the date of the Company’s engagement of LVW, the Company did not consult with LVW regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and no written or oral advice was provided by LVW that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event, as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
