Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On
April 1, 2016, the Audit Committee (the
"Audit Committee") of the Board of Directors of Intersections Inc. (the
"Company") completed a competitive process to review the appointment of
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the 2016 fiscal year. As a result of this process and following careful deliberation, on
April 1, 2016, the Audit Committee notified Deloitte & Touche LLP (
"Deloitte") that it had determined to dismiss Deloitte as
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of that same date. On and effective as of
April 1, 2016,
the
Company selected RSM US LLP (
"RSM") as
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, subject to RSM's completion of its standard client acceptance procedures.
Deloitte's audit reports on
the Company's financial statements for the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During
the Company's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, (i) there were no disagreements with Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Deloitte's satisfaction, would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their reports on
the Company's financial statements
for such years; and (ii) there were no reportable events, within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided Deloitte with a copy of the disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K and has requested that Deloitte furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Deloitte agrees with the statements related to them made by
the Company in this report. A letter from Deloitte is attached as
Exhibit 16.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
During
the Company's two most recent fiscal years and through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither
the Company, nor any party on
the Company's behalf, consulted RSM with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of the audit opinion that might be rendered on
the Company's financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to
the Company that RSM concluded was an important factor considered by
the
Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was subject to any disagreement, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto, or a reportable event within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
