Item 4.01.Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Energous Corporation (the “Company”) conducted a process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. As a result of this process, on April 11, 2024, the Committee appointed BPM LLP (“BPM”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. Also on April 11, 2024, the Company, with the approval of the Committee, dismissed Marcum LLP (“Marcum”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

 

The reports of Marcum on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and in the subsequent interim period through April 11, 2024, there were (i) no “disagreements” (within the meaning of Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K) 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 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).

 

The Company provided Marcum with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Marcum provide the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Marcum agrees with the above statements. A copy of Marcum’s letter, dated April 15, 2024, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and in the subsequent interim period through April 11, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted BPM regarding either: (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 no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that BPM concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a “disagreement” or “reportable event” (within the meaning of Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, respectively).

 

In approving the selection of BPM as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Committee considered all relevant factors, including any non-audit services previously provided by BPM to the Company.
