Item 4.01Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Notice of Dismissal of Current Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for Fiscal 2022

The Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”): (i) on September 26, 2022, determined to dismiss BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm, and (ii) on September 30, 2022, engaged Baker Tilly US, LLP (“Baker Tilly”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

Reports of Current Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm during Applicable Period

BDO’s reports on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that each of BDO’s reports contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the subsequent interim periods through September 26, 2022, there were no disagreements (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to BDO’s satisfaction, would have caused BDO to make reference thereto in its reports. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the subsequent interim periods through September 26, 2022, there were no “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

No Reportable Consultations with New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the subsequent interim periods through September 26, 2022, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Baker Tilly regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Baker Tilly concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions); or (iii) any reportable event (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

Other Matters

The Company requested that BDO furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of BDO’s letter, dated September 30, 2022, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
