Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a) Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On March 6, 2024, GEE Group Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE MKT: JOB) approved the dismissal of its independent registered public accounting firm, FORVIS, LLP (“FORVIS”) from its engagement with the Company.  The decision to dismiss FORVIS as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company on March 6, 2024 and further ratified and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. On March 7, 2024, the Company notified FORVIS of its dismissal as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

 

FORVIS’ audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

 

There were no disagreements with FORVIS on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, from the time of FORVIS’ engagement up to the date of dismissal which disagreements that, if not resolved to FORVIS’ satisfaction, would have caused FORVIS to make reference in connection with its opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. No “reportable events”, as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A)-(D)of Regulation S-K occurred within the two fiscal years of the Company ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 and subsequently up to the date of its dismissal.

 

The Company provided FORVIS with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that FORVIS furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of FORVIS’ letter dated March 11, 2024, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.

 

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

 

On March 6, 2024, the Company approved the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP (“Cherry Bekaert”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, which appointment was effective immediately. The decision to appoint Cherry Bekaert as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company on March 6, 2024 and further ratified and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, and the subsequent interim periods through December 31, 2023, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has consulted with Cherry Bekaert 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 consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Cherry Bekaert 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.
