Workhorse Group auditor Grant Thornton declines reappointment; material weaknesses noted
Workhorse Group Inc.
- Grant Thornton notified Workhorse on Dec 3, 2024 it will not stand for reappointment as independent auditor for FY2024.
- No disagreements on accounting principles or audit scope during 2022-2024; 2023 report included going-concern emphasis.
- Two material weaknesses: insufficient control precision on fair value of convertible note/warrant liability, and understaffed finance team due to cost cuts.
- No new independent auditor has been engaged as of filing date; company will disclose appointment in future Form 8-K.
