JONES SODA CO. (JSDA): auditor change — Jones Soda dismisses Armanino, appoints BPB as new auditor after prior control restatement
JONES SODA CO.
- On July 14, 2023, Jones Soda dismissed Armanino LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm with Audit Committee approval.
- Same day, it appointed Berkowitz Pollack Brant Advisors + CPAs (BPB) as its new independent auditor.
- Armanino's reports for FY2022 and FY2021 were unqualified; no disagreements on accounting principles occurred.
- A reportable event: material weakness in controls over prepaid assets and short-term liabilities led to restatement of FY2021 and Q1/Q2 2022.
- Armanino furnished a letter agreeing with the Company's statements, filed as Exhibit 16.1.
