Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

Previous independent registered public accounting firm  

 

On March 22, 2019, FS KKR Capital Corp. (the “Company”) notified RSM US LLP (“RSM”) that RSM had been dismissed as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company approved the dismissal of RSM.

 

The reports of RSM on the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 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.  

 

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through March 22, 2019, there were: (i) no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions between the Company and RSM on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to RSM’s satisfaction, would have caused RSM to make reference thereto in their reports; and (ii) no “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company has requested that RSM furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of RSM’s letter, dated March 26, 2019, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.  

 

New independent registered public accounting firm  

 

On March 26, 2019, the Company engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. The decision to engage Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee.  

 

During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through March 26, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Deloitte 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 Deloitte 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.
