Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On June 16, 2021, Bluegreen Vacations Holding Corporation (the “Company”), upon the approval of the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors, dismissed Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as its independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.
The audit reports of Grant Thornton on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and they were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the interim period from January 1, 2021 through June 16, 2021: (i) the Company had no disagreements with Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to Grant Thornton’s satisfaction, would have caused Grant Thornton to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports; and (ii) there were no “reportable events,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the interim period from January 1, 2021 through June 16, 2021, the Company did not consult with EY regarding: (i) either the application of accounting principles to a specified 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 EY concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of either a “disagreement,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a “reportable event,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided Grant Thornton with a copy of the disclosures contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K and has requested that Grant Thornton furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Grant Thornton agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Current Report on Form 8-K and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of Grant Thornton’s letter, dated June 21, 2021, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
