Item 4.01Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

On July 8, 2019, CohnReznick LLP informed the Company of its intention to resign as the independent registered public accounting firm of Technical Communications Corporation (the “Company”) effective at the conclusion of the third quarter interim review for the period ended June 29, 2019.

 

The report of CohnReznick LLP on the Company’s financial statements for the past fiscal year did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that the report disclosed an uncertainty that raised substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year and through July 8, 2019, there have been no disagreements between the Company and CohnReznick LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CohnReznick LLP, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreement in connection with its report on the financial statements for such period.

 

During the Company’s most recent fiscal year and through July 8, 2019, there have been no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) with CohnReznick LLP.

 

The Company provided CohnReznick LLP with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that CohnReznick LLP furnish it with a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter from CohnReznick LLP is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
