Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
On May 20, 2024, the partners and professional staff of KMJ Corbin & Company LLP (“KMJ”), which was engaged as the independent registered public accounting firm of Immix Biopharma, Inc. (the “Company”), joined Crowe LLP (“Crowe”), a public accounting, consulting and technology firm. In connection with this transition, on July 17, 2024, the Company, through and with the approval of its Audit Committee, dismissed KMJ as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm, and appointed Crowe as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective July 17, 2024.
The reports of KMJ on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements between the Company and KMJ on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KMJ, would have caused KMJ to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. During the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through the date of resignation, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided KMJ with a copy of this report on Form 8-K in accordance with Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K prior to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and requested that KMJ furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agreed with the above statements and, if it did not agree, the respects in which it did not agree. A copy of the letter from KMJ is filed as Exhibit 16 hereto.
During the Company’s two most recently completed fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period through the date of appointment of Crowe, neither the Company nor anyone on behalf of the Company consulted with Crowe regarding (a) 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 consolidated financial statements as to which the Company received a written report or oral advice that was an important factor in reaching a decision on any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (b) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event as defined in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v), respectively, of Regulation S-K.
