| Item 4.01 | Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant |
The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Tile Shop Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) conducted a competitive selection process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The Committee invited several public accounting firms to participate in this process, including Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
As a result of this process, following the review and evaluation of proposals from participating firms, on May 25, 2023, the Committee engaged the appointment of RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2024. On the same date, the Committee approved the dismissal of E&Y as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company has authorized E&Y to respond fully to the inquiries of the successor auditors.
During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, and the subsequent interim period through May 25, 2023, there were: (i) no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K between the Company and E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to E&Y’s satisfaction, would have caused E&Y 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 audit reports of E&Y on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The Company provided E&Y with a copy of the foregoing disclosures and requested that E&Y furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of the letter furnished pursuant to that request is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and during the subsequent interim period through May 25, 2023, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with RSM US LLP 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 RSM US LLP 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.
