On August 18, 2023, SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) engaged EisnerAmper LLP (“EisnerAmper”) as the Company's independent public accounting firm to audit the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 and to review the Company's quarterly consolidated financial statements beginning with the third quarter of the 2023 fiscal year. The engagement of EisnerAmper was unanimously approved by each of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”).
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the subsequent interim period through June 30, 2023, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with EisnerAmper regarding: (i) 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 EisnerAmper 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 either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 31, 2023, on July 25, 2023, Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. (“MHM”) informed the Company and the Audit Committee that MHM would not stand for re-election as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
