Item 4.01.Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

(a) Dismissal of Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

 

Effective August 17, 2022, the audit committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the board of directors of Augmedix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), dismissed Frank, Rimerman + Co. LLP (“Frank Rimerman”) as its independent registered public accounting firm effective as of that date. The Company notified Frank Rimerman of its intention to take such action on August 17, 2022.

 

The audit reports of Frank Rimerman on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for each of the two fiscal years ending December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. In addition, during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, as well as during the subsequent interim period preceding August 17, 2022, there were no (i) “disagreements” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) between the Company and Frank Rimerman with respect to any matter relating to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Frank Rimerman, would have caused Frank Rimerman to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports on the Company’s financial statements with respect to such periods; or (ii) “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions).

 

The Company has provided Frank Rimerman with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Frank Rimerman provide the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) stating whether or not Frank Rimerman agrees with the above disclosures. A copy of Frank Rimerman’s letter dated August 22, 2022 is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.1.

        

(b) Appointment of New Certifying Accountant

 

On August 23, 2022, the Company engaged Grant Thornton LLP (“GT”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm upon the approval of the Audit Committee. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the subsequent interim period through August 23, 2022, the effective date of the Company’s engagement of GT, the Company did not consult with GT regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.
