On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) entered an order instituting settled administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against BF Borgers and its sole audit partner, Benjamin F. Borgers CPA, permanently barring Mr. Borgers and BF Borgers from appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant (the “Order”). As a result of the Order, BF Borgers may no longer serve as our independent registered public accounting firm, nor can BF Borgers issue any audit reports included in Commission filings or provide consents with respect to audit reports. In light of the Order, on May 6, 2024, we terminated the engagement of BF Borgers as our independent registered accounting firm.
We will not be able to timely file our Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 because we have not yet been able to retain a new independent registered public accounting firm to complete a review of the Form 10-Q.
