ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
| (a) | Dismissal of Assurance Dimension |
On July 21, 2020, the Board of Directors of DirectView Holdings, Inc. (the “Registrant” or the ‘Company”) dismissed Assurance Dimensions (“AD”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.
The report of AD on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. The report did include an explanatory paragraph about the uncertainty as to the Registrant’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the period of AD’s engagement as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm through July 21, 2020 (the “Engagement Period”), there were no disagreements as defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K with AD 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 AD, would have caused it to make reference in connection with any opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. Further, during the Engagement Period, there were no reportable events (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Registrant has provided AD with a copy of this Report prior to its filing with the SEC and requested AD to furnish the Registrant with a letter addressed to the SEC, stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made above. A copy of AD’s letter dated July 21, 2020, confirming its agreement with the disclosures in this Item 401 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
| (b) | Engagement of MaloneBailey, LLP (“MaloneBailey”) |
On July 21, 2020, the Board of Directors appointed MaloneBailey, LLP (“MaloneBailey”), an independent registered public accounting firm which is registered with, and governed by the rules of, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, as our independent registered public accounting firm. During our two most recent fiscal years through December 31, 2018, neither us nor anyone on our behalf consulted MaloneBailey regarding either (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction regarding us, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (2) any matter regarding us that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
