ITEM 4.01. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On July 8, 2024, the Board of Directors of BioCorRx Inc. (the “Company” or “Registrant”) dismissed Marcum LLP (the “Former Accountant”) as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm. On July 8, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the engagement of M&K CPAS, PLLC (the “New Accountant”) to serve as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
The Former Accountant's reports on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 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, other than an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the period of the Former Accountant’s engagement and the interim period through July 8, 2024, there have been no disagreements with the Former Accountant (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) 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 the Former Accountant, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on financial statements for any period.
During the period of the Former Accountant’s engagement and through July 8, 2024, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
The Registrant requested that the Former Accountant furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of the letter furnished in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and the interim period through July 8, 2024, neither the Registrant nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with the New Accountant regarding either:
| · | 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 Registrant’s financial statements, and neither was a written report provided to the Registrant nor was oral advice provided that the New Accountant concluded was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or |
| | |
| · | Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event, as each term is defined in Items 304(a)(1)(iv) or (v) of Regulation S-K, respectively. |
