Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 21, 2023, upon the completion of its selection process, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee"), of Central Valley Community Bancorp (the "Company") dismissed Crowe LLP ("Crowe") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
Crowe's audit reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2023 to June 21, 2023, (1) there were no disagreements (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and Crowe 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 Crowe, would have caused Crowe to make reference thereto in Crowe's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for such years, and (2) there were no reportable events (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided Crowe with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that Crowe furnish a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the foregoing disclosures. Crowe responded with a letter dated June 23, 2023, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
(b) Engagement of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On June 21, 2023, upon the completion of its comprehensive selection process, the Audit Committee appointed Moss Adams LLP ("Moss Adams") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and through June 21, 2023, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with Moss Adams regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific 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 Moss Adams concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any "reportable event" within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
