(a)
Dismissal of Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
.
On June 18, 2020, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Comstock Holding Companies, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed BDO USA, LLP ("BDO") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm effective as of June 18, 2020.
The audit reports of BDO on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and the subsequent interim period through June 18, 2020, (i) there were no disagreements with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure that, if not resolved to BDO's satisfaction, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the Company's financial statements for such years or any subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, and (ii) there were no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except that the Company's management identified material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting involving (x) the review and reconciliation of debt balances and amortization of related debt discounts, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, (y) the accounting and reporting of various complex divestment transactions entered into in the second quarter of 2019 relating to the winding down of the Company's for-sale homebuilding operations, as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, and (z) insufficient finance and accounting department resources with appropriate knowledge, expertise and training commensurate with the Company's corporate structure and financial reporting requirements to effectively assess risk and design, operate and oversee internal controls over financial reporting, as of March 31, 2018. The material weakness identified in item (y) above was remediated prior to the Company's Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2020 and the material weakness identified in item (z) above was remediated prior to the Company's Form 10-Q filed on August 14, 2018. A further description of the material weaknesses and management's plans of remediation can be found in the following reports filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"): (1) Form 10-Q filed on May 28, 2020, (2) Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2020, (3) Form 10-Q filed on November 14, 2019, (4) Form 10-Q filed on August 19, 2019, and (5) Form 10-Q filed on May 16, 2018.
The Company has provided BDO with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to its filing with SEC, and requested that BDO furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not BDO agrees with the statements made above. A copy of BDO's letter, dated June 24, 2020, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
