ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On June 30, 2014, KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) acquired certain assets of ROTHSTEIN-KASS, P.A. (d/b/a Rothstein Kass & Company, P.C.) and certain of its affiliates (“Rothstein Kass”), the independent registered public accounting firm for Vasomedical, Inc. (the “Company”). As a result of this transaction, Rothstein Kass effectively resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company.
The audit reports of Rothstein Kass on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 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 two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and through the subsequent interim period preceding Rothstein Kass’s resignation: (a) there were no disagreements between the Company and Rothstein Kass on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Rothstein Kass would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company’s financial statements for such years; and (b) there were no reportable events within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company has provided Rothstein Kass a copy of the disclosures in this Form 8-K and has requested that Rothstein Kass furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the Company’s statements herein. A copy of the letter dated July 7, 2014 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K
