Item 4.01 Change in Registrants Certifying Accountant

 

Effective September 1, 2022, BioCorRx Inc.’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm, Friedman LLP (“Friedman”), combined with Marcum LLP.

 

On October 21, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the engagement of Marcum LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the year that will end on December 31, 2022.

 

The reports of Friedman on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 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, except as follows:

 

The audit reports for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 contained an explanatory paragraph disclosing the uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods preceding Friedman’s merger, there were:

 

(i) no disagreements with Friedman 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 Friedman, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company; and

 

(ii) no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

Friedman’s transition into Marcum has progressed and Friedman formally resigned on October 21, 2022, as our independent registered public accounting firm and the services previously provided by Friedman will now be provided by Marcum LLP.
